Well there are plenty of catalysts for stock appreciation. Lets hope they solidify shortly. I for one think we are headed in the right direction but still not sure that a buyout is going to happen. I think it is in our best interest to happen but just wonder what is taking so long. The risk for Brig is very low (in the context of a pIII compound) as approval is all but assured. I would have to think the next compounds are too far off to make waiting longer a lucrative option. The time to be acquired is now, because absent a buyout we will likely have to partner Brig outside of the US and that would make a sale more complicated. I hope we have some buyers lined up and we are just working out the details.
