Receptos Lawsuit

The complaint explains, under the proposed buyout, Receptos agreed not to continue discussion with other potential buyers and give Celgene four business days to match a competing proposal. Receptos also agreed to pay Celgene a $240 million termination fee if the company sold to a higher bidder. The plaintiff states these points made it nearly impossible for Receptos to shop for possible higher bidders. The complaint went on to explain that the Receptos’ drug, Ozanimod-used to treat relapsing multiple sclerosis and irritable bowel disorder, is in late-stage trials which analyst estimate could be worth $5 billion. Considering this, Wedbush Securities raised its target price for Receptos stock from $211 to $408 in June, 2015. Under the proposed buyout, Celgene is offering $240 per share. The complaint alleges the shareholders will not be given a fair portion of Receptos’ assets.
