Bayer offers $2.4B in cash for Algeta (AKGZF), a 27% premium to yesterday’s close:

Algeta has not (yet) accepted the offer.

Algeta developed the cancer radiotherapy, Xofigo and has co-marketing rights with Bayer in the US; in the rest of the world, Bayer pays Algeta a royalty on sales.

Xofigo has had a slow sales ramp since its May 2013 FDA approval, as detailed in #msg-91684833. (In the EU, Xofigo was approved by the CHMP in Sep 2013, but it is not formally cleared for marketing.)

the foremost piece of B.S. ever promulgated
in any area of human knowledge!”
