Hi Zazarre -
Sorry I did not get back to you sooner .....
(a) I own around 35,000 shares.
(b) Everyone is free to speculate about NTI's need to do another placement.
my speculation is that they are $15 million short and therefore will have to do one.
I don't want to spend energy defending this *feeling* but I threw these numbers out on Yahoo some weeks ago .... they are a road map and probably better estimates could be made ....
NOTE: I would NOT recommend NTII to anyone ... too many loose ends ...

One of the weird things on the horizon maybe as follows:
(1) Xerecept works - but
(a) No way to finance a sales team to sell it, and, (b) sales effort reduced by limited product need
i.e. used only in chronic because of the (anticipated huge) cost difference between Xerecept vs Dex_I_cant spell_the_rest current steriod in use.
Finally, it goes without saying that I hope I am dead wrong about all the stuff above, and time will tell.
Whether I stay here or not largely depends on the upcoming results of the DN P2 trial.
