I would guess SGP would report retail sales since they are the distributor. I'm not sure how Zonagen will show it because they don't have retail sales. They have sales to their distributors. Also, PFE was reporting numbers from the US. I would guess that it is much easier to do here than in Mexico. I know from VVUS that coming up with foreign information is incredibly difficult at best. I know some of these companies book the sales when the truck leaves the warehouse. If Zonagen is doing this then everything they ship to SGP so that SGP can fill their supply channels COULD show up as sales and falsely show higher demand than is actually there. Of course, they would have to have some allowances for returns, but, we all know those kinds of numbers are the basis of judgement and if ZONA feels they will sell through everything they ship to their distributors then they could just book everything shipped out.
