Finally someone got it right on the $900,000. It is definitely a gross amount but they did not actually receive $900,000. BOL withheld the amount due them on the repayment of the $5,000,000. This came from the man who received the money from Pharmos. Dont think he would fabricate this item. He was the one who told me the money would be booked in the second quarter, when Gwyn the P.R. person was telling everybody it would not be recognized until the 3rd quarter.. I am not as technically minded as you sir, so cannot comment on why the dosage has been reduced in the latest group of patients. Your analysis sounds logical, company just trying to cover all bases getting ready for phase 3. More importantly is the question on how much more drug needs to be put in the pipeline, and how much Pharmos will receive in the third quarter. My guess is that 3rd quarter receipts will approximate $2,000,000 to $2,500,000. That could permit the company to break even in the third quarter. As to the purchase of product, my source told me some time ago, that Pharmos has bought product sufficient for one year to fill the pipeline. This came out of the original $5 million loaned to them by BOL. They ship the raw product to BOL as needed etc. He also thought it was possible that July receivables from BOL may not equal the $900,000. received at the end of June. Reorders will become a factor and a function on the amount of RX's are written by the Doctors of this country. LIf the EU approves marketing of the drug, there will be a substantial pipeline to fill over there. If it goes country by country it will be slower. Perhaps some one on this thread knows if licensing in Europe is on a country by country basis or whether there can be one stop approvals out of Luxemburg or Belgium (Headquarters of the EU.) .Does anyone know if any product is sold in Israel? Hope the information has been informative. For any comments I can be reached at Willemspal@AOL.com Robert
