I am pleased<br>to announce that Leica Biosystems is acquiring Aperio. Aperio began as a<br>start-up business 12 years ago and today has grown into the leader of<br>ePathology solutions. By integrating with Leica Biosystems, we will improve our<br>global reach and provide the broadest portfolio of pathology solutions to serve<br>this growing and changing market.<\/span><\/p><p><span>At Aperio, we believe pathology plays a vital<br>role in patient care and research, with an ever-increasing importance due to<br>advances in diagnostic testing, more targeted drug therapy options, and<br>advances in personalized medicine. Leica Biosystems shares that belief.<\/span><\/p><p><span>Leica Biosystems&rsquo; goal is to provide solutions<br>that meet all your anatomical pathology needs and help advance cancer<br>diagnostics. They are represented in over 100 countries, with manufacturing<br>facilities in 7 countries, sales and service organizations in 19 countries, and<br>an international network of dealers. Leica Biosystems provides end-to-end<br>solutions that help customers improve workflow efficiency and diagnostic<br>confidence.<\/span><\/p><p><span>Leica Biosystems is acquiring Aperio because of<br>our leadership in ePathology solutions, our great products, and our dedicated<br>team. We believe that together we can advance our product portfolio more<br>effectively, expand our global reach, and continue to improve our customer<br>service. The Aperio ePathology solutions are complementary to Leica&rsquo;s own broad<br>portfolio of pathology solutions. The integrated business will enhance both<br>solutions going forward. For the foreseeable future we expect business to<br>remain as usual.<\/span><\/p><p><span>The transaction is subject to various closing<br>conditions, including customary regulatory approvals, and we will continue to<br>operate independently until the closing.<\/span><\/p><p><span><a href=\"mailto:dave.schlotterbeck@aperio.com?subject=Important%20Announcement%20from%20Aperio\">Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any<br>questions<\/a>.
