Becton Dickinson Acquisition of Bard

In December 2017, Bard became a wholly owned subsidiary of Becton Dickinson and Company (NYSE: BDX) upon the completion of BD’s acquisition of Bard, creating a new health care industry leader with approximately $16 billion in annualized revenue.

BD and Bard set forth the following strategic rationale for joining together:

• The combination of BD and Bard creates a highly differentiated medical technology company focused on delivering innovative healthcare solutions to improve clinical and economic outcomes.
• This transaction will create new opportunities to build on BD’s leadership position in medication management and infection prevention with an expanded offering of solutions across the care continuum.
• Bard’s strong product portfolio and innovation pipeline increases BD’s opportunities in fast-growing clinical areas, including peripheral vascular therapy, oncology, and bio-surgery.
• BD’s leading global capabilities and infrastructure will further accelerate the combined company’s growth outside of the U.S., creating more opportunities for patients and clinicians around the world to benefit from BD’s and Bard’s product technology.
• The financially compelling combination of BD and Bard is immediately accretive – and expected to generate high single-digit accretion to adjusted earnings per share in fiscal year 2019 – and is expected to create meaningful long-term value for shareholders

BD Interventional is now a segment within BD comprised of the CR Bard portfolio. The Interventional segment develops, manufactures and markets, life-enhancing medical technologies in the fields of vascular, urology, oncology and surgical specialties. BD Interventional markets its products and services worldwide to hospitals, individual health care professionals, extended-care facilities, alternate-site facilities, and now direct-to-consumer. BD Interventional has expanded beyond its more traditional product categories in recent years by investing in new, high-growth areas that allow it to leverage its core strengths. Examples include targeted temperature management, biosurgery, drug-coated balloons and home care urological products. BD Interventional business units include: Surgery, Urology and Critical Care, and Peripheral Intervention.
