Stryker Corp. (SYK) on Tuesday said it reached a definitive agreement to buy Invuity Inc. (IVTY) for $7.40 a share in cash, or about $190 million.

The deal represents a roughly 29% premium to Invuity's closing share price of $5.75 on Monday.

Stryker, a Kalamazoo, Mich., provider of medical technology products and services, said Invuity's portfolio of advanced photonics and single-use, lighted instruments is complementary to its own surgical portfolio.

Stryker said the acquisition of San Francisco-based Invuity, which it expects to complete in the fourth quarter, will have an immaterial impact on its 2018 earnings.
