And with its debt due in '06, it will not be able to put much of the proceeds to work. Nevertheless, the interest income does hide a considerable portion of the burn. And, I would point out the balance sheet values at which it carries its investments ($77m genmab and $48m IDM) are vulnerable. Greatest clinical hopes are for the Aventis ITP Mab and CD4 RA/psoriasis (no raves here, but a contender) which might lead to raising money via genmab liquidation.

No longer screamingly overvalued, but with a $447m tech value back loaded with license fees it is not a hand-over-fist buy IMO. Most of the big pharma collaborations were 2001/2000 deals, so those royalties are a long way away. I am holding mine (low basis), but decided not to add at these levels.

I want DRUGS!
