(NYSE\/TSX: BHC) (&#8220;Bausch Health&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;) today announced that it plans to pursue an initial public offering (IPO) of its Solta Medical business\u00a0(&#8220;Solta&#8221;). Solta is a leading global provider in medical aesthetics\u00a0with innovative and effective skin rejuvenation and body contouring solutions, including the Thermage\u00ae RF systems, Fraxel\u00ae laser, Clear + Brilliant\u00ae laser and VASER\u00ae ultrasonic systems. <\/p>\n<p>Pursuing an IPO of the Solta business is intended to achieve two important objectives for Bausch Health:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Enable the Company to pay down debt, which is an important step in the previously announced spinoff of the Bausch + Lomb eye health business from Bausch Pharma<sup>1<\/sup>, and <\/li>\n<li>Unlock the value of this high-growth business and give Bausch Pharma ownership of a valuable financial asset that would compare more favorably to other medical aesthetic companies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The timing of the anticipated IPO, which will be tied to certain conditions and approvals and the Company&#8217;s completion of several important actions, is anticipated to occur in the fourth quarter of 2021 or first half of 2022, subject to market conditions. <\/p>\n<p>Solta, which is currently reported as part of the Ortho Dermatologics segment, had 2020 revenues of <span class=\"xn-money\">$253 million<\/span> and a revenue CAGR<sup>2<\/sup>\u00a0of 32% (2017-2020). <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Scott A. Hirsch Appointed CEO of Solta Medical<br \/><\/b><br \/>\n        <span class=\"xn-person\">Scott A. Hirsch<\/span> has been appointed chief executive officer of Solta<sup>3<\/sup>\u00a0by the Board of Bausch Health. Mr. Hirsch joined Bausch Health in 2016 and currently serves as president, Ortho Dermatologics and OraPharma and as Chief Strategy Officer. He joined Bausch Health from Citadel Investment Group, where he oversaw equity investments and risk management decisions within the Health Care sector at Surveyor Capital.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. <span class=\"xn-person\">Paul S. Herendeen<\/span> will serve as chairman of Solta effective upon the IPO. Mr. Herendeen joined Bausch Health as executive vice president and Chief Financial Officer in 2016 and served in that capacity until <span class=\"xn-chron\">June 2021<\/span> when he was appointed Advisor to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. <\/p>\n<p>As the process commences, the Company will provide additional information on the remainder of the future management team and Board of Directors.<\/p>\n<p>As a publicly traded company, Solta will be domiciled in <span class=\"xn-location\">Canada<\/span> and is intended to be listed and trade on the Nasdaq stock exchange. <\/p>\n<p>Bausch Health will need to take several steps to facilitate the IPO. There are several important internal and external considerations, approvals and conditions that will drive the ultimate timing and structure of any transaction, including, but not limited to, consideration of one-time costs; capital market conditions; determination of the pro forma capitalization of Solta; finalization of employment terms with certain key personnel; and compliance with\u00a0U.S.\u00a0securities laws and stock exchange rules. Many of these considerations, approvals and conditions will be influenced by and\/or be dependent on the specific structure that is ultimately selected.<\/p>\n<p>Davis, Polk &amp; Wardwell in\u00a0the <span class=\"xn-location\">United States<\/span> and\u00a0Osler, Hoskin &amp; Harcourt in\u00a0Canada\u00a0are acting as lead legal counsels.<\/p>\n<p>This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About Solta Medical <br \/><\/b>Solta Medical, part of the Ortho Dermatologics business of Bausch Health Companies Inc., is a leading global provider in medical aesthetics\u00a0that provides innovative and effective skin rejuvenation and body contouring solutions.
