Storm clouds getting darker for troubled Seattle biotech Dendreon

I would bet every penny I have that you have never worked a day of your life for a pharma or biotech company. You are trying to profit from any damage you cause Dendreon and Dendreon employees by overrunning this board with a constant steam of complete bullshit. You figure that the more prospective and current employees you can chase away with your lies, the more damage you can cause for Dendreon employees and Dendreon. I would recommend that since you are so full of hate for Dendreon and Dendreon employees, none of which is warranted, it would be best for you and anyone you come in contract with, that you immediately seek out mental health treatment. For anyone that reads this board it is becoming increasing clear that you are in desperate need of psychiatric care before you hurt someone or yourself.

Then you would lose. I worked at DNDN for three years and it was the most toxic environment I ever had the displeasure of working for. If you as a (mythical DNDN employee you should be able to answer this: who was thebdirectorbofbquality who was laid off with the riff? Who was the quality manager and why did she leave. You know nothing liar

Thanks for pointing this out. I too have noticed that several of his malicious misinformation threads have been pulled as well. This one will probably be pulled as well. Pathetic that a stock trader would be so desperate to make a few pennies off any damage he can cause the company and our coworkers. We help cancer patients every day, but this person could care less. A decent person would try to help the company and would not be spreading malicious rumors.

You are not helping patients because no one is using your drug! Talk about propoganda!
 






I worked at Dendreon Seal Beach before the plant was built. I was laid off in the second riff. When I first started, the morale there was really high, but once our stock starting drifting downwards, the morale was bad. It is still bad. I keep in contact with quite a few people that STILL work there. Management has changed, people have changed. I wish them all the best.

You are kidding right. Speaking of malicious rumors and propoganda. We treated well over 3,000 patients in the last 12 months. There are 30,000 eligible patients in the US. This figure is growing well in the US. Soon we will be matching that number in Europe. I am proud and thrilled to be a part of this company and so are the majority of my coworkers.
 


















He told the Seattle Times last week that it’s the only such forecast he’s offered, pointing out that it has $620 million in convertible debt due in 2016 and it’s $280 million in cash is being consumed at $50 million a quarter.

That seems worse than storm clouds. Seems like a company that may have been ravaged by greed by current and/or past executives and BoD.

Clear to me as well that is exactly what's going on.

I could not agree more.
 






How does a CEO get away with telling the public he's going to address the convertible bonds and by addressing it he says he will discuss it at the next earnings conference call?

Those matters are so important to Dendreon employees and anyone who has any interest in the company.

His statement that he will do what is best for the company can be construed in many ways. What is best for the company is not necessarily best for those in the trenches who work their asses off every day to try to bring in sales for the company to support their families.

CEOs can do anything they want. Baseless forecasts. Trading on inside information. You name it. Just look at the last one.
 













Burned through another 34M in cash in the 4th quarter. There is currently less cash left than was burned through in 2013. Seems that the most likely options are bankruptcy or a sale at about current valuation. Who would pay much of a premium when it seems there aren't many options for the company?

Our stock was up 10% today on the 4th quarter results released. The market viewed 4Q highly favorably with sales up 10% for the quarter. Company has $200 million in cash today. Cash burn is the lowest since launch. What planet do you live on?

Stock? The stock is down almost 4% since December 19.

The 3rd quarter of 2013 was an absolute disaster. Beating that number by 10% doesn't say much.

Comparing the 4th quarter of 2012 with the 4 quarter of 2013, revenues are down over 8%. That's a major regression a full year later. Maybe that's why JD is only one of 2 executives who didn't get free shares. The other executive left today.

And this delay in this trial in the EU re: manufacturing process/automation seems like more terrible news for the company. They can market the therapy in the EU, but will they ever be able to make money in the EU? This time delay from January 2014 to January 2015 seems to be a significant new headwind for the company and its value in any possible takeover.
