Chris Heminway, Exec-Chair at Time To ACT, explains why now is the right time for the Group to IPO. Watch the video here.
I agree they should come out with something, if not something RNS-able then just a press release about positive developments; and as the sp is now about half what they paid at the recent placing, significant director buys would signal that this is now at silly levels.
All this current stuff, and indeed 2019, doesn't matter if you're an investor. Sure, if you're one of the trader fraternity you may be happy to take 20% or whatever on a small holding. But investors know that patience will give them a 7 bagger from here and just get on with their life.
He will have to pay more than he could currently get, so that's a positive and this will be based on the sp being much higher than the exercise price at the time. Hopefully indicates confidence in forthcoming sales.
So Smithy tries a different tack and people think he's no longer what he has proven himself to be over and over for so long now. Extraordinary. Surely by now people realise that the words mean nothing; he will say whatever is needed to achieve his agenda and currently he happens to be trying to build credibility and trust for this stage. "good people, little people" - embarrassing, you mean the good people he was encouraging to sell when he wanted to buy or buy when he wanted to sell? "we have all lost money" - really? so why was he boasting elsewhere about making £50,000 for one phase? Believe that he has totally changed from a self-centred manipulator of sentiment with absolutely no regard for the impact on investors and their families if you like but I know what he is and hopefully o do too.thers
True Ambers but people will take more heed of a magazine article than a full page ad. They have a very compelling story and need to get it out there, even if they have to get some low cost advertorials initially. But once out there it could spread very rapidly imo - all forms of media love a good news, human interest story and, yes, some major players could then take notice.
Very interesting that MW in his recent youtube interview states that the emerging 'service side' opportunities could be significantly more profitable than that for the product itself and that's despite its premium pricing. So, what is that service side? We know that they are providing support when needed by early adopters. So perhaps they've seen the opportunities for the extension and development of that (alone or in partnership I wonder).
In a previous thread and in response to a question about potential take-overs, I suggested that it might not be a company solely focused on fertility related products but might be a private healthcare company interested in 'remote' assessment and diagnostics alongside their high cost, limited throughput hospitals. Now if Concepta go down the service route then not only will they be seen as competition but the opportunities for the private healthcare for using this model will become all the more obvious. Could get interesting.
…. did the price increase? Of course not! Some small sells can drop it by 14% but large buys have no effect. I know there's lots of exaggeration about MM manipulation but still this is pretty extreme - the company should be checking what's going on.
Now back up a tad but yes a ridiculous drop on just a few small and indeed some tiny trades. And yet last week someone bought over a million in two trades in quick succession and the sp didn't go up by even 1%. Well, I bought more. Some major investors have just paid a much higher price in the placing and they'll want to see this not only recover quickly to that price but to move on from there and start getting a decent return over the coming year imo.
It has indeed been a frustrating journey for many of us but the past frustrations come under the category of 'sunk cost'. As an investment what matters now is what happens next and what's different now. We now have new strong leadership to direct the commercialisation process, we have replaced the previous incompetent PR agency and above all we have a proven and accredited product which is getting rave reviews from the people that matter, its users, and importantly reviews and testimonials that stress that this different and better than the competition. With this age group and demographic they will be looking to the internet and social media in particular for information and peer support. That is the way the company can spend its money wisely and well targeted and already it's featured on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and various blogs. The striking quality of the product plus good leadership for its commercialisation are what makes me hopeful for its future - a little more patience and fingers crossed.
James, Roger - click on "Nozick" to see his series of posts which are clearly mocking shith76 for some time now; we all find 76's attempts to influence investors as pretty disgraceful but Nozick responds with humour (and a persona) that highlights just how puerile and ridiculous his posts really are. ;-)
People looking for any category of product will use the search facility as only a few high volume products/categorises are initially highlighted on the site. Those interested in fertility I would imagine would type 'fertility'; this provides a list of 28 products and MyLotus is immediately seen as it is the second item on the first row of the list. As you will have read in the RNS, and as said before, they will use social media and search engine advertising which will be relatively low cost but very effective for the target group.
