Just got off the phone with ASND IR:

1. 1Q still right on plan, though it may be a little bit more back-end loaded than anticipated. (This is a concern...first I'd heard it) Any extra revenue over the consensus of .25/share will be moved to 2Q.

2. ATM showing strength (as we know). I was surprised to hear that RAS is actually showing strength.

3. There will be a raft of new product announcements in 2Q.

After hearing this, I'm moving my 1Q estimate down from .28/share to .26 1/2 share (the consensus estimate is .25/share). The only reason for the decrease is the slight concern I have about the back-end loading of the quarter.
