During fiscal 2007, ETHEX Corporation received three approvals from the FDA, including: Diltiazem HCL extended release capsules, Nystatin Topical Powder and a new formulation of Prednisolone Sodium Phosphate. The Company remains optimistic about the potential FDA approvals of important new Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDA's) from its robust internal pipeline as it moves through fiscal 2008, which are expected to benefit the overall performance of its generic/non-branded marketing business.
In addition to the large portfolio of products in its own internal
development pipeline, the Company also continues to see progress on its
products under its co-development agreements. The Company believes that co-
development agreements will continue to add incremental revenues to ETHEX's
revenue base from its existing products, resulting from new planned
introductions during the remainder of fiscal 2008 and beyond.
