According to my research Bico has approx 300 million shares on a fully diluted basis, At 3.00 per share the company would have a value of 900,000,000 dollars. The Disassnsor is not fully owned by BICO only about 50% the rest is owned by BICO insiders in a company called Diasense. This means that at 3.00 the glucose monitor would be valued at 1.8 billion !!!!. Also the Monitor sells for approx us $8000.00 and competes with a more accurrate model (invasive) of the same price and most home kits which sell for around $300.00. Many people needing this would require major HMO/Medicare reimbursemnet which will IMHO not be forthcoming except in the most critical of patioents. Calibration of the instrument needs to be done at a special service center which again will be difficult for many elderly patients. Not sure why this company trades for more than 1 penny per share. Or what all the excitment is about . All the details are available from the company in their own reports at sec.gov So don't take my word for on any of this and do your own DD
