OT: Lazarus, here's one (penny stock) for you to look at: GSHF.

I added a few dollars more today to my (losing) position.

(I make no claim that this is a value stock.)

i would like to follow up on PPMD with a few comments.

i also own BLFS which has around 68 million shares and trades for around 9 cents.

BLFS recently released it prelimary sales figures - you can read the PR here:

biz.yahoo.com

what i would like to point out is that BLFS did have an increase in revenues but the company lost nearly 3 times its revenues whereas if you look at the last filings for PPMD they were actually making a profit prior to going to the pinks.

please take the time to look at BLFS financials:

sec.gov

and compare them to Protides last filing:

sec.gov

i believe that sales for PPMD have increased as they have for BLFS only that PPMD is in much better financial condition. i suspect its sales are as good as - or perhaps better than BLFS and that the company operates at a small profit.

BLFS has a market cap of $6,000,000 whereas PPMD has a market cap of only $720,000. if PPMD were to share the same market cap as BLFS it would be $1.25 today.

here are some of PPMD's products:
