10th Oct 2014 16:25

Ronald Goode, a non-executive director at Hikma Pharmaceuticals, on Thursday traded in £129,640-worth of shares in the group.The move proved a fortunate one for Goode, as the company's share price fell more than 3% in Friday's trading after the group learned that distribution of its colchicine 0.6mg capsules has been put under a temporary restraining order.The order was granted to Takeda Pharmaceuticals, with litigation between the two companies expected to continue later this month.Hikma only received FDA approval for the capsules on 30 September.The FTSE 250-listed group said it would "work constructively for a positive outcome".Goode traded in a total of 7,000 at 1,852p apiece.
