The following is an excerpt from the above. Jay I have posed a question at the bottom.

VALUATION (only for the human vaccines)

1.Campylobacter vaccine for diarrhea and gastroenteritis - Phase II
2.H Influenzae vaccine for otitis media, pneumonia, meningitis -
Phase I
3.H pylori vaccine for gastritis, peptic ulcers, gastric carcinoma -
Phase I
4.Shigella, Moraxella, Chlamydia, Pneumococcus and Neisseria
vaccines are in nonclinical trials.

Campylobacter - 2mm cases per year at a cost of $20 (assumed) =
$40mm total US market. Penetration of 10% first year times 0.4 for
Phase II trial = $1.6mm contribution to market capitalization.

H. influenzae vaccine for otitis media. Assume $20 treatment for 5mm
cases per year = $100mm total market. Multiply $100mm times 10%
penetration times 0.3 for phase I trial = $3.0mm contribution to
market cap.

H. Pylori vaccine - assume 5mm new cases at $75 per treatment -
market potential is $375mm per year (very conservative). Multiply by
0.3 for Phase I trial and 10% market penetration = $22.5mm
contribution to market cap.

Five nonclinical programs contributing $5mm toward market cap each =
$25mm.

Technology value = $52.1mm
Patents on compounds in clinical trials = $1.5mm
Plus current assets minus long term debt = $6.3mm

TOTAL = $59.9mm

Management Factor

Accumulated Deficit = $12.06mm
Revenues since inception = $7.86mm
Factor = 7.86/12.06 = 0.65 (excellent by industry standards!!!)

ADJUSTED MARKET CAPITALIZATION = [59.9*0.65] + 59.9 =
$98.8mm

Fully diluted shares outstanding = 29.188mm

Share price = $3.38

Jay, I find it curious that the vaccines in preclinical testing get a $5M valuation each yet Campylobactor which is near the end of Phase 2 Human trials is valued at $3M
