Eli Lilly is the acquirer, expanding into psychedelic treatments via the $2.8B deal
Eli Lilly is acquiring psychedelic drug developer AtaiBeckley for $2.8 billion. The deal, which could be valued at up to $3.8 billion, marks a significant move into psychedelic-based mental health treatments. Mizuho Americas healthcare equity strategist Jared Holz noted that large-cap pharma is increasingly embracing alternative therapies, citing J&J's ketamine-based product annualizing nearly $2 billion. Holz expects 2025 to be a historic year for biotech M&A, with over 30 transactions north of a billion dollars.
