Home > Press > Arrowhead Closes Private Offering with Net Proceeds of $60 Million - Financing led by RA Capital Management, LLC with a syndicate of healthcare-focused institutions
Arrowhead Research Corporation (NASDAQ: ARWR), a biopharmaceutical company developing targeted RNAi therapeutics, today announced that on October 11, 2013 it closed a previously announced private offering of common and convertible preferred stock. The financing, which was oversubscribed, had net proceeds of $60 million, after deducting commissions and other offering expenses payable by the company. It was led by RA Capital Management, LLC and included a syndicate of new and existing institutional investors.
"This capital raise enables us to aggressively build on the success of the ARC-520 Phase 1 study," said Dr. Christopher Anzalone, Arrowhead's President and CEO. "We have the resources to advance ARC-520 through the upcoming Phase 2a study in chronic HBV patients and a multi-national Phase 2b planned for the second half of 2014. The financing also enables us to expand on the DPC delivery platform by funding two new candidates through clinical proof of concept and advancing our pre-clinical pipeline with additional IND-ready candidates. We see the strong demand from high quality institutions as a vote of confidence in our technology, strategic plan, and execution."
3,071,672 shares of common stock were issued at $5.86 per share. 46,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock were issued at $1,000 per share. Each share of preferred stock is convertible into 170.6 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $5.86 per share of common stock. The Series C preferred was issued to those investors who desire to not own in excess of 9.99% of Arrowhead's outstanding voting securities following the financing. The Series C Preferred is non-voting above a beneficial ownership cap of 9.99% and carries no dividend or liquidation preference.
Jefferies LLC and Piper Jaffray & Co. acted as joint placement agents for the offering and Trout Capital acted as a financial advisor to the company.
About ARC-520
Approximately 350 million people worldwide are chronically infected with the hepatitis B virus. Chronic HBV infection can lead to cirrhosis of the liver and is responsible for 80% of primary liver cancers globally. Arrowhead's RNAi-based candidate ARC-520 is designed to treat chronic HBV infection by reducing the expression and release of new viral particles and key viral proteins. The goal is to achieve a functional cure, which is an immune clearant state characterized by hepatitis B s-antigen negative serum with or without sero-conversion. The siRNAs in ARC-520 intervene at the mRNA level, upstream of where nucleotide and nucleoside analogues act. In transient and transgenic mouse models of HBV infection, a single co-injection of Arrowhead's DPC delivery vehicle with cholesterol-conjugated siRNA targeting HBV sequences resulted in multi-log knockdown of HBV RNA, proteins and viral DNA with long duration of effect. In a chimpanzee chronically infected with HBV and high viremia and antigenemia, ARC-520 induced rapid reductions of 90-95% in HBV DNA, e-antigen, and s-antigen. Arrowhead has completed enrollment in a phase 1 single ascending dose study in normal volunteers, which the company expects to follow with a phase 2a study in chronic HBV patients.
About Arrowhead Research Corporation

The Hives, Eagles of Death Metal and The Willowz at The Grove
In the world of straight-ahead rock bands, there are two things that will always keep the fans interested: Edgy guitar lines and a sweet mustache. Fortunately the two headliners at The Grove this Sunday have generous amounts of both. The Hives first landed on the American punk radar back in 2002 with their album "Veni Vidi Vicious". Since then, this five pack of sharp-dressed Swedes have proven that just because your band wears matching clothes doesn't mean you can't kick ass. Prepare to hear their new collection of jittery, garage- rock anthems like "Tick Tick Boom" off the "The Black and White Album". Eagles of Death Metal will also be hitting the stage with full force. Bushy-lipped front man Jesse "The Devil" Hughes and Josh "Baby Duck" Homme (Queens of the Stone-Age) make up the bulk of this big riff rock band. They of course will be hocking tunes from their upcoming October release "Heart On".

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Berkshire Hathaway ( BRK.A) subsidiary MidAmerican Energy's $5.6 billion cash deal for Las Vegas utility NV Energy ( NVE) sheds light on the conglomerate's plans in renewable energy as large investments in solar energy plants built by First Solar ( FSLR) and SunPower ( SPRW) come online in coming years. MidAmerican Energy, which recently bought three of the largest solar energy plants in the world, is poised to be among the world's top generators of renewable energy by 2015. Already, Berkshire's energy subsidiary is the top generator of wind energy in the U.S. and has renewable assets of 1,830 megawatts, according to company projections. Acquisitions such as NV Energy and Berkshire's stated plan for $100 billion in capital expenditure at MidAmerican Energy over the next 10 to 15 years also indicate Berkshire will be an aggressor in the utilities sector in coming years. Wednesday's deal, which values NV Energy at $23.75 a share, or an enterprise value of about $10 billion, will allow MidAmerican Energy to scale its significant investment in solar and wind energy generation, according to Wall Street analysts. Also see: Short Sales Decline Amid Rising Home Prices: RealtyTrac >> "NV Energy's desire to invest in renewables and related transmission assets in Nevada parallels MidAmerican' Energy's significant investments in wind and, more recently, solar generation," Peter D. Quinn a Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst wrote of Wednesday's acquisition. MidAmerican's three solar plant investments, for instance, take advantage of California's goal to shift its energy generation mix towards renewable energy in coming years. NV Energy will also complement Mid American's natural gas pipeline infrastructure, particularly in the western parts of the U.S. MidAmerican Energy will pay a 23% premium for Las Vegas-based NV Energy over Wednesday's closing price of $19.28, however, the deal is just a 9.8% premium to NV Energy's 52-week high hit on April 30, according to Quinn of BAML. MidAmerican's acquisition has already been agreed by both companies' boards of directors. However, it will face review by Nevada officials given NV Energy's status as a regulated utility. The deal will also face review by the Department of Justice and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, according to Citigroup analysts. Also see: Mortgage REIT Sell-Off Overdone on Rate Fears: KBW, RBC >> " There doesn't appear to be any antitrust issues at the surface," writes Shahriar Pourreza of Citigroup, who highlights the Nevada Public Utilities Commission as the regulator that may push back against Wednesday's deal, given the prospect of job cuts and synergy. MidAmerican expects to complete its acquisition by the first quarter of 2014 and will operate NV Energy as a separate corporate subsidiary under its current name. The company will continue to be headquartered in Las Vegas, according to a press release. " We will have the opportunity to combine MidAmerican's expertise in renewable energy with Nevada's vast renewable resources for the benefit of our customers and our state," Michael Yackira, President and CEO of NV Energy, said in a statement.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Herff Jones, A VARSITY Achievement Company with a portfolio of products designed to celebrate academic and athletic achievement, today announced the launch of its innovative mobile application, "HJ Class Ring." The app, aimed at high school students, allows individuals to virtually design class rings, try them on, and then share their favorite rings with friends and family via social media or email.
"Herff Jones has a long and proud tradition of ensuring high school students capture the spirit, pride and comradery of high school with distinctive class rings," said Donald Agin, General Manager, Scholastic Division, at Herff Jones. "With the launch of the HJ Class Ring App, Herff Jones is now providing a new, modern way for students to explore the tradition of class rings before they make their purchase. We are gratified that students are already engaging with the app to design and share their perfect class ring."
With the new app, students can quickly design their rings with options that include ring style, metal (gold or silver) and stone color. Once these ring options have been selected, the student's phone camera is enabled, providing an overlay image that allows them to virtually place the ring on a finger.
"The app is a playful and engaging means of 'updating' the high school ring experience for today's students," added Mandy Wilsey, Marketing Director for Scholastic at Herff Jones. "We know that to reach high school students we must be connecting with them on their mobile devices."
The app also provides high school students and their parents the ability to easily browse the class ring catalog or locate their local Herff Jones Representative to make a purchase or learn more about Herff Jones offerings.
The app is free and is currently available for both iPhone (herffjones.com/iphone) and Droid phones (herffjones.com/droid). Additionally, the app can be found in both marketplaces by searching "HJ Class Ring."

Truck bomb kills 5 U.S. soldiers
Attack occurs in area of Kurdish-Arab tensions
MOSUL, Iraq – A suicide truck bomber attacked a police headquarters Friday in the tense northern city of Mosul, killing five U.S. soldiers in the deadliest strike against American forces in Iraq in 13 months.
The bomber evaded several concrete barriers and detonated his truck loaded with explosives at the entrance to the local headquarters of Iraq's national police.
A U.S. military convoy passing at the time provided the bomber with a "target of opportunity," said U.S. army spokesman Maj. Derrick Cheng. In addition to the U.S. troops, three Iraqis were killed – a soldier, a policeman and a civilian. Sixty people were injured, police said.
On a surprise visit to Baghdad earlier this week, President Barack Obama touted security gains in Iraq. He said it was time for Iraqis to take full control of their country, in keeping with plans to pull U.S. combat troops back from the cities by June 30 and for all combat brigades to leave the country by August 2010.
However, Baghdad residents have been rattled by a recent increase in violence, raising concerns that the capital could slip back into chaos. On the day before Obama arrived, six car bombings in Baghdad claimed the lives of 36 people.
Mosul and surrounding areas have not seen even relative peace, and U.S. troops are increasingly called on there to try to prevent new outbreaks of violence. On any day, Mosul is rocked by bombings against its civilian population. Also on Friday, a Sunni politician who had run an unsuccessful bid for local government in January was assassinated on the street.
The explosion at the compound sent glass flying, destroyed five armored vehicles and charred two other U.S. vehicles, Iraqi security sources said.
Many of the wounded Iraqis were civilians who lived in neighboring houses. Security forces sealed off the area, and helicopters roared overhead, while smoke filled the sky. Two people were arrested after the bombing, according to the U.S. military and Iraqi security officials.
It was the second truck bomb attack in two weeks against a national police base in Mosul. Eight people were killed on March 31 when a suicide truck bomber entered a different base. His forged papers said he was carrying construction supplies.
The latest bombing raised to 4,271 the number of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq since 2003. But the numbers have dropped dramatically in the relative calm that followed a buildup of troops in 2007. Last month, nine U.S. troops were killed.
The last time five died in a single combat incident in Iraq was in March 2008, when a suicide bomber attacked a foot patrol in Baghdad.
Mosul, the capital of Nineveh province, and Diyala province to the east remain rife with tension and are still considered dangerous.
Nineveh has been burdened by Kurdish-Arab tensions. Since 2003, the two main Kurdish parties in Iraq have dominated the province's political life. Arabs, who initially rejected the U.S.-sponsored political process, are now seeking to assert their will after winning provincial elections.
Kurds and Arabs are bickering over the future of areas north of Mosul that the Kurds argue should be annexed to Kurdistan. The Sunni insurgency has played upon Arabs' fears of the Kurds, as well as the alienation of former higher-ranking military commanders who were marginalized in the first years after the American invasion.
Such frictions are also playing out in Diyala and Kirkuk provinces, along a 300-mile "green line" that separates the rest of Iraq from its Kurdish region. The U.S. military is increasingly playing the role of a mediator between the sides to avert a miscalculation that could spill over into greater violence.
The senior U.S. commander in Iraq, Gen. Ray Odierno, suggested in interviews that U.S. combat troops could stay on both in Diyala and Nineveh's cities after June 30 when U.S. troops are required to leave Iraq's cities.

Matt McLennan has always played the odds. At 17, the Papua New Guinea native signed up for a summer camp in Australia because he heard there were nine girls to every boy. The strategy worked, sort of: He met Monika, who would eventually become his wife, though it took him nearly a decade to reach that goal.
"I had to wait my turn," says the father of three.
Such lessons in great odds, patience, and humility have served him well. McLennan, 43, is now part of the team that took over First Eagle Global (ticker: SGENX) when famed investor Jean-Marie Eveillard retired in 2009.
McLennan and his team are following in the footsteps of Jean-Marie Eveillard. Jordan Hollender for Barron's
McLennan manages the fund along with Abhay Deshpande and Kimball Brooker, the team handpicked by Eveillard, who eschewed marquee names in lieu of managers who matched his patient approach, says Morningstar analyst Bridget Hughes. Eveillard remains senior advisor to First Eagle funds, and the team has continued his strict value orientation along with an eye on the big picture. Right now that means gold -- which, at more than 5% of the portfolio, is the fund's largest holding -- as a potential hedge against inflation. The 137 stocks in the fund also are little-changed from when Eveillard ran it, and annual turnover is just 11%, on average. The stocks are primarily companies that have pricing power because they produce a scarce asset. That gives these businesses a resilience during economic downturns.
Like Eveillard, who famously avoided the technology boom of the late 1990s and the financial bubble 10 years later -- the fund's 15-year record beats 99% of its peers -- the new team has been willing to stay out of big chunks of the market, including Brazil, Russia, India, and China, known as the BRICs. That has led to the fund holding a higher-than-usual amount of cash, now 18% of assets.
"It can be lonely, but we are not followers. We plant seeds and watch the plant grow," McLennan says.
The fund's high cash position and large stake in gold have kept it behind in the past year, up 8.7%, while its benchmark, the MSCI World Index, rose 12.2%. Still, the $37 billion fund, which has grown 89% in the past three years, trounced its peers in the world-allocation category, and it has beaten the benchmark, as well. It returned an 8.8% annualized return over the past three years, versus the category's 6.3% rise.
The team travels to companies all over the world, but McLennan says the approach is very document-driven, because the true story about a company is usually found in the footnotes and cash-flow statements. The managers want to see free cash flow rising and sustainable, and conservative liabilities. When valuing the enterprise, they give credit for surplus cash and penalties for debt and other liabilities. The process leads them to companies with strong balance sheets and modest valuations.
The fund is global, which means their process can direct them to companies in the U.S.; right now, the portfolio has 34% of its assets in U.S. stocks. One example is Microsoft MSFT -0.5813953488372093% Microsoft Corp. U.S.: Nasdaq USD56.43 -0.33 -0.5813953488372093% /Date(1469651306097-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 22846550 P/E Ratio 27.55170731707317 Market Cap 443182066894.531 Dividend Yield 2.549529930419079% Rev. per Employee 723051 More quote details and news » (MSFT), which has had weak earnings recently. But McLennan thinks its low debt, net cash, and 35% operating margins give it plenty of cushion to weather a soft PC market. "Just like Coke didn't have to invent Burgundy wine or hot coffee, Microsoft doesn't need to invent every new category of software," McLennan says. "It's enough for Coke to dominate sugared water, and for Microsoft to have a dominant position in operating systems, office applications, and server software."
Much of Microsoft's revenue comes from business, since entire information-technology departments are built around its software. Its revenue is recurring, and free cash flow has been rising. Plus, McLennan says it has more than doubled operating profits in the past decade and bought back approximately 20% of the stock in the past half-dozen years.

Although most American cars are painted by Fanuc robots, you probably haven't heard of the Japan-based manufacturing company that dominates the market for servo motors and related factory-automation controllers, robotics, and related machine tools.
But like Microsoft, says McLennan, Fanuc has more than doubled operating profits over the past decade, and repurchased about 10% of its stock in the past six years. "It has net cash on the balance sheet and supports 35% operating margins through the business cycle, giving it great resilience," he says.

"The economics of building up is much more effective than building a new building.

- Bloomberg•2 years agoGlobal Tourism M&A Doubles as Online Agencies Squeeze Incumbents
Global mergers and acquisitions in tourism more than doubled in value in 2014 as low borrowing costs and growing competition fueled the busiest year in seven for deals in the industry. Last year's 596 announced deals included Anbang Insurance Group Co.'s purchase of the landmark Waldorf Astoria hotel in Manhattan and Blackstone Group LP (BX) 's acquisition of the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas hotel and casino. The increasing clout of online travel agencies and other Web-based services is threatening the earnings of hotels and tour operators, pushing them to become bigger and go digital. "In tourism there are great opportunities because it is a growing market, but it is also very competitive, and competition is growing," said Angelo Rossini, a tourism analyst at Euromonitor International.

NFL power rankings: Week 1
Associated Press
The Jets relied on a tough defense in 2010 to get to the AFC title game for a second straight year. The D will be solid again, and they picked up embattled WR Plaxico Burress to add offensive punch, but QB Mark Sanchez doesn't wow me, and RB LaDainian Tomlinson ain't getting any younger.

European real estate investment and asset management firm Catalyst Capital has acquired the freehold of the landmark office building Arkwright House in Manchester for GBP11.05 million.
Arkwright House is a Grade-II listed building in Parsonage Gardens behind Deansgate in the heart of Manchester. It was designed in a neo-classical style by local architect, Harry Fairhurst, for the English Sewing Cotton Company and completed in 1937.
The building comprises ground and seven upper floors, totalling 86,970 sq ft, of which three quarters is vacant. There are three tenants, Crowe Clark Whitehill and Howgate, Sable & Partners in office space and a Revolution Bar on the ground floor.
Catalyst Capital is working up plans for a comprehensive refurbishment and extension of the building, which would increase its overall size to just less than 100,000 sq ft and provide individual floorplates of 15,000 sq ft.
Guy Wilson, a partner of Catalyst Capital, says: "Arkwright House allows us to continue our strategy of purchasing regional office properties with scope for asset enhancement in recovering markets.
"We will be undertaking a major repositioning of this property for completion in 2015. We are seeking to capitalise on the lack of future grade A office space in Manchester City Centre.
"We continue to look for similar office investments throughout the UK."

Why the Eyes, Ears, and Nose are Near the Mouth. If you had no eyes,
ears, or nose, you might just as well be dead; and you soon would be, if
you had no one to feed you and guide you about and take care of you.
Naturally, all three of these scouts and spies of the body, which warn
us of danger and guide us to food and shelter, are near the mouth, at
the head-end of the body. The nose by means of which we smell food, to
see whether it is sweet and good or not, is directly above the mouth;
the eyes are above and on each side, like the lamps of an automobile,
but swinging in sockets like search-lights; while the ears are a couple
of inches behind, on each side of us, for catching from the sea of air
the waves that we call sound.
You could almost guess what each of these is for, just by looking at it.
The nose and the ears are open and hollow because air must pass into
them in order to bring us odors or sounds; while the eyes are solid,
somewhat like big glass marbles, to receive light--because light can go
right through anything that is transparent. Eyes, ears, and nose all
began on the surface, and sank gradually into the head, so as to be
surrounded and protected, leaving just opening enough at the surface to
allow smells, light-rays, and sound-waves to enter; and all of them have
at their bottom, or deepest part, a sensitive patch of surface, which
catches the light, or the smells, or the sounds, and sends them by a
special nerve to the brain.
These three sets of organs have gradually and slowly grown into the
shape in which we now find them, in order to do the particular kind of
smelling, seeing, and hearing that will be most useful to us. Every kind
of animal has a slightly different shape and arrangement of eye, of ear,
and of nose to fit his particular business; but in all animals they
are built upon the same simple, general plan.

Don't let society get you down and ruin your body image. You're beautiful. Not convinced? Do you think you need a bigger chest to get that promotion or to snag a quality man? Well, it's your life. A new procedure can take fat cells from your belly or butt, mix 'em up with stem cells, inject them into your mammos, and suddenly your boobs will start to grow.The whole thing can be done in less than an hour, allowing you to sneak away on your lunch break to get a boost to your breasts. The growth occurs over six months, so it's not a sudden change like implants. It's also your own body fat, so you won't feel like someone stapled a couple of soccer balls to your chest. The procedure is initially intended for women who've had mastectomies, which is great, but it surely won't be long before this becomes the next Botox. Seriously though… you don't need it.

This paper proposes a discriminative framework for efficiently aligning images. Although conventional Active Appearance Models (AAMs)-based approaches have achieved some success, they suffer from the generalization problem, i.e., how to align any image with a generic model. We treat the iterative image alignment problem as a process of maximizing the score of a trained two-class classifier that is able to distinguish correct alignment (positive class) from incorrect alignment (negative class). During the modeling stage, given a set of images with ground truth landmarks, we train a conventional Point Distribution Model (PDM) and a boosting-based classifier, which acts as an appearance model. When tested on an image with the initial landmark locations, the proposed algorithm iteratively updates the shape parameters of the PDM via the gradient ascent method such that the classification score of the warped image is maximized. We use the term Boosted Appearance Models (BAMs) to refer to the learned shape and appearance models, as well as our specific alignment method. The proposed framework is applied to the face alignment problem. Using extensive experimentation, we show that, compared to the AAM-based approach, this framework greatly improves the robustness, accuracy, and efficiency of face alignment by a large margin, especially for unseen data.

Americans James E. Rothman, 62, professor of biomedical sciences at Yale University; Randy W. Schekman, 64, professor of cell and developmental biology at the University of California, Berkeley; and German-born Thomas C. Sudhof, 57, professor in the School of Medicine at Stanford University.
For their discoveries of how hormones, enzymes and other key materials are transported within cells, a process known as "vesicle traffic."
The discovery solves the mystery of how animal cells organize their internal transportation system to direct molecules to the correct place.
This helps explain how certain illnesses, including diabetes, tetanus and many immune diseases, work.
James E. Rothman: "This is not an overnight thing. Most of it has been accomplished and developed over many years, if not decades."
Randy W. Schekman: "As far as my lab goes, I was excited about what we were doing yesterday and will be excited about the work we are doing tomorrow."
Thomas C. Sudhof: "At least in the United States, which is now my home, there is a lot of soul-searching about the sense of science. And I hope and believe that I can do a little bit to help clarify the positions."

Was nearly 40% of private-sector job growth in December subsidized by government?
Friday, January 04, 2013
The U.S. economy created 168,000 private-sector jobs in December. But all private-sector jobs are not alike, of course. One way to examine them is by determining which are the mostly the result of market forces and which are the result of debt-fueled government subsidies
. Alan Tonelson of the U.S. Business and Industry Council:
This mornings jobs report shows that the economys subsidized private sector (industries like health care services that receive big government subsidies) is back as a major source of new hiring. If a stronger but sustainable U.S. recovery depends on reinvigorating industries not heavily dependent on government largesse, then this hiring out-performance by the subsidized private sector is a bearish indicator.

Larger animals have sturdier bones than smaller animals. A BIO mouse's skeleton is only a few percent of its body weight, compared to 16% for an elephant. To see why this must be so, recall, from Example 8.10, that the stress on the femur for a man standing on one leg is 1.4% of the bone's tensile strength. Suppose we scale this man up by a factor of 10 in all dimensions, keeping the same body proportions. Use the data for Example 8.10 to compute the following.
a. Both the inside and outside diameter of the femur, the region of cortical bone, will increase by a factor of 10. What will be the new cross-section area?
b. The man's body will increase by a factor of 10 in each dimension. What will be his new mass?
c. If the scaled-up man now stands on one leg, what fraction of the tensile strength is the stress on the femur?

The New York Times, whistling past the financial graveyard, paused over the weekend to smear the Mises Institute, Ron Paul, our other scholars, hardcore libertarianism, and me. Why? Because our ideas and our youth movement are gaining real traction. It is in effect a compliment. They have never faced opposition like ours before, and Ron Paul's tremendous resonance with young people has only made things worse from the Times's point of view.
