Catalent (CTLT) is currently undergoing major changes. It has recently been included in a buyout deal with Novo Holdings, finalized at a staggering $16.5 billion. The deal has passed through regulatory conditions and has been approved by European Regulators. This acquisition, which initially saw some opposition not only from the US FTB but also consumer groups and rivals in the industry, resulted in a surge in Catalent's shares, hitting a 52-week high. Despite hurdles like reduced estimates and a Q1 earnings miss, the company also completed an expansion of the clinical supply facility in Germany. However, it's worth noting the firm has also been met with some controversy, with US Senator Warren calling for scrutiny of the Novo Holdings' Catalent deal. Notwithstanding, strategic moves from shareholders supporting and driving up the company’s growth trajectory have become apparent. Uncertainty in the environment with the question of a potential hindrance to the deal increasing adds complexity to the situation. On the horizon are the company’s Q2 earnings report, which the market is keenly awaiting.
