Canaccord Genuity reiterates a 'Buy' on Amarin Corporation (NASDAQ: AMRN) price target of $35.00.

Canaccord analyst, Ritu Baral, says, "Reiterate rating and price target on commercial, partnership potential of AMR101. AMR101 is AMRN’s 96% EPA omega-3 drug for very high triglycerides (TG). AMRN plans to submit the AMR101 NDA for high TG in Q3/11. We think AMR101 will be approved mid-2012. We expect significant progress in IP and business development in H2/12."

"After reviewing the PTO examiner’s responses to AMRN’s counterarguments in the June non-final rejection, we think future discussion with the PTO will focus on non-obviousness and surprising findings based on a person with ordinary skill in the art. We think additional responses and office actions may extend into H1/12."
