"With Viagra to be sold about $7 a pill, gives treatment costs per person at about ( 7 X 52 ) $364. I'll use a profit margin of 17% (Pfizer's 1997 margins from SEC reports ranges from 17 to 19% ) which gives me roughly $4.2 billion in net profits for one year." Baron, you have some seriously flawed #s... let's assume as you did that 10% of potential viagra customers use the drug at your rate of 1x/week... that's 3million people * $364 = $1.092 Billion in SALES !!! at 20% profit margin, that's 220 Million in earnings... or about 20c per share! As it is, PFE has a PE of about 50, yet growth is nowhere near that, and I might add that PFE has a price/sales of 10 or so, making it quite pricey. Jp
