Merrill maintains Amgen at buy
Amgen Inc. was maintained at buy with a $104 price objective by Merrill Lynch analyst Eric Ende after the company filed a suit in the U.S. District Court of Boston alleging that the launch of Roche's CERA would infringe on Amgen's EPO patents. Amgen received a favorable judgment in the court last year in a previous patent infringement case, and Ende said Amgen may have the upper hand in the current litigation. Shares of the Thousand Oaks, Calif.-based biotechnology company were up $1.59, or 1.98%, at $81.81 on volume of 7,697,538 shares versus the three-month running average of 8,442,710 shares.
