Zydus Wellness expands globally with acquisition of UK digital healthcare platform

Zydus Wellness Limited announced the acquisition of Comfort Click Limited (CCL), a UK-based digital consumer healthcare platform, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Alidac UK Limited. The transaction, concluded on August 29, 2025, involved Alidac acquiring 100% of CCL's ordinary shares of Class A and B, along with significant portions of Class C and D non-controlling ordinary shares, making CCL a wholly-owned step-down subsidiary. The equity value of the acquisition is £239m, plus a profit ticker from March 31, 2025, to the closing date, subject to customary adjustments.

CCL, recognized as one of Europe's fastest-growing companies, generated a consolidated turnover of £134m for the year ended June 30, 2025, with a five-year CAGR of 57% and an adjusted operating profit of £21m. This strategic move marks Zydus Wellness' expansion into international markets, including the UK, EU, and USA, and enhances its presence in digital health and personalized wellness.

The acquisition strengthens Zydus Wellness' portfolio with CCL's three brands: WeightWorld™ (plant-based supplements, vitamins, and sports nutrition), maxmedix™ (pediatric VMS gummy brand), and Animigo (natural pet VMS brand). The existing management team will continue to lead CCL's operations, with a portion of their proceeds reinvested into Growth Shares linked to business plans. The acquisition is expected to be cash EPS accretive.
