Analyst Reports

Biosensors by MS: Top pick for 2012. Expect further expansion of its distribution network in international markets, benefiting from the advanced technologies of its flagship product, BioMatrix. In addition, Co. expects to receive CE mark approval for its core pipeline product, BioFreedom, from the EU in 2012, which should be the key catalyst for the next 12-24 months.
Comment: Chart has broken its 52 week high. Looks bullish. Co. is having a presentation a JPMorgan's BioMedical Conference next week
