A question, If when a director buys and the share price falls, is that confidence building or is the market trying to to tell you something?

Can you expect more fund raising and will it be closed also this time again and perhaps at 8p?

"What about the poor sads in at 2 pounds, many are dying off in the meantime"

Thank you for your kind concern Mr Waxman.Whilst some 7 years have passed since my ill-fated purchase of MLR at some 190p ,i can assure you that i remain in rude health and reckon there's a good few more "average downs" in me before i meet my maker.

This company has moved on apace over the last few years and albeit the share price has moved doggedly in a downward direction,i feel sure that one day-maybe not in my lifetime admittedly-we will all have reason to cheer.

May i thank you for concerns over my mortality.If i do pop my clogs pre the 2 quid level,i'll make sure you get an invite to my wake.

lololololol your probably right but they failed yesterday and will continue to do until I get my price for the last tranche then I am out.

Very disappointing performance from the board considering the history of this company and the great Accorus give away at 10p

[shuisky] 24/1/2008 16:53

Nope, the MM's are determined to get these off you on the cheap. Once you've sold yours, I reckon we can start to move up.

Most things are up and bouncing this dog is dead in the water the only red in my portfolio even my only other dog LNX has some life.

[waxman3] 24/1/2008 10:53

no still got 550000 of them, got bid 11.75 yesterday for 500000.

Thats the value!

I don't call a dog a dog for nowt.

Makes me think we are all holding rotten meat here.

[gogoneko] 24/1/2008 10:32

For someone who's claimed to have dumped 700,000 shares in the past few months don't you find it ironic (which is putting it nicely) to be bemoaning a falling share price? You're the one feeding your dog rotten meat!

[waxman3] 24/1/2008 10:03

See the dog is whimpering again today---disgusting no updates

[waxman3] 23/1/2008 15:28

And they are too as the bounce has shown, but there is no need for this dog to have fallen further.

But then with no upbeat updates what can we expect

[waxman3] 21/1/2008 13:34

lololol no dont panic the world´s markets are basically strong

[rcktmn] 21/1/2008 12:25

[rcktmn] 21/1/2008 12:24

Grim isn't it ?

[rcktmn] 21/1/2008 12:23

Grim isn't it ?

[waxman3] 21/1/2008 11:44

WITH ALL YOU SAY ITS GOT GOING FOR IT AND I CONCUR---IT MUST BE THE MOST UNLOVED SHARE ON THE BLOCK.

If I was so heavily invested owning 1% of a PLC (moreover 3+% if you bought at 7p) I'd primarily be writing to the board for explanations so it'd be interesting to hear how they've responded to your complaints. I don't see how anybody however, could consider the following to have failed investors:

Nov 6th: Strong interims, CEO buys.
Oct 31st: Extension of Bard agreement for Optiflo.
Oct 29th: Aloxi deal.
Sep 5th: Encouraging trading statement at AGM.
Jun 5th: Encouraging prelims.
Apr 5th: Trading update and Acquisition.

Weekly updates and news is the realm of FTSE 100 companys, not smallcaps.

It's not to say I don't share grievance over elements of the placing, but despite this I feel it has benefitted the company considerably except sadly not in the current share price.

[shuisky] 20/1/2008 10:46

waxman3, I appreciate that investing can be frustrating sometimes, but you can't expect managements to conjure up positive statements simply to support the SP!

Actually, newsflow has been very good recently. It's not the co's faukt if the mkt hasn't picked up on it. FWIW, I think the share price has done pretty well since Tim Wright took over, so I don't know why you are negative on the current management.

As for Liontrust, they have every right to sell at 14p or 13p etc. Thus represents a 30-40% gain on the 10p they might have paid. However, this doesn't mean that the share price isn't good value at this price. Furthermore, if they had stumped up the 10p than the Acorus acquisition might not have taken place. I view this as a buying opportunity.

What about the poor sads in at 2 pounds, many are dying off in the meantime. The poor performance previously was don't to a poor quality of board members, surely a few upbeat trading statements would not go a miss. Of the directors are happy most have 25 years before their pensions.

[gogoneko] 19/1/2008 11:42

I reckon any board or PR company would be wasting their time/money trying to push up the share price with no-news or bluster if there's a very big seller in the market. For the share price to move I reckon the solution is for the board to find a home for the shares which Liontrust don't want.

If they're not doing this it'd imply that they're happy with the share price at today's levels, if they are doing this then it's a poor reflection on the company and board that there's no confidence in their ability (as the placing was oversubsribed at just 10p) and things have gone very well since then - performance that their predecesors never delivered.

[waxman3] 19/1/2008 09:30

Face it guys it unloved- The atrocious conduct of the old board o directors which saw the share price fall from 2 pound, the lack of positive upbeat news etc.

But the board will not practice good PR consequently all the while I have been saying this the share price languishes. If I were a CEO and brokers and analyst were telling me that my SO should be around 25p, I would blo$dy well make sure that it was.

Its more that just products and profits.

I WONDER WHAT MLR'S CUSTOMERS THINK AS THE share price IS A REFLECTION UPON HOW THE COMPANY STANDS.

[gogoneko] 19/1/2008 01:46

I don't feel that there's anything the management can be expected to do except continue the good work, particularly regarding newsflow. A look though last years news shows one good release after another on a reasonably regular basis (bar the placing value). During the course of this year a number of products are expected to come to market to boost the revenue further and hopefully micelle will progress well, all in due course.

The frustration is that for all their good work though they could announce on Monday that profits are significantly ahead of expectations but I'm quite sure that within three weeks the share price will be settling at 14p again as Liontrust offload another 750,000 or so shares.

[shuisky] 18/1/2008 22:56

I'm a bit amused by all the negativity around here. The co is now profitable, has been fundamentally restructured, an acquisition successfully completed,strong cash flow, new distribution and licensing deals signed, products in late stage development, a new product being launched in April, and very strng increases in revenue announced.

What more do you want the management to do?
