"We are committed to offering world-class preclinical toxicology services in China to global customers and committed to delivering this in the way which most benefits our customers and shareholders in longer term," said Dr. Ge Li, WuXi Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "This facility is being built through our already budgeted capital expenditures and we will not require additional funding. We can leverage the expertise and capability from our AppTec acquisition as well as our US toxicology team to move rapidly in getting GLP compliance. Proceeding with our original plans to operate this facility independently will allow WuXi and our shareholders to receive maximum benefit over the long term."
