Siemens Healthineers AG is launching a capital increase of
roughly 2.3 billion euros ($2.73 billion) and already has demand
from an investor for 16% to 17% of the targeted offer.
The German medical-equipment maker said Wednesday that the new
shares will be offered to institutional investors only, in a
private placement via an accelerated bookbuilding process. The
number of new shares and the placement price will be announced once
the accelerated bookbuilding process is completed.
The company has already received demand from an anchor investor
for 16% to 17% of the targeted emission at current market price, it
said.
The funds raised through the capital increase will be used to
replace part of a loan related to the acquisition of Varian Medical
Systems Inc.
"Beyond this capital increase, the Siemens Healthineers managing
board does not plan any further placement of shares for the
financing of the planned acquisition of Varian Medical Systems," it
said.
