Berkshire Hathaway will some day own the world. Best of luck to all Acumed folks; I wish you success.
Berkshire's Marmon unit buys medical device provider from Pritzker company Since Berkshire Hathaway also owns Precision Castparts in Clackamas and they make ortho implants, i see a synergy that leaves the much smaller Acumed looking quite frail...
PC might be a supplier, or might help the Acumed product lines expand. Lots of possibilities - time will tell.
I think this could be a really good thing for Acumed. Unfortunately, they are leaving the Colson structure in place (was probably part of the deal they agreed to). Colson has been the biggest impediment to Acumed's improvement since Bob P passed away.
