Novavax shares (NVAX) surged after the vaccine maker said it had struck a licensing deal worth up to $1.4 billion with Sanofi (SNY, FR:SAN).

Novavax shares were up 133% in recent trading at $10.11. The shares remain far off their record high near $320, set in February 2021.

The company said overnight that it would jointly commercialize its Covid-19 vaccine worldwide with Sanofi. The French healthcare company will get a sole license to combine the treatment with its flu vaccine.
