During the 2024 financial year, Dechra transferred from public ownership to private ownership following its acquisition by Freya Bidco Limited (subsequently renamed as Dechra Pharmaceuticals Holdings Limited). Dechra’s shareholders approved the acquisition in July 2023 and the acquisition completed on 16 January 2024. EQT who led the acquisition have a commitment to sustainability, and focus on investing in a way that not only maximises returns but also benefits society and the planet.

Given the changes to Company ownership and its new Sustainability strategy effective from 1 July 2024, the governance structure has been amended to reflect these changes.
