Wouldn’t we all!

It also could come early. I do not mean for my words to discount that possibility as well.

But I suspect, for instance, why Les said fall rather than June, or summer is that we all know things can go slower than you’d like with regulators. We have seen MHRA sometimes take longer than promised, but them, and so setting timing out further is ensuring that shorts do not start beating the drum that there is trouble on June 30th when no news is generally good news in my book.

The reality is, and I have said this before and I would not be surprised if after multiple times, they took my advice, you estimate the time, and then you double it. If you massively beat expectations, that comes back in spades in terms of credibility. The problem is when you underestimate the likely and reasonable time and overstate the speed, and then, if it takes longer, despite immense success, the shorts paint it as “failure”. This has been a repeated challenge for them. Success after success, painted as “failure”. And we know who the culprits are.

I would say, based on what we know so far from the 10-Q, and Les’ statement, and past history, approval could come at any time. Any time. And shorts should beware overplaying their hands because, given the results of the phase 3, the Nature article and other data, their goose is already cooked, IMHO. Their bluster at this point is simply whistling in the dark.
