10/09/06 - Dow Jones Newswires

1014 GMT [Dow Jones] WestLB pushes back Sanofi-Aventis' (SNY) Acomplia US launch to 2Q '07, even though the company is still sticking to its 2006 launch forecast. The new forecast takes into account any delay which may be caused by the FDA asking for additional safety data. Keeps estimates unchanged, but notes that given the current uncertainty there is no reason to buy into the shares. Keeps hold recommendation. Trades -0.5% at EUR68.65. (EXB)
