French diagnostics company bioMérieux is set to close its San Jose office, resulting in the layoff of 121 employees, effective April 3, 2026. This closure follows bioMérieux’s acquisition of Specific Diagnostics in 2022, and despite reporting a 7.3% sales growth for the first nine months of 2025, the company is consolidating operations amid a challenging period for the Bay Area’s diagnostics sector. Legal scrutiny around compliance with WARN Act notice rules is underway, and resources for affected workers will be available through California’s Employment Development Department as employees prepare for the transition.
