FT site shows it up 97.97% just before close.it does also state that it is up 218.33% from its 52 week low on the 11th december 2018 no explanation

i should have said that 80% was according to google so no idea how reliable

it is showing as up just over 80% as of about 15 mins ago.dont quote me on this just what I've found but no explanation inseams to have been going up throughout the day

rebarm completely agree.

modest buy at full ask a few minutes ago.last two buys have been at their respective full asks so may just indicate positive trend for remainder of today.

so far today 23 trades,all very small or at most modest.approx £24000 in aggregate value so very minor.some holders may have been prompted to sell by being reminded that the nomad is being replaced but i personally regard the update today as positive and desirable in keeping market informed.todays fall imo much more down to the spooked markets etc referred to by applegarth and usual aim drift on lack of news.when e get the positive news expected early nest year any negativity will i am sure be speedily reversed

yes rather left myself open for that one! just one comment on matts post in that the differing regulatory regimes in the various countries re advertising and promotion will doubtless require tailor made solutions for each different regime so the more experience recordati can get the better even if as i accept is probably the case they are somewhat behind the curve.completely agree with his comments re uk launch.very good news imo

a few modest buys coming in at this level

very interesting bignose thank you.i wasn't aware that the greece romania etc launches had been deferred to seek to benefit from the uk and other countries marketing experience but that does make sense and i certainly agree that the uk market is more mature in terms of awareness.it will be interesting to see how sales develop here in uk after proper exposure.

less than £8000 worth of shares traded.

always the same isn't it when sentiment and markets turn.poor liquidity flakey "fundamentals" etc. lest i come across as suggesting an air of investor superiority i confess to having two aim holdings both significantly down on cost price (one is a small pharma) but i am mostly in cash at moment as many markets still feel overvalued to me at current levels (cue massive upsurge!)

yes agree that reluctance to seek treatment etc was always going to be potentially the biggest obstacle to success and i suspect that many of us took view that the size of the potential market was sufficiently great worldwide to offset this obstacle and i still hold to this view.from my admittedly very superficial appraisal of the uk online system i felt it was a little daunting but not dramatically so and i think there were one or two posters here who in the interests of research were able to operate it without too much difficulty and as MR reminds us the price point has been reduced to what i feel is a much more acceptable level.i also have to agree that i don't actually expect sales to the next reporting date to be very impressive there simply hasn't been the publicity etc and indeed the time in a sense for that to happen but overall i feel we are in a sort of incremental process where each bit of news whether it is launches licences or even modest sales will help to build to a much improved s/p could be wrong of course but certainly feeling much more positive personally than 4/5 months ago. still think china is a biggie which will be realised by investors eventually when as you say market awareness generally improves.aimo

level 2 looking a little more positive now

good afternoon bignose.i cannot disagree with anything you say if uk is not launched in jan then it will be very disappointing but we will just have to wait and see.i hadn't done the maths on the remaining E11 countries although realised it must be a very significant figure in aggregate.this is why i expressed the hope that the chinese news might serve as stimulus to recordatis enthusiasm although if i am frank i think it will only really be solid sales in launch countries which will be the driver for efforts in the other E11 countries and we don't have any real idea of these and it is still early days i suppose.lack of trust as you say is certainly a problem here but i think and hope that it would be forgiven very quickly if there were news of very good sales.i am not holding my breath but i do feel the overall picture is looking a little more solid than a few months ago.news on hk and macau should be a positive driver also for the s/p

yes montezumarevenge i was encouraged by the precise time scale given for UKlet us hope it is adhered to.also hoping for news re hong kong and mac which i am hoping will be avery positive sentiment driver.i am a little disappointed with the reaction so far re chinese licence but i suppose it is in part reflective of the quite lengthy time scale involved.if we get positive news re actual sales in due course then the potential value of the chinese deal my be seen more favourably.no guarantees of course but bearing in mind current m/c i still only £67m i feel there must be scope for significant upside.

well i did post some time ago about the irony of being saved by the Boot!i suspect china hong kong and macau are probably going to prove of slightly greater significance but it is interesting to read that life still goes on.
on the uk front i understand the scepticism that it may be delayed but i am hopeful that it will materialise as stated by recordati and that it will provide a morale boost for the board and of greater significance an increased awareness profile and even in time a significant revenue contribution

good afternoon Bignose.yes looks like you were spot on about further EU launches.we will just have to wait and see what happens with uk but even if its not a major target area it would be good for board morale here to see it relaunched here.havent had a chance to check out what was said re ROW launches but i think you are right. may try and look back over announcements later today if i get the chance

will be very interesting to see what reply you get from jamie

i agree with peter munroe.i do not think they need to RNS the drawdown as such so it would seem to indicate some positive development

had reply from Marianne Tatschke at recordati investor relations. produced verbatim as follows:

"Fortacin has been launched in Italy,Germany ,Spain ,France and Portugal.To be launched in UK in January 2019 and after that in Greece Romania,Czech rep,Slovakia and Poland.Dates not available.
yours"

at least its positive info re uk.not sure about the rest of it.
