Yes, impressive results in the presentation. As the wider science based companies see what OPTI has, it is no wonder SOH has been so busy. Being on a number of different tablets already means I am reluctant to add more. However, a simple additive to food or similar supplement I would be very willing to consume.

Another great presentation by SOH. Said he had a dozen people from a large range of companies waiting to speak to him afterwards who were "interested in distributing and marketing our products".Most of the reduction in total and bad cholesterol was within 6 weeks - so pretty fast results!

Highly likely imo neft

Thanks someuwin for posting the presentation link. He says and i can quite understand that it is a very costly business to involve actual human studies, a number of 49 taking part was mentioned. Partners to sponsor further human study testing. The results in lowering BAD cholesterol and blood pressure and increasing GOOD cholesterol are impressive. I just wonder if good old P & G have been funding their own human study testing all these months.

SOH does a great job of explaining the presentation slides there.

Has been submitted to the British Journal of Nutrition for peer review.

All set for spring launch of cardiovascular products.

But clearly talk of next generation pipeline suggests much more to come further down the line.

Not much mileage there Somuwin, would you say? Nor in the bullish PSL write-up/tip. Bring on something meaty?

PRESENTATION: Opibiotix Health Plc at ProBiota, Berlin Feb 2017

OptiBiotix Health plc (LON:OPTI), a life sciences business developing compounds to tackle obesity, high cholesterol, diabetes and skin care, announced in January that it has had two abstracts accepted for presentation at ProBiota 2017 in Berlin from 1-3 February 2017. ProBiota is the leading annual event for the global prebiotic, probiotic and the microbiota focused food and pharma industries. The conference is world renowned as a key meeting place for a community of scientists and business leaders who want to translate science into new products in the growing supplements and ingredients market.

CEO Stephen O’Hara talks through the presentation on LP-LDL®: Cholesterol & hypertension reduction – Next generation pre, pro, and synbiotics that he gave at a conference in Berlin on the 3rd Feb 2017 attended by over 250 scientists from around the world...

Nef just SOHs brother,are you sure you own shares :)) ? or are you one of these posters who "keeps his feet on the ground" yawn yawn.

[onedayrodders] 09/2/2017 11:25

Lets hope P&G give approval for it to be announced in an RNS and not an interview.

I guess probably not

[neftanikoff] 09/2/2017 11:23

re 19754omg, jeeeezzzz, scotty you are not bringing up TW yet again, don't forget he is the creator of the soh's brother's/son/auntie/uncle/grannies got shares in opti along with for the 100th time, get in before 80, it's going 100 plus, first said about a year ago, yawn, yawn.

[elrico] 09/2/2017 11:21

Good observation - Someuwin. I don't think many doubted the veracity just the "imminent" delivery of the P&G news, which by all accounts is 12 months late, 16 months by Easter. I would have expected AR had a better understanding how these type of deals with MN playout before he gave TW the wink.

[kipper1960] 09/2/2017 11:17

someuwin - i was thinking the same thing. I believe is was TW who confidently said the Asian MN was TATA and its proved correct. Whether this was orchestrated by Opti I don't know; however, for those that say TW talks boll*x, he was 100% this time. So, if it was also TW who started the P&G rumour, it has considerable credence.

Still can't get my head around TATA news not being RNSed. With the news being dripped out via a minor news blog there has been zero impact on share price I would have thought that an agreement with a big MN such as Tata was market sensitive and so there was an obligation to RNS - but WTFDIK.

[someuwin] 09/2/2017 10:34

Now that the TATA 'rumour' has been confirmed as true, it give more credence to the other 'rumour' that Procter & Gamble is the first multinational. After all they both came from the same source.

[elrico] 09/2/2017 10:26

Just means it was poorly packed - if it reduces cholesterol who gives a fig.

[portrush] 09/2/2017 10:26

Nef, you seem to be eyeing other shares recent rises jealously. Do you not think they did the same a year or so ago when Opti went from 10p to £1? OXP crashed from 13p so it's only in early recovery mode. Do you really think it's a better bet than Opti as I don't. You do sound like someone who only bought in here around current levels for a quick buck ..if not, why so anxious to see immediate gains. I watched Opti for over a year before I felt comfortable enough in its progress to take my position a few months ago at 65p.

[michaelmouse] 09/2/2017 10:24

That cash position has been bugging me a little, but of course a large part of the answer lies here.



"Under the terms of the agreement, OptiBiotix has increased its investment into SkinBiotix, using a Convertible Loan Agreement, with an investment of £400k which will provide funding to complete the development and human studies for the first product application, in addition to funding activities to support an Initial Public Offering ("IPO").  The loan will convert should SkinBiotix successfully complete and IPO."

That's it. They've used toxic debt as possible funding for a possible IPO of SkinBiotix (although that's all gone very quiet I note). In other words the £400,000 investment will be debt on the balance sheet rather than a cash deduction, at this juncture anyway.

It raises the following though. If the IPO doesn't go ahead then that £400,000 will come directly from cash resources. So £2.8m cash left which is getting close to my estimate. If the IPO does go ahead then what's the coupon on the debt? Normally quite high, and what will the conversion price be? Normally a hefty discount to the prevailing share price As ever there is very little detail about the terms.

In summary, they owe £400,000 in debt.

Looking forward to the results.

Does the bouncing pill gives the same effect as uppers and downers?

[dogwalker] 09/2/2017 10:19

Being overweight is one thing Parob. Losing your 'skin division' is another.
We do need SOH to keep his head down in the lab still.
Happy holding , all.

[elrico] 09/2/2017 10:10

ODR - I suspect the bouncing pill will be with us much sooner.

[parob] 09/2/2017 10:03

Anyone who is overweight in OPTI will automatically have a more balanced portfolio once the skin division demerges.

[onedayrodders] 09/2/2017 09:53

elrico ... just seen your 3iii post

Let's hope it doesn't take long than this ....




ODR

;o)

[neftanikoff] 09/2/2017 09:49

you are right someuwin, too heavily invested here, but wrong in panicking, i'd say more frustrated. Because i am expecting something soon to lift the sp, but then i have been expecting it for a long time, e.g., the announcement of P & G tie up yonks ago, was meant to have had a good impact. What happened to the DD that should have ended months ago?

Someuwin, i am sure you have a well rounded portfolio, which is a good thing, as your name seems to pop up throughout ADVFN. On most shares i look at, there is posting from you. But, i would imagine that there are quite a few on here who are similar to me with their cash mostly tied up in 1 or 2 shares. If you can believe SM (and with respect, i personally trust no one a BB ), then he is way over exposed to this share.
