ReplyDeleteHi Ronnie,
ReplyDeleteYour blog is looking good.
This recent blog post is informative and covers various areas.
Avita Medical have a pretty good Investor section on their website. I like the way that they have Company Presentations and Newsroom as separate webpages. It makes things much easier when looking for information.
This is some amazing technology that they are working with too. It is good to see a company working towards such a good cause.
I've downloaded their 2013 Annual Report as it will make an interesting comparison to my company, Bradken Limited, which is in the resources sector.
Concerning that on p.11 of the 2013 Annual Report for Avita Medical, there is such a decrease in profits between 2012 and 2013. It will be interesting to identify the reasons behind that change.
Regards,
Sheena
