GlaxoSmithKline, the UK based pharmaceuticals group, received a fillip on Friday with news that Warren Buffett, the veteran US investor, had taken a small stake in the company.
Documents filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission this week showed that Berkshire Hathaway, Mr Buffett's investment company, had purchased 1.5m shares, worth about $65m (£33.1m), in GSK's American depositary receipts.
The move could help boost interest in GSK by private investors, who often follow the advice of Mr Buffett, listed by Forbes as the world's second richest man and known as "the sage of Omaha" for his highly successful investments.
The news helped lift GSK's shares onj Friday and they ended the day up 11p at £11.15, which is still well below a recent peak of more than £12.20 reached in early January. They have fallen by a quarter in the past year.
The company's shares have recently been hit after Jean-Pierre Garnier, GSK's outgoing chief executive, warned last week of a single mid-digit decline in earnings during 2008 on the back of increasing generic competition and sluggish performance on Avandia, its diabetes drug hit by a debate over its safety during 2007.
GSK faces up to six patent expiries this year, and reported a drop in earnings last year after warnings about Avandia caused prescriptions to drop by more than a fifth. On current valuations, the consensus analysts' advice is to hold GSK stock, which trades at average multiples for the sector.
Andrew Witty, the new chief executive who takes charge of GSK in late May, has pledged further efforts to boost innovation, more tailored approaches to marketing round the world, and an increasing shift into emerging markets.
Berkshire Hathaway also purchased stakes in other healthcare companies including UnitedHealth Group and WellPoint, the large health insurers, as well as Johnson & Johnson and Sanofi-Aventis (NYSE:SNY) , the pharmaceutical companies.
