On January 9, 2026, subsequent to the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2026, we acquired Vivasure Medical Limited (“Vivasure”) for gross upfront consideration of $116.4 million, with $60.7 million paid in cash at closing after giving effect to the value of certain prior investments and loans made by us to Vivasure, as well as other customary closing adjustments. The definitive agreement between the parties also provides for up to $98.9 million of additional contingent consideration based on sales growth and the achievement of certain other milestones, also subject to adjustment based on the value of certain prior investments and loans. We financed this transaction through available cash on hand.

Previous wording
Net revenues decreased 5.3% and 4.8% during the three and six months ended September 27, 2025, respectively, as compared with the same periods of fiscal 2025. Revenue decreases in Plasma and Blood Center, primarily driven by the previously announced customer transition of CSL Plasma and the divestiture of the Whole Blood product line in fiscal 2025, drove the overall decrease in net revenues.

Our principal operations are in the United States, Europe, Japan and other parts of Asia. We market and sell our products in approximately 96 countries through a combination of our direct sales force and independent distributors. During the three and six months ended September 27, 2025, our revenue generated outside the U.S. was 26.6% and 25.6%, respectively, of total net revenues, as compared with 25.9% during both the three and six months ended September 28, 2024. International sales are generally conducted in local currencies, primarily Japanese Yen, Euro and Chinese Yuan.
