Small cap generic pharmaceutical stock Lannett Company, Inc (NYSE: LCI) is the�second most shorted stock on the NYSE with short interest of 55.65% according to�Highshortinterest.com. Lannett Company was founded in 1942 and�develops, manufactures, packages, markets and distributes generic pharmaceutical products for a wide range of medical indications and therapeutic areas. The Company believes its ability to select viable products for development, efficiently develop such products (including obtaining any applicable regulatory approvals), vertically integrate�itself into certain specialty markets and achieving economies in production are all critical for its success in the generic pharmaceutical industry in which it operates.

However, Lannett Company has faced�problems multiplied by a debt financed $1.23 billion acquisition of�Kremers Urban Pharmaceuticals more than a year ago that has not proven to be as lucrative as originally expected. The FDA��s decision to withdraw approval of Lannett Company's ability to sell a generic version of�Concerta for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder caused problems.
