Onyx says multiple parties engaged in takeover talks

By Bill Berkrot

(Reuters) - Onyx Pharmaceuticals Inc said on Thursday that its process of seeking a buyer for the company is "ongoing with multiple parties engaged."

Onyx had previously rejected an unsolicited takeover offer from Amgen Inc as being too low.

Reuters, citing three people familiar with the process, reported on Wednesday that Amgen was in advanced discussions to buy Onyx at an increased offer of $130 per share, or about $9.5 billion, with the two sides working toward a possible announcement as soon as within the next week.

On a conference call with analysts, Onyx Chief Executive Anthony Coles said "multiple parties" were still involved in the takeover talks.

He added that the outcome and timetable of the sale process was dependent on a review by the Onyx board of directors.

Onyx also reported a smaller-than-expected second quarter loss as revenue more than doubled on sales of cancer drugs, including its new multiple myeloma treatment Kyprolis.

The biotechnology company said it had a net loss of $53.2 million, or 73 cents per share, half the loss of $106 million, or $1.65 per share, a year ago.

Excluding one-time items, Onyx lost 40 cents per share. Analysts on average had expected a loss of 42 cents per share, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

Revenue for the quarter rose to $153 million from $72.7 million in the year ago period, edging past Wall Street estimates of $151.7 million.

Kyprolis had sales of $61 million for the quarter. That excludes an additional $10 million in deferred revenue for Kyprolis purchased by distributors that had not yet shipped to doctors' offices or hospitals, the company said.

Onyx also said plans were in place for a Kyprolis launch in Europe in the second half of 2014.

Onyx recorded $81.8 million in sales of Nexavar, the liver and kidney cancer drug it shares with German drugmaker Bayer AG, up from $72.7 million in the year ago quarter.

The company also received $10.2 million in royalty revenue from Bayer on its new colon cancer drug Stivarga.

Onyx earlier this year spurned a $120 per share takeover offer from Amgen and announced that it was seeking other bids for the company.

Amgen, the world's largest biotechnology company, is still widely considered to be the front-runner to acquire Onyx at the higher offer of about $130 per share.

Onyx shares rose more than 1 percent to $129 in extended trading from a Nasdaq close at $127.42.

Jackie Robinson statue vandalized with offensive words, symbols

NBC New York

A statue of Jackie Robinson in New York was vandalized on Wednesday. The base of the statue was covered with a tarp to hide offensive words written in black marker that was difficult to clean off.

By Elisha Fieldstadt, NBC News

A famous statue of Jackie Robinson in New York was found defaced with hateful words on Wednesday, police said.

Anti-Semitic writing was discovered by staff of MCU Park in Coney Island ? home of the Brooklyn Cyclones baseball team ? and New York police got a call around 8:30 a.m., said Detective Kellyann Ort.

The larger-than-life statue depicts Pee Wee Reese with his arm around Jackie Robinson ? celebrated for being the first African American in the major leagues ? in their Brooklyn Dodger uniforms.

---

MCU Park?s director of communications, Billy Harner, said that?park maintenance employees were preparing the field for an 11 a.m. game when they found ?vulgar writing that was both racist and anti-Semitic? and notified the park?s general manager.

Harner said in an email that?the vandalism must have occurred sometime between midnight Tuesday and 6 a.m. Wednesday.

Harner said the words were written by the vandals in black marker. NBC New York reported that the graffiti included the n-word and a swastika and said ?F--- Jackie Robinson.?

The words and symbols were on the base of the statue and the statue itself, said Harner. He said the Parks Department had an easy time getting the permanent marker off of the metal of the statue but have had difficulty removing the hateful words off the base. In the meantime, the base of the statue has been covered with a tarp, he said.

?We are optimistic that we will be able to remove all of the writing,? Harner said.

A statement from Harner and the General Manager of MCU read, "Jackie Robinson and Pee Wee Reese embody the humanity and inclusiveness that make our borough, city and country great. It is both heartbreaking and deeply disturbing that this statue, which is a symbol of equality and tolerance, has been defaced in such an offensive and hateful way."

Brooklyn Cyclones

The Pee Wee Reese and Jackie Robinson statue stands at MCU Park in the Coney Island section of the Brooklyn borough of New York, where the minor league Cyclones team plays. Hateful words were found written on the base and statue on Wednesday.

NBC New York reported that New York Sen. Chuck Schumer echoed the park operator?s feelings in a statement: "Defacing the Jackie Robinson statue is a dagger in the heart to everything America stands for, and I hope those who are responsible are caught, punished and taught why what they did is so disgusting and offensive."

Police have made no arrests related to the incident, said Ort. While no cameras focus solely on the statue, 36 cameras show the ballpark from various angles and MCU?s staff has turned all video over to police, Harner said.
