Kuva Labs tenders for Lisata Therapeutics at $4.00 per share

Kuva Labs has commenced a tender offer for Lisata Therapeutics, offering $4.00 per share in cash plus a contingent value right at closing.

Starling Bank issued its first-ever bond, a £150 million offering with a 10-year tenor, for general corporate purposes.

ReadingA UK challenger bank issuing debt at 10 years says they do not expect to be acquired in the next 18 months and do not plan an IPO before 2028.
