I’m wondering if perhaps revenues this past quarter might have been calculated and leaked. Weeks ago Mike said IMS showed 650 scripts for a week. I don’t remember what Symphony showed for that particular week but it would not have been more than our Symphony high of 502. Thus the IMS report or 650 scripts would have been at least 30% higher than Symphony. Given the large disparity between the two, perhaps they are both way out of whack and our actual scripts/revenues are higher than the Symphony reports and perhaps even higher than both.

All you guys trying to guess, and some fantasizing as well! Impressive.
Here's what I heard, don't ask me where, I've already forgotten. The story is that apparently, a draft of Mike's presentation speech for Monday was lost at dinner two nights ago; he forgot it in his booth, he thought it was a dirty napkin or something and left it. Fortunately, the IHOP bus boy found it, and upon reading it, gave it to the night manager, who knows a guy who knows a guy, and all of a sudden, the draft gets forwarded through to a couple of big hedge fund guys. Well, and, again, I don't know about this, but a copy of the bullet points of the speech gets circulated discreetly in discrete channels, and somehow it made its way into my hands. So, being that the rest of you are sooooooooooo far off, I figured I'd give you all a break. What follows then is my synopsis of the six key points that Mike intends to emphasize at Monday's presentation (along with his notes on them):
First, although the script counts have sucked, including last Friday's count (remember, that's actually tomorrow's count) of 445 TRx, the number to be reported on February 2 (yes, Ground Hog Day), will be upwards of 800. (if asked why this is the case and how I know it, just deflect the question and talk about border protection).
Second, we are being actively pursued by Abbott and Amgen, and that's only taking into account the companies that start with the letter "A." (do not say what numbers are being discussed, but keep mentioning that our office is just down the road from Amgen and ask them if they have trouble connecting dots).
Third, we are deeply involved in negotiations with three Middle Eastern countries, that may bring us as much as $150 million cash up front, with another $2 billion over the next three years. (remember to emphasize the word "may.")
Fourth, we finally got Larry Nasser on board with us and he will be helping us to sell Afrezza within the prison system - we were able to make a very long term agreement with him. (if pressed here, tell them that we also were able to buy a huge policy of life insurance on him, with double indemnity if he is killed in prison).
Fifth, we are in the final stages of an intragalactic deal with the Klingons and the Romulans to distribute Afrezza in the four most populus sectors of our galaxy (it seems that diabetes afflicts more than just earth species). This deal, of course, would have moved much faster, but exchanges of correspondence take so long when you're talking with parties light years apart. (if this is greeted with a degree of skepticism, ask if any of them have ever tried to master the Romulan and Klingon languages in six months).
Sixth, we've reached an agreement with the hosts of Pro Boards to permanently shut down the Mannkind site, as, notwithstanding that it has brought us at MNKD much amusement over time, on balance, it's caused us too much embarrassment over the years. In return for the shut down, we've agreed to put $10 million of the next $100 million of our revenue into a mental health fund from which deserving and needy Pro Board members can draw to seek professional assistance in regaining their mental health and balance." (expect only cheers and sighs of relief here).
So, that's what's coming. You can see where all this volume and share price increase has come. As this leaks out to more and more potential investors, the feeding frenzy will continue right up to the presentation. Personally, I hope it goes just as above, I'm not sure it will, but, you know, I've been told the speech is authentic, and the fact that it was written in crayon only bolsters my confidence. Know that I felt back holding this back from the board today, but my ethics got the best of me this evening, and I felt it righteous to share.

Wow ... crayon boy drinks more wine than I do. Although, it does sound more like a mind on drugs.
Too bad ... I don't think Afrezza will help in this case.

So guys I am brand new to MNKD investing. I had read about their inhalable insulin being developed back in 2011. My significant other is a type-1. We thought it fell by the wayside and I've just discovered w/ my e-trade research. Hah!
My question to you kind folk is; what has your experience with MNKD been thus far, as investors? Are you personally leaning towards MNKD sinking, or swimming; in the next 24 months?
Do you like them as a company? See any major, glaring flaws, in their ability to stabilize and grow?
I bought in, today; 2/3 from top of recent bubble... Major booboo in most cases; but I expect likely good news announced on the 29th; and long term projection of price surpassing $4 before end of 2018.
Am I a fool?
BTW, kudos to the Klingon and Romulan reference above. Everyone knows the Klingon's will never stand for double dealing by MNKD. They will squash any Romulan petaQ's, for the sniveling, conniving dogs that they are; and maybe even incite mutiny on MNKD. Qapla!

Before I venture an answer to your last question ... explain why you think it likely that good news comes on 29th. MNKD has for years done these sorts of conferences and I don't recall a single time where it was the venue to announce something meaningful. At the conference I expect praising jump in revenue (from price hike), some references to negotiating better insurance coverage, work continuing on finding overseas partners and a teasing mention of RLS (we can never see that Mike winks every time he mentions RLS) Oh, and very quick mumbling under his breath about missing guidance last period. Hmm... what has my experience been so far as MNKD investor... well, there was this time I had a laparoscopic operation that went horribly wrong... or there was when I got caught in a rock slide in the mountains. Can't quite pick the perfect analogy. Is your SO wanting to try Afrezza?
