Wondering whether GAW will do a trading updating tomorrow or the next few days similar to the last two years - we know they are ahead but let's see

ODX : OMEGA DIAGNOSTICS.

Announced yesterday they have obtained the CE approval to sell the long awaited and anticipated AIDs testing kit.
This breakthrough announcement came 2 days before World Aids Day.
"Transformational news".



The stock is so lightly held it will potentially rocket exactly the same way PYC has.

On top of this great news from ODX we also still have news on their Malaria tests.

Results are due in 2 weeks time and its expected and anticipated they will surpass last eyars which showed gains in revenues and sales.

finapp have re-iterated their buy stance and target of 30p (Which is extremely cheap)

Once these Aid tests start rolling off its a change of fortune for ODX.

Research analysts at finnCap have GBX 30.00 PT on Omega Diagnostics Group PLC (LON:ODX). finnCap’s PT means a potential upside of 42.86% from the company’s last close price. The rating was revealed in an analyst report on Wednesday, 29 November.

ps
Agree about their content generally - just disappointed in that one.

Seen that one, homebrewruss - it's the standard, official view.

Phil Oakley's step by step guide

New piworld video with Leon Boros on Understanding accounts.
Not watched it yet but Piworld have been adding some great content lately:

Big the consideration will be funded from the cash generated by the purchased assets during the period from January 2018 to summer 2018 when the deal completes.

[apad] 30/11/2017 11:29

Any views on whether it is sensible to remove amortisation from the cash flow statement altogether?

It seems to me that there are too many opportunities for sleight of hand by amortizing stuff that has no real value that it might be easier to remove it anyway.

Perhaps the same with depreciation - again too subjective.

On a KISS basis I think I need my own numbers that don't require deep delving into accounts.

Yes well done Hydrus, I don't have time to understand the deal, why are BP selling for no consideration?

[apad] 30/11/2017 09:40

Big Mincon director sale. Good company. Used to own them but got fed up with divis in euros.

Attrader - Kevin Loosemore at Micro Focus. Chairman since pre-IPO when it was just COBOL programming tools for mainframes. Intermittently Exec Chairman. 10 YR TR CAGR according to Morningstar is 21.04%. Lots of value creating acquisitions intermingled with special dividends.

I prefer the term fopdoodle, red, plonker is just so working class :-)

Watching CPC - did you have a peek at the admission document, red? Maybe I should just buy some?

Stairway not so chipper today.

Gnk a shambles.
Mars in denial about the debt. The F plan ruled until it 'disappeared' from the reports. Before that it was something else, before that it was something else etc.. Second class management, second class company. I bought, then, heavily discounted rights at 60p (something like 30/40% discount). Gave CEO piece of my mind at the EGM, held at 9.30am at HQ. Board remuneration has soared. Share price pants.

Rpc BTFD, could have been in C£9 first thing. Flirted with the button. Not as spontaneous as Kim Jong Un.
Je suis un plonker :-(

Lovely comments on PTSG, very enjoyable - pity you didn't video him :-)

At a glance, GNK looks a bit dodgy and MARS holding up reasonably (remember going off them 'cos of debt and deciding YNG was a better bet. FWIW).

Interesting to add an humility metric :-)

Amazing SQZ deal Hydrus.

Attrader thanks Definitely Jeff Bezos (although tbh not sure re humility)

attrader/Glaws

Thanks. Extremely useful.

A few years ago, I got to know a retired professional footballer. One with a brain, who had performed at top level. We once had a discussion about the then manager of a football team. In summary, his comment was along the following lines:
As a player you only take so much bawling and shouting before you switch off. Two to three years maximum before the wheels come off.

Well done Hydrus :)

[hydrus] 30/11/2017 08:30

150% and rising - taken a few off the table but really it looks like a very special deal - 7 fold increase in production with no cash outlay and no shares issued. Big political risk though. That's why it's only up 150%!

[attrader] 30/11/2017 08:29

I am compiling a list of CEOs, Chairman and business operators who excelled at creating value for shareholders. This will be my wish list to see them in future.. My criteria is ..- Integrity - Capital Allocation skills - Humility Who do you think should be on this list?

[hydrus] 30/11/2017 08:13

SQZ 100% up on re-listing - nice way to start the day.

[glaws2] 30/11/2017 07:59

I also saw PTSG last night - CEO - "Geoffrey Boycott on steriods" ! I wavered between being frightened and impressed. More so the latter on reflection. Can't find anything negative on glassdoor.
