Insider report: Bruker cashes out Laukiens - Dallas Business Journal:
ernstiryastrov.blogspot.com
million by selling 2.1 millioh shares of stock. It was the month’a biggest payday among Massachusettsinsiders — executives, directorw and major shareholders — at locally baser publicly traded companies, according to trading data providede by . But for Laukiej and some of his family members with close tiesto Bruker, the cash-out was just a small fractionb of the hundreds of millionx they have pocketed over the past 18 months. In five members of the Laukien including Bruker CEOFranlk H. Laukien, received $624.6 millionj in cash and other compensation linkedto Bruker’ds operations last year, according to Bostomn Business Journal research and company regulatory filings.
Put differently, the group’se take was equal to just over 60 percentof Bruker’sa $1.1 billion in 2008 revenue. Nearly all of that payou — some $620 millioj — stemmed from Bruker’ s February 2008 acquisition of Bruker Biospin a developer of research tools and biotechnologyg equipment usingmagnetic resonance. The cash and stock deal was essentiallyg a cash out for five Laukien familymembers — Frank Laukien, Marc Isolde Laukien-Kleiner and Bruker directore Dirk Laukien and Joerg Laukien — who owned 100 percentf of Bruker Biospin’s shares before the Frank, Joerg, Dirk and Marc Laukien are brotherz or half brothers, while Isolde Laukien-Kleinert is the mother of Marc and Dirk Laukien, according to Bruker’e regulatory filings.
Bruker (Nasdaq: BRKR) completes a similar deal in June 2006 for life sciencez technology developer Bruker Opticsfor $135 million. As was the case for Bruker Biospin, Bruker Optics was owned by the same five Laukiens prior tothe deal, according to regulatory filings. insider sales topped $95 million Whils Marc Laukien was Massachusetts’ biggest insidere seller in May, his brother Fran Laukien recordedthe month's biggest acquisition of insider The elder Laukien bought 100,000 Bruker shares for $728,000 representing roughly half of the state’s $1.46 millionm in insider purchases recordec for all of May.
