Lifeway Foods, Inc. announced on September 18, 2025, that Danone North America PBC has withdrawn its proposal to acquire Lifeway. This decision follows a period of extensive engagement between the two companies, including a confidentiality agreement entered on August 1, 2025.
Danone is now exploring other options for its investment in Lifeway, which could include selling all or part of its stake or retaining its full investment. This withdrawal removes the immediate prospect of an acquisition for Lifeway shareholders.
Lifeway stated it remains firmly committed to driving value for shareholders by executing its strategic plan and continuing to explore value-enhancing opportunities. The company highlighted its record-breaking sales in both Q1 and Q2 2025 and continued momentum into Q3 as evidence of its strong standalone growth strategy.
