BARRANQUILLA, Colombia–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Procaps Group, a leading integrated international healthcare and pharmaceutical company, and Union Acquisition Corp. II (NASDAQ: LATN, LATNU, LATNW) (“LATN”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, have completed the previously announced business combination which was approved at an Extraordinary General Meeting of LATN’s shareholders on September 22, 2021.

Beginning on September 30, 2021, Procaps Group’s ordinary shares and warrants will trade on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbols “PROC” and “PROCW” respectively.

The current Procaps management team, including Founder, Chairman and CEO Ruben Minski, will continue to lead Procaps Group and President Dr. Camilo Camacho and Global CFO Patricio Vargas will help to spearhead Procaps Group’s organic growth strategy in its B2B and B2C segments, while the vision and experience of the Chairman of the M&A Committee, Alejandro Weinstein, will support Procaps Group’s inorganic growth strategy, particularly in Latin America.

This transaction values Procaps at approximately $1.1 billion with approximately $160 million in gross cash proceeds. The proceeds are expected to fund organic growth through capacity expansion, plant improvements, working capital investments, e-Health platform improvements and R&D expenses, as well as inorganic growth via accretive acquisitions. The overall net proceeds available to Procaps Group has been increased as a result of IFC agreeing to reduce the amount of proceeds being used to redeem its shares from a previously anticipated redemption amount of $60 million to $45 million.

“We believe that today’s milestone combined with our strong first half 2021 financial results will help accelerate the delivery of our innovative pharmaceutical solutions and drive new expansion initiatives that we believe will enable us to take a significant share of the approximate $58 billion pharmaceutical market in Latin America,” said Ruben Minski, Procaps Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Procaps today is one of the fastest growing companies in Latin America by product sales revenue with a 19% year-over-year market penetration growth in the 13 markets in which we operate and with a 50% cumulative growth in the Colombian market. We are at an inflection point and the $160 million in new capital now positions us to execute a multi-prong growth strategy that we expect will deliver double-digit growth in our core markets with strong cash generation to the bottom line.

“Moreover, this business combination will further enable our significant focus on a strategic roll-up strategy and consolidation in the region that we believe will drive an accelerated competitive position and value creation. Combined with our ramp-up of new product launches, continued roll-out of products into new geographic areas and measured improvements to our inventory rotations, we are confident we can achieve our global growth objectives. In this next phase of our development, we expect to see growth from both our existing portfolio and product pipeline, with an estimate of over 600 product launches in the next three years. As well, our global expansion strategy and growth in new markets continues to be one of our primary focuses, with on-going efforts to expand our footprint of successful products outside of Colombia. The board of Procaps would like to thank the team at LATN and its group of investors for the successful completion of the business combination.”

Kyle P. Bransfield, CEO of Union Acquisition Corp. ll added, “We congratulate Procaps on today’s accomplishment and look forward to their continued evolution as one of the most important players within the Latin American pharmaceutical market. We are confident Procaps will provide shareholders with a diversified investment alternative that supports today’s healthcare needs and accomplishes this utilizing a sustainable footprint that we believe will deliver long-term value. We look forward to collaborating with Procaps Group as they strategically position the company to achieve its growth objectives.”
