John,
Here's some news from this afternoon. CII added Ross G. Morrison to the Cryopak Board. He's a businessman with experience. This should benefit the company and the shareholders.
There's been good support at the $1.00 level. I've noticed that there is almost always a good sized bid for 10,000 or 25,000 shares at that level. Looks like we'll stay in this range ($0.98 to $1.15) until we have a few more new buyers come along.
I wonder when they will announce a new contract? One I'd really like to see would be with FedEx or another large carrier. I would also make sense that a sea food company (companies that will ship fresh lobster, fish, etc., straight to your door overnight) would want to use the product to ship the food. It does the job better and it's lighter than using ice - you could use less - and therefore not as costly to ship.
Anyway, here's the announcement.
Brian
P.S. Notice the last portion of the press release that makes reference to what CII does - bold is mine:
