<< Bob are you sober? What earnings did Lgnd receive from these deals? >>

Interesting....... Ligand received $12 million from the exercise of the warrants, in the 4th quarter. They also received $20 million from Elan and another $30 million "issue price" funding from Elan at the end of September.

Neither of the $20 million or the $30 million "issue price" funding were included in the 3rd quarter earnings report.

In the 3rd quarter, Ligand had $4 million in revenues and spent $20 million, leaving a loss of $16 million (not including special items).

If Ligand spent $20 million in the 4th quarter and received $32 - $62 million, that will result in a very positive earnings report this quarter.

Anyone have any comments? Am I missing something?
