Question: How do you tell if the shares were granted vs. purchased? I am assuming purchased, but don't know how to confirm.

Glad to see that management is putting skin into the game. For such a long time there was anemic holdings by anybody on the management team. Regardless if the shares were gifted or purchased this indication is that positive things are ahead for MannKind.
The seeds have been planted now we just have to wait for them to sprout from the ground.

One thing is certain...there's no one working in Mannkind headquarters who believes they have a cash problem that won't be solved in the near term. We don't know why they think this. We can guess but they're certainly in a much better position to follow their knowledge and instincts than negative market analysts.

Question: How do you tell if the shares were granted vs. purchased? I am assuming purchased, but don't know how to confirm. If they were granted, the price would be $0. In this case, the price is $1.92 so they were purchased. It isn't an open market buy (usually the most bullish transaction), but it is still a good indicator if employees are purchasing shares.

I once saw a pretty girl name Lilly. I believe she had magic beans too. Lots and lots of magic beans.

Just to clarify, since these purchases were part of the “new purchase program” just rolled out..are we saying that this does not restrict them from announcing anything substantial in the coming days/weeks?

If this is an existing plan, in other words it was filed a while ago, then that is correct. Starting a plan with an immediate buy just before a major event would be sailing extraordinarily close to the wind as it is potentially insider trading.

The Form S 8 for the stock purchase plan was filed on June 5. Cutting it close? Maybe. I am sure David Thomson is aware of what the SEC would consider a violation of insider trading rules before they pulled the trigger on the purchases. We couldn't have the whole MNKD team carted off to jail.

It just so happens that I also purchased shares today at $1.92, but only 1000 shares. I hope those are the last shares I buy under $3.00.
I think that I am pretty much finished buying, at least until after the ADA unless scripts are over 600 tomorrow. Then, I might be tempted.
Sounds wishy washy ... mishy mashy ... you have to commit to a strategy ! Whether it is wrong or right. Or ... you can send me $20 and I'll tell you what to do. ($20 is for postage and handling ... advice is for free.)

We couldn't have the whole MNKD team carted off to jail. There is no insider trading here with regard to the ADA. The subjects of the MNKD ADA papers are public knowledge. That docs don't believe the results when they are told about the STAT trial has been mentioned several times. So we know the results are good. It's just that WS either hasn't been listening or has ignored what Castagna and Kendall have been saying.
Castagna has also said that scripts will be accelerating soon. So if that happens, it should be no surprise either, except to WS.
The purchase just says that the stock is undervalued, and after the ADA presentations WS will believe.
And it also likely means that there is no TreT partnership within the next several weeks, nor any additional international Afrezza partnerships to be announced soon.

We couldn't have the whole MNKD team carted off to jail. David Thomson is a smart guy. So are the guys who all just bought the stock. The question I have is should I listen to guys like Spence Osborne and RisingSkeptic or should I follow the lead of the guys working the issues every day and who spoke with their own money?
I have waited a long time for a day of such confusion.
