Morning The.Italian
Ticket to the moon. And that’s just to break even….lol
Morning bignose.who knows,but let us hope so.it has been mildly encouraging to see the s/p rise over last few days,which has been quite a significant increase over the recent all time low,but of course,volumes and value of shares traded have remained determinedly low now if we had high volume???
Going up. China news soon ?

My bad- that's the p value for global impression of severity, not bother. Latter given as a % recording a 1 point or greater improvement over baseline, and while twice as frequently recorded in the treatment group, still impossible to interpret in absence of objective treatment effect (moreover, may have involved only single treatment period encounter, and only 38 subjects on treatment. Even if there had been clear objective treatment difference, ITT population too small to support validation).
Bothwell, this certainly has the hallmarks of classic Gibson waffle, simply re-hashing past half-truths, and with lines lifted verbatim from past releases. Or has someone been helping you play with ChatGPT?
As for the PRO results "speaking for themselves", the published data screams "no significant difference in post-treatment IELT between treatment and placebo", a 50% placebo response versus 70% treatment response for subjective endpoints, and probably most damning of all with respect to PRO validation, no difference in global impression of change between treatment and placebo groups at end of treatment. True, the difference between means for Item 3 did reach significance (P = 0.0031), but impossible to interpret this in the absence of clear-cut objective and subjective treatment effects.
So, do you have the guts to look at the data (simple comparison of means is all that's needed), or too frightened to test faith with fact? Or why not cut through the waffle and ask outright "has the FDA accepted that the Phase II study data validates bother as an acceptable co-primary endpoint, and that the PEBEQ is now validated as an appropriate instrument"?
Yes bothwell that is the issue , we need massive growth for some long term investors to even get back to even. Then we would need another big growth period to make long term hold worthwhile. Lets hope they can deliver against the odds!
Dilution has killed our investment but also kept us alive. Need to get 20 x the current SP to get back to evens then make some money!!!! Still go six years!!!
If we require extra money then I do hope it is a loan as they now know they will get it back. Dilution would be terrible for us again.

Morning Bignose, thank you for getting in contact with the BoD and asking the correct questions. It really is a shambles that China isn’t further on and the US is not closer to completion. Can believe JM is just paying Jamie to do nothing. Dr Mike seems to have vanished off the scene. Dilution was a terrible for us private holders but good for the BoD. 2025 has now move to 2026. I finally have no confidence in the BOD had my investment has gone.
Well another new low today with a market cap of 9.33mil squid. Not bad for a company that has a needed product which has been on sale in Europe since Nov 2016......COUGH.

Could you imagine how many people would be arrested today just for thinking that. A few years ago maybe, but certainly not today :-O
Hey darling, wanna see my new 64k banana.....lol
Morning bignose.well that is an interesting take on things.i certainly hope your interpretation is correct.fingers crossed as always.do you think Apple would have had the same degree of success is they had been called "Banana"? hey guys, come and see my new Banana, doesn't seem to have quite the right ring to it.lol
That should have been ‘unrecognised’. Typing on my iPad has always been a pain. The screen constantly refreshes due all the damned adverts. :-( sometimes I’ve even lost whole messages before being able to post. I give up in the end. I’d probably get more posted typing on a banana rather than my apple…..lol
Morning The.Italian,
With respect to the “significant and previously recognised demand”. The only thing I would write about that is. If Recordati didn’t see that, why would they spend so much time patently waiting for PSNW to solve the issue. Then get their own recommended manufacturer to sort it, unless they are really stupid, which, going by the companies progress year on year, would indicate otherwise.
Obviously only time will tell, but they certainly do give the impression that they still have (in the words of Charles Dickens) great expectations. ;-)

Bothwell,
I cannot help feel that the FDA process will take much longer than 2025. Firstly, according to the 2019 presentation, the FDA wants 172 subjects and given how long it has taken just to sort out 87 for phase 2, it could take 3 years before the NDA is submitted. Then there is the issue with manufacturer, which has not even been discussed and of course the pre launch marketing and distribution logistics. (Would they really only want to launch in one state ?).
With China it could be another 2 years before any income stream is seen since they have stated they intend to target 9mill subjects. That is going to require a production line which can produce at lease 300k cans/month and that's if they only intend to target 3.6mill sufferers.
Anyway, I did email the company and had a response a day later (As i wrote it pays to copy the big 3 -Jim/Jamie/Mike plus company secretary since they are then obliged to answer. as long as its not abusive which in my case needed a lot of restraint....lol).
Anyway, I'll post the response which does make for some interesting reading regarding finance requirements, although I have asked for further clarifications. It certainly reads as positive for Europe although I am still skeptical since we have heard it all before regarding timelines and what their future plans are.
I would love to retain your optimism bothwell but mine is long gone! It’s damage limitation at this point and I’m just hoping we can pull something back respectable . How can faith in this team still be here with what has gone on so far ?
I love the optimism even though it is, yet again, a significant distance way. At 90% underwater on this particular ‘money fountain’ I will be truly delighted if your optimistic prophecy materialises.
As I said a year or so ago, I have a feeling that 2025 is the year we will see the approval in the US complete and possibly a China at the beginning of 2025. Jim Mellon isn’t investing his millions in here to keep Jamie living he could just move him to another of his companies.
And of course a new low.

Not able to follow any of their timelines.
Not keeping shareholders sufficiently updated.
Have next to no transparency.
Continually providing misleading information.
Making bad investment decisions.
And
Totally demolishing shareholder investment.

It has happened before on a one lot buy or sell. Who knows the machinations of the MM's, although I don't think the lack of shares available is a reason given the MM's must be holding quite a few themselves now. Of course nothing like the liquidity last weeks annual results would have us believe.

Morning bignose.no problem.optimism is probably going it a bit.just relief that we did not get the bad news i was more than half expecting. i do of course,entirely agree with your post (and yours dougie,morning).the level of failure to advise as to promulgated developments is what you would expect from the most tin pot of aim companies and this is,despite its pitiful market cap,a main market company.anyway, question is will we get an announcement of china submission in next couple of weeks or silence and more delay?place your bets.
i hope mrs wylie,who is after all an innocent bystander in this sorry story, does not take offence at my poor attempt at humour,or else i shall also be exiled to the realm of those to whom no communication may be extended!
bothwell good morning to you also. i suspect we are,sadly, very far from mellon's thoughts now.
Maybe time to email Jim Mellon with your thoughts Bignose?
Why do they take offence when people question announcements that turn out to be incorrect? Constant delays , stating negotiations with certain territories are taking place for years but never a sign of a deal , unanswered communications showing no regard for investors.
of course investors will be angry when they feel they are given false hope , how could they expect anything else . Especially when share price has been obliterated through this time eroding any value for people.

Contd....
Then there was the Yooya fiasco, thankfully for us shareholders that didn't work out, but just reflect if it had. RPG wanted to pay 15mill usd for the company yet today its worth 1mill and last year closed shop in Japan, their supposed largest Asian market!!! RPG even stated in the fall out (remember the delay after delay after delay in getting the paperwork out) they had a more concrete investment, but gave no information and still have not clarified what that was all about (more likely a deflection from the embarrassment that Jim couldn't get his own way and would subsequently lose face).
Although I have written many times on the incompetence shown by the company, the above few examples are much much worse. How can a company publish such nonsense. How can a company still be run by a BOD and CEO who have absolutely no idea what is going on in their own company? It certainly seems Jim is totally oblivious to it as is shown by the rubbish he writes in the chairman's statement. Obviously he is being fed information he is supposed to write (that's if he actually does write anything).
I would have much rather they injected whatever cash they had into completing the FDA process instead of wasting money on the DBC and the DLI which have done nothing but cost shareholders dearly in money and consequently dilution and ultimately share price. I cannot see any income coming from the DLI to help alleviate the constant call for cash to keep the lights on particularly given they don't even announce when deals have been agreed which must mean they add up to next to nothing.
What's next ? who knows, but one thing is for sure if they don't sort their finances out for the next 3 years, come 2025 there may not be a company still around for us to discuss.
Although I am somewhat disappointed with respect to the Chinese submission as it now delays possible approval by 6 more months which will add time to when any income stream is seen. If they have not sorted a manufacturer till now, I would suspect they wont have sorted out distribution of product etc etc either, meaning that any income from the 9mill target sufferers may not happen till the end of 2025 or even the beginning of 2026 and that's when sales will start so RPG may not see any money till towards the end of 2026. If that is indeed the case and there is a good possibility that may happen, what money will the company run on ?
There may be a 4mill usd cash injection (less tax) triggered by the approval, but that surely will be used to offset any loan to get the company even to that point. Surely there will be a point when even Jim will get fed up loaning the company money and seeing no return. And then what about the monies needed for the phase III they cannot run a phase III without spending more money???
The FDA process has been nothing more than a car crash since the beginning. They wrote a lot about how it was there main objective however, its been nothing more than a disaster time after time. The original unambiguous FDA RNS in March 2014 with a follow up to say they expected approval by June/July 2017 was nothing more than lies. There has been no announcement as to why and what had changed changed. Instead all they did was kept giving excuses and delays. The phase II which was for only 100 subjects (I'll write that again 100 subjects !!!) has so far taken nearly 6 years from when shareholders were told recruitment had started, which it didn't. It then started at the end of Dec 2018 and was supposedly going to take 15 months and be completed by March 2020. 8 months into the study, we were told that the study would be completed 3 months early and be completed by the end of Dec 2020. Meaning that over 50% of subjects must have been processed, however. In Jan/Feb 2021 shareholders were informed only 15 subjects had been processed, which meant effectively the statement advising of a reduced timescale was nothing more than a known lie. And what about the licensee. The media were told in 2014 that the company was close to signing heads of terms with a US licensee. Yet still no reason was given as to why they walked away and stayed away.
Cans if……lol
Bothwell, I suspect the delay on the China submission is because they are now also sorting out a manufacturer. Why they didn’t do this a year ago beats me. Particularly since it’s very clear the new eu manufacturer will not be up to the job. China needs at least 1 mill can is they are targeting 9 mill sufferers in the first year.
I have sent him a couple of emails but no response from him. Usually very good.

Date of Board Meeting
The board of directors (the “Board”) of Regent Pacific Group Limited
(the “Company”) announces that a meeting of the Board will be held on
Wednesday, 27 March 2024 for the purpose of, among other matters, approving
the final results of the Company and its subsidiaries for the year ended
31 December 2023 and its publication, and considering the recommendation on
the payment of a final dividend, if any.
I suppose “soon” could mean a lot of different things to regent. USA approval and more license agreements around the globe have been close for 10 years according to announcements
Same "friend" that told you China and the US are "going to happen"? And is that friend in the room with you now?
I was told soon…
Until you posted that, I was not expecting anything apart from what would be included in the year end results. Meaning nothing positive since they surely would have to announce any positive news as they have done all previous years.
But as I also wrote. Since they own nigh on 60% of the shares and probably have already informed those of importance, the average PI will not get to know until the said results. Just my opinion of course, but it certainly appears to be going that way.

Graced with a quietly knowing smile, rather than a smirk, although with the occasional hint of smugness. I do look forward to a few hearty belly laughs on reading the next company update. Parrot-jiggling at its finest.
Send it to Jim and copy Jamie and the company secretary. You are more likely to get a response.
Jim doesn't necessarily always respond, but Jamie usually does after being told by Jim to pull his finger out.
That's from my past experience.
Of course, if you add that JG and the BOD are all incompetent, that will surely get JG's hackles up and he will more than likely respond and probably all in capitals......lol
Sent email to Jamie and Dr Mike a number of weeks ago and no response. They would always respond before.
At least we have one happy non investor who has always displayed erudite and informative negative comments. Always accompanied with a slight smirk me thinks.

What the f**k happened to my capitalisation?
"sell the product outright"...might be difficult when rpg don't have anything to sell. as stated multoties ante, no licensable or transferable intellectual property or commercial protection exists anywhere in the world.
past licences have been simple grants of commercial rights to an approved product. recordati is the de facto mah in europe (and owner of the fortacin trademark), and manufacturing know-how, if any, belongs to them and/or their subcontractor. in the increasingly unlikely event of approval in china (submission stimmied by historical cmc issues, a phantom reference product, and perhaps iffy data and cold feet over market potential), fosun would be the domestic mah and own the registration package.
so, what is in the ple lucky bag? an ind and clinical data package kicked into the long grass by the fda nearly 15 years ago, phase ii pilot data which failed to show any difference between treatment and placebo, the *** end of the recordati agreement, oh, and the orient europharma agreement, although hard to expect a royalty when you can't supply product. and of course that well known senstend trademark...
"remarkable bird, the norwegian blue... beautiful plumage!!
Fair enough bignose. all water under the bridge as they say. been out in the garden this morning spreading some manure ,which in the circumstances here seems very apposite. not sure what brand it was, but something like "mellon's magic" i think! gla.
Morning The.Italian. Not wanting to contradict, but for clarification. The listing was worth 40mill GBP before several dilutions. 40 cents today is, well. A lot lot less than the 40Mill GBP (or was it USD ?....makes no difference still a lot less.). :-)
Morning keith. looks like we are all singing pretty much off the same song sheet. doubt there is much chance of anyone seeking to acquire fortacin. does DLI have any value? probably not. still inclined to think mellon may seek to take it private.no doubt we all recall the assertions that the listing alone was worth 40 cents. what a load of nonsense that was.

Yes,thanks for those bothwell.dont think I've seen them before.serves to highlight the frustration at not having heard anything since end of august financials, when they said they were hoping for SPA approval by end of 2023. obviously they haven't got it as they would have announced it. if no prospect now of getting it they need to come clean and say so.
Thanks for sharing bothwell. For the last 8 years it’s been .. next year will be the year. Continuous cycle of delaying ! One day it may well be a good investment but for who? For investors already massively down it would take a big turn around. Also never understand why the chairman does not bring attention to regent at his master investor events.

There are probably 2 good reasons….. apols for the typo ;-)
So….If or when the patent runs out, will Recordati renegotiate a contract or will the existing contract have some clause already included, although I would suspect there is already some a definitive contact duration with clauses for continuation. I wonder if there was even a clause for them to apply for the OTC approval. Not sure if they would even consider renewing given how bad sales have been, although there is probably 2 good reasons to continue. Getting a local Italian manufacturer and obtaining OTC approval which cost both time and money. I wonder what their long term plan is?
FFS...how many more times?
Patent coverage expired in all territories in 2016 (and in the US in 2014). SPCs granted in a few European countries post-approval, all since expired.
Value of Fortacin as an intangible asset was based on the EMA 10 year market exclusivity which expired November 2023, along with some made-up fluff about revenue in other territories.
With no existent IP or other commercial protection in any territory, no need for amortization charge. Carrying value negligible, since only basis can be the NPV of the tail end of the Recordati agreement (less than four years away), Orient Europharma sales (if they ever get product- last imported batch expired Jan 2023), and risk-adjusted NPV for China (which I would not count on...).
Posts crossed. not sure there are any optimists left,but it's see what happens.
Morning bignose. yes finally. not sure about the implications of the end of the amortisation period.may make us look better in accounting terms,but the reality of no income is what matters.clearly no appreciable income (apart from the tax credit) in the period, as it would have been mentioned.there was no operational update with the PW last time either, but if there had been any good news i think they would have announced it. not looking good im afraid.

The current market cap to long term RPG investors is only about 0.5mill gbp. For long term Ple investors it’s around 1mill gbp.

I can certainly remember shaw taylor.very much an "evening all" from jack warner as george dixon man myself though. much as i enjoyed being reminded of the positive profit alert, i very much doubt either of us are holding our breath for a repeat!
Anyway, in the words of Shaw Taylor off that well known tv program, junior police 5. “keep ‘‘em peeled” (if anyone can remember him or even the program….lol)
Going by the last 2 years, we could see an announcement tomorrow or next week.
2019 there was no profit warning or indeed, dare I write, a positive profit alert.
In 2021 the profit warning wasn’t made until the 2nd of March, however. Before the announcement which included an op update, there were 4 op updates preceding which could be the reason it was delayed by a few weeks.
Last post: bignose58, 13 Feb 2024 07:28
Dougie,
That is indeed true, but as I have mentioned before, RPG are supposed to have run out of money come the end of Feb, then what ? Given the A team and their hangers on own 60%, where will that leave private investors if another cash injection is needed. The only hope left for us is if there were a US agreement signed which I would expect would inject some operating cash and they agree to pay for the phase III. Unfortunately, if any agreement were to have been signed, they must give out that information to the market immediately and since they have not, then I can only assume an agreement is still not in place.
Of course I don't expect JM will want to expose himself further in buying more shares (or even taking the company private as that is not his usual MO), so the only thing left is for him is to lend the company money which would need to be 8 to 10mill to pay for operating costs and the phase III, although it will still need to be paid back.
Unless they sell the whole product, which is not out of the question, but then again, for how much ? We are so so close to turning things around (I'm referring to China now), so why sell ???
For all we know Europe could have suddenly come on line and we are saved, which is very doubtful on only 30k cans every 4 months.....cough
Just my thoughts on the matter. I could be totally wrong .. :-)
The fact they have a market cap over 100 mill and we are around 10 mill sums the managements performance up over the last few years. At least we can live in hope some updates one day in the long term future may take us up a notch or two if we still exist .
The market cap would have been even worse if they had purchased yooya for 15 mill which currently is only valued at 1 mill. The.Italian was indeed right when he wrote we had dodged a bullet with that one. The DBC and DLI have faired no better, but at least less dilution was involved. These monies spent could have been used much more productively. And although they needed to make some investment, they could have used a 10th of the money invested in productive companies rather than flushing it down the toilet buying and investing in useless companies
Where FUM is ahead of the game is they are now in profit and sales appear to be currently increasing exponentially. Given they currently only have a market cap of 134mill squid, there is still huge upside.
RPG are at only 11mill squid which could be an even higher upside as long as we don’t run out of money or are diluted to double the fcuk. The next few weeks will tell us where we are or indeed if we are nowhere. ;-)
It's not a case of a better product since FUM's is for ED and RPG's is for PE
What is comparable are the number of sufferers which are around the same, however. Fortacin is supposedly open to a larger market share given the number of currently available products out there. Also, we are ahead of the game with FUM when China is considered since approval is expected towards Q4 this year. This in itself exposes us to an approximate market of around 175 million sufferers. Even with a lower price than the US and even with taking account of a small % in penetration, its still adds up to a few hundred million in sales.
What is a huge disappointment is the FDA approval process where shareholders have been lied to, misled with a total lack of transparency. (an unambiguous way forward and FDA approval expected in June 2017).
When RPG touches anything, its done by complete amateurs'. That's why the Chinese process has gone pretty smoothly.

Morning all.not been much to say im afraid,although i do of course, endorse fully all the justified animadversions directed at the PBOD over the last few days.presumably we will get a profit warning in next couple of weeks(last year 17th feb)don't expect any detail ,but we may perhaps glean some idea of developments from any change in the amortisation rate.if it increases it will presumably indicate lack of good news on china/us progress.anyway,we will see.
Will the market cap reach the dizzy low of 5mill squid. Gulp
The most transactions in a long long time, although mostly for single 10k lots and indicative of not many free shares and it still goes down. Seems those that want to sell are accepting whatever is offered.
