Integer Holdings Corporation (NYSE: ITGR), a leading medical device contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), today announced it has entered into an agreement to divest its Electrochem business, which focuses on non-medical applications for the energy, military and environmental sectors, to Ultralife Corporation (NASDAQ: ULBI). Ultralife is acquiring Electrochem for $50 million in cash, subject to customary working capital adjustments, and the transaction is expected to close by the end of October.

“The divestiture of our non-medical business is another example of Integer managing our portfolio to accomplish our strategic financial objectives,” said Joe Dziedzic, Integer’s president & CEO. “Following the transaction, Integer will be a pure-play medical business with additional cash to pay down debt and execute our inorganic growth strategy. Ultralife is an ideal buyer for Electrochem because they are a leader in providing critical power solutions to a variety of industries that include energy, defense, and environmental markets.”

Going forward, Integer will report the results of its Electrochem business, currently included in its “Non-Medical” segment, as part of discontinued operations. This will include any gain or loss recognized on the sale of the business. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the sale to pay down outstanding debt and for general corporate purposes.

In the 2024 full year guidance provided as part of our second quarter 2024 earnings release, we assumed the following in relation to our non-medical segment, adjusted to include $3 million of allocated interest expense as part of discontinued operations:

  • Sales of $36 million.
  • GAAP operating income of $3 million. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income of $4 million.
  • Adjusted EBITDA of $5 million.
  • GAAP net income of $0 million. Non-GAAP adjusted net income of $1 million.
  • GAAP diluted EPS of $0.00. Non-GAAP adjusted EPS of $0.02.

We expect this transaction to be neutral to EPS.

Please see “Notes Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information” and “2024 Outlook” in our earnings release for the second quarter of 2024, dated July 25, 2024 for additional information regarding our use of the non-GAAP financial measures set forth above.
