John Calcagnini Quotations

If they (J&J) are going to raise their bid, it would probably be by tomorrow morning. If you can wait until the 11th hour, why not wait? You don't want to give Boston Scientific more time to sell their strategy.

J&J is a lot more diversified as a company than Boston Scientific, and they have a bigger revenue base spread over a wider area.

It seems to suggest they are pretty far apart on price, and they're supposed to have an answer in 48 hours, so we'll probably find out in short order whether this deal is going to happen or not. I think clearly a lot of people are wondering if it's going to fall apart.

It's already getting down to the 11th hour. If I had to bet one way or the other, I would bet that they're going to raise their bid.

It sounds like they are looking into any improper inducements to doctors for putting them in.

You'd almost double the sales of the U.S., potentially.
