<<The increases in inventories was discussed in the last conference call>>

in the conference call, they said they produced MORE than the normal volume of 800,000 units per month between Aug and Oct, hence the increase of inventory in the channel from 30 to 45 days; they have also produced and shipped 150,000 uinits to Astra for their jan 98 roll-out of the drug; they plan on producing and shipping an additional 200,000 units to them in jan 98

I'd also like to add that the plant runs 3 shifts, round the clock 6 days a week. And i've heard occasionally 7 days. Seems they are not shy about working the plant to get the most out of it.
