Remember Safeguard Scientifics? The Wayne investment firm, run by Warren "Pete" Musser from the 1950s into the early 2000s, exploiting with varying degrees of success the eletronics, industrial-conglomerate and Internet stock bubbles, has in the past few years built a list of 17 mostly life-sciences and software plays, where it's "deployed" more than $130 million in major ownership stakes. Check it out in Safeguard's new earnings statement here.
Safeguard's next chance to score big gains through an IPO will be Conshohocken-based NuPathe Corp., which is developing a severe-migraine-headache patch.
Like Safeguard's last two IPOs, human-bladder-regeneration developer Tengion and molecule-tester Clarient, NuPathe is what venture capitalists used to call a "pre-profit" company.
Both Tengion and Clarient shares have fallen since they went public. Will NuPathe be any different?
