On September 16, REVVITY INC rose 5.21% in regular trading, trading at $147.24/share, with turnover of $39.50 million. The stock hit a fresh 52-week high, extending the prior session's surge of over 9%.
The sustained rally is driven by the company's recently announced acquisition of French biotech firm Human Cell Design (HCD), which specializes in developing human cell models for metabolic diseases such as diabetes and obesity. Upon completion, HCD's human pancreatic beta-cell models will be integrated into Revvity's Life Sciences portfolio, enhancing its drug discovery and screening capabilities for GLP-1 and other metabolic disease therapies while expanding applications in regenerative medicine and cell therapy. The transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter, pending regulatory approval; financial terms were not disclosed.
