NEW YORK, September 28 (newratings.com) - Analyst Ron Ellis of Prudential Financial maintains his "underweight" rating on Millennium Pharmaceuticals (MLNM.NAS). The target price is set to $10.

In a research note published yesterday, the analyst mentions that Millennium Pharmaceuticals is acquiring AnorMed for $515 million or $12 per share, representing a 21% premium to the latter company's closing price. The analyst expresses his concern regarding Millennium Pharmaceuticals’ ability to properly leverage AnorMed's Mozobil product, which is scheduled to be launched in the US in 2008. The acquisition is expected to be dilutive to the company's finances and profitability, the analyst adds.
