At the point of going to press, Collagen Solutions had 171,403,815 Ordinary shares of 1p nominal value in issue. The Board of Directors holds 16.3% with a further 6% held by senior managers/former owners of acquired businesses.

research report out: "Collagen Solutions is a biomaterials company developing and manufacturing medical grade collagen components for use in medical devices, in vitro diagnostics, and regenerative medicine. New leadership has formed a global commercialisation team and introduced a number of initiatives to build on the strong base business clearly visible in the 2016 results, and execute on a scalable growth strategy. COS is also establishing a pipeline of finished devices, such as ChondroMimetic, to add incremental value to the business. These initiatives are enhancing significantly the value of the company which is not being reflected in the current share price." and "Valuation: Our DCF valuation has risen 16% to £54m or 32p per share on the back of these improved results. There are few quoted competitors that could be considered as comparator companies for valuation purposes. The closest, Innocoll, is developing proprietary products and commands an EV of £140m.

expansion now... slow and steady share nice to hold :)

nice update here.

results so good they had to post them twice! :D

Yes... this can happen. And what is being talked about are the likes of intel etc not wanting to miss out and starting a bidding war... so its only the beginning here imo. Could be a fun week for all those in. Of course it will open @ around the bid price so no chance of "cheap" entry... :(

high risk I guess: ""The regulatory landscape since we started the business has changed dramatically which has necessitated the strategic review and we are now proceeding with discussions with a range of parties which will require a significant restructuring of the Group's business and scale of underwriting operations in order to provide a solution to ensure compliance with Solvency II across all lines of business." "

"continued good cash generation, current cash and investment balances of £74.5m as at 30 June 2016" £4m mcap? Yes I guess its the debt... but still...

Just came to post. Nice... should recover now imo... start of newsflow? Tempting... see how it opens.

there is your answer... nice .

lol - ok just seen Im talkin pants... news was out already... been out of it for 2 days!

I get the feeling that the B one will end in tears... why say "news is definately coming out today..." when it is good news? Hmmm... suspicious. Just the cynic in me. Trade but be out before news just in case. GL.

It only briefly touched 14 and that was due to brexit ;)

rumours flying around on the one we like a lot at the moment (axm).

They have patents for new battery tech - based in our home town I believe... ;)
