Biovail Corp (USA) (BVF)

CAPS Rating:
****

A specialty pharmaceutical company that applies advanced drug-delivery technologies to improve the clinical effectiveness of medicines. Its main therapeutic areas are central nervous system disorders, pain management and cardiovascular disease.

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 players 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.

Avatar MichaelTrib (< 20) Submitted: 6/02/08 6:44 PM : Outperform Start Price: $11.70 BVF Score: -5.20

Biovail has been beaten down from its 52-week high of $26.48, has a low P/E 12.01 and dishes out a nice dividend, returning 12.80 percent.





Recent buyback of 14.4 million shares is a bullish signal and an indication company officials are confident that BVF is undervalued.

Wellbutrin generics should continue to come under pressure from their poor efficacy vis-a-vis the brand name product. Huge buybacks on the horizon. Refocused management has put past scandals behind them and looks to pour cash into R & D pipeline stocked with potential market-leading products.
