In the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 for MedImmune, Inc. (the Company), the sixth paragraph of the Overview under the section captioned Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains the following forward-looking commentary: Our product development objectives include targeting a total of eight new INDs by the end of 2006. We anticipate that we will have four product candidates in Phase 3 studies by the end of 2005, and will be attempting to introduce at least three new products to market by 2009.
Upon further reflection, the Company believes that such commentary should be replaced by the following sentence as it more clearly describes the Companys product development objectives: Our product development objectives include developing Numax as a successor to Synagis, developing FluMist as a superior influenza vaccine and bringing two additional products to market between 2008 and 2010.
This change is reflected in the Companys Annual Report for 2005 included with the Companys Proxy Statement to its shareholders for its 2005 Annual Meeting, first mailed to shareholders on April 15, 2005.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
