Executive Summary
Boston Scientific's spending spree shows no sign of letting up. With news of its Microheart deal still being digested (see Clinica No 1007, p 15), the company last week added uterine bleeding technology company BEI Medical Systems to its growing group of subsidiaries. Boston paid $95 million, or $6.84 per share for the company, a $1.32 premium on the May 13 closing price, but the price immediately exceeded by $0.26 the purchase price on day one of trading.
