Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. announced today that it has priced a $2.5 billion aggregate principal amount of USD‑denominated senior notes, with the offering expected to close on or about October 7, 2025. The notes will be underwritten by J.P. Morgan Securities, ING Financial Markets, Mizuho Securities, and Scotia Capital, and will pay interest on a semi‑annual basis.
The company stated that the proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including the acquisition of companies or businesses, repayment and refinancing of debt, working capital and capital expenditures, or the repurchase of outstanding equity securities. This flexible use of funds positions Thermo Fisher to support growth initiatives, strengthen its balance sheet, and potentially fund strategic acquisitions.
By securing this sizable debt facility, Thermo Fisher gains additional financial flexibility to pursue opportunities in its core life‑sciences and diagnostics markets while maintaining liquidity for ongoing operations and capital investments. The announcement reflects a proactive approach to capital deployment and underscores the company’s commitment to sustaining shareholder value through disciplined financial management.
