OC, you asked on ihub why would anybody be buying this morning. Here is my cup is half full view.

If I did not have so many shares, I would be buying a few. Remember that the ED market is truly a multibillion dollar market and Vitaros treats that portion of the market that is not effectively treated by Viagra, Cialis, etc., regardless of how cheap these PED5 pills are. Further, the company now has US rights back, a market (unlike any place else in the world except New Zealand) where advertising is allowed.

Finally, the company is committed to cutting costs immediately and does not face the uncertainty of how to raise perhaps $30 million or more for clinical trials for a drug (Fis) that may not succeed...and now we know it would not have succeeded. Vitaros approval in the US is a much better bet with thousands of users in Europe and without reported adverse effects. European use of Vitaros is increasing quarter over quarter. The unknown is what Pfizer/Allergan will do if/when Vitaros receives US approval. If Pfizer decides to aggressively market Vitaros, Apricus should do quite well. If not, Apricus will have to enter into another alliance in order to market Vitaros.
