WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Forest Laboratories Inc. (FRX) announced that it is filing a presentation with the Securities and Exchange Commission in response to a presentation filed by Carl Icahn on July 30, 2012.
The company said the presentation highlighted Icahn's changing story on SG&A spending, continued attempts to mislead investors, and use of cherry picked data in an effort to defend his flawed attacks on the Company's product performance. The misguided assertions in Icahn's July 30 filing expose his fundamental lack of understanding of Forest's business.
Forest Laboratories has recommended stockholders to vote for all 10 of its highly qualified director nominees on the WHITE proxy card on the company annual meeting on August 15, 2012. Forest urges shareholders NOT to sign any proxy card sent to them by the Icahn Group.
