GSK spin-out Haleon launch is biggest European listing in a decade
Today, Haleon (LSE/NYSE: HLN) launched as an independent company 100% focused on consumer health, completing its demerger from UK pharma major GSK (LSE: GSK).
Haleon shares began trading at 330 pence, and the emergence represents the largest London listing since Glencore’s £37 billion IPO in 2011.
Trading commenced on Monday on the London Stock Exchange (LSE), with Brian McNamara, chief executive of Haleon, leading the opening ceremony to signal the start of trading. Trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is set to follow, and a similar market-opening event will take place on Wednesday 20 July 2022.
