RECOMMENDATION TO BUY!********


Mediwatch-A Synopsis:
Mediwatch was established in 1996 and has developed a range of specialist
medical equipment for the diagnosis of urological disorders.The group joined the
AIM in 2000 through a reverse into Prostcare plc,which at the time was valued at
8m.While the vast majority of sales were generated in the UK,there was a
substantial indirect export business involving a number of agents,supplying into
Europe,North America,Australasia and Asia,notably Japan.
Group revenues are set to increase rapidly following the acquisition of the former
Medtronic Urodynamis Division,which has introduced a fundamental presence in
North America.The deal was in 2006 with the sales division building from 2007.
With the inclusion of the Medtronic systems now owned by Mediwatch they now
can offer a 'One Stop Shop' for the diagnosis of various urology disorders with the
benefit of Mediwatch systems having the ability to electronically send data from the
various tests to a central data base!Oh and plus the added bonus of PSAwatch and
now PCA3plus!

More than 30 million PSA tests are performed annually in the USA alone!

FUTURE EVENTS AND LATEST
NEWS

Just for the record and to even things up,this is Treblewide's view (near end
of 2008):

"in short 3p by chrimbo and a real chance if they do not get rid of management they
will go into receivership.....when they bough the MDT business I said at the time it
must have been a bag of shite as they only paid buttons for it.......looks like that was
fairly correct......i feel sorry for shareholders"

Treblewide has been filtered from my eyes for his abuse,lies and general behavior but
it's a free country (I think) so do as you see fit.

interesting stuff from that article...very few men die from prosate cancer and it is not an agressive disease....treatment can be worse than the disease.......kind of suggests their whole business model is based on sand to me.......but hey who wants a balanced view.

Treblewide - 18 Jun 2007 00:31 - 76 of 1754
exercise and sex may cause a raised PSA...so you guys may have stumbled on a test for fit shaggers :-)

I am gonna name Me-Di-Watch

Gonna-go-bust-soon-iwatch

Treblewide - 18 Jun 2007 10:59 - 85 of 1754
minder...i do not make light of prosate cancer....show me one post where I do...i make fun out of this company yes but not the disease so wind yer neck in pal.

show me any trace of a profit and i will maybe change my mind

Treblewide - 18 Jun 2007 15:54 - 97 of 1754
minder made a small loss yes which I have more than made up for shorting it........and i guess your average holding is 3p.....aye right.

Aalso I closed out my short at 8p for a loss of the spread if memory serves me correctly.

currently short from 13.25....i thank you and goodnight

Treblewide - 23 Jul 2007 12:36 - 154 of 1747
more of the same......thank god i still do not own shares in this lot...will they ever
make a penny profit....looks doubtful......cannot even manage a small supply chain.


ect ect ect

with the last few posts:

Treblewide - 30 Mar 2009 09:16 - 1704 of 1754
you are a lunatic mick.....words fail me.

and ps i only post under treblewide on any financial web site....i know you cannot say the same......you have been calling this as a buy and nothing but a buy for about 7 years...it says it all really about your stock picking ability

i notice the downtrend ins now establishing itself....re-visit of the lows again by the looks of things

Treblewide - 30 Mar 2009 22:41 - 1712 of 1754
mick no i dont know what each product does...i dont think that is important...the numbers tell everything and even though you must spend hours on web sites searching for stuff that is not even related to MDW you fail to grasp the basics...they consistently lost money and now seem to be making some...my call to 3p was correct and i think if they had not got their shit together they could have gone under

i was not interested in them as a long play while they were loosing money depsite whatever rubbish you posted regarding piss sticks or whatever you bang on about.

and yes it was poor trading..having an avergae of 12 and averaging down to 6-7p while they were at 3p....is terrible trading...that cannot even be debated...the very fact you know so much about the products means you have fallen in love with this company......which is very dangerous when investing....

the numbers are the important things...i was right on 3p, the company is posting slightly better figures but we are in a bear market which has not bottomed yet so the price will fall further

you are a 1 trick pony that posts irrelevant links...dont bother to respond i can be bothered getting into a debate with you.....away and cut and paste some more flags

I have been chased from here and now ADVFN,has the boy got a problem?

treblewide - 3 Aug'09 - 14:46 - 22345 of 22412


post 22342 is classic.....so mick advfn is not a good source when the consensus is sell?

begs the question why you spend so much time polluting it with your bull tripe?

question....so MDW share price has gone up, it has gone down etc etc...during all of that time has mick ever been able to find any subjectivity in his posting ie has he ever critisised anything?

i really think he may be getting paid by MDW...the whole thing is very bizzare.

mick i notice you referred to your threads as "promotion of Mediwatch"

can you confirm if you are getting financially rewarded by the company for this?

treblewide - 3 Aug'09 - 23:55 - 22371 of 22412


664k overdrawn....takes a long time to pay back at 39k profit every 6 months.

drawn down overdraft has increased by 170k and they paid 33k to service that overdraft and made 39k profit...as i keep saying my local fish and chip shop make more money than this lot.

margins have been squeezed...psa watch now off the agenda in terms of updates....not 1 single reason to buy and yet you lot think this share price will go up??.....am mystified why it would increase? genuinely why is this comapny under valued?? i cannot see it and dont bang on about fairfax saying they are going to make x amount...they have never been near to getting it right

if i were a holder i would be selling now at 6p if i could and buying back in the 2-3p range which the chart is saying is now a certainty....i expecta full year loss

i told you all to sell at 14p and at 11p (it is all there in black and white) and that it was going to 3 pence..i got abuse mick called me an idiot and suggested it was going to 50p......still a sell and my short (which was posted in real time over the road) is nicely in profit.

toodle pip...will log back in when it gets to 3p....

treblewide - 4 Aug'09 - 10:49 - 22379 of 22412


still time to get out at 6p.....dont understand why you would not sell at 6p when they are obviously going to half in value...if you are a long term mdw bull you can buy twice as many shares at 3p and maybe possibly one day see a profit on your holding?



treblewide - 4 Aug'09 - 12:44 - 22381 of 22412


last chance to sell at 6p for your shares folks


treblewide - 4 Aug'09 - 14:48 - 22387 of 22412


so question...is psawatch is so great...why has there been no huge surge in revenue figures from UK and Europe on the back of it being sold?

the whole reason a lot of you hold this is psawatch...it has not made them any money in Europe which could be argued when taken as a whole is not much smaller than the USA.....this company is not going to change overnight with US approval...at bets it would be a selling opportunity for long term holders

i really think a lot of you have to ignore some of the nonsense ramping going on here...the company is draining cash and there margins are reducing (despite this wonder PSA machine they have for sale)

i really think the future looks bleak for mediwatch...if someone can put in concise terminology why MDW is a buy i am all ears....dont point me at fairfax report...they are a bunch of clowns as well...that interim report is shocking and i mean really poor.

costs out of control...margins squeezed, cash running out...no real revenue growth, does this sound like a growth company to you?

sell at 6p


treblewide - 4 Aug'09 - 15:50 - 22391 of 22412


god i have heard it all now...mick can you counter my points about declining margins and cash issues without nonsense posts about peopel having insider information...what a crock and what a clown.

so just so i have this straight in my head...when you put in effort to ramp these shares it is all great and you expect cuddles? (and if anyone disagrees you throw your toys out the pram liek an old woman)

when i put up a few posts to explain why i am short it is an organised attempt to get the share price down because i have insider inforamtion from the US?

were you the Iraqi information minister in a previous role? lol


treblewide - 5 Aug'09 - 19:24 - 22409 of 22412


lol.....shares getting sold today at 5.75.....next stop 3p...

treblewide - 4 Aug'09 - 12:44 - 22381 of 22408 edit


last chance to sell at 6p for your shares folks




treblewide - 5 Aug'09 - 19:29 - 22410 of 22412


i wonder what thier overdraft is limited to....1M?

if so they have 12 months of life left at current perfomance...how many of you hlders have considered the chances of them going bust?....i would not rule it out...would love to know how much further the banks will let them go into debt before they pull the plug

treblewide - 5 Aug'09 - 19:37 - 22411 of 22412


seriously if i were a holder i would look at the interims and ask how much longer can they go on burning cash.......and with all the averaging down the bulls have done over the years i bet some are more exposed than they should be....good luck...think you might need it




ANYWAY

Treble, in your view what is the reason for the very weak sp, considering this weeks PSA announcement.
After all, this development could well produce 100's of thousands or indeed millions of profit to MDW.
opto

Crikey!
More buys than sells and 12% down.
Happening across the board so not an MDW issue,just everyone very cautious at moment.

Still very happy to hold and wish I was in a position to buy but hey hoo.Will pop back at lunchtime.

opto...it has been coming for a few days now ever since the results to be honest which was a profit warning......the chart has been making new lows......i did not see any new stock market announcement this week just a newspaper article containing old news on products MDW have been counting revenue for a while on. i think we will see the 3p level sooner rather than later

as i say good luck

treble,
That isn't true that it is old news, PSAwatch has been CE approved and available but had not been launched until this week. The reason for the delay has been getting the consumable manufacturing sorted out and getting some mass production going before officially launching it, which would make business sense.

nonsesne...they said they had resolved production issues about a year ago.... if the information had a fundamental impact on the value of the company they are legally obliged to announce it to the stock market which they did not........that is an undebatable fact so as i say nothing new here despite what people would like you to believe.........lack of annoucement to the stock market means your post above is total nonsense

Treble, yes the charts are making new lows but surely with this enormous PSA testing market opening up the charts could soon be moving the other way.
Thanks for your 'good luck'

opto...i hope it does move up for you but i doubt it.... by the comapny's own admission there is little real growth in the foreseebale future and margins are under pressure...i fear and have been of the same opinion for some time i think the share price has a long way to go yet but i think it has further to fall as opposed to much upside potential.....due to tightening of the economy since their last statement i now expect a full year loss when the publish in Jan....just my opinion...I am sure Mick will try to pour scorn on it but the facts speak for themselves

At least MDW still have a broker GON from what I hear have lost theirs!

Treble,twisting the truth yet again,I see.Anyway,must dash.

Treble,
You stated:

"nonsesne...they said they had resolved production issues about a year ago...."

If we look at the facts from the 29 July 2008 Interims (yes,2008 and not 2007):

"We have also experienced delays in commercialising the PSAwatch, due to delays in regulatory approvals within and outside the US and third party manufacturing problems in manufacturing the strips in volume, all effectively outside our control."

Have to dash again,catch the last of the light :-)

lol.......so as i say where is the new news? so the news is they no longer have supply chain issues in the small consumable business...big deal.....and no RNS says everything

grapsing at straws as usual....

head still firmly stuck in the sand....

Treble,your rambling now.

lol.......keep up the pretence dude..the facts are all there in black and white

New while-you-wait blood test for prostate cancer

"The new test, called PSAWatch, makes screening quicker and easier, with no need for samples to be sent to laboratory or for patients to return to their doctor's to pick up their results.

The while-you-wait test, developed by the inventor of the DIY strip pregnancy test, is being used in a number of private practices in the UK but is not yet available on the NHS."

'Speeding up the testing process cuts out the worry factor for men,' says Jan Holt, head of marketing for the test manufacturers, MediWatch. 'It is still used in a clinical environment, so that men receive their results in the presence of a trained medical professional and it means they can immediately discuss the results and their options of further testing and investigation where necessary.'

"MediWatch has also launched a second, more accurate test for prostate cancer a urine test that detects specific genetic markers associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer. The PCA3Plus is a more expensive test, however, and typically used only after a raised PSA blood test result has been recorded.

Dr Tim Larner, a consultant urologist at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust said: 'These two new tests, when taken together, could really change the outlook for men we suspect to have prostate cancer. This simple fingerprick test enables us to rapidly identify at-risk men who warrant further investigation, whilst the PCA3Plus test enables accurate identification of cancer risk following an unclear biopsy result.'"

Out of interest I believe the inventor for the following is MDW's Operational Executive Dr Ian Davidson PhD- "The while-you-wait test, developed by the inventor of the DIY strip pregnancy test"

"Dr Ian Davidson PhD - Technical Director Mediwatch Biochemical Ltd
Ian gained a PhD from the University of Edinburgh for studies into the structure of a microbial polysaccharide. After a period of post doctoral work at the Ministry of Defence, Ian joined Corning Medical initially in Essex but subsequently in Massachusetts. During this time with Corning he was responsible for the development of immunoassays for application in thyroid & anaemia disorders. Ian joined Unipath directly from USA and enjoyed a number of years developing pregnancy & ovulation tests for home use as well as a number of tests for use in clinics & laboratories under the Clearview brand. Tests such as Clearview Chlamydia, Clostridium difficle, Listeria & Strep A.

Ian has been responsible for bringing the PSAwatch to commercial viability"

just had a look back at the thread and noticed this wee excahnge....you should have listened Mick old bean

Treblewide - 21 Jan 2008 16:01 - 383 of 1082
mick.....looks like market pricing "mysterious" bid at 14p so even if it does happen hardly a great return for people who have held for five years and watched their money depreciate over that time.

would be amazed if anyone would pay 20M for this lot.

if i were a holder i would have sold today and ran a mile
scotinvestor - 21 Jan 2008 16:04 - 384 of 1082
keep posting on sites that u have no interest in........what a sad way to carry your life
Treblewide - 21 Jan 2008 16:13 - 385 of 1082
:-) thank you scotinvestor....
banjomick - 21 Jan 2008 16:46 - 386 of 1082
scotinvestor,Treble is only joking.

I believe Treble on the 17th of this month said 'it would be a long time before you see me buy any MDW again' or words to that effect-lol.Could have bought at below 11p then :-)
Treblewide - 21 Jan 2008 16:48 - 387 of 1082
mick...you are making a mistake by not dumping these when you can
banjomick - 21 Jan 2008 16:49 - 388 of 1082
Come on then Treble why should I dump my MDW shares now or did you mean last week?
Treblewide - 21 Jan 2008 17:10 - 389 of 1082
take the money and run
banjomick - 21 Jan 2008 17:14 - 390 of 1082
I wouldn't be able to run very fast carrying all that money-lol

More than happy to wait............................
Treblewide - 22 Jan 2008 08:53 - 391 of 1082
back to 10p by end of next week?

Yes,you have finally flipped-lolz

go on admit it you regret not selling at 14p...if you can at least start by admitting that you can deal with the very obvious problems you have with your investment strategy

Here we go again................This thread is set up mainly for me to post information relating to MDW and the sector they belong to..........this is not for Treble with his ego problem to keep having personal digs at my investment strategy,pertaining to MDW!

oooohhh touchy....this is a public thread MAM is not just for your use my friend

I agree but your childish behavior and lack of research makes me think you are just trying to trash this thread.
