Philips expands emergency healthcare offering with acquisition of InnerCool Therapies; a leader in body temperature management

Wednesday, July 15, 2009

Amsterdam, the Netherlands and San Diego, USA – Royal Philips (AEX: PHI, NYSE: PHG) announced today that it has reached an agreement to acquire the assets of InnerCool Therapies Inc., a pioneer in the field of therapeutic hypothermia, which involves the management of a patient’s body temperature. InnerCool, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cardium Therapeutics, Inc. (NYSE Amex: CXM), will be acquired in an asset purchase transaction for US $11.25 million, as well as the transfer of approximately US $1.5 million in trade payables. The transaction will reinforce Philips’ leadership position in the emergency care market by adding body temperature management solutions to its existing product offering in this field.

“This acquisition is another example of our continuous strategy to focus on a patient’s cycle of care.” said Steve Rusckowski, chief executive officer of Philips Healthcare. “With InnerCool, Philips is acquiring a true innovator in the field of temperature management. This will allow us to broaden our offering in emergency care now, and also enable us to provide leadership in promising future applications such as acute myocardial infarction and stroke, which could further preserve heart and brain tissue.”

Therapeutic hypothermia solutions aim to safely induce, maintain and reverse hypothermia or maintain normal body temperature, to preserve organs such as the heart and brain in the event of Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA). This rapidly-advancing technology has been recognized by the American Heart Association and the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation as crucial in improving the survival and neurological recovery for SCA patients.

InnerCool Therapies will position Philips for continued growth in the cardiology care cycle by enhancing its industry-leading emergency care solutions offered globally. Today this includes comprehensive patient monitoring, clinical decision support tools, defibrillation therapy, CPR measurement and feedback and medical consumables. Philips expects to see continued growth in emergency care as medical systems and hospitals invest in innovative technologies which can significantly impact the outcome for patients who experience life-threatening emergencies.

With this acquisition, Philips becomes the only company that offers a comprehensive suite of both surface (external) and endovascular (internal) body temperature management solutions in a market currently experiencing double digit growth. More than 10 years of extensive research and development by InnerCool will also provide Philips with a rich patent portfolio and pipeline of future products. Headquartered in San Diego, California, InnerCool Therapies was founded in 1998 and will be integrated into Philips’ Clinical Care Systems business.

Philips adds to portfolio of intelligent light and energy management solutions

Amsterdam, the Netherlands and Manchester, NH, USA Royal Philips Electronics (AEX: PHI, NYSE: PHG) announced today that it has acquired Teletrol Systems Inc., a leading supplier of integrated solutions for simultaneous multi-site management of lighting and energy usage. The Teletrol product portfolio will strengthen Philips’ range of sophisticated control solutions for institutional customers, including the seamless, networked management of lighting and environment facilities, including heating and air conditioning. Financial details of this agreement were not disclosed.

“Professional customers, such as retail chains, hotel groups and building owners with multiple premises, increasingly demand better control over their lighting and energy use,” said Rudy Provoost, Chief Executive Officer of Philips Lighting. “They also want to provide comfortable environments for their employees, guests and residents, while at the same time keeping operational and energy costs to a minimum. This acquisition will add significantly to the solutions we offer those customers to meet these needs.”

Founded in 1985, Teletrol, based in Manchester, New Hampshire in the United States, has built up a leading position in software and hardware-based energy management systems and controls, with installations in more than 10,000 commercial and retail sites around the world. The company employs 37 employees, and has posted double-digit sales growth in recent years, a performance level which is expected to continue in years to come as it leverages Philips’ existing global distribution channels.

Teletrol’s operations will be incorporated into the Lighting Electronics group of the Philips Lighting sector. The addition of Teletrol builds upon a program of strategic acquisitions by Philips to expand the range of complete solutions it can offer across the lighting value chain. Earlier this year Philips acquired the Australian lighting controls company Dynalite, while growing its capabilities in architectural and entertainment lighting solutions with the acquisitions of Ilti Luce in Italy, and Selecon of New Zealand.
