February

Corp. is reportedly mulling a spin off of its development and
manufacturing division, Elan Drug Technology (EDT), according to
the Sunday Times

biopharmaceuticals arm, which markets its multiple sclerosis drug
Tysabri (natalizumab; co-developed with Biogen Idec), from the EDT
unit, which could be worth up to $1.5 billion. Reuters
