chugai shares have biggest fall in 2 years on tami, page-7

re: next announcement SP is based on future profits/ cashflow

in Biota's case there is obviously loads of cash coming very soon in form of royalties

the week should see momentum building for the end of mediation hearing friday - then if it does not come to resolution if will continue as a full on court battle early next year
whatever the outcome this friday - thereafter, the parties can at any time make up and get on with life by settling out of court IMO

this possibility is high - since the longer GSK waits - the stronger Biotas case may get ( orders building with lack of capacity - GSK did not promote Relenza sufficiently - nor did they provide capacity to produce sufficiently

the longer GSK waits - the more obvious it becomes - it will eventually hurt

so GSK would most likely fix this in the next 4 weeks (my guess)
