Emergent BioSolutions Finalizes Sale of Travel Health Business to Bavarian Nordic

GAITHERSBURG, Md., May 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Emergent BioSolutions (NYSE: EBS) today announced it has completed the sale of its travel health business to Bavarian Nordic (OMX: BAVA). At closing Emergent received $270 million, subject to customary closing adjustments, and may receive up to an additional $110 million in potential future milestone payments.

With the transaction closed, Bavarian Nordic has acquired the rights to Vivotif®, the licensed typhoid vaccine, and Vaxchora®, the licensed cholera vaccine, as well as the development-stage chikungunya vaccine candidate CHIKV VLP. Bavarian Nordic also acquired manufacturing facilities in Bern, Switzerland, and development facilities in San Diego, California. The majority of Emergent employees supporting these products and facilities are joining Bavarian Nordic.   

“This deal achieves two significant outcomes key to our mission and future success,” said Robert G. Kramer, Emergent president and chief executive officer. “It allows us to further sharpen our focus on our core products and contract manufacturing services businesses while continuing to deliver these important vaccines to patients and customers who need them.”

For Emergent BioSolutions, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC served as financial advisor, and Barnes & Thornburg LLP served as legal counsel for this transaction.
