LDX formed a strategic partnership with Chembio Diagnostics Inc. in March 2020.

As recently as 11 days ago (on 15 Oct), Chembio submitted to the FDA its 20-minutes COVID test under the 'fast-track' Emergency Use regulations.

Not sure where it puts this test in relation to phase 3 trials, but presumably Boots know what they're offering? Hmmm...

One of the great TV presenters for PIs, albeit mainly in the US markets.
You can see him on CNBC (channel 505) @ 2pm most weekdays. He also runs a blog. Here is a link to his recent blog on the exciting future of hydrogen. Pity he hasn't (yet) heard of CWR....

visitor & tom - I stand corrected.
TSG went XD at the opening of business on 8 October. ..
oops! & apologies...
Dividend will be paid to shareholders who are on the register at close of business on 9th October. So, SP goes ex.div @ 8am Monday, 12 October. Sorry about that!
From RNS re. Interim Results...
"An interim dividend of 8.0 US cents per ordinary share was declared by the Board of directors on 29 September 2020. It is payable on 6 November 2020 to shareholders who are on the register at 9 October 2020. This interim dividend, amounting to $7 million, has not been recognised as a liability in this interim financial information. It will be recognised in shareholders' equity in the year to 31 December 2020."

Disappointing to see recent posters using this BB to punt other shares!!!
IMOH of course.

Will SYM miss this obvious opportunity in Canada?
GLA
Knowing he was going to have an audience of 850+, I think a rehearsal of his script may have made it a bit more professional. Having said that, we here for the great opportunities coming up. Well done ODX

A clear infrastructure policy is more vital than ever.

Hopefully, CWR are already in discussions with UK Government and / or with Sir John Armitt (head of the National Infrastructure Commission).

617p to buy....
pds - interesting that you mention Byotrol (where I am also an LTH).
They have just made a presentation to investors and have disclosed working on a new range of products involving seaweed - cf. SYM's Eranova tie-up??
Sounds like seaweed is possibly the new anti-microbial material ...
DYA
pl - a good find!.
It would be helpful (and reassuring to SYM shareholders) if SYM were to respond to the Guardian article.
Silence in this case would possibly be counterproductive for the SP.

I'm a LTH here.
Last week I listened to an early morning business programme on Radio 5 Live. It included several small business owners, one of whom ran a company called Admaster. It produces anti-bacterial products using silver as its base material:

I have to admit that until that broadcast, I knew nothing about silver having anti-microbial properties - you learn something new everyday.

From today’s Daily Telegraph:
ASDA is restoring shop floor marshals and applying a Covid-proof coating on trolleys to fight a second virus wave.
The UK’s third largest supermarket will put 1,000 staff outside stores and in the aisles of larger outlets to reiterate the need to wear a face covering and maintain social distancing.
It is also applying a protective coating to all baskets and trolley handles in a bid to help prevent the spread of the virus.
The shield was used at the NHS Nightingale hospital at the Excel centre in east London earlier this year built at the peak of the crisis. Asda staff will have to wear a face mask, which was not previously mandatory. Customers who do not have one can buy a disposable mask as they enter the store.
Anthony Hemmerdinger, Asda’s operating chief, said: “We know safety remains a key priority for our customers and we will continue to do all we can to keep them and our colleagues safe in store, as we have since the start of the pandemic.”

Seems like therapeutic treatments will still be required for the short-term future and if Biden wins, for even longer...
GLA
You're so right JH.
Always jam tomorrow with this crowd, but when news happens (and there appears to be plenty in the pipeline), the SP tends to move exponentially.
Let's hope better days are imminent...
I have to admit that I was really impressed with this presentation. I found out many things I did not know before.
In essence, SYM is a R&D company and it will reap its rewards in the fullness of time. Anyone trying to trade this share does it at their risk.
Patience is a virtue here - there is no point in screaming out for regular RNSs, when the time frame for product development is measured in months, or even years. Definitely not every other week....
GLA
Batterseafish - hope you're right. GLA
