So how does the Shire shareholder make out on this deal?

Takeda shares tumbled as much as 9.3 percent in early trading in Tokyo on Wednesday. The Japanese company is offering the equivalent of 49 pounds ($68.55) per share, including 27.26 pounds in stock and 21.75 pounds in cash, Shire said in a statement. That’s a 60 percent premium to Shire’s closing share price on March 27, before Takeda disclosed it was interested in the US drug maker.

Where is the 60percent premium to Close of March 27 2018 at shire 128.87


I see a 4 percent premium if you work the pounds of stock and pounds of cash into dollars and get 134.76 over March 27 2018 close.
