Nuvalent Trades Close to $124 After GSK’s $10.6 Billion Offer

Nuvalent Trades Close to $124 After GSK’s $10.6 Billion Offer

Nuvalent surged Tuesday after GSK said it would buy the Nasdaq-listed biotech for $10.6 billion, or $124 a share in cash. The stock shot up 38.9% to $122.93, almost reaching the offer price and trading like the day’s standard merger-arb play. That wasn’t a full biotech sector rally. The SPDR S&P Biotech ETF climbed 2.1%, while the iShares Nasdaq Biotechnology ETF put on 1.4%. Nuvalent’s pop looked like a move on its own news, not a general sector rebound.
GSK’s $10.6 Billion Oncology Leap Goes Deeper Than Headlines Show

GSK’s $10.6 Billion Oncology Leap Goes Deeper Than Headlines Show

GSK is set to acquire U.S.-based Nuvalent for $10.6 billion in cash, making it the largest deal GSK has made in years. The offer is $124 per share, which works out to a 40% premium on Nuvalent’s previous closing price. It’s an early move by CEO Luke Miels as he looks to revamp the British group’s oncology pipeline. GSK is looking for late-stage drugs as it braces for patent expiry on dolutegravir, its main HIV therapy, between 2028 and 2030. After that, cheaper products could hit sales. Nuvalent could bring in new revenue as early as 2027 and give GSK a shot at keeping annual sales above 40 billion pounds by 2031.

FTSE 100 Falls Today as AstraZeneca and GSK Drag London Stocks Lower

London’s FTSE 100 slipped 0.6% to 10,270.96 as of 10:39 BST, while the FTSE 250 hovered, edging down just 0.05% to 22,389.12. This shift caught attention, landing just a day after the blue-chip index finally snapped a six-day slide. Energy stocks gave that rebound a lift, but it fizzled fast on Wednesday. Traders were staring down a packed earnings calendar, climbing oil prices, and looming central-bank calls in the U.S., euro zone, and UK.

GSK beats 2025 sales targets — but new CEO warns 2026 growth will cool

GSK is projecting slower sales growth in 2026 under new CEO Luke Miels, who took over from Emma Walmsley earlier this year. The company is bracing for patent expiries on its leading HIV drugs starting in 2028. It now expects revenue growth of 3% to 5% at constant currency, while warning that vaccines and general medicines sales might decline. Shares climbed 1.4% by 0809 GMT after an initial drop. Core earnings per share for Q4 came in at 25.5 pence, supported by an 8% sales increase to £8.62 billion. This marks the first time Miels has laid down concrete targets. The company needs to sustain its cash flow while ramping up new product launches and advancing late-stage trials.
