ALTN has 17 millions shares outstanding and their CFO said
they have 29 million in cash. That works out to $1.7/share
already :)

The idea that better drugs may be in the pipeline is moot. If pimagidine does not pan out ALTN is history. There is no way that investors are going to fund a new drug all the way through these very expensive clinical trials after a pimagedine disaster. As pointed out, things may be better than appears at the moment. But, focus on the current Phase IIIs and their outcomes. That is what will determine if ALTN becomes profitable or a penny stock.
