Boston Scientific to Acquire Penumbra for $14.5 Billion, Expanding Stroke Tech

Boston Scientific signed a cash-and-stock deal to acquire Penumbra for about $14.5 billion, valuing Penumbra at $374 per share and aiming to close later this year pending approvals. Penumbra’s portfolio spans neurovascular and vascular devices, including thrombectomy systems, potentially broadening Boston Scientific’s growth in high-potential markets. Financing consists of roughly 73% cash and 27% stock, with an expected near-term EPS dilution followed by accretion as synergies materialize.

Boston Scientific to acquire Penumbra in $14.5B push into thrombectomy and neurovascular care

Boston Scientific announced a definitive agreement to acquire Penumbra in a cash-and-stock deal valued at about $14.5 billion (Penumbra at $374/share), creating a scaled entry into mechanical thrombectomy and neurovascular therapies. The transaction finances roughly 73% cash and 27% Boston Scientific stock (about $11 billion cash financed with cash on hand and new debt) and is expected to close in 2026 pending stockholder and regulatory approvals. Penumbra reported about $1.4 billion in revenue for 2025. Penumbra stockholders may elect cash or Boston Scientific shares; Adam Elsesser plans to take Boston Scientific stock for all his Penumbra shares. The deal is dilutive to GAAP earnings in the near term and to adjusted EPS in the near term, with accretion expected in later years.

What to Expect from the Partial Lunar Eclipse on Saturday

A partial lunar eclipse will occur on October 28, two weeks after the annular solar eclipse. The eclipse will be visible in the Earth's Eastern Hemisphere, with Canada and New England having a brief glimpse. The moon will enter the penumbra, the faint outer part of the Earth's shadow, and then the umbra, the darker inner part. The partial eclipse will last for 77 minutes, with the umbra covering only about 1/20 of the moon's area. The next lunar eclipse will be a penumbral event in March 2023, followed by a total lunar eclipse in March 2025.

May 2023: Witness the Eerie Beauty of the Flower Moon Lunar Eclipse.

Skywatchers in the Eastern Hemisphere and Antarctica witnessed the first lunar eclipse of 2023, a penumbral lunar eclipse of the full Flower Moon on May 5, 2023. While not as dramatic as a total or partial lunar eclipse, it offered skywatchers the chance to visualize the astronomical alignment of the sun, Earth, and the moon in real time. Photographers throughout Asia and the Middle East captured eerie photographs of the eclipse, which appeared as a dark 'smudge' or 'stain' on the outer portion of the moon.

"May 5th Lunar Eclipse: Where, When, and How to Watch"

On May 5, 2023, a penumbral lunar eclipse will occur, visible in Africa, Asia, Australia, and large portions of Europe. The eclipse occurs when the Earth gets between the Sun and the Moon and casts part of its shadow on the Moon. The Moon will dim slightly as it passes through the lighter part of the Earth's shadow, known as the penumbra. Lunar eclipses occur when the Moon passes through the Earth's shadow, which is not always uniform. The upcoming event is the first of a number of eclipses occurring over the next year.
