Avista Pharma acquisition finalized

LONGMONT — The acquisition of Avista Pharma Solutions Inc., a pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing company with a major Longmont presence, by Cambrex Corp. (NYSE: CBM) closed this week.

“Acquiring Avista adds a full complement of early-stage development capabilities to Cambrex’s larger scale capabilities for both APIs and finished dosage forms,” Cambrex CEO Steve Klosk said in a prepared statement. “We are excited to start off 2019 integrating Avista into Cambrex’s global network of facilities.”
