Happy New Year to everyone!

It'll be a good one for Quidel and Quidel's investors.

Here's something to keep the interest alive:

The 13 January 1997 Business Week cover story features the top 25 managers of the year. One is Sir Richard Sykes, Glaxo's CEO. A short article mentions that even as Zantac sales slid, Glaxo's 1997 could be rough, but upcoming AIDS and flu treatments should be big hits down the road.

Sounds like the author thinks Glaxo's flu treatment will be successful. Let's hope so. If it is, and Quidel successfully develops a companion flu test, BOTH the treatment and test will be big hits down the road.

Just remember, Principal's 7 October 1996 investment research report didn't even consider Quidel's pipeline products. It said, "At its current price, we believe Quidel's stock does not fully reflect the value of the company's existing business and includes little, if any, value for the potential from new products under development." Basically, were getting the speculation for free.

I hope we hear an announcement soon that Glaxo is proceeding with Phase III for GG167. It could be enough to give Quidel a bump on the developing speculation.
