It is part of the DePuy Family of Companies, which has a rich heritage of pioneering a broad range of products and solutions across the continuum of orthopaedic and neurological care.

Cavendish has been advising Finsbury for several years, commencing with a consulting exercise focusing on mapping the route to a successful exit and culminating in a highly targeted sale exercise involving the world’s leading major orthopaedic players, based primarily in Europe and the USA.

Hugo Haddon-Grant , the Cavendish partner who led the sale, commented:

“We are delighted to announce the successful sale of Finsbury Orthopaedics in what are challenging market conditions. The outcome proves the huge potential of the product portfolio built up by Finsbury as well as the ability of Cavendish to manage a highly competitive sale process with multinational buyers and to deliver value today for future potential. We are confident that DePuy will provide the best platform for the successful development and marketing of Finsbury’s world class portfolio of products going forward.”
