Integer Holdings said it received early termination of the Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period for its pending sale to KKR, removing one regulatory hurdle in the planned deal.

The agreement, announced Aug. 3, calls for an affiliate of KKR to buy all outstanding Integer shares for $127 in cash apiece. The transaction values the company at about $5.7 billion in enterprise value.

Integer said it still needs stockholder approval and the completion or waiver of other regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions before the deal can close. The company continues to expect the transaction to be completed by the end of 2026.

The company set a virtual special meeting of stockholders for Oct. 21, 2026, at 9:00 a.m. Central time. Stockholders of record as of Sept. 8, 2026, are eligible to vote. Integer’s board unanimously recommended voting in favor of the merger agreement and related proposals. The market has reacted to these announcements by moving the company's shares -0.04% to a price of $126.33. For more information, read the company's full 8-K submission here.
