Director dealings: GlaxoSmithKline directors offload shares
Several directors of GlaxoSmithKline offloaded shares in the healthcare giant on Tuesday in order to meet certain tax liabilities.
GSK chief executive Emma Walmsley disposed of 5,868 ordinary shares at 1,312.63p a piece for a total of £77,201.17, while chief financial officer Simon Dingemans sold 8,360 shares for 1,312.36p each, collecting a total of £109,713.30, and outgoing president of research and development Patrick Vallance dropped 20,322 ordinary shares at 1,317.60p for a grand total of £267,762.66.
Vallance announced in November that he would be leaving GSK at the end of March after 12 years to become Downing Street's chief scientific adviser and head of Number 10's office for science. He will be replaced by Calico's research and development boss Dr Hal Barron.
GlaxoSmithKline, reaffirmed its dividend for this 2018 earlier this month, saying that safeguarding shareholder returns was a higher priority than large-scale mergers and acquisitions.
Unveiling her first full-year results since taking over as chief executive, Walmsley said she was "increasingly confident" that GSK's new suite of products would help it deliver "mid- to high single-digit growth" in the years leading to 2020.
As of 1620 GMT, shares had gained 1.28% to 1,325,40p.
