Richmond, Virginia-based global healthcare products distributor Owens & Minor on Oct. 12 announced several executive leadership team changes, as well as preliminary financial figures for 2022's third-quarter.

Richmond, Virginia-based Owens & Minor Inc. (NYSE: OMI), has agreed to acquire Apria for $37.50 in cash per share of common stock, an equity value of approximately $1.45 billion, Owens & Minor announced.

Owens & Minor incorporates product manufacturing, distribution support and innovative technology services.

In addition, this transaction diversifies our total company revenue stream by expanding our presence in the higher-growth home healthcare market.”

The company said the acquisition “builds upon Owens & Minor’s strong capabilities in product manufacturing and healthcare services.”
