Kimberly-Clark filed a Form 10 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the planned transaction, Governor Nathan Deal’s Office said. Halyard Health will be a publicly traded health care company with approximately $1.7 billion in annual net sales and leading market positions in both surgical and infection prevention products and medical devices.
“Georgia’s health care industry is uniquely poised to support Halyard Health,” Deal said. “This company is taking advantage of an eager, skilled workforce and an advanced life science and healthcare ecosystem. Special thanks to Kimberly-Clark for the major role it is playing in Georgia’s economic development and for supporting our state’s ever-changing health care industry – an industry that we are committed to growing.”
“As we embark as a new company, Halyard Health will draw on a rich heritage of leadership from Kimberly-Clark in infection prevention, surgical protection, respiratory health, digestive health and pain management,” said Robert E. Abernathy, future Chairman/CEO of Halyard Health. “We are proud to remain strongly rooted in north Fulton and look forward to growing and investing in Georgia in the years to come.”
“Kimberly-Clark has been a longtime north Fulton corporate citizen in the city of Roswell,” said Brandon Beach, President/CEO of the Greater North Fulton Chamber of Commerce. “We are proud to have them continue their investment in north Fulton, while helping to create this new Fortune 1000 corporation in Alpharetta. These new, quality jobs will continue to add to our stable of high-tech jobs. This, in addition to numerous recent high-tech job announcements, continues to reinforce that north Fulton is the premier place to go for quality workforce, quality real estate and quality of life.”
Lauren Salas Lambiase, a Georgia Department of Economic Development Senior Project Manager, worked with the city of Alpharetta to assist the company in the location planning of its headquarters.
