From the latest quarterly report:

$45M cash/securities
MLNM horizon program is now paid off
let go of 80 positions as of 10/5--presumably
this next quarter will be the first one without
the hellacious burn rate now that the last payment
is made to mlnm and genomics is pared way back.

Gene Logic has been a huge disappointment over the
past ten years. They've burned through an astonishing
$310.7M. However, I think finally they may be worth a
serious look. I have snipped two paragraphs that I
think are worth a read:

"Management concluded that the assets and technologies
of its Genomics Division contribute significantly to the
services provided by its Drug Repositioning Division and
may also have additional value in areas such as clinical
biomarker development and molecular diagnostics and is
actively exploring these and other options to realize
greater value from these assets and technologies."

(snip)

"We believe that existing cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities available-for-sale and anticipated
payments from customers will be sufficient to support our
operations for the foreseeable future. Additionally, while
there can be no assurances that the sale of the Preclinical
Division will occur, we anticipate the receipt of cash from
the buyer as the result of the sale of our Preclinical
Division."

After watching this on and off for the past seven years,
I once again have a position. These shares may be trending
down here in tax-loss selling season and all that--do your
own DD etc etc. I bought my shares last week when I sold
some of my $3 Anadys. Naturally, I am right away 5% in
the hole, ha! Also, I'd like to point out to any biotech
newbies, that apparently, I cannot beat even dartboard
portfolios:

GLGC is the cheapest biotech stock that I know of--but
what do I know?
