Strong growth in multiple markets, especially in Botox - it was recently approved to treat overactive bladder.

BoTox is a verb and is the only FDA-approved treatment for chronic migraine, which is maybe the #2 or #3 contributor of lost work days in the country. And it actually works. I don't think Allergan can help but grow earnings from here.

Many of Allergan's products are tied to the notion of "you, just better". As we're entering this "halftime in America" period, if we'll be doing better we'll want to feel better about ourselves, and AGN will be there to take our money.

Great management. Aesthetic product line will pick up with rebounding economy

lots of medications & patents

The trend for the past year on AGN seems to show that over the long run the stock has a lot of faith from investors, and over time it produces consistent gains. However, the faith in the company will seem rather unjustified in a couple of years, which will not necessarily mean a downturn in price, but it will no longer outperform the market.

The Lap Band will soon be approved for obesity, rather than limited to morbidly obese. Procedure has only been used on 300,000 patients so far and makes up a rather small portion of the AGN profits. Foresee Lap Band profits doubling within the next 5 years.
Botox will continue its domination of market share, and with new procedural uses coming on line (Migraine, seizure) - Botox will double use within next three years

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you....

Botox is already hot. Latisse is moving ahead strongly. And Botox indication for Migraine is pending approval.
Recs
botox will stay popular

good company
Recs
Very successful product line with not much comparable competition (Botox, Juvederm). They also developed less expensive and evasive procedures like eye lash treatments. Especially during tough eco times personal (and more affordable) luxuries like the lash and various derma treatments will allow revenue targets being met. AGN will be doing fine b/c of the current economy.

great new cosmetic product approved by fda will increase sales

The potential that Lumigan will explode profits with little in the way of adverse events. A real positive for a Pharma company.

HEALTH CARE COMPANY

Terrible P/E ratios but the rest of the fundamentals were good enough to sell me. Medical devices, a complement to pharmaceutical as well as a specialty pharmaceutical niche. Had narrow movement in stock price in the past few weeks and I liked the price being toward its 52 week low. Optimistically, I am looking for strength out of this one in a market that is volatile.

A leader in cosmetic medicine in a US market obsessed with appearance and a growing Baby Boomer population.

I work in ophthalmology, and I see a segment of this company's products. In our industry, most are top-notch. However, looking ahead to uncertain economic times, increased competition and possible regulation, I don't think Botox is going to be as hot a product as it has been. My bet is Allergan will continue to slide.
