LGND has presented at H&Q every year ever since they went public at the end of 1992. In those seven years, I don't think that more than 4 press releases have been issued by LGND in association with H&Q.

However, LGND has put out 4 press release in the first 5 business days of this year, and I expect the news barrage to continue. Therefore I expect at least one more press release prior to their 11:00 AM presentation on Tuesday (if they say something material at their H&Q presentation, the press release will come out BEFORE the presentation).

I would say that the following news items are possible, listed in order of likelihood:

Selection of second generation rexinoids by LLY (and associated milestone payment)

Presentation of interim psoriasis data for Targretin

Another major pharmaceutical alliance

Presentation of interim breast cancer data for Targretin

Another marketing alliance
