Financial statements from Q397 10Q:
Fairly clean balance sheet with about 18 million in cash and not much in the way of other assets. No substantial debt. Losses are starting to increase in the expected exponential way with a net loss for first 3Q's of 97 of around 7 million vs. 2 million the previous year, and they have barely started a test market! The real expenses have not started, much more capital will be needed. Serious investors will require a better support for their claims to jump in.

Again, not a chance of fighting Colgate and PG. Can they be a Tom's of Maine nitch brand?
The numbers from their press release for Q4 are in line with my analysis above. They did issue equity during the quarter.
97 losses 10 million vs 3 million in 96. Increasing as a power of 2 exponential and the party has not even started!
From the press release, I told you, they have not even started burning cash:
"The Company intends to begin television advertising, trade merchandising programs, sampling and couponing activities during the second quarter, once it has achieved minimum retail distribution goals. The objective is to obtain consumer trial. Based on test market results, the Company will continue to accelerate its overall marketing efforts to support national distribution. Consequently, marketing expenses will continue to increase over the next several quarters.
The professional programs will involve advertising in professional trade journals, providing patient samples to dentists throughout the U.S. and attending dental conventions, such as the Chicago Dental Society Meeting. The convention will take place from February 19 through February 22 at the McCormick Place. Enamelon expects to distribute approximately 15,000 samples to dentists and dental hygienists. "
