- Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSIC) announced it is buying Condor Dental. These are the details.
Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSIC), the world’s largest provider of health care solutions to office-based dental and medical practitioners, announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to buy Condor Dental Research Company SA (Condor Dental), a privately held dental distribution company that serves dental general practitioners, specialists, and laboratories in Switzerland.
Since 2004, Henry Schein served the Swiss dental implant market through Camlog Biotechnologies GmbH, a member of the Global Oral Reconstruction Group, a Basel-based division of Henry Schein, and a global leader in dental implants, biomaterials, and oral reconstruction. Plus the addition of Condor Dental will expand Henry Schein’s entry into the Swiss market for its dental distribution business.
Condor Dental is based in Vouvry, Switzerland and was established in 1978. And the sales for 2021 were approximately $18 million, the majority of which were from dental consumable merchandise with further revenue from the customization of dental practices and dental laboratory installations. After the transaction closes, Condor Dental will join Henry Schein’s International Distribution Group, and the business will continue to be led by Yves Mailliard, Condor’s Chief Operating Officer.
Henry Schein will acquire Condor Dental from MCCB Holding Sarl, a health care holding company that is wholly owned by the Libon family. And this deal is expected to be neutral to Henry Schein’s 2022 diluted earnings per share and to be accretive thereafter. Financial terms were not disclosed.
