Optinose shares took flight in premarket trading Thursday after the pharmaceutical company agreed to be acquired by privately held Paratek Pharmaceuticals in a deal worth up to $330 million.
Paratek late Wednesday said it will pay an initial $9 a share in cash for Optinose, a 50% premium to Wednesday's closing price of $6 for the Yardley, Pa., company.
Optinose shareholders also will receive contingent value rights worth up to $5 a share tied to future sales of the chronic rhinosinusitis treatment Xhance, bringing the total potential deal value to $14 a share.
Optinose shares were recently up 59% to $9.56 in premarket trading.
The deal is slated to close as early as mid-2025.
