]. Normally, he’d stay away from a company with so many generic products – 150 versus 27 branded – but it’s Watson’s pipeline that has Cramer’s attention.
Watson has 60 abbreviated new drug applications pending at the Food and Drug Administration. The pipeline’s worth $2 billion. Not bad for a company with a market cap of $3 billion.
Watson’s founder, chairman and CEO announced his retirement last year, and that’s usually a sign, Cramer said, of an impending takeover.
