FONAR Announcement WAS VERY Informative and Here Is Why I see it that way: #1. End of R&D and END of Negative cash flow (BUT, Not the Negative "Flow" of Negative Posters until they see MRI Sales. Which, I'll put it more mild than I would really like to; "Short Sighted," MRI Sales is ALL they seem to be able TO see. You Negative Posters completely ignore the FACT that the HMCA side is ALREADY Profitable increasing yearly, bringing in 90% of the revenue. Perhaps Fonar now FULLY INTENDS to accomplish that SAME success with the MRI side of the Business. #2. BEGINNING The PUSH for SALES. (Seems that Short Sighted Negative Posters never did Grasp the Fact that Fonar could NOT just jump out and sell machines that were NOT READY. Being a "Small Company" it was a "MUST" that Fonar Develop a BETTER "Machine" than the Competition. Well Quoting that Press Release; "Following two and a half years of intense R&D activity to develop and consolidate the features on its new QUAD(TM) scanners and after a period when FONAR had kept its sales activities and sales expenditures in check in anticipation of the new product capabilities, FONAR announced today it is ready to spend on sales and marketing and turn its attentions from predominately R&D to predominantly sales." SURE, Investors can Choose to "Focus on the PAST" but how much good will that do You or YOUR Investment.? ) #3. Spend on sales and Marketing and TURN its attentions from predominately Research & Development TO Predominantly SALES." (If I thought that wasn't TRUE, then I would SELL every share I own this morning .................. Perhaps "Negative Investors ought to decide if they "Believe That Statement or Not" and if not, well ??? About 1/3 of the Trading on that heavy volume yesterday was Institutional Trading, so if Investors don't believe that statement, then I'm confident those Institutional Buyers will be HAPPY to purchase your shares................. #4. ''We're ready,'' said Dr. Damadian. ''Our products are in position to square off with the competition and capture sales. Our future products are also far enough along to meet the second, third, and fourth waves of product demand.'' Now, I consider that a "threat" TO the Competition. Also, RIGHT THERE before your eyes is the EXPLANATION for the "Running 2 shifts of workers and Inventorying of Products." WHY? Because of another Misconception by Negative Posters who constantly posted that Fonar Management had "No vision, No foresight, No whatever," I'll not comment on what I think of those negative remarks, use your own imagination to gather my thoughts, I'm sure something that stinks will come to first thought. #5. Fonar Management didn't have a dime to work with and then get A LOT of Fully Deserved CASH dumped in their lap. Yet Negative, impatient investors expect them to perform a miracle over night. Amazing to me, Such immature Thinking from such intellectual adults and even contagious, like a virus, pulling many (who really know better) into this "Mind altering negative mode." Fonar would have stupid to sell Machines before they were BETTER or READY. I think Fonar really thought they were ready to hit the road running back last year BUT what if R&D got a break about the same time? Perhaps something that would REALLY stand the competition on its head. If I were in a situation like that I would most assuredly put a halt to any sales push until READY. Well, do I believe the Statement in that Release, ''We're ready,'' said Dr. Damadian. ''Our products are in position to square off with the competition and capture sales." If I doubted that, I would have Sell Orders in place this morning instead of Buy Orders...........It is really THAT Simple............ I have said this Many Times before and I'll keep on saying it. If an Investor cannot see Fonar as being MUCH better off today as a TOTAL Company than Fonar was in 1995 priced over twice as high as current, then THAT Investor has some serious decisions to consider......... and I suggest that Investor get on with it............ #6. Yes, it remains to be seen "IF" Fonar Can "Capture Sales" but if they do, THEN we do NOT just have an MRI company selling MRI Products. The TOTAL Fonar is MUCH MORE, it is a REVENUE GROWING Company. MRI Revenue & HMCA Revenue, In my vision, I see 100 Million annual revenue from EACH Side and GROWING. That is no "Small Company," Whatever else they may venture off into I just don't know but I bet over time there will be some. #7. I have personally felt, as I do now, ever since I even heard of this Small Company called Fonar. At that time I was learning about Investing, still learning but at the same time, I have even expected TOO Much TOO Soon. However, the FUNDAMENTALS have only become MUCH better and I now can see the STEADY Marching Forward. I'll close with another comment I have made often. "I've been privileged to be in a couple of Bill Mathews CHEAP Investor Huge Winners and If I ever am privileged to be in another, I fully expect it to be Fonar Corp. I think Fonar Management gave indication in that press release that they share MY Vision... #8. I haven't said a lot lately but No amount of criticism against me will turn me off now. All these other negative folks freely speak their mind constantly and so will I stand UP, even though I may stand alone. Malcolm Lindsey
