More on Bristol-Myers Squibb
Description from Wikipedia:
Bristol-Myers Squibb (NYSE: BMY), colloquially referred to as BMS, is a pharmaceutical company. Founded in 1887 by William McLaren Bristol and John Ripley Myers in Clinton, NY (both were graduates of Hamilton College), Bristol-Myers merged with Squibb Corporation in 1989. James M. Cornelius is the New York City-based company's Chairman and CEO.
Bristol-Myers Squibb manufactures prescription pharmaceuticals in several therapeutic areas, including cancer, HIV/AIDS, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hepatitis, rheumatoid arthritis and psychiatric disorders. It is also the parent company of Mead Johnson Nutrition, which manufactures nutritional products such as Enfamil baby formulas and infant vitamin supplements like Tri-Vi-Sol. Bristol-Myers Squibb has a mission to "Extend and Enhance Human Life" and works to discover and develop medicines in areas of serious unmet medical need.
BMS' primary R&D sites are located in Lawrenceville, New Jersey (formerly Squibb) and Wallingford, Connecticut (formerly Bristol-Myers), with other sites around the US, in Ireland, and in other countries.
A major restructuring has been implemented which involves focusing on the pharmaceutical business and biologic products along with productivity initiatives, cost-cutting and streamlining business operations.
In 2005, BMS was among 53 entities that contributed the maximum of $250,000 to the second inauguration of President George W. Bush.
BMS is a Fortune 500 Company (#129 in 2007 list).
On July 22, 2009, BMS offered to acquire the biotechnology firm, Medarex, for $16 per share.
