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!

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

http://mediwatch.blogspot.com/

Just updating my spreadsheet for the FPDS orders (Ed-sad bugger!) and there was an order put through on the 3rd of this month for "PAPER FOR BLADDER SCANNER, 57MM/25M/12MM."

Not very interesting you may think but this is the first time since MDW took over from MDT that I have seen anything to do with MDW's own original products on this site!

I may be wrong but I don't remember seeing Bard sell the Bardscan here either and I'm not about to trawl through that again!

I can't see MDW supplying paper for another companies products so the only logical explanation is that there is an order yet to be put through for one or more Portascan+ units.

This bit confused me "57MM/25M/12MM" but I believe the 57mm is the width,the 25M is the length and the 12mm is actually the rolls per case.....but I could be wrong of course.

Info got from:http://www.alliedpaperco.com/thermal.htm

Forget most of the above-lolz

PAPER-FOR BLADDER SCANNER [89440]-21/09/07

hmmmmmm

Edit-I now think the paper is for the Urodyn 1000 and are actually thermal labels,oh well-lol

Been having a few router problems,fed up and new one required.

Anyway,this must have been added over the weekend:

BAUS 23 - 27 June Manchester

Mediwatch was delighted to exhibit at The British Society of Urology Surgeons annual meeting this year in Manchester, We had a large 6 metre by 6 metre stand which was purpose built for the event. BAUS was attended by over 2000 UK and international Urologist, giving us the opportunity to announce the direct sales operation in the UK, and launch both PSAWatch and the Portable Urodynamics System. We generated over 100 sales leads, and found old friends who hadnt seen us for a couple of years, when our products were with our UK distributor.

http://www.mediwatch.com/Events.php?events=true

"and found old friends who hadnt seen us for a couple of years, when our products were with our UK distributor."

MDW implying they were not happy at all with Elemental Healthcare,in my view!

Morning banjo
i don't think Elemental were any good at all looking at past revenue.
Sholud see an increase in sales in the UK rest of year. Looking at the above statement.

Afternoon Dave,
I'm looking forward to the interims as they should give a clear indication of where MDW are heading....................they better! :-)

Come on MDW,get a grip!

The website 'last updated' now reads 25th July 2008 and leads you to the 'Important Dates' page where it still reads 'Announcement of interim results TBC'

Think it was meant for the 'Events' page :-)

Well,the interims although positive for long term won't go down well short term,methinks.Least I'll be able to buy more at an even cheaper price.

well,bought a few more,roll on director buys now.....maybe-lol.
dyor ect ect ect

It's quite possible MDW will end the day blue!imo. Overall they are still a very solid company who are moving forward,anyway back tonight.

mick...i am genuinely sorry as people have lost money here...it has happened to me many times but i doubt it will end the day blue as you suggest...they have effectively given a long term profit warning which for a company who are meant to be growing is terrible..........mark down tells it all......am genuinely sorry and i think you are going to loose a lot more money as you cannot seem to have a balanced opinion on this compnay.......good luck holders

Afternoon Treble,
I thought you might drop in.................

Maybe not blue today then! Is that balanced enough? :-)

The current state of the global markets are effecting everyone and MDW wisely or not have reflected this within the interims.

I haven't lost or indeed likely to any money, all that is happening is my average is getting lower and lower.

have to dash but all that is happening in the short term is people changing their positions this will include both buying and selling.All will settle out in due course with MDW being best placed as the markets improve to regain interest.MDW have achieved profit status within the last two
half yearly results so they are obviously doing something right!
Each to their own at end of day.

you haven't lost any money? what purely because you have not sold the shares...ok then...keep the head in the sand...strange behaviour indeed

Treble,
I think it's far stranger that you pop over for a chat every time you have something negative to say,whether it be on a spike upwards or downwards!

You obviously have an agenda or are you just trying to look after my interests?

I'll just lob this in for now but will no doubt type at length later tonight:

Six monthly revenues,

to APR '06 - 979k
to OCT '06 - 830k
to APR '07 - 1.829m
to OCT '07 - 3.855m
to APR 08 - 4.371m

i dont have any agenda...this is a share i have actively traded for years....that is the whole point of this internet site ...is it not?

and re revenues...big deal...they issued a profit warning today make no mistake about it as they had paid some research company (cannot remember their names) to tell the market what to expect moving forward.....it is plain they will never get anywhere near they figures....

more profit warnings to come and a full year loss means this is a 3p by chrimbo shot...i wish i had kept my short running.

these were a sell as i suggested at 14p...and at 10p as i suggested and at 8p...guess what i think of them now...yeah yer right....still a sell... chart is horrible and 3p is still a real possibility...but i am sure Mick you will continue to wear the rose glasses and tell us why things are great.....and you will hold for another 5 years no matter what........proving my point once again...i wish you luck, i really do...i will leave you to it as i know the timing of "i told you so " is a bit painful

Evening Treble,
I believe this particular thread is under the section named 'Investors' Room' not 'gamblers anonymous room'! :-)

If you have made money all I can say is well done,even though I disagree with the whole 'shorting' ethos but that's another topic.

"more profit warnings to come and a full year loss"-Not sure how you can come to that conclusion but it's all part of the 'shorting' strategy I would assume!

'Things' are bad in just about all sectors and on a global scale but all will recover in various degrees especially those like MDW:

"US Office

The Company has made some operational improvements in the US division. A clinical group has been established including a VP of Clinical Services along with a Clinical Services Manager. This team will bring a high level of expertise and many years of experience in Urodynamics to the Group and will begin offering Urodynamic clinics to customers, provide clinical assistance to customers and upgrade the delivery service of capital equipment."

"The new Portable Urodynamic equipment has been distributed to the sales team for demonstration and sales purposes. This equipment will allow the team to carry their demonstration equipment rather than shipping the larger units. This will significantly increase the number of demonstrations the team will be able to perform and significantly reduce the cost of conducting demonstrations. The company feels that there is significant demand for a smaller portable unit and this product will fill this gap in our product lines."

"Mediwatch has diligently put in place some excellent building blocks for growth and we are pleased to report our second, successive half-year period of profitable trading. In the six months to April 2008, Mediwatch has built on the integration of the Medtronic acquisition and the research and development programme to generate profits and improved cash flows. This gives the business an excellent platform for further product extensions, both through internal product development and from external sources so that the business can further exploit its route to market."


forgot about the dishes-lol Back later.

Been having a few laptop problems but sorted now.

Just looked on ADVFN on trades and my little top up of 8236 has caused no end of problems!

Lets look at what happened today,closed the day before at 8.62p (mid):

Interims got issued at 09:43

First trade goes through a sell at 09:48 for 10k at 7.78p and the SP drops from 8.62p to a range of 7.75-8.25p,think that can be classed as a wooooosh!

Next was a sell through at 09:56 for 100k at 7.00p and along with a few other smaller sells that sent the SP on a downward spiral to a range of 6.00-6.25p

Next major development was at 10:09 with a 100k buy at 6.25p which then gave a range of 6.00-6.50p

I bought a very small ammount at 6.5p at 10:12-lol and grrrrrr,minutes out but hey ho.

After that normal trading patterns occured!

Therefore,mm's have taken full advantage of MDW admitting the markets are going through a tough time,didn't the mm's know this? lolz!

MDW invited what could be classed as a 'Tree shake' type thing to happen........why? MDW stated the obvious that didn't really need to be stated so often....why?
