VALUATION METHODOLOGY AND RISKS

Valuation Methodology

Biotechnology:

In calculating our 12-month target price, we employ one or more valuation methodologies,

which include a discounted earnings analysis, discounted cash flow analysis, net present value

analysis and/or a comparable company analysis. These analyses may or may not require

the use of objective measures such as price-to-earnings or price-to-sales multiples as well as

subjective measures such as discount rates.

We make investment recommendations on certain early stage, pre-revenue companies based

upon an assessment of their business model, technology, probability of market success,

and the potential market opportunity, balanced by an assessment of applicable risks. Such

companies may not be assigned a price target.
