BATM Advanced Communications (LON:BVC) CEO Zvi Marom discusses Hepatitis C diagnostics in China: ProactiveInvestors Stocktube

Published on 1 Jul 2016
BATM Advanced Communications Limited (LON:BVC) has received a boost with its Chinese unit Adaltis was valued at US$58mln as a result of a new equity investment by a local partner.

Adaltis, a manufacturer of medical devices, is getting a US$3mln (RMB20mln) injection from Egens Biotechnology in return for a 5.5% stake in the business – and the partner also gets an option to buy a further 10% at a later date.

The investment terms are the result of six months negotiation and Zvi Marom, BATM chief executive, says all parties agree that it has been done at a “very fair price”.

It comes as an Egens and Adaltis joint venture presses ahead with plans to distribute Hepatitis C diagnostic kits through China, one of the countries most afflicted by the infectious disease with an estimated 350,000 to 500,000 deaths every year.

“Nobody can ignore the Chinese market,” Marom said in an interview with Stocktube.
He highlights that medicines focussing on infants and infectious diseases are priorities for the Chinese government.

“They are pushing the medical sector, they are investing a lot of money and there is no doubt that if you want to be a global player, and this is our ambition, then you have to have the Chinese market,” he added.

Stobart Group (LON:STOB) chief: ‘Brexit won’t have much of an effect’: ProactiveInvestors Stocktube


Published on 1 Jul 2016
Stobart Group Ltd (LON:STOB) tells Proactive Investors that it is “pretty confident” Brexit will not have much of an effect on its largely UK-based businesses.

“With the deflation of the pound I’m sure we’ll find more visitors coming to the UK and using the South-End Airport,” says chief executive Andrew Tinkler.

“We’ll be looking at links with Northern and Eastern Europe,” says Tinkler.

But he says the group was going to be sensible about which connections will work.
“We’ve got to be aware of the ticket, people buy on price. But it’s the efficiency of our service that is so much better, allowing us to compete with other big budget airlines,” he says.

Addressing Thursday’s announcement that the group would be doubling its dividend, Tinkler says that shareholders were undoubtedly happy.

“Our free growth business is a solid platform to grow off allowing us to return over £300mln to shareholders.”
