Not professing skills in this area but attracted to company by its client list

Pfizer, Johnson&Johnson, Roche and Novartis all clients to name but a few

Company effectively reproduces human response to possible drugs, creams etc . Effectively builds a"virtual patient". Others do this but not sure they have the client list

Seems to get repeat business plus looks to be on c2x - 2.5x sales year just ended. IMHO too low for such a stock. Recent news in Feb all good and suggests on certain ventures they get some interest in new compunds developed

Listed above this price -- 85p --- this time last year. Results should be in next few weeks. Any thoughts?

If you take the figures for contracts already booked for 2007, you could see the co making around GBP 3.5 mil profit. PE 12.

It looks like they should be making money this year I would agree -- I have no idea how much at mo

Yes have other deferred income but maybe the 1H was a bit exceptional on how it was pulled through -- comapnay mentioned it and I'm trying to look on the downside. Happy to see some clarification at results but expect substantially lower normalised rev in 2H with no profit this year. But I am guessing using $10m as "exceptional" 1H revenue to guide me

Still interested

SP holding steady despite FTSE lurching: ENTL Bid: 78p Offer: 82p Change: 0, 6,000 traded

Am also still interested, but have not yet got permission for my trade! May have a nose around and see if there's anything else out there that I fancy.

What's that Soul --- the wife is holding the purse strings ???? ;-)

LOL - not quite (am still single, so don't have that to contend with!). Nope, until my contract with the bank runs out at the end of the month, I have to get prior clearance from my compliance department before trading.

Clearence from a compliance department??
You'll get an audience with the pope quicker than that.

normally they are quite good, but they lost a colleague last week due to an internal transfer and of course I also moved country . . . .

His Holiness rates ENTL a "buy", though ;o)

Sales warnings ---- profit warning

Apologies for starting thread -- effectively a whipping boy for the major pharmas

Price taker not maker

Apologies again

Confi, thanks for the honest update. Luckily I didn't get around to buying this one!

One can't be right all the time, so don't be too hard on yourself. :o)

Just a thought, though: keep watching it on the down, as could become a bargain again!

Don't beat yourself up over it!!!
You started the thread with integrity.
That is the important point. It is those that start them without integrity that should apologise.
Just glad I never got in, though I was watching it!! ;-)

thx for the comments. Will stay away from this now, as can't see good news or a profit for long time given they say an adjustment to business will be needed to cut costs
