Business Wire
Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (NYSE: BMY) announced today that it
has completed its previously announced $2.4 billion acquisition of
Medarex, Inc. (NASDAQ: MEDX) (“Medarex”). As a result of the
transaction, Medarex has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Bristol-Myers Squibb.
Bristol-Myers Squibb initiated on July 28, 2009 a cash tender
offer to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock of Medarex
for $16.00 per share. The tender offer period expired at midnight
(New York City time) on August 26, 2009, and the subsequent
offering period relating to the tender offer expired at midnight
(New York City time) on August 31, 2009, at which time shareholders
of Medarex had tendered in aggregate approximately 120,417,467
shares of Medarex common stock which, together with the 2,879,223
shares of Medarex common stock owned by Bristol-Myers Squibb since
January 2005, represented approximately 90.7% of the Medarex shares
outstanding.
Today, Bristol-Myers Squibb acquired all of the remaining
outstanding shares of Medarex common stock by means of a “short
form merger” in which all such shares were converted into the right
to receive $16.00 per share, in cash and without interest, less any
required withholding taxes.
This press release is neither an offer to purchase nor a
solicitation of an offer to share shares of Medarex.
