From Exel's 10Q: We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and committed funding to be received from collaborators will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash needs for at least the next two years. EXEL had a bit more than $130M in cash and s/t term investments at 9/30. Since GNOM is not likely to be a cash drain (EXEL is not retaining GNOM personnel) it looks like EXEL just bought itself between 1 and 2 years of liquidity in return for stock. Unless there's something I'm not getting, looks like a pretty good deal.
