Amarin Corp Plc (AMRN)

[Birdbrain Ideas]

On the European sales, I wonder if the drop in sales in the Fourth Quarter reflects the fact that sometimes the company seems to claim sales when it ships its product, rather than when the product reaches its endpoint. Am I right about that? So perhaps the drop reflects that they've begun to stick with actual sales to the consumer. Meanwhile, I'm curious why RoW sales ballooned from $6.9 million in the Third Quarter to $11.9 million in the Fourth. A doubling in sales in a single quarter? What does that reflect? Did it come up at the earnings call? Wouldn't they be trumpeting that? Or was it another blip. And the licensing revenues quadrupled? But then I saw this in the earnings transcript: It is important to note that in the current year, product revenue with our partners includes supply shipments in preparation for market launches. Our partnership revenue can be variable quarter to quarter and year to year based on restocking timing relative to end-market demand.
