Quotations

«KCI reported another quarter of (earnings per share) overachievement, but not surprisingly V.A.C. sales came in light.»

«The prominent role of AIDS in the president's speech tonight underscores the continuing battle against AIDS as we expand our AIDS treatment and prevention efforts globally.»

«Additionally, a successful sale would free up cash for management to deploy either in its continued effort to clean up the company's balance sheet, or to repurchase shares, or to pursue M&A opportunities in higher-growth segments.»

«The Transfusion Therapies business has been flat at roughly $550M (million) in sales for the past five years, and it is one of the lower-margin contributors at Baxter as well.»

«Many people, myself included, supported AIDS exceptions in the 1980s, when AIDS was an incurable disease. With AIDS being a treatable illness, it's time to rethink that.»

«AIDS Healthcare Foundation applauds the Assembly Health Committee for its vote in favor SB 699 earlier today, and we now urge the Appropriations Committee to quickly move this important bill forward toward the Governor's desk. Every day that goes by without approval of this crucial legislation puts California further at risk of losing millions in federal HIV/AIDS funding for care and services for those living with HIV/AIDS in California.»

«J&J can do a meaningful, growth-enhancing acquisition without asking (Wall) Street to lower (earnings) estimates. Investors should be buying the shares today, rather than waiting to assess a future deal.»

«We are astounded that the owners of these commercial sex venues would even attempt to pull a stunt like this just to get out of complying with pretty straightforward and prudent public health regulations safeguarding their patrons. These venues should be an important place for HIV prevention providers to offer testing and outreach services to a high-risk population in order to try and break the chain of infection here in Los Angeles. The print ads for several of these establishments running in the current issues of Frontiers and In Los Angeles Magazines, two respected LA area gay publications, put the lie to the owners' claim that these are not commercial establishments where sex takes place.»

«As for the sex club and bathhouse owners' disingenuous denial of what occurs in their clubs, this frivolous lawsuit further delays the roll out of these pretty prudent public health regulations and hampers even the most basic HIV and STD prevention efforts in these high-risk venues. The club owners will become a laughingstock as they try to defend this suit in court.»

«For the year, we had a positive performance from both operations and financial perspectives.»
