Mindray (Shenzhen, China) has agreed to acquire a 75% equity interest in DiaSys Diagnostic Systems GmbH (Holzheim, Germany) through its Dutch subsidiary for an all-cash preliminary purchase price of approximately EUR 115 million with the final amount to be determined as of closing. The agreement is slated to be finalized later this year, pending regulatory approvals and the granting of regulatory approvals. Upon finalizing the transaction, Mindray will hold a 75% stake in DiaSys and consolidate DiaSys and its subsidiaries. DiaSys's wide range of clinical chemistry systems, manufacturing capabilities for controls and calibrators, and a global network of manufacturing and distribution sites synergize fully complement Mindray's extensive hematology and immunoassays product range, creating a plethora of market opportunities.

Recognized globally, DiaSys has over 30 years of experience in the in-vitro diagnostics (IVD) field with production facilities spread across Europe, APAC, and Latin America. Mindray intends to utilize DiaSys's international team of professionals and global supply platforms to expedite the construction of overseas supply chains, aiming for further expansion into global medium to large volume customer segments and delivering more timely and comprehensive professional services to clients. Moreover, DiaSys's vast experience in clinical chemistry is anticipated to bring synergistic value to Mindray's IVD business. DiaSys’s expertise in developing and producing IVD controls and calibrators will complement Mindray’s IVD product line and enhance its system performance.

“We are very pleased to see this collaboration come to fruition, as Mindray’s and DiaSys’ businesses strongly complement each other,” said Wu Hao, President of Mindray. “Through this acquisition, Mindray will effectively improve its overseas supply chain platform and support the penetration of our IVD business in the medium to large customer segments. We look forward to both parties jointly realizing synergies and creating greater value for our customers.”

“DiaSys with its comprehensive range of products and global manufacturing footprints, and Mindray with its total IVD solutions and worldwide network, are ideal partners for lifting synergies in the IVD field,” added Dr. Günther Gorka, DiaSys’s Founder. “The individual strengths of both partners will support each other and help for a common and sustainable success in all regions of the world.”
