The Telix Pharmaceuticals Ltd share price is in focus today after announcing a merger with ITM Isotope Technologies Munich SE, a global leader in therapeutic radioisotopes. The deal could create a radiopharmaceutical powerhouse, with combined estimated 2026 revenue over US$1.3 billion and deeper supply chain security for Telix's pipeline.

The merger positions Telix as a vertically integrated leader, with capabilities across radioisotope production, global manufacturing, and therapeutic development. ITM brings expertise in commercial-scale isotope production, including lutetium-177, actinium-225, and terbium-161, and serves over 65 countries.

ITM's late-stage pipeline includes ITM-11, a novel candidate for treating neuroendocrine tumours, which has completed a Phase 3 trial.

Following completion, Telix shareholders will own about 76.3% of the combined group, and ITM shareholders the remaining 23.7%.

Telix Managing Director and Group CEO, Dr. Christian Behrenbruch, said:.

Over the past 12 months, Telix shares have risen 19%, outpacing the S&P/ASX 200 Index, which has declined 1% over the same period.
