Adagio Medical cuts 25 of 43 jobs and starts strategic review of alternatives

Negative Impact 4 of 5 restructuring Written later

Adagio Medical said its board has begun a formal process to explore strategic alternatives, including a possible acquisition, merger or other transaction, and is reducing its workforce by 25 of 43 full-time employees effective September 23, 2026. The company also said it will lower the conversion price on its 13% Senior Secured Convertible Notes from September 23, 2026 through October 31, 2026, which could result in more shares being issued on conversion, and that there is no assurance any transaction will occur.

Key points

  • Workforce reduction of 25 of 43 full-time employees, effective September 23, 2026
  • Estimated cash expenditures of approximately $1.3 million, mainly one-time severance, benefits and related costs; additional charges, including possible impairments, cannot yet be estimated
  • Conversion price on the 13% Senior Secured Convertible Notes to be lowered for conversions from September 23, 2026 through October 31, 2026, subject to extension
  • Preliminary unaudited cash, equivalents and marketable securities of approximately $7.7 million as of June 30, 2026; no timetable set for the strategic review
