Mediwatch-A World Leader in the Urology Diagnostic Sector (MDW)     

banjomick - 10 May 2007 23:36

*****This thread is setup mainly to gain information
relating to Mediwatch in a quick and easy way and IS IN NO WAY A
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!

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.


It started with:

Treblewide - 05 Jun 2007 15:49 - 33 of 1747
still short

Treblewide - 18 Jun 2007 00:24 - 69 of 1747
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

toodlepip

**************************************************************

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

Hmmmm,MDW's new broker upped to join KBC on bid so now 2-1,was that you Treble? :-)

Treblewide - 15 Aug 2008 11:13 - 800 of 1785

wow...a broker has moved on level2.......crazy crazy action

banjomick - 15 Aug 2008 12:03 - 801 of 1785

I blame the sunshine :-)

banjomick - 15 Aug 2008 12:57 - 802 of 1785

One reason Fairfax upped their bid could be to gather a bit of stock ready to sell back as they know good news is on the way or.............they might have just fancied a stroll of course!

Treblewide - 15 Aug 2008 13:15 - 803 of 1785

ffs.....lets read lots into nothing....that is why you are left holding this donkey.

yeah a MM moved on L2...must be something up.

banjomick - 15 Aug 2008 13:17 - 804 of 1785

This will please Treble:

Re website-MDW have been pretty quick this year in updating their website eg same day/next day but there is still no mention of the PCA3 Plus test under the 'Products' heading although it did get a mention under 'News Archives July 2008'.
There is still no mention of the Multiscan 360' on the website as yet:

http://www.optimed.home.pl/pdf/multiscan_360.pdf

The change of NOMAD/Advisor has still not been changed!

This leads me to conclude that there is a major website update on the way which may or may not tie in with a major announcement!

banjomick - 15 Aug 2008 13:21 - 805 of 1785

"that is why you are left holding this donkey"-I don't have a donkey!

banjomick - 15 Aug 2008 13:35 - 806 of 1785

Treble,
Got things to do but have put your view up there in the header just to even this thread up a bit,should keep you happy...............

banjomick - 21 Aug 2008 18:36 - 807 of 1785

Anything exciting happening with MDW,Treble? (Ed-Prob.not the best person to ask) Back off me hols.Sat or maybe even Sunday.

scotinvestor - 22 Aug 2008 17:34 - 808 of 1785

banjomick - 22 Aug 2008 18:10 - 809 of 1785

Evening scot,
Still on me hols.

As said before will catch up Sat/Sun. Time for 'Scrabble',it's all go here! :-)

scotinvestor - 22 Aug 2008 18:14 - 810 of 1785

have a great time mick

banjomick - 23 Aug 2008 22:07 - 811 of 1785

Back off me hols and what has changed?

Website wise:

Updated with new NOMAD/Broker

PSAwatch on front page along with the video,hmmmm,the PDF has gone again!

There was a new Edison research note on the 18th,will read that later with a beer,I may need one! :-)

I'm sure I'll find new bits and bobs over the next couple of days.

banjomick - 23 Aug 2008 23:46 - 812 of 1785

The August Edison Research Note makes for very interesting reading especially when read in conjunction with past 'notes' and MDW's own 'results' over the last year or two.

What makes this Edison Note more interesting than past 'notes' is how over time they are gradually building up an indepth picture of MDW which is a very good sign,in my opinion.

People can easily knock these 'research notes' as is their right but regarding MDW they have been about right.

In my opinion MDW can still be classed as a 'new' company as it's only since the MDT deal we see the true potential! With this though brings it's own problems as in building up the global distribution network,reclaiming lost ground and logistics.

Anyway,the main point is the Edison Note gives ME great confidence for the future which is all that matters,as this is a 'safe' long term holding for ME where I believe 18-25p will be seen without too much risk and possibly 30p+ over time if a bidding war starts and that will do me!

DYOR of course

banjomick - 24 Aug 2008 17:46 - 813 of 1785

Not that exciting but MDW (USA) have recently put themselves forward via the Medical Register website which is mainly,although not wholly,for the USA market place:

banjomick - 24 Aug 2008 17:57 - 814 of 1785

MDW (USA) already booked in for AUA April 2009:

http://www.aua2009.org/showfloor09/ec/forms/attendee/index.aspx?content=floorPlan

Treblewide - 24 Aug 2008 19:04 - 815 of 1785

god he is back.....mick i think you will find Edison admitting in their own note that they got their first set of numbers wrong (which they obviously did)........so they hardly have a great track record and they are basically saying in this note that they expect no real growth for another two years.......so you will be sitting on a loss for another two years...add that to the fact your money over these 7 years would have grown 50% merely by sitting on in an interest bearing savings account...kind of sums up your investement I am afraid.......

move on mate

banjomick - 24 Aug 2008 20:45 - 816 of 1785

Evening Treble,
And your back,I see...............

You are correct that Edison did get their figures wrong and they give the reasons why throughout the latest 'note'.

I for one don't expect Edison to be 100% accurate in forecasting,they are not Time Lords after all!

MDW never made a profit over the full year 2007 but did in H2 of that year!

MDW made a profit in H1 2008 with Edison's estimated profit for the full year 2008 now downgraded from 800,000 to 500,000!

So,it's not all doom and gloom as your posts suggest.





Treblewide - 24 Aug 2008 21:50 - 817 of 1785

yip...that is why the share price went down 30% on release of they results.........what is your average purchase price Mick? I would guess about 11p?

i am looking to re-short these on any decent rise again as i genuinely think they are in the shit...profit warnings are usually not a one off...they tend to come in 3's........anywhere near 8p bid and i am back short again...and looking for 3p target

Treblewide - 24 Aug 2008 21:56 - 818 of 1785

so lets do some maths...you are maybe say 40% down on your equity and trading costs and another virtual 35% down on deflation of your pot/equity due to 5 years of non growth....11p average...so at 15p bid (ish) you make a "real break even".....it is going to look a lot worse at 3p....500% rise needed for break even...jeez.

and the fact you have no stop loss level shows you have 100% risk on your equity.....scarey stuff
