GuruFocus Profitability Rank ranks how profitable a company is and how likely the company’s business will stay that way. It is based on these factors:

1. Operating Margin
2. Trend of the Operating Margin (5-year average). The company with an uptrend profit margin has a higher rank.
••3. Consistency of the profitability
4. Piotroski F-Score
5. Predictability Rank•

The maximum rank is 10. A rank of 7 or higher means a higher profitability and may stay that way. A rank of 3 or lower indicates that the company has had trouble to make a profit.

Profitability Rank is not directly related to the Financial Strength Rank. But if a company is consistently profitable, its financial strength will be stronger.

Business Description

Aastrom Biosciences, Inc. was incorporated in 1989 and are a regenerative medicine company focused on the development of innovative cell therapies to repair or regenerate damaged or diseased tissues. It is a regenerative medicine company focused on the clinical development of autologous cell products (cells collected from a patient and returned to that same patient) for the repair or regeneration of multiple human tissues, based on proprietary Tissue Repair Cell (TRC) technology. Preclinical and clinical product development programs utilize patient-derived bone marrow stem and early progenitor cell populations, and are being investigated for their ability to aid in the regeneration of tissues such as cardiac, vascular, bone and neural. TRC-based products have been used in over 290 patients and are currently in various stages of development. Aastrom has developed a manufacturing system to produce human cells for clinical use, and all TRC-based products are produced using the firm's cell manufacturing system in centralized manufacturing facilities. The company is currently focused on utilizing its technology to produce expanded, patient specific multicellular products for use in severe, chronic ischemic cardiovascular indications. It owns 8 of these patents and 6 of these patents have been licensed exclusively from the University of Michigan; 5 of the University of Michigan patents will expire in 2012. Its products are subject to regulation as biological products under the Public Health Service Act and the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.
