Wonder how many Fusion Pharm shareholders were relatively new and benefitted from the 97% premium to 18th March close!
Bound to have been plenty of insider dealing stateside, probably in "Options" to leverage the benefit.
Under the terms of the definitive agreement, AstraZeneca, through a subsidiary, will acquire all of Fusion's outstanding shares pursuant to a plan of arrangement for a price of $21.00 per share in cash at closing plus a non-transferable contingent value right of $3.00 per share in cash payable upon the achievement of a specified regulatory milestone. The upfront cash portion of the consideration represents a transaction value of approximately $2bn, a 97% premium to Fusion's closing market price of $10.64 on 18th March 2024 and an 85% premium to the 30-day volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of $11.37 before this announcement. |

Don't tell me you sold these to buy APH as well! If APH are so good you should follow your own advice and put all your eggs in that creaky basket. |
Ex div on the 22nd, may pick up some before then. |

Quite a spread of views!
It is important to bear in mind what a commentator's price target means: it is not 'current fair value', but (unless otherwise stated) a price which the commentator at present believes will be hit at some time within the following 12 months, and not necessarily sustained thereafter, still less that there will not be further rises /falls from the price at the date on which the target was stated before that figure is hit, if indeed it is hit. |
