  • at full capacity 40% share of enoxaparin market. Surely Teva/ Amphastar can take another 40% of the market. I do not see topline share of Sandoz going down, though the royalties to Momenta will come down significantly. But then Momenta is sitting on 300m$ cash and a 300m$ valuation of the cash flow of reduced royalties. In addition a possibility to launch Copaxone generic should enable it to sustain a market cap of approx. 750m$. I conservatively see a target price of 14$/ share in next 3 months.
