Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TDY">TDY</a>) ("Teledyne") and Varex Imaging Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VREX">VREX</a>) ("Varex") jointly announced today that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Teledyne will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Varex for $18.90 per share payable in cash. The aggregate value for the transaction is approximately $1.1 billion, taking into account Varex’s equity awards and net debt as of April 3, 2026. The transaction was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of Teledyne and Varex.


For decades, Varex has pioneered the development of X-ray sources and digital X-ray detectors, and also provides high-voltage interconnects and imaging software to global OEM manufacturers. Varex’s X-ray tubes, flat panel and photon counting detectors, and connect and control accessories are used in medical diagnostic imaging, non-destructive inspection, security and vehicle inspection systems, and analysis and measurement applications.


"Teledyne entered the healthcare market with the acquisition of Teledyne DALSA in 2011, which was beginning to develop low-dose, high-resolution CMOS-based X-ray detectors. Nearly ten years ago, we expanded our presence with the acquisition of Teledyne e2v in 2017, a long-term supplier of magnetrons to cancer radiotherapy OEMs. Nevertheless, while Teledyne and Varex serve similar customers with related technologies, our products are uniquely complementary with minimal overlap," said Robert Mehrabian, Executive Chairman of Teledyne. "For example, while Teledyne produces X-ray detectors, we do not provide detectors suited for high-radiation environments such as oncology, as does Varex. In addition, only Varex provides new advanced photon counting detectors for healthcare and industrial inspection. Finally, while Teledyne produces various vacuum electronics, like magnetrons, we have never produced X-ray tubes for radiography, fluoroscopy or computed tomography applications."


Sunny Sanyal, President, Chief Executive Officer and Director of Varex, commented, "Joining Teledyne marks an exciting new chapter for Varex. This transaction provides a substantial premium for our shareholders and exciting opportunities for our customers and employees across the medical and industrial markets we serve. Our X-ray technologies fit naturally alongside Teledyne&#39;s product portfolio, and its resources will help us accelerate adoption of our advanced imaging solutions, and development of the next generation of products."


This transaction is anticipated to be completed in early 2027 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and Varex’s stockholder approval.
