The critical valuation inflection point is yet to come, as Affimers have not to date been proved safe in man. Once this happens, Big Pharma would be more than happy to pay 10-20x what they could have at pre-clinical stage. I think the majors would have been waiting for that event. But, given the recent developments in its COVID-19 work, and the probable major cash buffer that Avacta will have in a year's time (which will make a takeover absurdly more expensive in the event of a hostile takeover), it would be reasonable to assume that at least one major will pre-empt this and act accordingly.
