SC, mail me sometime when you get time. Yep PR is shocking but it’s been that way since they got involved with AZ. That might have something to do with it. If not it’s very sporting. Lovely day today, enjoyed the weather. See what unfolds next week. Sorry to hear about your friend, amazing though what treatments are available now to prolong life.
L&L
Good to see that you have cheered up. You sounded very depressed in your last post.
I have never doubted the company, but have lost total confidence in the CEO's attitude towards the private shareholders.
Still keeping an eye out for some stability in the sp movements and will rejoin once all the see-sawing has been curtailed.
SC, well that’s my 550 prediction by Friday gone for a burton. It must be all the Chinese whispers!! Try again next week, meanwhile I will change my tea leaves and look out for some company PR improvement next week!!
I’m staying put as there’s a few pointers to consider here.
1. Only 74 million shares in issue or around that figure.
2. Cash in the bank over a hundred mil.
3. 70 plus gold standard products in the portfolio.
4. Company adapts quickly to change.
5. GM wanting to go mid cap.
6. Actively looking at aquisitions.
7. Diversification of product line with non COVID products.
There’s a few reasons I’m hanging fire and also we are not out of this mess yet, variants could cause a few headaches yet!! Share price right now seems to be at the floor, just need resolve with DHSC and other news.
L&L
Sorry to have been so dense. Thanks for providing your email address. I feel honoured that you trust me with it.
I'm very sorry for your loved one with stage 4 cancer. I have a friend in the same situation and she too is made of strong stock as she's been fighting it for 5 years and her only complaint is the pain of chemotherapy which she says is worse than the cancer, but it keeps her alive. I'm really glad the person you care for recovered. I agree, lots of things are more important than money - family, friends, health, integrity and many more. I'm sorry if I sounded materialistic. If you knew me, you would not think that. I won't give examples as it would be crass. I'll stop here and email you later.
Most agree that novacyt now need to put the DHSC behind us. Most are fed up with the cheap chinese imports and the disrespect shown to the company that has been helping to fight the pandemic right from the first test.
S.p. angel are pleasantly surprised at the first quarter figures. And when the infection numbers are still rising the second and third quarters could be rising when most penciled in a fall.
Existing revenues and cash should support at these levels and positive news should start to be added into the share price..
I think others on the sector will struggle in the DHSC new environment. Like being first with the virus test we will be the first to move away from the constraints of this government.
I would imagine the ceo is seething at his companies treatment.
SC also in the last few days I have learnt the human side of many genuine investors here that like me have taken a hit in a terrible period of our lives that affect us all in some way. Some more than others, I will be honest I’ve gone through some very dark periods before the pandemic hit us!! The worst is watching a stage four cancer suffer that you care for, just one of many things before this pandemic hit us!! Fortunately I try to find positives in the darkest of hours. The person I cared for recovered and this will recover because like the person I mention, this is a strong stock. If us investors can help in some way to get this pandemic eradicated or under a state of control with very few dying then I’m glad I came here as well as ODX and RMS. if we can all walk away with nothing more than a healthy life to live at the end of the pandemic, that means more than the money!!!
Correction Tazor
SC, I’m totally confusing you I’m thinking! Ok the reference ref my handle having the meaning of a weapon, it’s more my habit of loading up on a share and getting locked in lol. The reference earlier to the razor debacle was a police lady in the news recently confusing her weapons and alas choosing the wrong one!! Terrible mistake!!! I’m locked in here now for a while but I see developments on the horizon despite news or not!! My other reference was email which hm is hotmail lol. Hope work goes ok. Here it’s just a period of waiting patiently, done some time here so what’s another year to us long termers:)
L&L
Sorry about the repetition. When I sent the first post, it wasn't published. I thought it might be about the 'guns and tasers' bit. So, I took that bit out and posted again, only to find that the first post had been accepted.
L&L
I googled your link and it led to a Linked-in account. Is that your account? I didn't see any Yorkshire peaks there so wasn't sure. I don't have a Linked-in account so can't message you there. I don't like social media - this board is as far as I will go. Apparently, you misspelled the name of your favourite place for a walk, so you're now under suspicion. I copied and pasted your spelling when I referred to it so, allegedly we are the same person!
Before you get the proofreader general on your back again, you also misspelled taser! You really should rethink opening a premium account so we can talk to 'ourselves' without offending others. I have to get back to work now but will be back this evening. I hope you don't get trolled too much till then.
L&L
I googled smhargreavesltd@hm.com and it led to a Linked-in account. Is that your account? Didn't see any Yorkshire peaks there so wasn't sure. I'm not on Linked-in so can't message you there. I don't like any form of social media. This board is as far as I will go. Just wanted to say that I was just listening to the news and now understand your comment about women needing "to work out what a gun is and what a tazor is!!!" What a pathetic excuse for killing a young man. You'd think she would know the difference after 28 years on the force!
Apparently you have misspelled the name of your favourite walking place and now under suspicion. I copied and pasted your spelling when I referred to it, so now we're allegedly the same person! Before you get the proofreader general on your back, you also misspelled taser!
I have to get back to work now but you should really rethink opening a premium account. That way we can talk to 'ourselves' without offending anyone!!!
I'll be back this evening. I hope you don't get trolled too much till then.
OMG - 2 Yorkshiremen that can't even spell Penyghent correctly !
SC, Cloth cap pulled up a bit like this, both now being nursed back to full health!! Pennyghent is one of my favourite walks, especially when the sky’s are clear. Look up the other two Yorkshire peaks at smhargreavesltd@hm.com you will find whernside and inglebrough! Not from Oz then, that’s good as don’t want the blood rushing to my head especially after last fridays knock backs of shares and booze!!
Lots to play for still with this stock, not selling up till I see that £54 in my window haha!!
All or most aim SPs are like yo-yos so expect that everywhere!! The thing with aim is you can despair over a stock after a massive drop then four days later it goes back up!! Seen it so many times, watch this space!!!
L&L
I missed the Grand National this year. Where did Cloth Cap end up? Last or in the middle range? It may a be clue to how your prediction will fair. You misunderstood me. I'm not from oz. When I said 'here in the land of oz' I was referring to the Wizard of Oz :)
Well, in that case £5.50 is a possibility seeing as it could happen in the next century. I think it will happen sooner or later but my problem with this sp is its reliability. I wouldn't mind waiting years if the sp didn't keep yoyoing. I bought this share for keeps as one for my retirement fund. But the see-saw action had caused me to spend too much time here while it fell and fell some more. I think we need to get off AIM and wondering whether I should wait till a takeover by a large firm happens and buy their shares. Even if I have to pay more, it would be nice not to have to come back to this board and check 20 x a day (as one shareholder who sold today, put it). Totally agree with you about fundamentals and PR.
I googled Pennyghent during the lull - nice to have a straight-talking Yorkshire man who says it as it is.
Good night L&L - I'm off to the land of oz. Hope to speak to you soon.
SC, you want me to present a prediction on the next RNS? Bearing in mind my grand National bet was on cloth cap!!! Here goes, I think Monday, this week will have been what I’d call a washing and ironing week. Sorting out the dirty laundry then ironing out the differences for resolve. Both parties will want a quick solution so there you go, Monday morning at 07:00!! If I’m wrong I shall just go and get plastered on real ale and malt whisky as I’ve run out of brandy last Friday:) Let’s see if I can work out your email in next message. I think you mentioned in one of your posts your in Oz? Is that right? I’d like to go one day but when I practiced standing on my head I didn’t think I’d get used to the upside down feeling so don’t venture past the equator!!!
So I was wrong by my prediction going back to 5:50? Fortunately I didn’t say when so there!! Ok so it’s Friday! Just don’t feel too downhearted about this outfit, the fundamentals look good to me for the future and expect an acquisition soon!! PR department needs a kick up the jacksy though!!!
L&L,
LOL, how many drinks have you had?! My own alcohol uptake has gone up quite a bit since the last RNS...
You're very welcome. I hope I'm invited to the V&P nuptials after all my mediation efforts last night, but I'm not holding my breath on that.
I was hoping that you'd give a negative forecast on the odds of a positive RNS, seeing as you were wrong last time, but I guess they haven't tied the knot as yet. When they do, I'm buying back the shares I sold on Black Friday.
I don't have a premium account either but thinking of getting one so that I can just DM those who have shown an interest in my posts, few as they might be! It would also be nice to communicate with people of like minds without upsetting others. You never know - there may be people there who know more but don't post here given how informative posts are targeted by trolls and quickly removed.
I won't be re-posting my 8:03 post here again. I hope you don't mind. If you want to read it, you'll have to give me an email address.
It's brave of you to post your penultimate sentence. Let's see if you get as many negative responses as I do :) I bet you won't.
For full disclosure, I'm not a man, regardless of one person in particular refusing to believe it! I don't know why anyone would lie about their gender but then, she made it clear that she didn't believe ANYTHING I say. I guess it was a good way of weaving her/his own narrative about me, and it seems to have worked.
Now that you've been nice to me, I think you're going to get a DM from her/him. Many people have and ended up turning against me. I hope you won't buy the alternative narrative. If you'd seen the 8:03 post, you'd know why this is such a clever ploy.
SC, thank you for the marriage acceptance lol. No I actually mean the apology acceptance, that’s great:).
Yes I believe that a period of reflection has occurred and after some consideration a truce was formed. They will probably agree to disagree but that’s good enough before they tie the knot hehe.
I’ve not really considered a premium account here although I promised myself that once my stocks reached a certain value I could justify paying for L2!!
I am ridiculously amateurish running half blind without L2 but somehow managed to do ok!! I’d do better obviously with L2!! My tea leaves won’t bring me luck for ever. I have a strong feeling there will be resolve soon ref DHSC. Once the government learn ****e tests are not the way forward after so much waste of public money they will be knocking on Graham’s door, especially when it comes to expertise in variant detection. My gut feeling this will be going on sooner rather than later looking at battleground out there.
Yes women carry guns too these days and shoot but they need to work out what a gun is and what a tazor is!!! I’m a bloke after saying all that.
Lockedandloanded,
If I had a very busy life, I wouldn't be sitting here for hours on end, looking for a scrap of good news.
You're forgiven. Thank you for the apology - so refreshing on this board.
I can only imagine how you must feel, not taking advantage of the spikes. I only bought after those and I too regret it, but many of us fell in love with this company and now feel like jilted lovers.
Apologies for assuming you were a man - it's the reference to guns in your name, again assuming that guns are more favoured by men, which is of course biased.
Yes, I did go to bed shortly after your last comment. I hadn't slept a wink the night before.
I have to say your posts today really cheered me up, particularly your remark about the chances of a takeover being:
"I’d say there would be more chance of Vanv and Porky merging for marriage:)"
Hilarious :) But, judging by the comments today, I think they have reached a truce. So, who knows?!! Anything is possible in Nova land. Now, let's see your odds on a positive RNS that doesn't tank the sp. :)
Re. my post of 8:03 yesterday, do you have a premium account so I can DM it? I don't want to upset people here - informative facts are rarely welcomed by the majority here and I could use a day on which I don't get abusive comebacks.
SC, sounds like you have a very busy life!! I took a break from this today and went for a stroll up pennyghent with my dog.
Again appologies for my outburst, it’s very rare, it wasn’t aimed at you personally, sheer frustration with myself more like not selling at £12. I kept the faith too long I’m wondering right now as much as I do love this company. How do you know I’m a man?
Yes please share the 08:03 post if you wish to still.
When I messaged last night I think you had gone to sleepybyes.
Lockedandloaded,
Sorry again for the late reply. I have to work for a living so often have to read posts at night. For a number of weeks I was here all day long and doing my work at night and weekends. This stock can send you mad sometimes. I've stopped doing that now and back to more sane working hours.
Re. your comment:
"I missed your 08:03 post, I didn’t hear the front door:) Please resend if I’m in the good books."
do you mean MY good books regarding your ungentlemanly post? Then sure. As I said, this share in general and some people on this BB, in particular can drive anyone crazy.
Please confirm if you still want to see my posting of 8:03 am yesterday. I never know where people stand with me at any particular time.
Yup you've got it bud!
Update from the HMV (His Masters Voice) crew. We are still buying! We have our instructions and our client wants your R&D people as they are doing a great job.
Message to the seller of the last few days - you do know that you can sell at £5.50 or above? Just checking as you are doing our job for us and giving us cheap stock. Perhaps you might want to stop for a little while and then sell a bit at £5.50 or above?
Now what colour should i choose for my 911 turbo?
We will be quiet for today as the seller is doing the job for us. We will bang in a biggy after close.

I went out in the morning, I needed stock cubes to make soup so was making my way to the shops, then I had a stroke of luck, I saw a bus advertising oxo on the side and stopped the bus. Why these people go around advertising and always out of stock!!!!
SC I’m as bad, sorry for my late reply, just read your post. I’m not one for wild predictions or generally putting SP prices up but I did fall foul of my rule and suggested soon back to around 550. That was just based on the company how the hat fits now without DHSC onboard at present. Fundamentals, cash in bank I was going to say unchanged but cash probably growing as I write!!
I’ve been doing this on and off for twenty years and gone through every scenario apart from a take over. Those are rare on aim anyway.
I’d say there would be more chance of Vanv and Porky merging for marriage:)
Looking forward to some positive news soon although nothing is certain on aim.
Good evening L&L
I'm sorry for the late reply - I was working all day. I was pulling your leg about your post. I knew exactly what you meant. Didn't you see the smiley face? Some people here are so ready to take offence and criticize. I'm not one of them.
I like your analogy with the RNSs especially those produced here, which always leave you more confused and in the dark than before you read them (and that's really saying something)! One minute the RNS is a catastrophe which wipes nearly half the sp, the next it's a work of genius and we have a TO in the bag.
Yeah, I noticed Porky's turn around. Wonders never cease in the world of Nova. Did you see my 8:03 am post? I knew it would have a short shelf-life as my posts are often removed for being 'disruptive'. Here in the land of oz truth and information are disruptive. You need to fall in line or have your posts removed. If you did read my post it would go some way to explaining the 180 degree turnaround. Did you?
