Nice pr that - only disappointment is it is not being fast tracked here in U.K.

Might we have turned the corner?

[nchanning] 20/6/2022 09:20

Does anyone have their own Sum of the parts valuation they would care to share here ?

[mighunter] 26/5/2022 16:12

Probably as good as it gets in terms of total users and pedigree for Akili?

PureTech Health plc

PureTech Founded Entity Akili Integrates First-of-its-Kind Prescription Video Game Treatment with the Virtual World Through Partnership with Roblox

The Roblox vision for bringing people together through shared experiences, plus the Akili commitment to a new era of cognitive medicine, make the companies ideal partners to deliver a reimagined patient experience

PureTech Health plc (Nasdaq: PRTC, LSE: PRTC) ("PureTech" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biotherapeutics company noted that its Founded Entity, Akili Interactive Labs, Inc. ("Akili"), a leading digital medicine company pioneering the development of cognitive treatments through game-changing technologies, and Roblox (NYSE: RBLX), a global platform bringing millions of people together through shared experiences, today announced a collaboration that connects patients' medical treatments to their favorite virtual worlds.

Through this partnership, Akili and Roblox are introducing new ways for medicine to fit into patients' lives. Initially, the companies will establish an exclusive Roblox rewards exchange tied to Akili's EndeavorRx(R), the first and only prescription video game treatment for children with ADHD, cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (see full indication below). The companies are exploring additional novel approaches and opportunities to engage Akili patients through Roblox integrations.

i hear we are likely to get booted from ftse 250 - very happy for the buy back to pick up tracker sellers...

[lendmeafiver] 25/5/2022 11:30

😂😂😂

[edwardt] 25/5/2022 10:52

always;)at least i didn't buy de la rue. i jest.

[volvo] 24/5/2022 18:45

You still whinging ed?

[edwardt] 20/5/2022 11:09

no one likes 'growth' stocks right now - i get it. what i don't get is this is now valued at possibly 85 to 90% of group consolidated cash as of yr end. bonkers imo. the buy back should get on with it too as surely this is an accretive action for those that hang on in there assuming they cancel the shares once purchased back.

[deadly nightshade] 19/5/2022 21:46

It's strange the low buy back volumes every day, is that a sign that there is very few floating shares to buy? In which case it makes you wonder why the share price basically halved for a reason that I still can't fathom out. Really can't get my head around the markets these days it's really weird this can still be valued at a share price it was sitting at 3 year ago when we had nothing like the progress or cash on the balance sheet we have now. Why this is not on the radar of a large pharma for a takeout is beyond me this would be pocket money to some of the big companies to buy up

[bad gateway] 19/5/2022 07:53

Well every day they seem to be buying at a slightly higher average price. Not bad in today's market.

[lendmeafiver] 18/5/2022 13:07

This buyback is going to go on for years at this rate!

[lendmeafiver] 10/5/2022 15:49

Better, glad I took advantage of the dip

[lendmeafiver] 10/5/2022 13:40

If we don’t get an RNS confirming at least 50,000 shares have been purchased today then what are Jefferies doing, sub 160p is beyond cheap.

[lendmeafiver] 10/5/2022 10:20

So a poultry 29k shares repurchased so far, come on back to £2+ we all know it.

[lendmeafiver] 09/5/2022 20:21

I note todays RNS, hopefully Tranche 2 will be used to broker a direct purchase of USD25m worth from the largest shareholder if they remain keen to sell, rather than continually drip feeding the market with stock.

[lendmeafiver] 06/5/2022 10:59

I’m surprised at the fall back today but I agree good for the buyback, will be interesting to see the first buyback RNS, timing, quality and price.

[edwardt] 06/5/2022 10:47

short lived. i guess perversely we want the share price to stay low whilst the buy back takes effect for maximum accretion!

[lendmeafiver] 05/5/2022 13:27

Perhaps that’s actually the best strategy, the market seems to struggle to understand Puretechs value so sell the already IPO’d founded entities down to zero, completing the exit of those investments, will be able to buyback a huge percentage of the company market cap if the share price stays sub 250p.

Still have the royalty upside from the founded entities, but focus on the development of the wholly owned pipeline.

[lendmeafiver] 05/5/2022 11:37

LOL, If you are reading this Bharatt, well done on the 50m, another USD100m buyback this summer on Vedanta IPO would be good, and/or flog the remaining 5.6% Karuna.

[edwardt] 05/5/2022 11:28

where do you think they got that figure from? you should send them an invoice. lol

[lendmeafiver] 05/5/2022 10:37

Well I got that one right!

Share buyback would be best whilst the share price is at these levels, given excess cash they should start now with say USD50m.
