PendraCare develops and manufactures cardiology catheter solutions and provides design and contract manufacturing services for global medical technology companies. With this acquisition, Poly Medicure will gain an immediate presence in Europe and the United States, two of the most regulated healthcare markets, while also strengthening its cardiology portfolio.

The Dutch group’s products are registered with European MDR and MDD regulators, as well as the US Food and Drug Administration, ANVISA in Brazil, CFDA in China, and KFDA in South Korea, among others. Its European manufacturing base enables localised production and distribution, while the company has built long-term relationships with global med-tech OEMs.

Poly Medicure said it expects the acquisition to provide a platform for scaling its cardiology business globally, supported by regulatory approvals, established customer relationships, and complementary product lines. The company projects annual synergies of €3–4 million over the next three to four years, driven by integration of R&D and manufacturing capabilities, expansion of distribution networks, and new product launches in Europe.

For FY 2024, PendraCare reported revenue of €9.9 million, gross profit of €7.3 million, EBITDA of €1.4 million and profit before tax of €801,000. The agreed valuation reflects EV-to-revenue and EV-to-EBITDA multiples of 1.83 and 13 respectively.

Commenting on the transaction, Himanshu Baid, Managing Director, Poly Medicure Limited, said, “This move brings us a valuable, ‘made-in-Europe’ cardiology consumables business with FDA and CE-marked products and long-term relationships with global OEMs. By combining Pendracare Group’s European presence and customer relationships with Polymed’s strong engineering, R&D, manufacturing and distribution capabilities, we will deliver significant synergies for the combined business.” 

“Most importantly, it deepens our presence in Europe – a key market for Polymed. This acquisition helps in furthering our vision of ‘Serving people through innovative healthcare solutions’,” he said.
