Weighing Biovail's Claims

Using the same formula as above, this analysis yielded an estimate of 8.8 million Wellbutrin XL pills on the truck, equal to end-user sales of $25.1 million and Biovail royalty revenue of $4.2 million.

On Tuesday, Biovail shares rose 5 cents, or 0.2%, to $22.69. That's about 56% below the stock's 52-week high, reached prior to the truck accident that's still very much in question.
