Broadwood Partners, holding 27.3% of Staar Surgical, plans to vote against the company's sale to Alcon, citing concerns over the sale process and Staar's growth potential. They argue that Staar did not adequately pursue the sale and faced issues regarding access to records. Staar defends the deal, highlighting a 51% premium to its recent closing price and asserting that the $28-per-share offer exceeds potential standalone value, despite challenges in the market, particularly in China.
