On November 10, Thermo Fisher Scientific rose 3.06% in Regular Trading, trading at $716.34 per share, with turnover of $638 million.
The move was accompanied by the company’s newly authorized share repurchase plan of up to $5 billion, which replaces the prior authorization that had about $1 billion remaining, while the quarterly dividend was maintained at $0.47 per share.
Background figures also show Thermo Fisher Scientific reported third-quarter adjusted EPS of $6.68 on revenue of $12.14 billion, both above market expectations. The combination of better-than-expected results and a larger buyback authorization reinforced investor confidence in cash generation and longer-term capital return.
