STAAR Surgical Delays Shareholder Vote on Alcon Sale for Fourth Time

STAAR Surgical Company is the subject of a proposed acquisition by Alcon Inc. The shareholder vote on this transaction, initially scheduled for October 23, 2025, has been postponed multiple times due to ongoing concerns and apparent resistance from shareholders and proxy advisory firms. The vote was most recently rescheduled to January 6, 2026, marking the fourth delay in the process. Broadwood Partners, a major STAAR shareholder, has expressed continued skepticism about the deal’s process, timing, and valuation, noting that opposition persists despite extensive efforts by STAAR and Alcon to promote the transaction.
