Sale of Cambrex: British private equity firm Permira is selling its contract drugmaker Cambrex, aiming for a valuation of up to $4 billion, as reported by the Financial Times.
Impact of U.S. Manufacturing Push: Cambrex has benefited from a trend among global drugmakers to increase U.S. manufacturing capacity in response to proposed drug import duties by President Trump, which could lead to tariffs as high as 250%.
