Q: Is the recent pull back in Biosyent a good buying opportunity? What do you think of the company? I have been interested in RX due to their very consistent track record, good balance sheet, and free cash flow generation but the stock was always a bit "pricey". Thanks.

Q: Good morning 5i,

I've held RX for a while and have been frustrated by its performance for some time. Thankfully the stock has been on the move up for the last 9 months. Today it finally reached my break even price and I'm strongly inclined to walk away with my original investment. Could you please provide your thoughts on the company, its current prospects, and if you would continue to ride the momentum or look to greener pastures?

Thank you again for your valuable advice!

Q: I attempted to ask about this stock yesterday but it appears to have not been received.This stock has been sitting between 7-8 dollars for a few years now. It appears to have a +20 ROE and no debt. Can you think of any reason for it's inability to appreciate?

Thank You, Stephen S

Q: There has been good appreciation in many Canadian healthcare names over the last while. When I look at RX I see a company with no debt, free cash flow, growing cash position, and moderate earnings growth. All the while it appears poised for a good q4 and trades at a relatively reasonable p/e compared to the sector. Is this stock poised to move higher at some point soon? Would you recommend it here? Thanks

Q: I am underweight Healthcare, but do own RX - GILD - GUD - SIA. Both RX and GILD are down double digits. GILD I gather from previous questions is probably worth holding on to. But what about RX ...buy more, sell or hold? If sell, what would your "buy" suggestions be to beef up my healthcare weighting?

Thanks again.

Q: How do you feel about the current valuation of Biosyent? They announced yesterday that they have signed a new agreement for distribution of a cardiovascular drug that they expect will add $20M to annual revenue over time (2015 FY rev was $15.39M). Assuming they can do what they say (which they have done well at in the past) do you think the share price is reasonable? This company seems to operate with great margins and is growing with free cash flow. They have $0 in debt

Q: I was falling in love with this company until I saw this in the annual report 2014: "Some raw materials used in production are sourced from a single supplier and the Company is exposed to the same business risks that suppliers may experience." Do you have any idea to what extent this "single supplier" accounts for BioSyent's revenue mix?

Q: Further to Arnold's question today, would you be confident in adding to a position in RX now? I have held it for quite a while and also observed the flat price curve; and have been pondering sell or add.
As technicians look at the RX chart, would they be thinking a "breakout" to the upside as more likely than to the downside especially when coupled with the metrics you and Arnold mentioned?

And of course suggest buying more?

Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
The value of your service keeps shining through. At least if you sour on a stock we hear about it and if you soured enough on one in your portfolio you would drop it and we would hear about it. Jason Donville is a smart man but having added one of his Top Picks from October( Cipher) ,November (Direct Cash) and December (Biosyvent) and hearing on subsequent shows he dumped Cipher and Direct Cash since, it puts a pale note on following BNN Top Picks.....is RX a sell or hold at this time, I am under water on all 3 large.
Thanks for all you do

Q: I haven't seen a question about Biosyent in a couple of months, it's trading near its 52 week low. You indicated in May the fundamentals looked good, the price is still is dropping possibly due to the sector. I am considering taking a position at this time, please advise your thoughts.
Thanks
Jim
