Bioprogress (BPRG)     

scorpion - 13 Aug 2003 13:54

Bioprogress is a stock I have been in and out of quite a few times since it floated in May but not much mention here on the Investors' Room. Does anyone else follow this stock. I see it is up 1.5p today and a few good buyers seem to have appeared.

I AM A WALRUS - 14 Mar 2007 05:14 - 2307 of 2372

Actually, that was a mindless post to see if my sign on worked.

That said I do expect significant news in the short term. All one has to do is go backwards from a product launch last qtr 2007 and BPRG simply have to have news in the wing.

Not the result some wanted, but with a mkt cap of around 90m and less than zero profits, what else can be expected?

They haven't given us a product buy for EXGEL and really for most of us that's what we have been led to believe was the lynchpin for the future? Mkt cap might halve from here and not many would be surprised? 'Till they give us the nod on XGEL that is.

For further information:

Fred1new - 18 May 2007 16:47 - 2313 of 2372

Share price up about 5.14% with increased volume based on the above information.

Interesting to see next week.

Big Al - 18 May 2007 22:50 - 2314 of 2372

Will this ever be a quid again?

Seriously, they seem to bring out a stream of decent news. You'd think it would stick more than the smellier stuff these days. Hmm.

Fred1new - 19 May 2007 13:14 - 2315 of 2372

BA, I think so, but it has to breakout of the present side way trading and break through its 75p resistance level.

The projected results should support future higher price.

The majority of analyst are positive.

I think (hope) it will fly over the next few months unless stalled by overall market retracement.

Big Al - 19 May 2007 22:25 - 2316 of 2372

Sentiment is a strong driver in stock markets unfortunately Fred.

It seems to be bad around here still.

Acquisition of PharmaHerb Limited
21/05/2007


London, UK, 21 May 2007: BioProgress (AIM: BPRG; NASDAQ: BPRG), the specialty pharma and healthcare company today announces the acquisition of PharmaHerb Limited ("PharmaHerb), a UK-based vitamin and nutritional business. The consideration for the acquisition was 600,000 which has been settled by 150,000 cash and the issue of 694,981 ordinary shares of the Company with a value of 450,000. Application will be made for these new ordinary shares to be admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. It is expected that dealings will commence on 24 May 2007.


PharmaHerb is a specialist 'Over-the-Counter' (OTC) products company, whose core activities include product formulation, manufacturing and packaging. The acquisition includes PharmaHerb"s Kudos range of brands together with its sales and marketing capabilities. The Kudos brand is a premier label business focused on the promotion of vitamin and nutritional products through established and diversified distribution channels. These distribution channels include niche health shops, pharmacies as well as supermarket chains. The business also has a direct-to-consumer internet sales capability (www.kudosvitamins.com).

The acquisition of PharmaHerb creates an OTC platform for the Company with established sales and marketing channels which will allow BioProgress to directly market its own OTC ranges into its domestic market. Pharmaherb acquired the assets of Kudos in March 2007 which included packaging equipment, stock, formulations, intellectual property as well as sales and marketing agreements and established channels to the OTC consumer market. The sales of Pharmaherb are negligible (2006 sales of Kudos were 255,000 and the business invested approximately 1m in capital for assets and infrastructure growth), however, the assets represent an operating infrastructure and thus a low cost entry into the UK market. BioProgress expects to utilise these assets immediately to create strong organic growth. Combining the Kudos and Dexo product ranges will provide a broader product portfolio to further develop and expand the acquired sales and distribution capabilities. In particular the business will be used as a base to launch future UK Soluleaves, Meltums and other XGEL enhanced OTC products.

The acquisition is analogus to that of DMPL earlier in the year and will provide a significant distribution channel for the MINCI DIET product range as well as supporting the co-promotion of SlimThru obtained through a partnership agreement with Melbrosin International, announced earlier this year.

Richard Trevillion, Chief Executive Officer said:

The acquisition of PharmaHerb Limited and the Kudos brand are an important step as a launch pad for our own XGEL OTC products and to generate revenues within the UK market place. The acquisition further strengthens our position and reflects our drive into the growing niche branded OTC market. The established distribution channels that come with this acquisition allows us greater and more rapid market access for our growing product portfolio.

BioProgress PLC
29 May 2007


For Immediate Release 29 May 2007


BioProgress plc ('BioProgress' or the 'Company')
Intention to delist from NASDAQ, deregister and terminate SEC reporting
obligations

London, UK, (29 May 2007): BioProgress (AIM: BPRG; NASDAQ: BPRG), the specialty
pharma and healthcare company today announces that it will delist its Amercian
Depositary Receipts ('ADRs') from The NASDAQ Stock Market and deregister and
terminate the Company's reporting obligations under the U.S. Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the 'Exchange Act'). The Company's Ordinary Shares will continue to
trade on London's AIM.

The Company has provided written notice to NASDAQ of its intention to delist and
intends to file a Form 25 with the SEC on 8 June 2007 to effect the delisting.
The Company reserves the right to delay the filing of the Form 25 or withdraw
the Form 25 for any reason prior to its effectiveness. The delisting is expected
to take effect on 18 June 2007 at which point the Company will file a Form 15F
with the SEC to deregister and terminate its reporting obligations under the
Exchange Act. The deregistration is expected to become effective on 17 September
2007, by operation of law. The Company reserves the right to delay the filing of
the Form 15F or withdraw the Form 15F for any reason prior to its effectiveness.

The decision to delist from NASDAQ, deregister and terminate the Company's
reporting obligations under the Exchange Act has been made due to the burdensome
costs of compliance with the SEC rules and in particular the Section 404
requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Company believes that the
cost of compliance outweighs the limited benefits and trading in the company's
shares for a company like BioProgress and the cash saved can be put to greater
use in other parts of the business.

The Company expects to maintain its ADR facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
and to amend its Deposit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., to reflect
its deregistration and allow its ADR's to trade on the over-the-counter (OTC)
market in the United States. BioProgress expects to continue to publish its
Results and other documents and communications in accordance with Exchange Act
Rule 12g3-2 on its Web site, located at www.bioprogress.com.

Richard Trevillion, Chief Executive Officer commented:
'At this stage of the Company's development there are limited benefits of a dual
listing and the costs of maintaining the NASDAQ listing have increased
significantly over the last 18 months. The cost savings can be utilised to
accelerate the growth of the business, particularly in the United States, which
continues to be an important market for the business.'

Proprietary Product Development Update
31/05/2007



London, UK, 31 May 2007: BioProgress plc ('BioProgress' or the 'Company') (AIM: BPRG; NASDAQ: BPRG), the specialty pharmaceutical and healthcare company, today announces an update on its product development program.


BioProgress has nine integrated enabling drug delivery technologies with pharmaceutical and healthcare applications. The Company has in development over 30 patent protected products using these core enabling technologies. The developments are classed into three main categories

1. OTC and Nutritional Products

2. Line extensions for acquired Pharmaceutical Brands

3. Innovative Products suitable for out-licensing or for sale by Dexo BioPharm

1. OTC and Nutritional Products

The Company has launched a range of Soluleaves nutritional products in the United States and Europe. In addition, in the OTC pharmaceutical sector, the Company has developed a range of Soluleaves products for launch initially through Dexo US. The products include respiratory drugs, cough / cold and sore throat products. These products do not require pre-FDA approval and will be marketed throughout 2007. Development work is carried out at the Company's facilities in Cambridge, UK and in Tampa, USA. The range includes the following:



Technology Development Phase

DBP130 Anti-Diarrhoea Soluleaves Pre-registration
DBP147 Local Anaesthetic Soluleaves Launch phase - US
DBP211 Decongestant Soluleaves Pre-registration
DBP214 Anti-histamine Soluleaves Pre-registration
DBP216 Analgesic TabWrap Scale Up
DBP310 Analgesic - basic FastWrap Pre-registration
DBP312 Analgesic - combination FastWrap Pre-registration
DBP314 Analgesic Cold & flu FastWrap Pre-registration


The Global OTC market for analgesics and cough/cold products is worth $16.7 Billion per annum. Similar new novel patented pharmaceutical technologies can achieve sales penetration rates of approximately one percent of the relevant market share.

2. Line Extensions for acquired Pharmaceutical Brands

BioProgress has acquired a number of branded medicines suitable for immediate extension utilizing one of the Company"s enabling systems. The main developments in this area are:

Product Territory Launch

DBP213 Cough Ah-Chew extension USA 2007
DBP215 Cough & Cold Ah-Chew extension USA 2007
DBP272 Gastric Reflux -Combo RocGe EU 2008
DBP274 Gastric Reflux - Basic RocGel Global 2008/9
DBP276 Gastric Reflux - Chewable RocGel Global 2008/9


The Ah-Chew line extensions use Soluleaves technology and will be the first oral thin film within the US DESI prescription market. The line extensions for RocGel use the liquid SoluPol technology, as well as a chewable tablet, and are expected to be a core driver for pan-European sales within the gastro-intestinal market. The SoluPol range of products has been developed by the Cambridge Development team.

3. Key Innovative Developments

The Companys core new development includes the following:-

DBP117 Anti-Migraine

The Development team has been able to overcome significant technical challenges to place an anti-migraine drug of a class of compound known as a triptan into an oral film strip. The triptan market includes brands such as Imitrex (GSK) and Zomig (AstraZeneca) and is worth $3.1 billion in 2007 (Datamonitor) growing at 3.1% per annum. A number of these products are converting from Prescription to Over the Counter use which is expected to expand the market.

The product has passed the initial formulation phase and is due to commence scale-up manufacturing trials in H2 2007. The product is planned for submission to US and EU regulatory authorities during 2008. It is expected that DBP117 will achieve peak sales revenues of 1 to 1.5 percent of the Global triptan market share per annum.

DBP118 Anti-emesis

BioProgress has developed a product for anti-emesis which has been induced by cancer therapy. The category of medicines is called 5-HT3 antagonists, such as Zofran (GSK) and Kytril (Roche), have become the mainstay of the treatment of oncology induced nausea.

The Company has formulated a DBP118 using the Oradisc technology, owned by Uluru Inc. The product uses a buccal disc that can dissolve gradually over time, allowing for the sustained release of the active drug.

It is expected that the product will enter into pharmacokinetic studies during 2008 with the product being filed using the NDA 505 (b) (2) regulatory pathway. The Company is expecting peak sales revenues to be in the region of $32-40m per annum.

DBP121 Smoking Cessation Product

BioProgress has developed a new concept in smoking cessation. Whilst lozenges and microtabs take 10-30 minutes to deliver their nicotine content, a cigarette typically will deliver the effects of its nicotine in seconds. Current therapies do not mimic this "high and therefore smokers find it difficult to reduce the number of cigarettes accordingly. The current global smoking cessation market is estimated to be $2.3 billion (Datamonitor)

The Company completed its first volunteer study in April 2007 as an open assessment study in volunteer smokers. This study showed a marked decrease in cravings using DBP121. Along with positive taste and consumer acceptability information, this data has been instrumental in the Companys discussions with several global partners. BioProgress is currently assessing all of the potential partners from global to regional partners in order to extract the maximum benefit for the Company.

From detailed market analyses and from other launches of new nicotine replacement dosage forms, BioProgress anticipates that DBP121has a peak sales potential of $150 to 200m per annum within the smoking cessation market.

DBP167 Analgesic

DBP167 is a series of developments using a novel form of ibuprofen in conjunction with polymer technology. The development is focusing on the requirement to deliver analgesia significantly quicker into the blood stream than traditional pharmaceutical tablets. Published data shows that standard paracetamol type of analgesics can take 40-90 minutes before the patient is able to see a noticeable reduction in pain. BioProgresss product has demonstrated impact in only a few minutes, anything from a simple headache, migraine or breakthrough pain can be effectively and quickly treated.

SoluPol liquids, Meltums (melt in the mouth), NRobe and FastWrap versions are all scheduled for development as analgesic indications along with a novel sachet formulation integrating decongestants for line extensions into the Ah-Chew franchise.

The global OTC market for analgesics alone is currently $6.2 billion with the cough-cold market being $10.5 billion. With the addition of the prescription analgesic market, BioProgress believes that it has a unique marketing advantage over the main competitors. The products will be promoted into the prescription market as well as the OTC market and will become a cornerstone of the BioProgress core product developments.

DBP167 will enter regulatory submission in H2 2007, with the further developments progressing through formulation and scale-up.

With the target OTC market being in excess of $16 billion, the company estimates that its innovative prescription and OTC strategy would lead to a 1 - 1.5 % market share of the major pharmaceutical markets.

Steve Martin, Chief Development Officer said:

BioProgress has made significant progress over the last year converting its enabling technologies into tangible product developments that meet consumer and partner expectations. We have launched three new technologies, EntWrap, FastWrap and Meltums. Each of these technologies has been well received by potential partners and as the Company has progressed in its developments, the data accumulated has been instrumental in increasing the partner interest.

The Development team is working on a number of confidential product projects with other pharmaceutical companies using the full range of enabling technologies. With revenues currently being received from its restructured NRobe technology licence agreement, the Company is in a strong position to deliver its own technologies to the consumer market.

Product launches are scheduled throughout 2007 and beyond, a healthy pipeline is essential for the future growth and profitability of BioProgress. The Development Team has worked tirelessly to create our vision of medicines that act quickly and are easy to take.

BioProgress PLC

For Immediate Release 6 June 2007



BioProgress launch first SoluleavesTM products in UK



London, UK, 5th June 2007: BioProgress plc ('BioProgress' or the 'Company')
(AIM: BPRG; NASDAQ: BPRG), the specialty pharmaceutical and healthcare company,
is pleased to announce the launch in the UK of the first of its range of
SoluleavesTM, melt in the mouth products.



The first two SoluleavesTM products to be marketed will be, Caffeine Soluleaves
TM - energy boost, and Zinc and Echinacea, which helps boost natural defences
against colds and flu. Other SoluleavesTM products including Vitamin B complex
and anti-snoring will be launched in the coming weeks.



The SoluleavesTM range of products will be marketed through the newly acquired
PharmaHerb Limited, a specialist Over The Counter (OTC) products company, using
the Kudos brand. Distribution will be through its established niche health
shops, pharmacies, supermarket chains, as well as its direct to consumer
internet selling (
www.kudosvitamins.com
).



The market for energy products in the UK is valued around 700m, with the UK
cough cold market valued at 430m. The company believes the products possess a
number of advantages over existing market products such as being quick to
disperse in the mouth leading to rapid onset of action, and suitable for people
who have difficulty swallowing tablets and capsules. Peak sales are estimated to
be within 1 to 1.5% of their appropriate market.



Richard Trevillion, Chief Executive Officer, of BioProgress commented:

'It is testament to the strength and depth of the Company's infrastructure that
BioProgress has been able to reformulate to UK standards and launch new products
in record time. This launch has been timed to capitalize upon the recent
acquisition of PharmaHerb. It will also be the first time consumers will have
access to the benefits of the SoluleavesTM system in the UK market'.

News Flash: SlimThru Update
06/06/2007


BioProgress and Melbrosin have been working together on the television support of the unique food and weight management brand, SlimThru which has achieved excellent results.



The UK TV campaign breaking across terrestrial and satellite channels throughout June 2007 for a period of six weeks forms part of a wider marketing campaign including a radio campaign, press promotions and PR. This directs people to the www.slimthru.co.uk website which achieved a record of almost 10,123 contacts in the first 5 days of advertising.



SlimThru has been successfully launched in a number of EU countries under various related brand names and has achieved market leadership in Austria in the first 5 weeks of marketing. Similar successes are being achieved in other markets.



BioProgress PLC will continue to work as co-promotion partner with Melbrosin using its developing network of retail outlets and supporting the media campaign.


Big Al - 06 Jun 2007 20:46 - 2325 of 2372

Not much of a reaction there. I'm still surprised all this good news has no effect whatsoever.

Shame for holders I guess.

Fred1new - 07 Jun 2007 10:10 - 2326 of 2372

I have a feeling more and more are realising that the smaller companies with large R and D costs, promises for tomorrow, with little cash flow have a disproportionate risk. Also in BPRG share price has been a heltershelter ride for years.

Another factor is sentiment to the market at the moment, my guess for the last few days the flow of cash was out of the market in general. The same information in a more bullish market would have lifted it.

BPRG promises profit for this year, a change and future projections are promising. The market they are catering for is substantial and sustainable.
I would consider it a good defensive stock.
I think the outlook is good. But DYOH.
