DUBLIN, July 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Perrigo Company plc (NYSE: PRGO), a leading global provider of Consumer Self-Care Products, today announced that it is scaling and optimizing its proven growth model—anchored in global Category Leadership and Market Activation—across the organization to enhance agility, accelerate innovation, and drive long-term sustainable growth. This organizational alignment advances Perrigo's multi-year Stabilize, Streamline and Strengthen ('Three-S') plan and reflects operational readiness across the Company.
'This is an important next step forward for Perrigo,' said Patrick Lockwood-Taylor, President and CEO. 'By aligning our organization around global categories and empowering market activation, we are positioning Perrigo to drive long-term performance with deeper customer and consumer engagement. This move links the organization to our strategy of scaling more molecules, more efficiently, to more consumers across more markets. This alignment is not just about structure—it's about performance, purpose and unlocking the full potential of our people and our portfolio.'
Key Highlights of Our Category-Led, Market Activation Growth Model:
Streamlining for Long-Term Sustainable Growth: This alignment enhances speed, agility and scalability, while reducing bureaucracy. It enables Perrigo to serve more consumers across a broader range of price points.
Growth Model Already Delivering Strong Results: This is not a new direction. Perrigo has already realized measurable success with this model in its CSCI business and increasingly in its CSCA business, including accelerated regulatory milestones, digital activations and go-to-market strategies that have captured market opportunities and driven share gains.
Unlocking the Full Potential of Our Portfolio: This alignment is designed to unlock value from both brand and store brand portfolios, creating new opportunities for growth, innovation and efficiency. Perrigo is centralizing and enhancing its global brand-building capabilities to deliver self-care solutions that consumers want—powered by deep insights, preferred innovation and impactful marketing. Execution will be driven by market-empowered activation, commercial go-to-market excellence and strong customer relationships.
Aligning Leadership to Deliver Execution Excellence: To support this alignment, including category strategy execution, go-to-market excellence and global demand generation across all regions, Roberto Khoury has been appointed EVP and Chief Commercial Officer. Mr. Khoury has a strong track record of success leading Perrigo's CSCI business and will play a key role in aligning commercial functions with the new global category model. Mr. Khoury will assume responsibility for operating results in both CSCI and CSCA and will partner closely with David Ball, EVP and Chief Brand and Digital Officer, who is responsible for global category leadership.
Financial Guidance Unchanged: This alignment does not impact our full-year 2025 adjusted EPS guidance or reporting segments.
As part of this alignment, the roles of EVP and President CSCI and EVP and President CSCA will be discontinued. Triona Schmelter will depart the organization and be available on a consultative basis until October 31, 2025. Perrigo extends its sincere gratitude for her leadership and contributions over the past two years, including the launch of Opill® which was a significant inflection point for CSCA and women's reproductive health in the U.S.
'I want to recognize Triona's contributions in navigating the complexities of the infant formula market and strengthening our store brand position. We wish her all the best in her future endeavors,' added Lockwood-Taylor.
This alignment will follow all applicable information and consultation processes, as legally required, and is expected to be implemented over the coming months.

Yext CEO offers to take company private in $1.1 billion deal
FILE PHOTO: A Specialist trader wears a Yext vest during the company's IPO on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York, U.S., April 13, 2017. REUTERS/Brendan McDermid/File Photo (Reuters) -Yext's CEO Michael Walrath has proposed taking the search optimization company private in a deal valued at about $1.1 billion, it said on Monday, sending shares up 9% in early trading. Walrath, who owns 2.8% of the company's shares according to data compiled by LSEG, offered $9.00 per share in cash for the stock he does not already own — a premium of 11.2% to Friday's closing price. Walrath indicated that the proposal is backed by reputable and well-capitalized financing sources, the company said. It did not disclose the names of the funding sources. Yext's board has formed a special committee to evaluate the proposal and any strategic alternatives. There is no assurance the proposal will result in a transaction, the company said. The New York-based company also said it is withdrawing its forecast for the rest of the fiscal year 2026 in light of the proposal. The company's full-year revenue for 2025 rose 4% to $421.0 million, but its net loss jumped to $27.9 million from $2.6 million from a year ago. Its stock has gained more than 50% in the past 12 months. Yext provides software that helps companies increase their visibility on AI and traditional search, social media, websites and direct communications platforms. "Yext has achieved remarkable progress, and I believe now is the right time to explore a transaction that can deliver compelling value to stockholders," Walrath said in a statement.
