Flurry of Biotech Mergers and Acquisitions Bodes Well for PharmaCyte Biotech

BALTIMORE, Apr. 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Goldman Small Cap Research, a stock market research firm specializing on the small cap and microcap sectors, announced today that it has issued a new article on PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. (OTCQB – PMCB), a publicly traded clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing and preparing treatments for cancer and diabetes.

In the article on the Company, analyst Rob Goldman outlines the impact the current M&A environment and the Company's standing.

"The market is in the midst of a flurry of biotech M&A and PharmaCyte Biotech may be sitting in the catbird seat as an unusually attractive potential target. After all, major pharmaceutical companies are in panic mode.  They are staring in the face of patent expirations on key products representing hundreds of millions or billions in revenue on one side, and competition for their big sellers from peers and upstarts in mid-late stage clinical trials on the other side.  To fend off these attacks, management teams have entered into a quasi-arms race in their quest to rapidly add companies via acquisition that complement their current therapeutic categories.  For example, Teva Pharmaceutical is buying Auspex Pharmaceutical for more than $3 billion, which represents a 50% premium to the previous day's close for a non-revenue generating company with products in a series of clinical trials." 

Goldman further noted, "Since the Company's Cell-in-a-Box^(R) live cell encapsulation technology has such broad potential applications, it could emerge as a universal therapy for the treatment of multiple forms of cancer and diabetes and compete with a number of existing, billion dollar products, potentially making PharmaCyte Biotech the prototypical acquisition target."  

"Most early stage and mid-stage companies such as PharmaCyte Biotech are keenly aware of big pharma's desire to acquire firms with unique technology that can potentially treat diseases representing billions in market opportunity, and are therefore wisely built for potential sale. As a result, early and mid-stage clinical trials are designed not just for maximum efficacy and safety but to attract the attention of the world's biggest pharmaceutical players. With three separate clinical trials this year featuring its proprietary technology, PharmaCyte Biotech could be high on the industry's radar screen once the trials are completed and the results are released."
