Hope revenues are still growing faster than expenses (in % terms)

Suppose we'll find out tomorrow eh t_j

Good to see you posting something that demonstrates just how far ahead of the pack Pacific Edge is Balance.....
(or did you hope this latest "threat" might spook the herd?)

From the first article, the hopeful developers of a competitor test say..

"The plan is to have a solidly documented proposal for such a tag, or rather a small set of tags, by the end of 2017. By then, we should have come far enough for Inven2 to start looking for business partners who can develop our tags into a commercially viable test for bladder cancer," Lind says.



Professor Lind adds that the researchers have encountered some unexpected practical challenges during the project. It proved to be very time-consuming to collect the urine samples that was needed in the project

Urine is not the best environment for cells, and if stored too long, the cells will lyse and the DNA will be lost. Therefore, the researchers had to organize a system that allowed fresh samples to be sent by taxi three times a day from the Department of Urology on the east side of Oslo, to the research department some eight miles further to the west.
"We take turns to carry a dedicated cell phone, and the researcher on "sprint duty" have to run to the hospital's entrance every time a taxi arrives with a sample. Thereafter, he or she rushes to our laboratory to centrifuge the urine, and finally we freeze the cells to be studied later," Lind explains.


(my bold)

I don't have access to the Roche test in the second article but is this just a companion marker for it's treatment drug?

Lets hope so (and that I have some new batteries for my calculator )

Thanks for that psychic. I'm sure PEB are shaking in their little bladder boots at such a fierce rival

Fascinating reactions, aren't they?

Tells a lot about the confidence of those who hold PEB shares?

Do you think David wil use the words 'exciting' and 'transformational' a lot tomorrow

Your talking points are fascinating too mate, ofcourse.

The first reaction was I didn't feel Roche would be a near term (or medium term) threat to the likes of PEB's products, in terms of market share, growth and sales. In the longer term, its very possible PEB will be hauled in by something superior (maybe their own technology?)

All I can image here (comically maybe) is half a dozen well dressed gentleman driving around like Jason Statham off Transporter trying to get urine samples to headquarters against the clock.
