On a per-share basis, the company lost 48 cents in the quarter that ended in December, up from a loss of 30 cents during the last quarter of 2006.

But sales rose to $11.19 million, from $7.69 million.

Acorda markets Zanaflex, a treatment for involuntary muscle movements caused by multiple sclerosis and spinal injuries. It is trying to develop Fampridine-SR, another drug for treatment of multiple sclerosis.
