For the year ended December 31, 2025, Organon reported revenue of $6.2 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $1.9 billion. The company had debt of $8.6 billion and cash of $574 million at year-end.



The combined entity would generate approximately $12.4 billion in revenue and operate in 150 countries with 18 markets each generating over $100 million in revenues, according to the companies' statement.



"This transaction represents a significant opportunity for Sun Pharma to build on its vision of Reaching People and Touching Lives," said Dilip Shanghvi, Executive Chairman of Sun Pharma.
