NEW YORK & NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Former Attorney General of Louisiana Charles C. Foti, Jr., Esq. and the law firm of Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC (“KSF”) are investigating the proposed sale of Masimo Corporation (NasdaqGS: MASI) to Danaher Corporation (NYSE: DHR). Under the terms of the proposed transaction, shareholders of Masimo will receive $180.00 in cash for each share of Masimo that they own. KSF is seeking to determine whether this consideration and the process that led to it are ad.

Bridger Management sold 47,841 shares of Masimo in the fourth quarter. The move resulted in the quarter-end position value decreasing by $7.06 million.

Parkman Healthcare Partners initiated a 200,000-share stake in Masimo during the fourth quarter. The quarter-end position value rose by $26.01 million as a result.

Revolution Medicines was a top contributor during the quarter. AbbVie, by contrast, traded largely sideways, as investors continued to assess its post-patent earnings durability. While Eli Lilly delivered strong absolute performance — driven by continued GLP-1 demand and the FDA approval of Zepbound — our underweight position in the name was a significant detractor from relative results. During the quarter, we purchased Avidity Biosciences, a clinical-stage biopharma company focused on RNA therapies for rare muscle diseases, and Abivax SA, a clinical-stage biopharma company focused on chronic inflammatory diseases.

During the quarter, Baron Health Care Fund added seven new positions and exited ten positions, bringing the number of positions in the Fund to 43. We bought shares of Arcutis Biotherapeutics, Inc., a biotechnology company that sells Zoryve cream and foam for the treatment of autoimmune dermatologic conditions. We sold Cidara Therapeutics, Inc. after the company announced it was being acquired by Merck for a substantial premium.
