- Healthcare company Procaps Group ( NASDAQ: PROC ) said it does not expect the proposed acquisition of Grupo Somar to close in 2022.
- PROC had announced the acquisition of the Mexican pharmaceutical company in May, and had said the deal was expected to close in Q4.
- The sellers had informed the company that a condition to the closing would not be satisfied. A court in Mexico City issued an Embargo Precautorio affecting certain shares of Somar in connection with a pending dispute.
- The timing for resolution of the Embargo is said to be unclear.
- PROC said the Embargo could result in further delays or prevent closing of the deal.
