Q: Hello,
Wondering if you can comment on content below from Neptune's earnings release today? Do you see upside from here? It was apparently up 3.6% after hours in US market though at first glance it's hard to see the positive. I have a small position having bought just over $2 and wonder if it is a buy, sell or hold and why?
Neptune Technologies reports Q4 net loss of $10.68 mln vs loss of $1.33 mln in prior year, revs $4.02 mln vs $3.67 mln in prior year (1.40 +0.04)
Q4 adjusted gross margin was 26% vs 20% in prior year. "In line with Neptune's decision to slow production down to address product handling characteristics, consolidated sales for the first quarter ending May 31, 2015 are expected to come in at approximately $2.0 million, while the gross margin will remain under pressure. However, with the positive momentum we are seeing at the plant and a robust sales pipeline we expect sales for the second quarter ending August 31, 2015 to be materially higher."

Q: Hi . Wondering if you could tell me which of the health insurance cos could merge. I have Aetna.
Any insight on health care companies which might do the same, or pharma companies?
Many thanks for your service.

Q: Hi Team,
I currently own some PHM and would like to add another stock in the Health Care space. I have a reasonable appetite for risk and look for growth over income. Could you please help me decide between CRH and VRX for, say, a two year hold?
Thank you,
John

Q: Considering all the death crosses in their chart, it looks like Biosyent is in a condition where the technical indicators will rule the fundamentals for a bit. I bought it at the top end in an RRSP and TFSA (3%)so is it worth holding. Was the stock just stretched out too far in Q1 or are there some fundamental concerns? I don't have any issue holding on for a couple of quarters or buying a bit more when it bottoms if there are no serious fundamental concerns.
Q: VRX may be buying an Egyptian Co. Seems they were not expected
to go shopping - maybe because of their debt level.
Your opinion please, as I have a 4% position.
Thank you.

Q: When you calculate insider ownership, do you count shares such as options, indirect ownership and restricted rights shares equally with directly held shares. Now that CXV have started their acquisition process what is their insider holdings percentage? Is there any indication of what the contributions of these two acquisitions will be towards CXV's bottom line?
Q: Hello,
Since Jason Donville recommended Biosyent (RX) on December 24 I was in on what I perceived was a dip and luckily out again before it dipped another big chunk. Similar thing with Knight (GUD).
My question is whether there is a price point at which either of these become "no brainer" buys? For an investor willing to absorb some risk are we near that point with each stock at $7?

Q: Thanks for taking my question. You last commented on this company in early 2014. Could you provided an updated point of view on its level of attractiveness?
Q: I recently took profits and sold 3/4 of my position in Nobilis Health (NHC), as I did not feel comfortable with earnings "attributable to noncontrolling interests" being higher than those attributable too NHC (which resulted in a net loss for the quarter). Is this a concern? And how is this calculated?
I am thinking about re-investing the NHC cash into RX and/or GUD. Is there any reason why the market seems to be reacting negatively to RX's recent quarterly results (which actually beat consensus) or is this sell off just sector or valuation related? Also, I note that RX trades at a massive P/B ratio. Is this a concern? Is this a good entry point for RX?
And would you prefer GUD to RX or just buy both? I am fairly risk tolerant and my only other position in the health/biotech sector currently is PHM.
Thanks! Feel free to dock me a couple question credits for this doozy...

Q: Looks like they made some anti cancer drug breakthrough on tissue samples? Hate to miss a big rise if it happens, since I have been looking at this one for awhile. Do you think this development is for real?

Q: Hi Team,
If you could only buy one Canadian pharma company, which of the three would you choose today - CXR, VRX, GUD? Or would you pick another?
This is for a small, long-term growth position as part of a balanced portfolio. Any thoughts you have would be most appreciated, like always.

Q: Can I get your thoughts on Concordia's (CXR) earnings?
Also, I see that they announce in US dollars. To determine an accurate p/e multiple, would it be as easy as simply converting the $4.19US earnings per share, expected in 2015, into Canadian funds and using that number to divide the shareprice with, or are there other factors to consider?

Q: Hello Peter & Team,
April 14 you commented (@ $3.05) you were comfortable with the stock.
I am up a little under 60% in a very short period of time. It is very tempting to take the winnings and go away. Please tell me why you think I should or should not do this and what you think we might be able to expect for MSL over the next 360 days.
In appreciation for all you do
Gord

Q: hello 5i:
have read a lot recently about GUD and J Goodman. Mr. Goodman seems to be the main resource; how dependant is the company on him, and what would management look like without him. Could they survive?
