Apotex chief executive Allan Oberman says Searchlight has a proven track record, deep institutional knowledge and a strong portfolio.
The companies say Searchlight’s headquarters will stay in Montreal while Apotex’s operations will expand in Quebec.
Apotex is owned by SK Capital Partners, which purchased the Toronto company in 2022. It was founded by Barry Sherman, who along with his wife Honey Sherman was killed in their Toronto mansion in 2017.
