Pharmaceutical giant Merck has decided to acquire the British company Verona Pharma for about 10 billion dollars, paying 107 dollars per share, a 23% premium. The strategic move comes amid Merck's desire to diversify its revenue streams, given that the patent for its Keytruda oncology treatment will expire in 2028. This is a continuation of Merck's efforts to expand its portfolio, given previous acquisitions including Prometheus Biosciences.
