The acquisition includes ALLY Robotic Cataract Laser Treatment System, LENSAR's proprietary Streamline software technology and LENSAR legacy laser system, building Alcon's femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) offering.

Under the terms of the agreement, Alcon will purchase all outstanding shares of LENSAR for $14.00 per share in cash or an aggregate implied value of approximately $356 million, with an additional non-tradeable contingent value right offering up to $2.75 per share in cash, conditioned on achievement of 614,000 cumulative procedures with LENSAR's products between January 1, 2026, and December 31, 2027.

The transaction represents a total consideration of up to approximately $430 million. The total potential consideration of $16.75 per share represents a premium of 24% to LENSAR's 30-day VWAP and a premium of 47% to LENSAR's 90-day VWAP, assuming the milestone is met.
