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 is trading on deal odds now, not on drug data. Shares last traded at $123.25, up 39.28%, after GSK said it will buy the Nasdaq-listed biotech for $124 per share in cash. That leaves just a small discount to the offer price. Nuvalent’s stock is being valued more like a GSK takeover play than an oncology bet. Nuvalent stock got a new cap Tuesday after the company agreed to a buyout. GSK said it will make a tender offer for all outstanding Class A and Class B shares at $124 each, within 10 business days. Tender offers pay cash straight to shareholders and are often used to speed up takeovers. The $124 offer is 40% over Nuvalent’s previous close and 26% above its 30-day volume-weighted average price, which tracks average trading prices by volume.

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.
