Nobody in their right mind will buy this company... It's already 10x over valued... It's possible that some of the patents will be bought for pennies on the dollar in a bankruptcy situation...
DD I don't totally disagree with you but I think there's a more important part of this statement that should be highlighted and that's, 'we could seek assistance from a corporate partner or a third-party services firm with a large distribution system and a large direct sales force'. LP is too smart to have waited this long to just start thinking about distribution. They've been working on it for a long time but just can't say it out loud yet. Either way I know we're all in good shape.
We may be unable to recruit and train effective sales and marketing forces or our own, or of a partner or a services firm, and/or doing so may be more costly and difficult than anticipated. Such factors may result in significant difficulties in commercializing our product candidates, and we may be unable to generate significant revenues.
Sounds like she is softening the blow for those who believed they could/would hang on to their shares and ride them to the moon.
