I don’t think they’re in any hurry. It’s not their core business, if they want to expand vertically I think they’ll wait until risk is reduced. High level Japanese execs don’t keep their jobs by championing too much unnecessary risk.
perhaps a counter offer may force their hand however.

either way, it’s not what I fundamentally think about here. Further with the prior publicly known takeover interest mainly distraction was caused, in addition to some complication with existing partners. Focus should be to get these trials completed with good results. MEND hopefully this month, DFU to complete recruitment in next months and significant steps towards gvhd US progress over the next few months. Focus should be on adding value right now.
