Bausch Health Announces Intention to Spin Off Eye Health Business Into Independent Publicly Traded Company

Bausch Health announced that it intends to spin off its leading eye health business into an independent publicly traded entity from the remainder of Bausch Health.

The spinoff will establish two separate companies that include:

  • A fully integrated, pure play eye-health company built on the iconic Bausch + Lomb brand and long history of innovation; and
  • A diversified pharmaceutical company with leading positions in gastroenterology, aesthetics/dermatology, neurology and international pharmaceuticals.

The benefits of separating these attractive, but disparate businesses include improved strategic focus and enhanced financial transparency to better enable stakeholders to value each business independently. The timing of the anticipated spinoff will be tied to certain conditions and approvals, and the Company’s completion of several important actions, including the reorganization of the reporting segments, which we expect to begin reporting in the first quarter of 2021.
