A Dozen Reasons To Love Dermatology Companies
ACCESSWIRE - Tue Jul 14, 8:25AM CDT
WHITEFISH, MT / ACCESSWIRE / July 14, 2015 / There are a number of reasons investors worldwide love dermatology companies. For starters, support of innovation has been key in gaining a far better understanding of skin conditions and advancing effective, safe therapies capable of becoming standards of care. Of course, Wall Street loves upside potential. At a more granular level, the logic underscoring dermatology as a good investment is quite diverse. As David M. Steinberg, Managing Director Equity Research at Jeffries, puts it, dermatology products have several general attributes: 1) shorter development timelines; 2) lower clinical trial costs; 3) perceived lower regulatory hurdles; 4) high cash pay components for aesthetics; 5) a recent track record of success; and 6) a really active M&A market, which Mr. Steinberg described as a second way for shareholders to win. Oculus Innovative Sciences' (NASDAQ: OCLS) CFO Bob Miller and CEO Jim Schutz expanded on Steinberg's view in the company's June earnings call, adding 7) derm has strong pricing, product margins, and insurance coverage;
it is a concentrated call point, meaning companies don't need an enormous sales force to cover; 9) derm has fast sales ramps; and 10) dermatology has great valuations or multiples on revenue.

Oculus Beats Consensus Sales Expectations by 30 Percent, Turnaround Plan Working
ACCESSWIRE - Mon Jun 15, 8:28AM CDT
WHITEFISH, MT / ACCESSWIRE / June 15, 2015 / At the end of May, shares of Oculus Innovative Sciences (NASDAQ: OCLS) broke above their 50 day moving average, a technical resistance at 90 cents and another at $1.05. The move continued to fill a previously open gap at $1.08 and take shares above their 200 day moving average, a sign of bullishness in technical analysis, as the stock printed as high as $1.97 on Tuesday. From the May low of 65 cents, the stock made a bottom-to-top move of 203%. All of this upward movement is important, as the company has received a delisting notice from NASDAQ for deficient bid price. The stock needs to close above $1 for 10 consecutive days in order to satisfy NASDAQ requirements for continued listing. Through June 12, the closing price was above $1 for eight consecutive days.

WHITEFISH, MT / ACCESSWIRE / May 28, 2015 / Gold miners are their own special breed, utilizing skills most laymen do not understand to analyze the ground, drilling to confirm targets and digging-in to unearth the precious yellow metal. Throughout the world, though, there are still plenty of artisanal miners finding gold and others plucking a nugget from a pan that they stuck in a stream. Whatever the method, it often takes poring through plenty of material and some savvy vision to find the payoff, a tactic that can be applied to many applications in life, including the stock market.

Antifungals, an Overlooked Biotech Niche With Big Potential
ACCESSWIRE - Wed May 20, 7:37AM CDT
CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / May 20, 2015 / If a global competition were held for the planet's most sadly ironic places, the hospital would place very high, if not win outright. This is not only true from before the late 19th century when the germ theory of disease became widely accepted. Before then, the hospital - a place that is designed to heal the sick - was just about the best place on Earth to contract a life-threatening infection due to unsanitary surgical procedures. This is still sadly true today as well. Hospitals are still the largest breeding grounds for deadly superbug infections due to the very sanitation procedures meant to stop them.
