Amarin was going to have to defend it's patents at some point, the silver lining in this whole debacle is that if Amarin wins the appeal, it's IP is a non-issue for any future buyer.

The lack of Amarin taking market share from the generics is quite disappointing to say the least, so even if we win the appeal but the sales are still lack luster given the macro environment, I would not be surprised to see mid to low teens on a positive outcome. Hopefully EU approval would push it to high teens to low twenties, just need another six months give or take of patience.

An old friend of mine one of my golf buddies was a patent lawyer..and he said no patent is truly valid unless it has been challenged in court and won..

We might actually be lucky..Reminds me of a story of an infantry fire base in the central highlands in Vietnam..They had a single runway..Every morning an NVA sniper took a shot at the helicopter delivering the mail and had for the past six months..At that point the commanding officer of the fire base was relieved because his tour was up..His replacement was a young
Capt...a gungho West Pointer..

The new commander heard about the sniper and sent a recon squad out and they found and shot the sniper..A week went by and the next morning the sniper's replacement arrived. He turned out to be a better shot and on his third day he shot downs a Shinook with twenty six infantry and the crew all perished..in the flames..

Sometimes a sniper (Du) that can't shoot straight is a blessing in disguise.
