Just quick summary to bring this to your attention; more detail will hopefully follow.

This stock floated yesterday at 10p and has since doubled. It has, needless to say, suddenly become very popular on another BB.

The company is profitable already and trading on an estimated (by yours truly) forward PE for the current year of 9 at SP 20p. EDIT: Hoodless Brennan estimate EPS for Full Year 2006 will be 2.18p - see article (link below).

Free float is 11.4% of the 81.2 million shares in issue - most are held by the directors.

PDYOR, etc.

Cynic some seem to disagree with you. Moving up today?

wowee! .... fine if you bought at 15, and that's about it!
just been reading back at the raves on this thread back in early august when price was 27p+
and what happened to this EU approval that was going to happen by end september? ..... certainly no rns that i can see

THIS THREAD IS NOW DEAD. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

This is far from dead, just watch over the coming months.

wow, really quiet, not much to say, im waiting for full years results.

even with the crap pr, how can the PE of 6 be justified for a company which has seen year on year growth?

cynic, u havent posted one of your 'i told u so' statments in a while. by the way since u seem so well infomred, any stock tips??

ill be adding small amount in the run up to june, hopefully good results, but who knows, afterall this is the AIM.....

i may be opinionated and a purveyor of home truths, but certainly not well informed!

if you keep your eye on BB, you will readily see the stocks which i rate as a buy, or even as a sell or avoid ...... if you have the nerve and application for it, the indices can be a source of fun as well as money

oily .... only very slightly sorry to tease, but on 3rd Jan you wrote, "This is far from dead, just watch over the coming months" ..... at the time, sp was about 17, so it has lost a further 20% since then ..... perhaps you also have a friend called Lazarus?

Hi Richard, the fundamentals havn't changed and as pp79 points out with a pe of 6 and cash generative someone is taking the pee big time. I am happy to hold even if its a bottom drawer share for a few years. Who the hells Lazarus. LOL.

Lazarus, of course, came back from the dead, like a good pal of mine who "died" about 6 times 2/3 years ago, but within 6 months or so was right as rain, or sunshine for that matter.

will one be able to say the same of TAIH?

The only thing that would concern me with regard to TAIH is if Dr Mike Wyllie decided to call it a day. He is the chief scientific officer for Taih and is responsible for bringing viagra to the market place. Therefore, with someone of his stature on board, the company has ambition and leadership. The real profits for TAIH will come in 3 years or so when they enter the injectables market. All in the future I know, but that is what makes this a great speculative selection.

meanwhile, you would be much better to put your money elsewhere

SO much for my warning, good luck.12.5p to sell.

BREAKOUT. BREAKOUT. BREAKOUT.

Obviously not a lot of intrest in this one on this site.

Someone purchased 137000 shares at 18p today, 2.5p above the offer.

More blue to come IMHO.

oily any news due?

Finals due by end of June. Currently sitting on a PE of about 3.

Increased demand and sales in China and S Korea.

No news as yet on US or EU licenses. Rumoured to be in line with injectables.

Approx 3 years until injectables are availiable, then this should become a multibagger. IMHO.

Had to top up today, rising nicely on any buying.

Final results must be announced this week.

Not in this one, sold a long time back and escaped at break even.

To me, they do not seem interested in their London listing, it appears to me that they only listed on AIM to assist with their EU and US approvals (the "listed on London FTSE" mark).

This would explain the absolute crap, imo, PR that Taihua has.

Its also explained by the small free float and also the minimal money raised on listing.

If this is the case, then I see very little point in investing in Taihua, as, they will continue to have crap PR, they will not plan to pay any dividends, and so, what value will be delivered to any shareholder ?


They also appear to be very happy to bump revenues by increasing debtor days and trade receivables...........so keep an eye on those figures from results, and the "net cash generated from operations".......if there is any.

concur with PP and recollect that some months ago i commented (as usual) about the wisdom of investing in chinese companies ...... i haven't changed my mind!
