In the report, the analyst notes:

"For the second quarter of 2010, the Company reported a net loss of $4,610,000, or $(0.04) per share, compared with a net loss of $7,366,000, or $(0.07) per share, for the second quarter of 2009. The Company's net loss in the second quarter of 2010 was reduced by other income of $2,440,000, which was recorded to reflect a decrease in the estimated fair value of warrant liability.  

"STEM recently announced the publication of new preclinical data demonstrating that the Company's proprietary human neural stem cells restore lost motor function in mice with chronic spinal cord injury. This is the first published study to show that human neural stem cells can restore mobility even when administered at time points beyond the acute phase of trauma, suggesting the prospect of treating a much broader population of injured patients than previously demonstrated."
