Until management comes clean about why inventory is at an absolutely absurd level, then I am avoiding this one. I've heard the stories about how LCBM is building inventory for expected future increases in demand from the BL deal (when approved) and for when they receive FDA approval of their PMA on Intergel. However, I've been hearing these lines now for well over a year and I find it hard to believe them at this point. LCBM management is wasting precious working capital by maintaining such a high inventory level all the while HA sales are flat or decreasing.

Also, the street.com did a write-up on this stock on May 6th. Can anybody give us the skinny about what the article said?

BTW, the share price of Closure (CLSR) is falling and a lot of investors are blaming Ethicon for CLSR's slow ramp-up in sales. I don't know what to think about this. I know that Focal (FOCL) hasn't had much success with Ethicon as their exclusive distributor in Europe. And I believe Ethicon is distributing Intergel in Europe for LCBM and these sales have gone nowhere. Just some food for thought.
