BURLINGTON, N.C., (Dec. 16, 2024) - Labcorp (NYSE: LH), a global leader of innovative and comprehensive laboratory services, has entered into an agreement with MAWD Pathology Group in Lenexa, Kansas, to acquire select assets of the independent laboratory's clinical and women's health testing businesses.

"We are excited about how our agreement with Labcorp, whose team shares our commitment to improving the health of our communities through best-in-class laboratory services, will advance the highest level of pathology and laboratory care for patients in the region."

Subject to customary closing conditions, this transaction is anticipated to close in early 2025. Until that time, there will be no changes to operations or services.
