MorphoSys Completes Voluntary Delisting from the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Global Market  

MorphoSys AG today announced that it has completed the voluntary delisting of its shares from the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and its American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) from the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”). Effective at the end of the day on August 2, 2024, MorphoSys’ shares are no longer posted for trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, and, effective prior to market open on August 5, 2024, MorphoSys’ ADSs are no longer traded on Nasdaq.

On June 20, 2024, MorphoSys announced that it had entered into a delisting agreement with Novartis BidCo AG and Novartis AG (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Novartis”) following the successful closing of the acquisition of MorphoSys by Novartis in May 2024. On July 4, 2024, Novartis launched a public delisting purchase offer for all outstanding MorphoSys no-par value bearer shares.

Novartis BidCo Germany AG (hereinafter also referred to as “Novartis”) also informed MorphoSys on June 20, 2024, of its intention to merge MorphoSys into Novartis by initiating a squeeze-out of MorphoSys’ remaining minority shareholders. At the MorphoSys Annual General Meeting on August 27, 2024, a resolution will be adopted on transferring MorphoSys’ minority shareholders’ shares to Novartis against a cash compensation of € 68.00 per share.
