Pozen says it will return cash to shareholders with special dividend of $1.75 in December.

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) -- Drugmaker Pozen said Thursday it will pay a special cash dividend of $1.75 as it has a "surplus of corporate cash."

Shares jumped 82 cents, or 12 percent, to $7.62 in after-hours trading.

Pozen Inc. said it will pay the dividend on Dec. 30 to shareholders of record as of Dec. 11.

How come the IHub board does not show any dividends. It says "N/A".

[IPO$]

that is a 20% dividend....is it cash or stock dividend?

[$$$eeker]

$POZN some people are buying for the $1.75 per share dividend at end of month.

[IPO$]

POZN has already made a 50% run this month, has doubled in price over 52 weeks, and has $.75 loss per share with a 1.94MM short interest or 7% of the float. Why would one buy this stock?

[jooo2222]

This wil become a 10 bagegr or even a 100 bagger over time.

Do the math yourself
30 million shares (one of the lowest in this sector)
$80m cash and no debts what so ever!!!
only 30 people get a salary
CEO owns a lot of shares and he is the founder!!!
Already 2 drugs approved by the FDA who were based on the same technics = approval very likely !!!
The FDA date is Januari the 24th.....(2014)
POZN has a 22% deal with Sanofi for all sales in the USA. This new drug, PA, is a better Aspirin. And Pozn asked Sanofi to sell it at the same price then the generic version, at $1/day
PA is 100% same as Aspirin, but, dalily taken Aspirin causes bleeding ulcers by 24% of the patients. Daily takers of PA will not have that problem anymore!!!
The insurance will pay back everything, so the patients are paying $360/year, but in fact will get the drug for free and by taking the drug, the chences to get heart troubles or cancers are reduced by about 25%.
ALl people older then 50 should be on daily Aspirin. There are 80 million people in the USA and 900 million people world wide older then 50.
In the USA, around 50 million are already on daily aspirin. If POZN/SANOFI can get 10% of this population we are talking about a pPS for POZN at around $330/share
Why? Because 5 million patients pays $1.8billion to Sanofi and POZN gets 22.5% = $400M/year = $13.5/share
Because the generic version costs as much as the approved version, all patients will stay on PA. Which means this income is steady year over year and POZN will start paying dividends. A P/E of 25 give a PPS of $330.
In case 20% of the patients take PA, this will more then double... and today POZN is at $6.
JAZZ also was at $6, Acor as well and amny others who became successful in launching a good drug.

7:30AM POZEN announces FDA acceptance of filing of New Drug Application for PA32540/PA8140 tablets (POZN) 5.22 : Co announced that the FDA has accepted for review, the New Drug Application (NDA) for PA32540/PA8140. Both products are a coordinated-delivery tablet combining immediate-release omeprazole (40 mg), a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), layered around a pH-sensitive coating of an aspirin core. The FDA also indicated the review classification is Standard; therefore, the user fee goal date is January 24, 2014. Pending FDA review and approval, an indication is sought for PA tablets for the secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease in patients at risk for aspirin-induced gastric ulcers.

[mlkrborn]

POZEN: Presence of gastric erosions in patients taking low-dose aspirin for secondary cardiovascular prevention may result in a 2-fold increase in future gastric ulcers (POZN) 4.96 : Co presents data from a post-hoc analysis of Phase 3 data from the investigational compound PA32540. The analysis of patients screened for the Phase 3 studies demonstrated that at any time point, over 4% of subjects on low dose aspirin for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease have endoscopic gastric ulcers that go undetected. In addition, the analysis demonstrated that even the presence of small lesions known as endoscopic gastric erosions in aspirin-users was associated with a 2-fold increased risk of future development of endoscopic gastric ulcers.

Key Findings of Post-Hoc Analysis

The baseline rate of gastric ulcers in the screening of the general population of adults using ASA (325 mg) for =3 months for secondary cardiovascular prevention was 4.4%, and was 5.7% for both gastric or duodenal ulcers.
In the post-hoc analysis of subjects with and without gastric erosion at baseline endoscopy, the presence of gastric erosion at baseline was:
Predictive of a higher rate of subsequent gastric erosions for both EC-ASA (325 mg) and PA32540.
Associated with a significant propensity toward future gastric ulcer development in subjects treated with EC-ASA (325 mg), but not in those treated with PA32540.
In patients with baseline gastric erosions, a significantly higher percentage of patients taking EC-ASA (325 mg) developed a gastric ulcer over the six month study period than patients taking PA32540 (13% vs. 4.2%).

Co states these data highlight the need for physicians to identify aspirin patients at risk, and, where appropriate, prescribe gastroprotective agents. Based on American Heart Association and American College of Gastroenterology recommendations, the preferred gastroprotective agents are proton pump inhibitors.

7:33AM POZEN reports results from a Burden of Cardiovascular Disease Study: presentation demonstrates cost reduction when PPI used in combination with aspirin for both commercial and medicare populations (POZN) 4.69 : Co announces it presented the abstract, The Burden of Secondary Cardiovascular Disease in Commercial and Medicare Patients: A Managed Care Perspective. The secondary prevention of cardiovascular events includes the daily use of aspirin.

Co highlights chronic aspirin therapy is associated with significant gastrointestinal toxicity including dyspepsia, gastric ulcers and GI bleeding, all of which contribute to the disease and cost burden of secondary prevention. The GI toxicity of aspirin can be mitigated by the use of proton pump inhibitors. The Xcenda analysis demonstrated that the prevention of cardiovascular events with aspirin, plus a PPI, compared to aspirin alone is associated with a net per-patient per-year cost decrease of $103 and $145 and a potential overall cost decrease of $1.8 mln and $11.0 mln for a typical one million-member Commercial and Medicare Plan, respectively.

7:30AM POZEN presents positive PA32540 Phase 3 data at the 2013 International Stroke Conference (POZN) 5.46 : Co presented data from the combined results of two Phase 3 studies of PA32540, an antiplatelet therapy of enteric-coated and immediate-release omeprazole, in patients with previous cerebrovascular disease. These data were presented at the American Heart Association 2013 International Stroke Conference on Thursday, February 7. According to the studies, in the post-hoc analysis of subjects with a history of transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke, long-term (6 months) treatment with PA32540, compared to EC-ASA (325 mg), was associated with a significantly reduced rate of endoscopic gastroduodenal ulcers (2.0% vs. 12.4% respectively; p=0.005), and study discontinuation due to adverse pre-specified upper GI events (0% vs. 8.0% respectively; p=0.006). The incidence of adjudicated major adverse cardiac events was similar for PA32540 (2.9%) and EC-ASA (325 mg) (4.4%). PA32540 is associated with a lower rate of endoscopic gastroduodenal mucosal injury with a similar cerebrovascular event profile as EC-ASA therapy. PA32540, a single tablet containing EC aspirin and IR omeprazole, has a lower rate of discontinuation and, hence, may improve long-term adherence to ASA therapy.

Key Points:

POZEN is currently preparing the NDA for PA and is planning to seek approval for two dosage forms, PA32540 and PA8140.
Q3 2012 global net sales of VIMOVO delayed-release tablets, as defined under the agreement, were $13.4 million, up 38% from Q3 2011 but down 19% vs. Q2 2012.

Data for Phase III trial for PA32540

As previously disclosed, during a pre-submission meeting for the Company's NDA for PA32540, the FDA suggested that the Company also seek approval for a lower dose formulation of the product containing 81 mg of aspirin. POZEN continues to anticipate filing the NDA for both products in the first half of 2013.
POZEN announced positive results from two pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials of the investigational product, PA32540. Each study achieved its individual primary endpoint, as patients on PA32540 experienced fewer gastric ulcers compared to those taking enteric-coated aspirin (325 mg) alone.
In addition, the results from the combined data from the two studies demonstrated that patients on PA32540, compared to those on enteric-coated aspirin (325 mg), were able to stay on therapy longer due to fewer discontinuations due to any adverse events (6.7% vs. 11.2%).
In the combined data from the two trials, 85.1% of subjects on enteric-coated aspirin (325 mg) reported adverse events compared to 71.8% of subjects on PA32540.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Shares of Pozen Inc. dropped Friday after the company said approval for an experimental cardiovascular drug may be delayed, and it is possible the product's marketing approval will be limited.

THE SPARK: The drug, code-named PA32540, is intended as an alternative to aspirin as a secondary treatment for the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Many people take aspirin to prevent heart problems, but long-term use of aspirin can cause ulcers. PA32540 contains aspirin and omeprazole, the active ingredient in heartburn drugs like Prilosec. The omeprazole is released as soon as the drug is taken and the aspirin is released over time.

Pozen said Friday that the Food and Drug Administration has suggested it seek approval of a lower-dose version of PA32540 — one that contains 81 milligrams of aspirin instead of 325 milligrams. Pozen said the FDA might only be willing to approve the 325-milligram version for use in patients who have just had heart bypass surgery, and it may recommend that patients take the drug for only one year.

The Chapel Hill, N.C., company said it is gathering on the FDA's proposed version of the drug. It does not plan to conduct a late-stage clinical trial. Pozen had planned to seek marketing approval of PA32540 in the third quarter of 2012, but it said the process of collecting data might delay that filing for up to six months.

THE BIG PICTURE: Pozen gets most of its revenue from sales of the arthritis treatment Vimovo, which contains a combination of naproxen, a common painkiller, and esomeprazole magnesium, the active ingredient in the heartburn drug Nexium. That reduces patients' risk of developing ulcers, a common side effect of treatment with some arthritis drugs.

Pozen developed Vimovo through a partnership with British drugmaker AstraZeneca PLC. It reported about $34 million in Vimovo sales in 2011, with $21 million in the U.S. and $13 million from the 27 other markets where the drug is approved. Early this year Pozen said prescriptions in the U.S. have been flat "for a number of months."

AstraZeneca is continuing to pursue approvals in other countries, and Pozen said growth in other markets is solid.

SHARE ACTION: Shares of Pozen sank $1.44, or 18.6 percent, to $6.29 in afternoon trading. The shares have more than tripled in value since Nov. 23, and closed at $7.73 Thursday.

7:30AM POZEN announces preliminary top-line results from two pivotal Phase 3 studies of PA32540: primary and secondary endpoints met (POZN) 4.80 : PA32540 is a novel, coordinated-delivery tablet of immediate-release omeprazole (40 mg) and delayed release aspirin (325 mg). The two Phase 3 pivotal trials were randomized, double-blind, multi-center studies in which a total of 1,049 subjects at risk for developing aspirin-associated ulcers and already taking aspirin at a dose of 325 mg once daily for at least three months for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events were randomly assigned to treatment with either PA32540 or 325 mg enteric-coated aspirin once daily. The primary endpoint, a significant reduction in the cumulative incidence of gastric ulcers following administration of PA32540 vs. 325 mg enteric-coated aspirin over six months, was met in both studies. Additionally, the studies met their key secondary endpoints, including a reduction in gastroduodenal ulceration as well as a reduction in discontinuation due to upper gastrointestinal adverse events in subjects taking PA32540 compared to 325 mg enteric-coated aspirin. Reported adverse events were consistent with the trial population and the known adverse event profile of aspirin and omeprazole. Further analyses of the data will be conducted, and presentation of the data at an appropriate upcoming scientific meeting, as well as publication of the full results, is planned.

Co says :2012 is an important year for POZEN. We are completing the pivotal Phase 3 studies for our leading product candidate PA32540. We expect to have the results of the studies in the second quarter and plan to file the NDA in the third quarter. We have made the decision to find a partner or partners for this and the other PA assets and, with the assistance of Keelin Reeds Partners LLC, are in discussions with potential partners. We are continuing to perform critical pre-commercialization activities required to ensure a timely launch by an eventual partner. From a financial standpoint, in 2012 we expect our R&D costs will be substantially lower due to the completion of our PA32540 Phase 3 studies and we expect our SG&A to be slightly lower year on year. Our current plan targets a year-end cash and short-term investment balance of greater than $85.0 million..

Pozen Inc

For many investors, the pharmaceutical sector has been a portfolio staple for a long time. Companies like Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) or Pfizer Inc (PFE) have been great holdings with steady increases in both dividends and stock price. Pozen Inc is one such company; located in the Research Triangle Park area of North Carolina, Pozen received FDA approval on two medicines it has developed. One of these formulas has the company poised to surge in 2012.

Anti-migraine medicine Treximet has been a strong source of income for Pozen. The income will continue as the company sold the royalty rights of Treximet to Pantheon Pharmaceuticals (PTI) for $75 million. Sold in November of 2011, this deal will create a strong revenue stream and boost the company in the coming year. Currently selling around $3.90, (about half of its 52-week high) the 1-year target is $5.50, representing an expected increase of nearly 30%. Although it is a relative newcomer in pharma, look for Pozen to be a strong mover in 2012, with many analysts considering it either a hold or a buy.
