In this Strategic Update, the Company disclosed that the sale process it had engaged in regarding a potential sale of Bausch + Lomb Corporation (“B+L”) did not lead to an offer that reflected B+L’s longterm value, and the BHC and B+L boards determined not to move forward with a sale at this time. The Company also disclosed that it will continue its efforts to work on various liability management alternatives, including raising new debt financing.
