Johnson & Johnson Makes Massive $13.1B Shockwave Acquisition!
Johnson & Johnson is set to acquire Shockwave Medical Inc. for around $13.1 billion, marking a significant move in expanding its footprint in the medical device arena, particularly in heart disease treatment. Under the deal, J&J will pay $335 per share in cash for the Santa Clara-based company.
Shockwave Medical specializes in intravascular lithotripsy, a technique that employs sound waves to dissolve calcification in peripheral circulation and heart veins. Through this acquisition, J&J aims to position itself as a leader in four rapidly growing cardiovascular technology sectors.
The transaction, expected to be completed by mid-year, will be funded through a combination of cash reserves and borrowing. J&J anticipates a slight dilution of shares by approximately $0.10 in 2024 and $0.17 the following year.
