Oct 22nd 2012 - Edison Investment Research today published a report on quickview entitled "It’s Go Time". In summary, the report says:
Ironwood and its US partner Forest Labs are poised for one of the biggest new product launches in years. Linzess (linaclotide), FDA-approved in August and set for US launch in December, addresses the millions of patients globally with chronic constipation disorders so has the potential to achieve >$1bn in peak annual sales. Ironwood’s $1.4bn market cap reflects already high investor expectations, so near-term share price gains largely depend on how Linzess performs out of the gates.
