What is the source for 24-Jan please?

[hastings] 11/1/2017 12:51

Interims due on 24th.

[netcurtains] 11/1/2017 12:23

ding dong!

Correct rivaldo, I believe Harwood Capital, Herald and Miton also added in the placing.

[rivaldo] 11/1/2017 11:34

Today's RNS is clear that the Business Growth Fund have bought 12% of SDI, or 10.77m shares.

The Fund will have picked up almost half of the placing shares as they weren't a major shareholder before.

Quite a vote of confidence in this still micro-cap company. And it makes the shareholder list even more blue chip than it already was :o))

basem1 - Form not correctly filled out - Suggest you phone

It's a new holding from the placing.Business Growth Fund from my understanding had been keen to come on board for a while, so I would hope that it will look to add in due course.

18.49 to buy, just done a dummy trade. I'll wait it out, seems like a bit of downward pressure at present.

[pj 1] 11/1/2017 09:33

-7.5%, 19p to buy no excuses now!

[basem1] 11/1/2017 08:17

Good to see the buy price now at 19.8. Still waiting for a lower point if possible though. Nice bit of selling yesterday.

[rivaldo] 10/1/2017 14:00

Good to see the Astles acquisition approved - and the Chairman and CEO buying £32,000 and £10,000 more shares respectively (even if it was at 13p - sob!)

Cheers hastings, exciting news. Worth having here in full methinks:

MHRA registration

Synoptics Limited, an expert in scientific imaging products, is pleased to announce that the ProReveal fluorescence protein detection test system has been registered with the MHRA as a medical device, and now conforms to the latest HTM-01-01 changes introduced in July 2016.

ProReveal was developed in conjunction with Queen Mary University of London with the help of Professor David Perrett, and has been designed as a more effective method of ensuring the cleanliness of reprocessed surgical instruments. The UK Department of Health changed their guidelines (HTM-01-01) which now require a quantitative method of measuring the residual protein present after the washing process. ProReveal is able to detect a single spot of residual protein as low as 50ng and shows where protein is located on the surface of a surgical instrument and how much.

Guy Fiddian, Sales Manager of Synoptics Health says ‘This is a great step forward for the ProReveal system to access all UK SSDs. The high risk, neurosurgical units are required to comply by July 2017, and the rest by July 2018. Now that the ProReveal is compliant, potential customers can be reassured that the ProReveal will fully meet their protein detection requirements.’

Brian Stammers, CEO of Synoptics Limited says ‘We are happy that the ProReveal can assist in making SSD environments HTM-01-01 compliant and help reduce risk and improve patient safety.’"

Good to see ProReveal cleared to proceed.http://www.synopticshealth.com/latest-news/

......finally it's buyable. Good luck all.

[rivaldo] 05/1/2017 12:31

That's extremely encouraging - if sellers can get 21.55p there must be decent demand out there :o))

[basem1] 05/1/2017 12:22

The 12 and 15 are sells above the mid. Online ask price has come down because of them. Might get my 19/20p yet

[rivaldo] 05/1/2017 12:04

Seven buys in seven minutes at 22p from 10.35am today - six 3k's and one 5k, quickly followed by 12k and 15k buys. Unusually busy times here.

[rivaldo] 04/1/2017 22:59

A late reported trade of 65,000 at 20.25p which I presume is a Buy from earlier today, alongside the 71k at 21.02p.

Agreed PJ1. A penny or two won't make any difference in the long run. SDI have ambitions for more acquisitions and to grow the company much bigger. Assuming core trading remains positive and management sure-footed, then from such a small base - and with such an incredible and supportive blue chip shareholder list - there's a real chance of this being a multibagger imho.

[pj 1] 04/1/2017 18:05

You're sounding more like a short term trader than an investor. There is imo more than 100% + to play for here medium term so a penny here or there is irrelevant in the bigger picture.

Buy the Company not the share price if you are an investor

[basem1] 04/1/2017 15:55

I only came across it after Xmas lol. Waiting for some sellers now, I'm not chasing it.

[noble3r] 04/1/2017 15:44

basem;

Would love some of these but now asking 33p online.

Should have taken what seemed like the expensive 23p 6 months ago.

[basem1] 04/1/2017 15:34

Would love some of these but now asking 23p online. Should have taken what seemed like the expensive 21p yesterday.

[rivaldo] 04/1/2017 15:33

Nice - a 71k buy at 21.02p....

Thx for that hastings. Given SDI's tiny m/cap ProReveal is essentially in the price for free.
