Pfizer plans to sell around £2bn worth of shares in Haleon, reducing its stake in the consumer-healthcare business from 32% to 24%. The sale comes after Pfizer announced in May 2021 its plans to start a "slow and methodical" sell-down to focus on reducing debt and increasing shareholder returns. Haleon, which produces brands such as Sensodyne toothpaste and Advil painkillers, was spun out of GlaxoSmithKline in July 2022.
