Ann: Half Year Report and Accounts , page-6

Decan,

Whilst skepticism is healthy, remember that due diligence has been done on the company by both of the large-scale manufacturers in Malaysia and Poland, who are currently tooling up for massive production runs (at their cost). They didn't want to talk to the company a year or two ago, but they've now taken them on after checking out the worldwide demand for TruScreen, which is currently hamstrung by the supply-chain issues for SUS supply (which the manufacturers will obviously sort out). They wouldn't have passed the due diligence stage if the demand was 'thin air'.

As for your assertion that the "PLT board and management are yet to deliver on any of their promises" ... they have sold and delivered almost a third of the TruScreen devices required to get to break-even. It is more than plausible that you need to hold back sales if you can't supply the consumables to keep them running ... to me this indicates they are systematically doing what has been their primary focus ... to get TruScreen out there, ASAP. The trouble is it hasn't been as soon as we would all like, but that is about to change.

You've got your skepticism, I've got my optimism ... each to their own, time will tell.

By the way, I've heard some very negative things about GBI in recent times, which I thought it best not to post ... some rumours or speculation are best left unpublished.

Cheers.
