Serono changes tack

Article Abstract:

Serono of Geneva, a leader in the multiple sclerosis market has recruited the Goldman Sachs bank to explore various strategic alternatives as a necessary move before the value of its core cash-generating business centered around its multiple sclerosis franchise starts to erode. Novartis and Roche, New York-based Pfizer, Johnson &Johnson of New Jersey and London-based GlaxoSmithKline are identified as likely bidders for the company which exited 2005 with around $600 million and holds treasury shares valued at around $650 million.
