The firm comments, "Bottom Line: Our due diligence points to a significant transformation occurring in the obesity space, similar in scope to smoking cessation a decade ago. The result should be a robust market expansion story advanced by: 1) novel more potent drugs; 2) increasing reimbursement; 3) significant sales & marketing efforts, and; 4) more approvals of effective therapies with co-morbid disease benefits. The initial Qsymia launch has been slow but significant drivers lie on the horizon."
