Mylan Labs (NASDAQ:MYL), another detractor, announced a slightly weaker quarter than expected as well as the acquisition of European-based Meda, which appeared expensive in our opinion. We met with management at a recent investor conference and discussed their failed hostile takeover attempt of Perrigo (PRGO), their rebuffing of Teva Pharmaceutical’s simultaneous acquisition offer, and its acquisition of Meda. Even though we believe the stock is relatively cheap, we did not receive satisfactory responses to our questions; as such we elected to sell the position.
