11/9/2004 15:03 | Eyetech- its drug Macugen has priority review status by the FDA. Does any one know what percentage of the Company IBT owns after its flotation? I had an email from a US stock subscription tipster promoting a company that sounds as if it is Eyetech. He reckons it will be like investing in AOL at $0.53 and selling it at its peak for $93. I am now trying to run through the figures on Eyetech and IBT's share. | greenpastures | |
26/7/2004 15:04 | ibt not been having such a good time recently so nice to hear this... Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. International Biotechnology Trust plc ('IBT') is pleased to note that Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ticker - 'AUXL'), were successful in their Initial Public Offering ('IPO') on NASDAQ at a price of $7.50 per share on Friday 23 July 2004, raising $41.3 million. At 20 July 2004, IBT's holding in the company was valued at the Director's valuation of £0.64 million. As Auxilium is now a publicly listed company, going forward IBT's holding will be valued based on the closing daily share price on NASDAQ. In accordance with BVCA valuation guidelines, a discount of 25% will be applied to the quoted price to reflect liquidity constraints on IBT's holding arising from a 180 day lock up. At close of business on Friday 23 July 2004 the stock was trading at $7.20 per share, which including the discount, would value IBT's holding at £0.5m. | rambutan2 | |
01/6/2004 14:29 | Eyetech Pharmaceut. (EYET : NASDAQ : US$44.32) Net Change: 3.40, % Change: 8.31%, Volume: 1,438,900 Can you see as far as August 27? Eyetech will have its wet age-related macular degeneration drug Macugen reviewed by the FDA on August 27. The meeting is earlier than expected and is seen by some as a positive harbinger. The drug targets the same condition QLT's (QLT) Visudyne targets and could put pressure on QLT. We say "could" because some analysts, such as BMO Nesbitt Burns think the products can be used in concert. Nonetheless, August is still a ways away. Options players might want to consider a long options straddle. Although usually expensive, they're often a fabulous way to play these FDA meetings. | rambutan2 | |

INTERNATIONAL BIOTECHNOLOGY TRUST Plc The Board of International Biotechnology Trust Plc ('IBT') today announces its unaudited Interim Results for the six months ended 29 February 2004. Summary Net asset value per share rose by 13.2% to 127.7p NASDAQ Biotech Index fell 10.3% (sterling adjusted), Merrill Lynch Small Cap Biotech Index rose by 3.0% (sterling adjusted) and the Bloomberg UK Biotech Index rose by 10.7% The return on IBT's quoted portfolio was 31.8% calculated on a monthly time-weighted return basis assuming mid-month cash flows, and 25.3% on an unweighted basis (ignoring the timing of transactions) Eyetech and CancerVax completed IPOs on NASDAQ Write-downs of two unquoted companies amounted to a fall in net assets of £2.8 million or 5% of net assets at 31 August 2003 New investments in two quoted companies; sales of five quoted companies No new unquoted investments; follow-on investments in Genosis and Auxilium Two new unquoted investments subsequent to the end of the reporting period - Dynogen and Archemix Total net assets at 29 February 2004: £61.1million (31 August 2003: £53.9million) Andrew Barker, Chairman, commented: A number of biotech initial public offerings (IPOs) have taken place in the US. I am delighted to report that two of IBT's unquoted holdings, CancerVax and Eyetech, have completed IPOs during the period under review. 2003 was a good year for the biotech market with very positive newsflow from the sector. Underlying fundamentals remain strong with a number of new product launches, maturing product pipelines, access to capital and strong partnering interest from large pharmaceutical companies. However, investor expectations for the biotech sector are high and the biotech market is expected to continue to be volatile, so a long term investment view is advised, in line with that of the Board. That said, we remain optimistic about the prospects for the IBT portfolio. | rambutan2 | |

04/2/2004 15:26 | INTERNATIONAL BIOTECHNOLOGY TRUST PLC ('IBT') IPO OF EYETECH PHARMACEUTICALS INC. International Biotechnology Trust Plc ('IBT') is pleased to announce that Eyetech Pharmaceuticals Inc.('Eyetech') (ticker - EYET), had an Initial Public Offering (IPO) on NASDAQ at a price of $21 per share on Friday 30 January 2004. At 31 August 2003, IBT's holding in the company was valued at the Directors' valuation of £3.2 million. As Eyetech is now a publicly quoted company, going forward IBT's holding will be valued based on the mid-market quoted share price. In accordance with IBT's valuation policies, a discount of 25% will be applied to the mid-market quoted price to reflect liquidity constraints on IBT's holding. Based on the closing price on February 3rd of $30.40 per share, this would equate to a valuation of £8.9 million on the preferred stock converted to restricted common stock. In addition, IBT has converted warrants in Eyetech into restricted common stock which represents an additional value of £1.2 million, giving a total value for the entire holding of £10.1 million. This represents an uplift of £6.9 million to the 31 August 2003 valuation (uplift per share of 14.41p) and an IRR to date on the investment of 67.8%, after allowing for the 25% discount. Kate Bingham, of the Trust's investment adviser - Schroder Ventures Life Sciences, said 'We are delighted by the level of investor enthusiasm for Eyetech. This success demonstrates the value of IBT's investment strategy to build a small, concentrated portfolio of biotech companies that have the potential to generate substantial value. We believe that Macugen has blockbuster potential and will bring real benefits to the large numbers of people who are affected by age-related macular degeneration - a leading cause of blindness in the elderly.' Eyetech Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company that specializes in the development and commercialization of novel therapeutics to treat diseases of the eye. Eyetech's initial focus is on diseases affecting the back of the eye, particularly the retina. The company's most advanced product candidate is Macugen(TM) (pegaptanib sodium), which it is developing for the treatment of the wet form of age-related macular degeneration and for the treatment of diabetic macular edema. | rambutan2 | |
