Since my broker had NO idea - I did some research to prevent my brokerage firm from "borrowing" my ENTA shares for any short sales.
How do I stop short sellers from borrowing my shares?
All you do is to phone your broker and put an order in saying that you wish to place your shares for sale at, for arguments sake, double today's price. As they are 'on order' they cannot be lent out by your broker and in turn you are reducing the amount of 'free shares' out there that can be used for shorting purposes.
As a new, approximately 6 month investor in ENTA, I appreciate the correction. Live & learn - thanks Dew

COMBINATIONS OF PHARMACEUTICAL AGENTS AS RSV INHIBITORS
File Date: .................... 2018-09-28.
Pub Date: .....................2024-03-20
Excerpts:
Background of the Invention:
RSV is the leading cause of acute lower respiratory tract infections (ALRI) and affects patients of all ages. The symptoms in adults are usually not severe and are typically analogous to a mild cold. However, in infants and toddlers the virus can cause lower respiratory tract infections including bronchiolitis or pneumonia with many of them requiring hospitalization. Nearly all children have been infected by age 3. There are known high-risk groups that infection with RSV is more likely to progress into the ALRI. Premature infants and/or infants suffering from lung or cardiac disease are at the highest risk to develop ALRI. Additional high-risk groups include the elderly, adults with chronic heart and/or lung disease, stem cell transplant patients and the immunosuppressed.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION:
The compounds of the invention may be administered in a variety of dosage forms. Thus, they can be administered orally, for example as tablets, troches, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, dispersible powders or granules. The compounds of the invention may also be administered parenterally, whether subcutaneously, intravenously, intramuscularly, intrasternally, transdermally or by infusion techniques. The compounds may also be administered as suppositories.

Are You Looking for a Top Momentum Pick? Why Collegium Pharmaceutical (COLL) is a Great Choice
March 01, 2024 — 12:00 pm EST
For COLL, shares are up 11.57% over the past week while the Zacks Medical - Drugs industry is down 0.48% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 9.68% compares favorably with the industry's 1.54% performance as well.
While any stock can see a spike in price, it takes a real winner to consistently outperform the market. Over the past quarter, shares of Collegium Pharmaceutical have risen 35.06%, and are up 34.86% in the last year. In comparison, the S&P 500 has only moved 11.77% and 30%, respectively.
Investors should also pay attention to COLL's average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. COLL is currently averaging 407,425 shares for the last 20 days.
Earnings Outlook
The Zacks Momentum Style Score encompasses many things, including estimate revisions and a stock's price movement. Investors should note that earnings estimates are also significant to the Zacks Rank, and a nice path here can be promising. We have recently been noticing this with COLL.
Over the past two months, 4 earnings estimates moved higher compared to 1 lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost COLL's consensus estimate, increasing from $6.02 to $6.29 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 3 estimates have moved upwards while there have been no downward revisions in the same time period.

Collegium Pharmaceutical Q4: The Beat Goes On
Excerpts:
The company has been paying down debt and repurchasing stock with its impressive operational cash flow.
The shares have gathered momentum since we last gave a "thumbs up" to this name in late October. We take a look at earnings results and update our analysis around this solid small cap
Collegium posted its fourth quarter numbers on February 22nd. The company delivered non-GAAP earnings of $1.58 a share, more than 30 cents a share above estimates. Revenues rose 15.5% on a year-over-year to $149.7 million, slightly above the consensus. For the year, net product revenues came in at $566.8 million, up 22% over FY2022. Belbuca revenue was a core contributor to growth as net product revenues rose 17% to $49.3 million in the quarter. Xtampza ER did even better with a 38% rise from 4Q2022 to $48.5 million.
Since fourth quarter results hit the wires, both Needham ($40 price target) and Piper Sandler ($39 price target) have reiterated Buy ratings on the stock. H.C. Wainwright maintained its Hold rating on the shares.
Verdict:
Collegium Pharmaceutical made $1.29 a share in FY2023 on just under $567 million in sales. The current analyst firm consensus has profits jumping to $3.97 a share in FY2024 and $6.15 a share in FY 2025 on slight increases in revenues. It should be noted these estimates are from just three analyst firms and vary widely for both FY2024 ($2.76 to $6.18 a share) and FY2025 ($3.60 to $8.11 a share).
Even at the low end of estimates, earnings look set to increase at a rapid rate over the next two years. The stock sells at just over 9 times the consensus EPS estimate for this fiscal year. The shares trading near the conversion price of Collegium's convertible debt could be a bit of an overhang.

Collegium posted its fourth quarter numbers on February 22nd. The company delivered non-GAAP earnings of $1.58 a share, more than 30 cents a share above estimates. Revenues rose 15.5% on a year-over-year to $149.7 million, slightly above the consensus. For the year, net product revenues came in at $566.8 million, up 22% over FY2022. Belbuca revenue was a core contributor to growth as net product revenues rose 17% to $49.3 million in the quarter. Xtampza ER did even better with a 38% rise from 4Q2022 to $48.5 million.
Since fourth quarter results hit the wires, both Needham ($40 price target) and Piper Sandler ($39 price target) have reiterated Buy ratings on the stock. H.C. Wainwright maintained its Hold rating on the shares.
Verdict:
Collegium Pharmaceutical made $1.29 a share in FY2023 on just under $567 million in sales. The current analyst firm consensus has profits jumping to $3.97 a share in FY2024 and $6.15 a share in FY2025 on slight increases in revenues. It should be noted these estimates are from just three analyst firms and vary widely for both FY2024 ($2.76 to $6.18 a share) and FY2025 ($3.60 to $8.11 a share).
Even at the low end of estimates, earnings look set to increase at a rapid rate over the next two years. The stock sells at just over 9 times the consensus EPS estimate for this fiscal year. The shares trading near the conversion price of Collegium's convertible debt could be a bit of an overhang.

On February 22, 2024, Collegium Pharmaceutical Inc (NASDAQ:COLL) released its 8-K filing, announcing record financial results for the fourth quarter and the full year ended December 31, 2023. The specialty pharmaceutical company, known for its abuse-deterrent products and patented DETERx platform technology, reported significant growth in revenue and earnings, surpassing its operational objectives and enhancing shareholder value.
Collegium Pharmaceutical Inc's President and CEO, Joe Ciaffoni, expressed satisfaction with the company's performance, stating,
2023 was a banner year for Collegium Pharmaceutical. We delivered record financial results, achieved our operational objectives and delivered value to shareholders through our share repurchase program."
The company's focus for 2024 is on operational execution, aiming to meet financial guidance and create shareholder value.
Colleen Tupper, Chief Financial Officer, highlighted the company's financial achievements, including record revenue, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow. She emphasized the strategic financial management that led to a stronger balance sheet and capital return to shareholders. Tupper anticipates continued growth in 2024, driven by product sales and cost structure leverage.
Financial Performance Analysis
Collegium Pharmaceutical Inc's financial results reflect a robust performance in a competitive industry. The company's record net revenue of $149.7 million for the fourth quarter and $566.8 million for the full year signifies a strong market demand for its products, particularly Belbuca and Xtampza ER. The GAAP net income figures of $31.9 million for the quarter and $48.2 million for the year demonstrate effective cost management and operational efficiency.
The adjusted EBITDA of $104.2 million for the quarter and $367.0 million for the year is a critical metric for investors, as it illustrates the company's profitability and ability to generate cash from operations. The substantial reduction in debt and the successful refinancing of convertible debt are indicative of prudent financial stewardship, which is essential for sustaining growth and weathering market volatility.
Collegium Pharmaceutical Inc's commitment to shareholder returns, as evidenced by the $75.0 million share repurchase, is a testament to the company's confidence in its financial health and long-term prospects. The projected financial guidance for 2024, with net revenue expected to be between $580.0 to $595.0 million and adjusted EBITDA between $380.0 to $395.0 million, sets an optimistic tone for the company's future performance.
In conclusion, Collegium Pharmaceutical Inc's record earnings for the fourth quarter and full year of 2023 reflect a company that is not only thriving in its market niche but is also strategically positioned for continued growth. The company's financial discipline and commitment to shareholder value are likely to appeal to value investors....

Baird lowered the firm’s price target on Enanta to $26 from $40 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm said results largely met expectations, and we are encouraged that management continues to expect to readout data from the RSVPEDs study of zelicapavir in 3Q24, which Baird continues to view as a key catalyst with potential to drive upside potential on the stock.

Foley's words. " I gave too much control to XXXX and did not know what they were doing" (Quote from Emannow)
Welcome to RIPLEY's BELIEVE IT OR NOT - POSSIBLE or IMPOSSIBLE? - BIG BONUSES might be coming for FOLEY et al -this year-- (reported)Feb. 7, 2024
The RVNC Peter's Principle rule:
Revance Therapeutics (RVNC) has released an update to notify the public and investors about its officers.
Revance Therapeutics, Inc.’s Compensation Committee has set the 2024 Bonus Program and equity award mix for its executive officers. CEO Mark Foley’s bonus will solely depend on company-wide goals, while other executives will have individual performance modifiers. Bonuses can exceed targets if performance surpasses goals. Foley’s target bonus is 75% of his base investment salary, with his equity entirely in performance stock units, while other executives have a mix of performance stock units and restricted stock units, with bonuses ranging from 50% to 55% of their base salaries.
IF this ever occurs in 2024 - time to say BYE-BYE to your hard earned RVNC investment. Remember, YOU are indirectly paying for these possible BONUSES!! Let's hope this does NOT happen.
