Buffalo Wild Wings Go and Dunkin Donuts open in MacArthur
MACARTHUR, WV (WVNS) — Inside the Buffalo Wild Wings Go in MacArthur, crew members prepared for their grand opening, and Beckley- Raleigh County Chamber of Commerce and Little General Store representatives cut the ribbon on the new business and shared donuts and coffee.
'We're super excited that we've had all the community involvement,' said Buffalo Wild Wings Go Shift Supervisor Regina Goins, moments before the store opening on Friday, April 4, 2025. 'People were outside camping at seven o'clock when we were getting ready to leave. So we're just super, super excited and cannot wait for everyone to come in and support us and enjoy this new opportunity with us.'
Outside the store, dozens of people braved a downpour as they waited on the line for the store to open its doors. A promotion offered the first 50 customers free wings for one year, according to the waiting customers.
Some folks even camped overnight to be among the first group of customers.
'We went out, pretty early in the morning, twelve or a little bit after, and walked the whole way,' said Jack Knapper, who said he showed up shortly after midnight to wait.

Landon Keeton had brought his younger sister, Lily Keeton, at around 8:30 a.m., he said.
The two had been waiting for nearly two hours.
Lily said she didn't have a favorite flavor of wing sauce.
'I don't really eat wings that much,' she said, adding, 'It's free wings.'
Matthew Hensley, who was also waiting for the store to open, said he liked Honey BBQ wings.
'It's just an amazing flavor. I love it, ' he said. 'I just need the protein and all the calories. I'm trying to gain some weight. I play football for Independence.'
Inside the store, Charlie Houck of Little General Stores passed a box of donuts out the door to the crowd, as Buffalo Wild Wings GO workers made last-minute preparations and watched the doors.

Buffalo Wild Wings Go and Dunkin Donuts both opened on Friday at 1974 Robert C. Byrd Drive in MacArthur.

atai Life Sciences and Beckley Psytech to Combine Creating a Global Leader in Psychedelic Mental Health Therapies
Strategic combination establishes a market-leading mental health company with a pipeline that includes potentially transformative, rapid-acting psychedelic assets differentiated by their convenient route of administration and short time-in-clinic Combined company will operate under the name atai Beckley with a joint leadership team and Board that leverage the deep psychedelic, drug development and CNS expertise within both organizations Topline data from the Phase 2b study of BPL-003 in patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) is expected in mid-2025 - the largest controlled trial of mebufotenin (5-MeO-DMT) and the first and only controlled trial to investigate mebufotenin in the U.S. The all-share transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025 Concurrent $30.0M private placement by Ferring Ventures S.A. and Adage Capital Partners LP Conference call scheduled for 8:00am EDT today NEW YORK and BERLIN and OXFORD, United Kingdom, June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- atai Life Sciences (NASDAQ: ATAI) ('atai' or 'Company'), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company on a mission to develop highly effective mental health treatments to transform patient outcomes, and Beckley Psytech Limited ('Beckley'), a private clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering the next generation of mental health treatments, today announced a definitive agreement under which atai and Beckley plan to combine in an all-share transaction subject to pre-agreed BPL-003 (mebufotenin benzoate) Phase 2b success criteria. 'The strategic combination marks a transformational moment, solidifying us as a leader in rapid-acting and accessible psychedelic treatments for mental health conditions with a pipeline of potential first-in-class and best-in-class assets,' stated Srinivas Rao, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of atai. 'With a unified vision and a synergistic pipeline, we believe we are well-positioned to unlock the strategic value of our clinical development programs for both patients and shareholders. Together, we plan to move confidently towards our goal of bringing innovative interventional psychiatry therapies to patients in need of new treatments.' Cosmo Feilding Mellen, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of Beckley added, 'This combination brings together two highly complementary pipelines to create a market leader at the forefront of psychiatric care. Clinical data has shown the rapid and durable effects of our compounds, as well as their potential to fit within the existing treatment paradigm established by SPRAVATO®. We believe that the unified business will be even better positioned to accelerate development, drive long-term value for shareholders, and - most importantly - deliver meaningful innovation for patients.' 'This transaction marks a pivotal milestone in delivering on the strategic vision we set forth from the start of atai in 2018: to be the leader in the psychedelic space,' added Christian Angermayer, Co-Founder and Chairman of atai. 'I am also very pleased to announce the concurrent financing with existing investors from both companies. The continued support from Ferring Ventures, a valued investor in atai, and Adage Capital, a longstanding investor in Beckley, further validates the strength and potential of this combination.' Transaction Benefits Market-Leading Pipeline: atai Beckley will boast a synergistic fully owned pipeline that includes proprietary, rapid-acting psychedelic compounds differentiated by their convenient route of administration and short time-in-clinic. Near-Term Clinical Milestones: Topline data from the eight-week, randomized core stage of Beckley's BPL-003 Phase 2b trial in treatment-resistant depression (NCT05870540) is expected in mid-2025, representing a potentially significant value inflection point. The study builds on previously reported open-label results which demonstrated that a single dose of BPL-003, when given as a monotherapy or alongside SSRIs, was well-tolerated and could produce a rapid and lasting antidepressant effect for up to three months. Financial Synergies and Strong IP Portfolio: Cash runway through multiple Phase 2 clinical catalysts, near and long-term operational synergies, as well as a strong IP portfolio with granted U.S. patents out to 2043. Unified Vision and Team: The new entity is expected to leverage the expertise, teams, and networks of both organizations to accelerate the development and commercialization of transformative mental health treatments. Transaction Termsatai made a strategic investment in Beckley in January 2024. Under the terms of the deal, Beckley's shareholders (other than atai) will be issued approximately 105 million new shares as consideration for the remaining shares of Beckley not presently held by atai. These newly issued shares equate to approximately 31% of the combined company on a fully diluted basis, based on the treasury stock method, upon closing of the transaction and the concurrent private placement, and value Beckley at approximately $390 million. These newly issued atai shares are subject to a lock-up wherein, following the completion of the lock-up period, 1/12 of the shares are released every month. Additionally, Apeiron Investment Group, the family office of Mr. Angermayer, voluntarily entered into a similar lock-up agreement covering all of its shares in atai. Beckley also intends to distribute Eleusis Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries, which hold assets and funding related to its second clinical-stage asset, ELE-101, out of Beckley prior to closing of the transaction. Timing and Approvalsatai's Supervisory Board and Management Board and Beckley's Board of Directors have approved the transaction. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025, subject to approval of the share issuance by the shareholders of atai and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Concurrent FinancingConcurrent with the transaction, atai also executed a $30.0 million private placement with Ferring Ventures S.A. and Adage Capital Partners LP. This financing is not contingent on closing of the transaction. The private placement is expected to close on June 3, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
