If what he says is real, then this is actually a really solid hold for the future and to buy in some more now. This rocketed from 80 pence to 140 pence on BC partnership. Their strategy shifted to high value clients and so will take time ... If just one of these contracts are confirmed with revenue / sales, this will move fast but there is always risk vrs return.
David Budd, CEO of genedrive plc, commented:
During 2020 the Companyβs development focus moved to the global COVID PCR testing opportunity. While commercial progress has been slowed by registration requirements, the Company made great strides in the development of our COVID test portfolio, POC test platform development, scalable manufacturing capability, and a commercial distribution arrangement with Beckman Coulter that has the potential to be significant and lang-term. Much of our focus has shifted away from low and middle income markets to more western markets with DoD, AIHL, and COVID, driven by the market dynamics and restrictions of travel. These markets however work under standard commercial terms and cycles, and offer more predictable, and often higher margin commercial opportunities, and we anticipate this focus will remain for the foreseeable future.β
