uk as long Reuters confirmed on thursday that the company, struggling from a
costly product recall and still under a mountain of debt in the wake of its 2006
acquisition of guidant corp, is exploring the possibility of Selling its pain
management and neurovascular intervention businesses. "I don't want to say
they're desperate to Sell, so i'll say there is a great need to do it,"Goldman
sachs analyst davidRoman said in an interview, noting that its 2011 liabilities
outweigh sources of cash. "For all we know,(Ceo ray elliott)May have bankers
breathing down his neck,"Roman said. "I don't think this a proactive change in
strategy for him.I just think it's the reality of the situation. "Shares of
boston scientific, which generates more than half its revenue from implantable
heart rhythm devices and heart stents, fell 1.3 percent on Friday after rising
initially when the news was first reported late on Thursday.The company's pain
management, or neuromodulation, business is widely viewed as the more attractive
of the two because of its potential future growth.The neurovascular intervention
business makes devices to treat vascular diseases of the brain and generated
sales of $348 million last beats by dr

billion.Selling these two units could raise net proceeds of $2.2 billion to $2.4
billion for Boston Scientific, according to JP Morgan analyst Michael
Weinstein.Neuromodulation using electrical pulses to stimulate the spinal cord
or even the brain is among the most dynamic and fastgrowing areas of the medical
technology sector.Jude are seen as possible bidders for the neurovascular
intervention business.Analysts say the move illustrates how stretched the
company really is.Boston scientific needs to refinance $2.4 billion in 2011 and
many fear the company will breach its covenants if it does not do something to
raise cash.The company's shares hit a year low of $6.31 last month on news of
the ICD recall, and have lost nearly half their value since trading at $11.77
last August.On friday, the shares traded at $6.89.Roman noted that in the past,
management had characterized the neuromodulation business as an important
strategic growth business.With the exception of its endosurgery business, boston
scientific is losing share in the remaining businesses, said roman, who has
a"Sell"Rating on the shares.Rick wise, an analyst with leerink swann, said
divesting neuromodulation would be a surprise to him since it is one of the
fastest growing businesses in boston scientific's portfolio. "Selling
neuromodulation could indicate a shift in portfolio strategy by current ceo ray
elliott, as boston scientific potentially narrows its end market reach and
focuses on stabilizing its larger franchises,"Wise said in a research note.
