Coronavirus Penny Stocks #1: Biolase Inc.
Right before the lunch hour, shares of Biolase Inc. (BIOL-Free Report) started seeing erratic volume. Not only did the penny stock shoot up, it was also halted due to the volatility. Meanwhile, investors searching for a potential catalyst likely found one quickly in Biolase’s latest update.
The company announced a partnership with an ICU equipment maker, Mekics, to manufacture ventilators. Obviously, this was in response to the growing need caused by COVID-19. Biolase reported that it received FDA Authorization for emergency use during the pandemic. Again, this headline is based on a partnership deal with another company. Biolase’s official business model, however is still along the same lines of a company that would host a product like this.
The company focuses on developing and supplying medical devices. It also sell dental imaging equipment and laser systems mainly geared toward dentists. In its most recent quarterly report, the company reported an 18% increase in sequential net revenue. Furthermore, Biolase improved its operating loss by $3.5 million on a year-over-year basis. In regard to this latest development, there wasn’t much more as far as early details are concerned. So it will be interesting to see what happens or if there will be a follow-up to this latest event. After reaching highs of $0.90, the volatility has definitely picked up so if BIOL is on your list of penny stocks, you may be in for a wild ride.
