Just in case anyone thinks their stock-picking has improved, this stock has increased the share density - just be certain to check on this if/when you come to sell. You now own a tenth of the number you bought.
This stock was 25p (old shares) in 2000 - - and - - are now about 15p after the consolidation - that compares with a corrected price of "2.50" just five years ago.

Is this a business on the decline?
Management has shown no attempt to build a business and there are some folk in (was it ) Crewe who are still shocked by the closure of the UK facility - matched by those of us who had ISA/PEP holdings that were trashed on the day they ann moving to AIM.

They are doing you clueless tosser but you don't launch three new molecular diagnostic products setup two new offices and employee some of the leading lights in the molecular diagnostic fields on a few million quid. They are not selling mars bars you know.

"if this money-raised is spent wisely" I would call buying a product and within a couple of years have it earning 3 times what you paid for it year on year spending money very wisely,.

Quite clearly you dont have a clue what you are talking about so I would advise putting a sock in it unless you want to continue looking a bigger tit than you do already.
