Mayne Pharma (ASX:MYX), a pharmaceutical company, became the subject of a broken takeover that Raper Capital sees as an opportunity. In July 2026, Raper Capital noted that 18 months earlier a sponsor-backed buyer had contracted to pay $7.40 per share for Mayne Pharma, and that after one of the ugliest broken deals in recent Australian corporate history, the shares traded far below that level, which it believes creates an attractive investment opportunity given the underlying business value. Mayne Pharma operates in the Healthcare sector within the Pharmaceuticals industry, and Thesis Tracker has captured 3 comments from 2 fund managers, including Raper Capital. Founded in 1845 and headquartered in Salisbury, Adelaide, Mayne Pharma develops, manufactures and sells branded and generic pharmaceutical products, focusing on women's health and dermatology in the United States, along with contract manufacturing services in Australia, and was the subject of a terminated acquisition by Cosette Pharmaceuticals.
