• Expected closing: on or about April 7, 2026, subject to satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions.
• Buyer parties: affiliates of funds managed by Blackstone Inc. and TPG Global, LLC; merger governed by the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated October 21, 2025 (with Hopper Parent Inc. and Hopper Merger Sub Inc.).

• The filing includes a forward-looking statements caution and notes risks including possible termination of the merger agreement, timing/closing condition risks, potential disruption to operations, litigation risk, and that holders of the CVRs may receive less-than-anticipated payments.

Why It Matters
This filing confirms regulatory clearance and an imminent closing date for the sale of Hologic, which will move the company under private ownership by Blackstone/TPG and triggers an immediate leadership change. For investors, the key takeaways are the near-term timing of the transaction, the contingent retirement of the CEO at closing, and the list of risks called out by the company (including potential impacts on operations, litigation, and CVR payments). Because the closing remains subject to customary conditions, stakeholders should monitor Hologic’s investor filings and official press releases for any updates.
