Dr. P.,

Congrats on your realized profit.

With just under 30M shares outstanding (float about 25M), today's Mkt Cap at the moment is about $400M up from $210M on Friday.

If I can look at Zyprexa sales as a benchmark, ACP103 could well have peak sales of somewhere near $2B-$4B implying a mkt cap of up to $12B - a 30 bagger from here.

Even if we look at peak sales of $1.5B, that implies a 10-bagger for ACAD from today's price.

Do you not have confidence in a successful PhIII any time soon? or is there some other reason for the sale?

I too have a very small position which got established when the 10 contracts I didn't buy back got assigned to me on Saturday. I'm leaning toward holding the shares, so I'm quite interested in your views.

Thanks,
Ian
