Exhibit 99.1
Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. To Sell Three Brands To Moberg Pharma AB
Prestige To Release First Quarter Fiscal 2017 Results on August 4th
Tarrytown, NY, June 30, 2016—Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. (NYSE-PBH) (the “Company” or “Prestige”) announced today that it has entered into an agreement for the sale of three of its non-core over-the-counter healthcare products to Moberg Pharma AB (OMX: MOB) of Stockholm, Sweden for $40.0 million USD in cash.
The transaction includes New Skin®, PediaCare® and Fiber Choice®, which in fiscal 2016 represented approximately $25 million USD in revenues for Prestige, or 3% of Company sales in fiscal 2016.
These divestitures will enable the Company to move closer to its stated goal of having a portfolio consisting of 85% of its revenue from “invest for growth” brands and 15% in “manage for cash” brands to help support long-term organic growth.
The Company plans to use proceeds from the divestiture to pay down debt and accelerate de-leveraging. The transaction is expected to close during Prestige’s fiscal second quarter, which begins on July 1, 2016, subject to closing conditions.
Sawaya Segalas & Co., LLC is acting as exclusive financial advisor to Prestige in this transaction.
First Quarter Fiscal 2017
The Company expects to provide an update on this transaction when it reports the results of the first quarter of fiscal 2017 on August 4, 2016 before the opening of the market. The Company will provide a live conference call to review the results at 8:30AM ET that same morning. Callers within North America may dial 877-784-9650 to access the call. The conference ID is 43058034. International callers may dial 530-379-4717 using the same conference ID. Replays will be available for two weeks following the conclusion of the call; 855-859-2056 for North America and 404-537-3406 for international callers using conference ID 43058034.
