Owens & Minor Inc.: Entering Europe “Looking ahead to 2012, we believe we are well-positioned to support our healthcare customers, both providers and suppliers, as they navigate the course set by a changing industry. We have the teammates, the expertise, and the vision to serve the complex healthcare sector. But, as we serve this market, we will not stray from the values that have defined our company for 130 years. We will keep our eye on what’s next, but never lose sight of what matters.” Craig R. Smith President and CEO, Owens & Minor, Inc. Owens & Minor is the leading distributor of medical and surgical supplies to the acute-care market in the United States and a leading provider of healthcare supply chain management solutions. In September 2012, Owens & Minor completed acquisition from Celesio AG in Germany of the Movianto Group, which specializes in third-party logistics for the pharmaceutical and medical device industries in Europe. When the acquisition was announced Craig Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer, announced: “The intended acquisition of Movianto provides Owens & Minor with a premier European healthcare logistics franchise, enabling us to significantly expand our existing third-party logistics and scale….Our manufacturer partners have increasingly expressed interest in working with Owens & Minor on a global basis, and Movianto provides us with an exceptional platform from which to serve them. Owens & Minor looks forward to working with the Movianto and Celesio teams to serve customers and create long-term value.” 1 Celesio announced that the sale of Movianto, which had been part of the Celesio group since 2004, was in line with a strategic realignment. Celesio is in the process of paring back its business in order to increase its focus on its core pharmaceutical wholesale and pharmacies business which accounted for more than 95% of the group business.2 Markus Pinger, Chief Executive Officer of Celesio, is overhauling the company, including selling units that are not part of the main business, after the company cut profit forecasts twice last year due to increased regulation and competition in Europe.3 He said: “We are about to sell Movianto more swiftly than originally planned. We can combine this with the opportunity to pursue partnerships with Owens & Minor, a leading U.S. company. We are implementing our new strategy with great consequence and step by step. The decision to sell is mainly driven by the buyer’s reputation for quality and integrity, thus defending the best interest of the Movianto employees. With Owens & Minor, we have found a potential investor who will drive Movianto’s successful development, offering new prospects. This will be an all-round positive solution for all parties Professor Coombs and Kimberly Esser prepared this case solely as a basis for class discussion and not as an endorsement, a source of primary data, or a illustration of effective or ineffective management.

Page 1 concerned.”4 Owens & Minor plans to integrate the two businesses, while keeping the Movianto teams and logistics centers located across Europe intact.5 Celesio and Owens & Minor will explore mutually beneficial projects in distribution and logistics in the healthcare markets.6 For Owens & Minor, the acquisition of Movianto enables the company to enter the European market with a broad and fully functioning third-party logistics platform. Owens & Minor will assume customer relationships, the logistics centers and the 1,800 team members across the network of 23 facilities in 11 European countries, including the United Kingdom, Germany, and France. Owens & Minor’s U.S.-based third-party logistics service and Movianto, share highly complementary services such as warehousing, transportation, cold chain logistics, as well as value-added services such as order-to-cash, repackaging and relabeling of products. Movianto served pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturer customers globally from 23 logistics centers in 11 European countries with approximately 1,800 teammates, providing warehousing, transportation, and cold chain logistics, as well as value-added services such as order-to-cash, repackaging and relabeling of products. The acquisition was funded by available cash and is expected to dilute earnings per share in 2012, be neutral in 2013 and accretive hereafter.7 With the acquisition of Movianto Owens & Minor will add a large pharmaceutical distribution business to its current medical/surgical product business. While the Movianto Group acquisition provides Owens & Minor an opportunity to lift its operation to a global scale, there will be many challenges: Integrating the Owens & Minor structure, culture, and values with the employees and organization of the Movianto Group, managing enterprises in different geographies and time zones, conducting business across borders in Europe, dealing with different government regulations, exchange rates and health care delivery systems. Healthcare logistics differ between countries within the European Union and differ from the distribution industry found in the United States. Mr. Smith and James L. Bierman, Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer consider what they will find, what they will need to bring or build, and how the firm should organize itself in the European market to grow the Movianto distribution business.

USC Marshall School of Business, University of Southern California, February 2013. Page 2 from origin of product to patient bedside.8 For the first 110 years, the company provided pharmaceutical, and medical and surgical supplies to drugstores and hospitals throughout selected areas of the United States. In 1992, the company made a decision to sell their wholesale drug business and focus entirely on the medical/surgical marketplace. Through the strategic acquisitions of other medical-surgical distributors over the decades, Owens & Minor gained national strength and stature to become the industry leader they are today. Currently, the company’s 4,800 (US) teammates in 51 distribution centers and the home office serve 4,500 hospitals, integrated healthcare systems, alternate care locations, and the federal government with a comprehensive offering of medical and surgical products. The majority of the company’s sales are consumable goods, such as disposable gloves, dressings, endoscopic products, needles and syringes, sterile procedure trays, surgical products and gloves, and urological and wound closure products. Owens & Minor has established a great reputation for providing superior, world-class service and continually strives to exceed their customers’ expectations.9 In 2010 Owens & Minor was recognized as the leading firm in the U.S. supply chain management industry. Celesio Group (Stuttgart, Germany) Celesio is a leading international trade, logistics and services company working in the pharmaceutical and healthcare sector that proactively and preventively ensures that patients receive optimum care and support.

    Foreign Takeovers in the Nordic Countries 2. Impacts of foreign takeovers in the Nordic countries - what do the company case studies tell us? A report produced by NIFU STEP, ITPS, VTT, DTU and RANNIS Published by NIFU STEP, Oslo, January 2005 Financed by Impacts of Foreign Takeovers in the Nordic Countries - what do the company case studies tell us? Juha Oksanen & Nina Rilla (eds.), VTT Technology Studies ii Published by NIFU STEP Studies in Innovation, Research and Education Hammersborg torg 3 0179 Oslo January 2005 www.nifustep.no © NIFU STEP and its FOTON partners 2005 Cover photo © Photos.com The main objectives of FOTON are to study how foreign takeovers of firms in the Nordic countries affect local innovation capabilities and how this issue is approached by policy makers. FOTON is made up of three modules: The first module is a statistical exercise providing an overall picture of foreign industrial ownership in the Nordic countries. A quantitative analysis of the effects of foreign ownership on firms’ innovation performance is presented in FOTON report No. 3: Corporate Innovation Activities - Does Ownership Matter? Report No. 1 has a short overview of available statistics. The second module consists of case studies of Nordic firms that have been taken over by foreign companies. To allow for inter-Nordic comparisons, takeovers within two specific industries have been selected: Pharmaceuticals and ICT. The main focus of the case studies is on how the takeovers have affected innovation capabilities, not only in the acquired firms but also – through these firms’ linkages to local actors – in the surrounding innovation systems.
