quotes, and what the analysts really (IMO) meant to say.....

>> Jim Reddoch, an analyst at Friedman, Billings, Ramsey & Co. said, "Peak sales of the drug for lung cancer are probably going to be in the $400 million to $500 million range instead of the $1 billion range investors expected." <<

What he really meant to say.....

"instead of the $1 billion range some investors were guided to by some analysts."

>> Piper Jaffray analyst Thomas Wei said the inclusion of the EGFR data in the package insert "suggests that the FDA found the analysis important for physicians to consider."

"If physicians choose to limit their usage to EGFR-positive patients, our estimates for sales for lung cancer ... may prove (too) aggressive." <<

What he really meant to say.....

"While I've given my opinion, it's obvious that I'm not up to speed on the issue. I'll get back to you."
