GENERAL COMMENTS

 

 APOTEX INC. is well established with annual sales in the CDN 1.6 billion. Payments are sometimes late. Several large claims were reported against the Firm, the status is uncertain as no further information is currently available.

 

Collectively the claims amount to a rather large sum and if unsettled could possibly create some adverse effect on the financial condition of the firm. The subject is believed to be responsible for normal business transactions at this  time.
