Catalent (CTLT) has been in the news recently due to the completion of a
$16.5 billion acquisition by
Novo Holdings, which marks a significant shift in the pharmaceutical industry, with regulatory conditions met for the transaction. Catalent, a contract manufacturer, had been performing well in the financial sector, with a 3.2% growth since its last earnings report before the acquisition. During the acquisition process, Lennox International is set to replace Catalent in the S&P 500 by 2024. Catalent's assets are being redistributed and more shares are being purchased by multiple investors including Fmr LLC, State Street Corp, and Athos Capital Ltd. Reports of potential hindrances to the buyout deal resulted in a temporary fall of CTLT stocks, but this was short-lived. The Bio-tech's
CEO is set to remain leading the company, and they have made open communications with their customers about the pending acquisition by Novo. A few obstacles were met with this transaction, with US Senator Warren calling for scrutiny, and some consumer groups seeking to block the deal. However, despite these challenges, the deal eventually closed successfully.
