Anyone else think Thermo Fisher Scientific and PPD acquisition seems a bit weird? Unclear how the orgs fit together

CRO aligns really well with an expansive lab / instrumentation group looking to broaden reach, particularly for NGS, companion Dx, and novel test development.

Also a lot of synergies in their international footprint, and PPD has a lot of inroads with biotech and provider networks from some acquisitions they've made over the past few years... just those assets alone probably save Thermo 1-2B a year from having in house rather than outsourcing (previously to PPD and others)

Thanks!! And no not at all, always great to learn more

As someone in the industry... no. Makes a lot of sense. Most people are not aware of just how diversified thermo is.. they are the premium integrated life sciences powerhouse, with really only Danaher as competition

Why? They bought some big cdmo’s previously. Now they’re just forward integrating.

It’s an extremely good fit in my opinion, which I think will lead to minimal job losses. They’ve done well

Thermo grows through acquisition. The acquisition supports some other business ecosystems
