Minrad International, Inc. (BUF)

CAPS Rating:
****

An interventional pain management company with three focus areas such as anesthesia and analgesia, real-time image guidance and conscious sedation.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

This week's 10.6% share price increase came after announcing (1) a
losing quarter (a production disruption resulted in a drop in sales);
(2) hiring of a new CEO; and (3) dribbling out news that Q1 sales will
be about 40% higher than all of 2006! BUF fans saw this coming.

I think that $6.50 by the end of 2008 is "likely", and $10/
share is "possible" if a big pharma acquisition is in play. Look at
the new CEO's background:

"David DiGiacinto has been named as president and chief operating
officer, effective April 1, 2008, when he will take over the day-to-
day operations of the Orchard Park company (AMEX: BUF). Plans then
call for DiGiacinto to become chief executive officer on Jan. 1, 2009,
replacing William Burns Jr.

DiGiacinto is joining Minrad from Spencer Trask & Co., a New York City-
based private equity firm, where he served as a Senior Managing
Director. Spencer Trask invests primarily in early stage companies
with technologies in a variety of market segments. DiGiacinto is
familiar with Minrad as an early stage investor in 1999 and provided
the primary financing to Minrad through 2002. He also spent 18 years
at Pfizer Inc." [bizjournals.com]

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
