The corporate team at Penningtons Manches Cooper has advised on the UK aspects of the merger of Jumo Health and Falfurrias Capital Partners. The team acted for Jumo Health, Inc (Delaware corporation), and its wholly owned subsidiary, UK company Jumo Health Limited, on this deal under Delaware law.
The team worked closely with Jumo’s US counsel, Wyrick, providing input on the UK aspects of the main US transactional documents, and assisted with the legal due diligence process, as well as UK tax advice on specific issues that arose. Canaccord Genuity LLC acted as the corporate finance advisor.
Headquartered in New Haven, Connecticut, Jumo Health creates educational resources tailored to different ages, cultures, and relatable experiences for patients and caregivers. With expertise in serving diverse populations, it covers over 160 health topics in more than 75 countries and 90 languages.
