RE: food for thought
I hear ya Sniper.... it would have been nice to have some news flow concurrent with this. I very well may be too optimistic but I honestly feel as if the attitude is different within the company.
It just seems to me that the decision making process and planning has gotten much better. There's little that the new board or senior management can do about the Tunisia or HML mess at this point. It is what it is ! (bertuzzi 05) What they can do is focus on getting value for the technology which we all agree is currently undervalued by the market.
I am not going to rehash my post about value creation within the divisions buy I do truly believe its the correct way to go... ESPECIALLY the UK division. The product is very close to market, its EXTREMELY novel, its very very timely and its very promotable.
I honestly think its possible to do an IPO for the UK division that could exceed the TOTAL current market cap of the company... Think about that.... just ONE division.
In late Q1.... we should be able to be promoting... the final result of the endogenous test, the CE Mark of the new product, and very likely a LEAD ORDER from one or more of the European Blood agencies.
What would you do if you were a UK investor ? They will be ALL OVER IT
Combine all that with Kym Anthony's enthusiasm on Top Meadows... he said to "hang on to your hats" for near term significant announcements. You have to remember, this guy is not a lightweight.... he was CEO of The National Bank for the last 6 years. He's not a pumper, he's a realist with a reputation and the connections to get stuff done......
You combine that with the stuff in the pipe on Cascade and 1402 and I think you are going to see a bunch of news flow over the short term that the market will see as positive. I also think you are going to get a lot of guys back in the story becuase it is going to be very clear very shortly that the SUM of the PARTS are worth alot more than the WHOLE is currently valued in the market.
