Investor Update summary
25 Dec, 2025Strategic divestment and business transformation
Agreement to sell Diabetes Care business to TecMed AG for up to CHF 420 million, including an earn-out, with closing expected in H2 2025 pending regulatory approvals.
Sale includes Ypsomed Diabetes Care AG, subsidiaries, patch pump development, and related rights, and is part of a four-year transformation to become a pure-play injection system specialist.
TecMed, owned by Willy Michel, was selected after a structured auction process, with an independent appraisal confirming the fairness of the CHF 420 million price.
Majority of proceeds (75%+) will be used to expand the core delivery system business, with no special dividend planned.
Rothschild & Co and Walder Wyss advised Ypsomed; IFBC provided a fairness opinion.
Transaction structure and financial implications
Purchase price includes an earn-out of less than CHF 100 million, tied solely to future sales over a period not exceeding three years.
Ypsomed will continue contract manufacturing for TecMed for infusion sets and pump parts for three to five years, generating up to CHF 40 million in revenue.
Proceeds from the sale (~CHF 300 million in cash) will fully fund near-term CapEx, with no need for additional equity and only potential for future debt.
Core business EBIT margins are historically above 30%, with strong profitability expected to continue.
Proceeds will fund expansion of Ypsomed's injection system business, focusing on subcutaneous self-injection solutions.
Operational and regional impact
About 200 employees will transfer from Solothurn to Burgdorf, with new office space acquired by TecMed.
The combined diabetes care business under TecMed will be headquartered in Burgdorf, with about 300 employees.
Solothurn site will be expanded for manufacturing and logistics, with significant investments planned, including new production halls, a tool shop, and a conference centre.
Burgdorf will see an influx of over 300 employees, strengthening the local footprint and benefiting the region.
Ypsomed’s headquarters will remain in Burgdorf, with only a small team relocating to TecMed.
