Wow...7days into spring and already worrying/planning for the winter.
Could be Winterplex is going to be a BIG seller here and around the world.
I think prevention will be the key once we gain some degree of control. Accurate tests will be crucial, especially in hospitals and care homes. The government will be throwing massive resources at avoiding ANY more lockdowns.

Hey Wilson, I had my Oxford jab around ten days ago. I actually had quite a lot of mild side effects. Took me around 6 days to get over it. Couldn't sleep, fatigue, joint ache, muscle ache, fever, chills, headache, upset stomach, nausea. Think I had everything on the list !!. Feeling fine now.

Novacyt "...The demand for testing, and antibody tests, will continue to increase once vaccines have been introduced on a large scale...."

So why were they so coy about forward guidance on revenue for 2021(which trashed the SP)

Hey Van, yes Blackrock could be loading up for another reason...still bodes VERY well though.
HOLD

Blackrock can clearly see long term value in NCYT.
That is why they are loading up at these levels.

Wow..got to be PCR tests then.. AND how many tests can identify variants. NCYT have one !!!

I suspect that LFT's for schools will last about a month or so before being abandoned.

They are going to be VERY expensive(to test every school child on a regular basis), probably unreliable. AND probably detect minute amounts of infection.
We are currently seeing the end to this second wave.(in the UK). As soon as parents gain confidence that their children are pretty safe they will stop using them.
PCR for variants is the Key to control the virus.

It is great, and very impressive how NCYT seem to be ahead of everyone in the game.
Variants are going to be very troublesome....NCYT have a solution already available on the market.
They seem to be on step ahead of most other players.

This is going to get VERY interesting when GM announces the post COVID plan in due course.
Most businesses lack the financial resources to fully achieve their ambitions. BUT of course we are now cash rich.

Don't think the French would allow a takeover.

I do wonder though how it works being joint owned. Are we 70% French and 30% British? Does that mean the French have
final say in all things?

I gave up on ADVFN a long time ago. It's like the wild west over there, AND the moderators don't seem to care a less.
as long as they get volume punters they are happy.

I once complained about some outrageous language and abuse posters were using between themselves and the moderators said they would only act if it was personally against me.(that was my complaint concerning)

Maybe some people like that kind of thing ...Beats me!

Gone up to 150 countries worldwide. I thought was 130

It's funny that the job adverts sound much more inspiring than official announcements by NCYT.
Maybe the guy writing the jobs specs. should get involved in PR !!

The jobs ads. tend to mention, exciting/ growth/NHS/worldwide.

Phase 1 of the DHSC contract should be starting to wind down now so in theory no need for NEW staff. What does than mean then? Join the dots!
Also in the last R&D report we hear "..This TVG accreditation supports the use of the q16/q32 and PROmate™ system in a near patient setting, and its current deployment across the NHS and to international markets...."

Well Promate hasn't been around that long. It's only just at the beginning of rollout.

I think the DHSC contract got temporarily slowed down or paused because whilst they were very keen on the near patient highly accurate PCR using the Q machines they wanted the workflow to be quicker and easier to use . Promate solved all the issues. I believe now it is green for GO again.
Is that Phase 1 extended, is it phase 2 confirmed. Is it something entirely different. Who knows. It may end up none of those. We may find out in due course.

BUT what seems obvious is that we are going to be doing a lot of business with the DHSC. AND worldwide.

I think we are going to need patience until we get full and fair value.(Unless we get a mega deal announcement in the meant time).

I think the full results for last financial year should appear mid May as they did last year. We know roughly what they will be , BUT, i think we may have some extra value as I am expecting a very large inventory of stock on the shelves.

Hopefully, just prior to that we will get a trading update for Q1 this year. I am confident we have hit the ground running in the middle of a global pandemic this year. I fully expect Q1 to be the BEST yet for revenue(huge demand for product, with NCYT's optimum ability to fulfil orders)

GM bought £500,000 worth at £8.17 on 12 Nov.

So he is around £90,000 down on that. I think he will be fairly well motivated to turn this around.

I am inclined to agree the French listing hasn't really does us any favours. I suspect the french government hate the idea of buying anything from the UK post Brexit.

I'd love us to de-list from the french market. Buy a small US test manufacturing business that we can feed our products through and re-list on the NYSE or NAZDAQ

I should think NCYT will have another £100m in the bank before they get a test to market

Has anyone noticed as I have, it seems like when the SP is booming at highs and everyone is buoyant, and everyone is
predicting the SP with will be £20+ it shortly after starts a sharp decline.

Conversely when the SP is languishing, people are nursing losses, others are predicting doom and gloom, shortly after the SP rockets.

It's happened several times. !!!

What will happen next?

IF the government policy is to go for sovereign LFT's OVER those from other countries, surely the same applies to
PCR. IF NCYT supplies ALL the UK's requirement for PCR we would be a full capacity JUST supplying UK.

I think this year and beyond is looking good...Patience.

I think if a stock is fairly liquid the the spreadbet/cfd positions generally cancel each other out. You are betting against an equal and opposite position held by someone else.

The problem arise in illiquid stocks or those very volatile in one direction or another. Companies like IG in that instance have to hedge the risk using futures of the underlying stock. That I think WILL affect the share price if it is heavily in one direction.

Is it not the case that ALL Surge testing is using PCR?
