By GlobalDataTE Connectivity chairman and CEO Tom Lynch said: "Creganna’s products are used in life-saving medical treatments and surgical procedures where the highest levels of quality, reliability and performance are essential.
"Combining Creganna with TE’s existing medical business establishes TE as a leader in the attractive minimally-invasive interventional segment of the medical device market.
"TE now has the most complete product and capability offering in the industry, and is a fully integrated strategic supplier to major OEMs."
The acquired business section of Creganna will be inducted as a part of TE’s industrial solutions segment.
TE’s existing manpower of 7,000 product development engineers assigned to the medical segment will gain more than 225 product development engineers after the acquisition.
TE’s adjusted earnings per share is expected to be augmented by $0.03 in the first full fiscal year and will subsequently boost TE’s revenue growth and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation margins.
Morgan Stanley served as TE’s financial advisor and the outside counsel was Davis Polk and Wardwell during the acquisition.
