Singular Genomics Systems has agreed to be acquired and taken private by an affiliate of Deerfield Management for $20 a share.

The deal is valued at $50.2 million based on the company's 2.51 million outstanding shares, according to FactSet. It is expected to close in the first half of next year.

Deerfield submitted a nonbinding proposal to acquire the company back in September, saying at the time that it sought an acquisition at $10 a share. The stock closed at a record low of $5.65 on the same day Deerfield's proposal was made public.

The private-equity firm upped its offer to $24 a share in early November, following negotiations between Deerfield and a special committee of the Singular Genomics board.

The special committee has signed off on the deal announced on Monday, though the transaction is still subject to stockholder approval. If the transaction is completed, Singular Genomics will become a private company.
