Eurobio scientific signs definitive agreement to acquire CareDx’s transplant Lab Product division EUROBIO SCIENTIFIC SIGNS DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE CAREDX’s TRANSPLANT LAB PRODUCT DIVISION

Acquisition of CareDx’s ‘lab products’ portfolio creates new opportunities for growth and innovation in the fast growing transplant diagnostics market

Paris, April 16, 2026 ,8 AM EST

Eurobio Scientific (FR0013240934, ALERS, PEA-PME eligible), a leading French group in in-vitro medical diagnostics for transplantation, oncology and infectious diseases, today announces that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the Lab Products division of CareDx, a US global precision medicine company focused on transplantation.

Through the acquisition of CareDx’s Lab Products division, the transaction brings together two highly complementary portfolios in human leukocyte antigen (“HLA)” typing and transplantation diagnostics. It combines Eurobio Scientific affiliate GenDx’s expertise in next-generation sequencing (“NGS”) assays, software and global commercial footprint, with CareDx’s portfolio of HLA-typing and transplant monitoring kits as well as its market leading customer service.

Strategic Rationale

This acquisition enables GenDx to offer a more comprehensive portfolio across the transplantation IVD workflow, from pre-transplant HLA typing to post-transplant monitoring solutions. The combined entity will offer an expanded portfolio of molecular assays, reagents, and software, with the aim of enabling laboratories to streamline operations and improve clinical outcomes.

The integration of CareDx’s LabProducts division strengthens GenDx’s presence in key markets, including the United States, Europe and Asia-Pacific, while enhancing its ability to serve both research and clinical laboratories.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Under the terms of the agreement, Eurobio Scientific will acquire CareDx’s Lab Products business in cash for an equivalent of €145 million ($170 million), subject to customary adjustments.
