Der chinesische Pharmaproduzent verfüge bereits über vier am Markt etablierte Medikamentenmarken sowie über eine spannende Entwicklungspipeline. Lotus Pharmaceuticals vertreibe per Direktvertrieb mehr als 5.000 Arzneimittel und traditionelle chinesische Medizin sowie medizinisches Equipment. Des Weiteren betreibe die Gesellschaft 10 Apotheken im Stadtgebiet von Peking.
Zwischen den Jahren 2005 und 2008 seien die Umsätze um 300% von 18,4 Mio. USD auf 73,8 Mio. USD explodiert. Im gleichen Zeitraum habe sich der Nettogewinn von 1,83 Mio. auf 12,8 Mio. USD sogar versiebenfacht. Im zuletzt abgelaufenen 3. Quartal habe Lotus Pharmaceuticals eigenen Angaben zufolge bei Umsätzen von 14,5 Mio. USD einen Nettogewinn von 5,4 Mio. USD bzw. 0,11 USD pro Aktie erwirtschaftet. Auf das Gesamtjahr hochgerechnet seien das 0,45 USD je Aktie, wobei das 4. Quartal traditionell das stärkste des Jahres sei.
Bei einem Aktienkurs von 1,34 USD betrage das KGV gerade einmal 3, was vor dem Hintergrund der Wachstumsraten und der Zukunftsperspektiven nach Erachten der Experten völlig lächerlich sei.
Für die Experten von "Emerging Markets Investor" ist die Lotus Pharmaceuticals-Aktie ein klarer Verdreifachungskandidat für 2010. Das Papier werde sofort in das neue Musterdepot aufgenommen. (Ausgabe 01 vom 11.01.2010) (12.01.2010/ac/a/a)

Capitalize on China’s Medical Reform with Lotus
Written on Friday, January 15th, 2010 by Rick Telfur
Lotus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTC:LTUS) may not be as well known as Teva Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:TEVA) or Pfizer, Inc. (NYSE:PFE), but this undiscovered stock could pay big dividends thanks to China’s comprehensive medical reform…
Lotus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (LTUS) is a rapidly growing China-based drug company that manufactures branded drugs and distributes them along with products produced by third-party manufacturers throughout the country.
The company was founded and opened its first pharmacy in Beijing in 1996 before purchasing a pharmaceutical manufacturer in 2002. Since then, the company began self-branding and self-patenting drugs and spreading its sales network across China.
In 2006, the company reached a key milestone when the local Beijing government approved insurance reimbursements for purchases from its retail pharmacies. And now, the company is planning its expansion throughout Inner Mongolia.
A Huge and Growing Chinese Market
Backed by Beijing’s $124 billion investment in health system reforms over the next several years, the entire healthcare industry in China will see strong growth in 2010, say analysts from Morgan Stanley’s research department.
China’s Gao Hua Securities agrees with this thesis and projects the country’s healthcare industry to grow at an average rate of 23% in 2010E, with 35-40% growth in rural areas. Meanwhile, the firm insisted that the strong, sustainable secular growth was not fully priced in to stocks.
Pharmaceutical stocks like Lotus will participate in this growth via the government’s drug reimbursements. Many experts believe that these reimbursements will become a key differentiator in the medium-term, with volume expansion outpacing margin pressures.
Lotus Repositions to Benefit in 2010
Lotus currently manufactures four branded drugs that are all listed on China’s national medical insurance catalog. While the company is transitioning to wholesale from retail, which could depress profits in the near-term, the drugs should provide stable revenues going forward.
Lotus’ strategy for 2010 includes (1) expanding their sales network to additional retail locations and hospitals, (2) increase quality drug offerings to more than 20 prescription drugs by the end of the year, (3) expand geographically into Inner Mongolia.
The Takeaway…
- Lotus Pharmaceuticals is operating in one of the fastest growing healthcare markets in the world, and has seen its shares appreciate substantially over the year.
- Lotus Pharmaceuticals has experienced lower financial results over the past few quarters amid pricing pressure and a switch from high-margin retail to low-margin wholesale.
- Looking ahead, Lotus has ambitious expansion plans that could help it capitalize on growth in the Chinese market and deliver value to shareholders.

Endingen (aktiencheck.de AG) - Die Experten von "Hot Stocks Investor" raten die Lotus Pharmaceuticals-Aktie (ISIN US5457151042/ WKN A0MNCW) zu kaufen.
Das Unternehmen verfüge über eine spannende Entwicklungspipeline. Laevo-Bambutero, ein in Testreihen hoch effektives Mittel gegen Asthma, sei einer der Hoffnungsträger des Unternehmens. Das Präparat sei im vergangenen Jahr einlizensiert worden und solle 2012 auf den Markt kommen. Der Markt für Asthma-Präparate habe in China einen Umfang von 3 Mrd. USD. Schon heute sei China der fünftgrößte Arzneimittelmarkt der Welt. Die Umsätze in diesem Bereich würden sich von 11,7 Mrd. USD in 2005 auf 24 Mrd. USD in 2010 mehr als verdoppeln. Ein schier unbegrenztes Wachstumspotenzial biete sich durch den wachsenden Lebensstandard sowie die demografische Entwicklung.
Lotus Pharmaceuticals könnte mit einer über Jahre hinweg bestens eingeführten und etablierten Produktpipeline und einer sehr spannenden Forschungssparte in diesem Markt kaum besser positioniert sein. Und doch sei die Aktie aktuell noch sehr günstig zu haben. Das bestätige ein Blick auf die Ergebnisse. Die Umsätze des Unternehmens seien zwischen 2005 und 2008 von 18,4 Mio. auf 73,8 Mio. USD gestiegen, das seien 300%. Im gleichen Zeitraum habe der Nettogewinn von 1,83 auf 12,8 Mio. USD sogar versiebenfacht werden können.
Die Gesellschaft habe zuletzt für das 3. Quartal 2009 einen Umsatz von 14,5 Mio. USD erwirtschaftet. Es sei ein Nettogewinn von 5,4 Mio. USD bzw. 0,11 USD je Aktie ausgewiesen worden. Nach neun Monaten könne Lotus Pharmaceuticals einen Umsatz von 40 Mio. USD und einen Net Profit von 13,7 Mio. USD bzw. 0,32 USD je Anteilsschein vorweisen. Das 4. Quartal sei traditionell das stärkste. Umsatz und Ergebnis dürften deshalb bis zum Ende des Jahres noch einmal deutlich zulegen. Die Aktie sei gemäß den Experten mit einem 2009er-KGV von 2 bis 3 lächerlich niedrig bewertet.
Laut den Experten von "Hot Stocks Investor" ist die Lotus Pharmaceuticals-Aktie ein klarer Kauf. (Ausgabe 24 vom 21.12.2009) (21.12.2009/ac/a/a)

Lotus purchased the patent and exclusive production rights in April 2008 to Laevo-Bambutero, a highly effective asthma drug for which the Company hopes to get manufacturing and distribution approval from China¡¯s State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) by 2012. One of the Company¡¯s affiliates, En Ze Jia, entered into a Technology Transfer Agreement with Dong Guan Kai Fa Biologicals Medicine LTD (¡°Dong Guan¡±) through which Dong Guan agreed to transfer the technology material, new medicine research and rights to the Chinese patent of the anti-asthma new medicine Laevo-Bambutero to En Ze Jia on an exclusive basis in exchange for a transfer technology fee of approximately $7 million (RMB 48 million).

Häufen Sie auf Chinas Medizinischer Reform mit der Lotusblume Kapital an
Geschrieben am Freitag, dem 15. Januar 2010 von Rick Telfur
Lotus Pharmaceuticals, Inc (OTC:LTUS) darf nicht ebenso als Arzneimittel von Teva (NASDAQ:TEVA) oder Pfizer, Inc (NYSE:PFE) bekannt sein, aber dieses unentdeckte Lager konnte große Dividende dank Chinas umfassender medizinischer Reform zahlen …
Lotus Pharmaceuticals, Inc (LTUS) ist eine schnell wachsende chinesisch-basierte Drogenfirma, die gebrandmarkte Rauschgifte verfertigt und sie zusammen mit Produkten verteilt, die von Drittherstellern im ganzen Land erzeugt sind.
Die Gesellschaft wurde gegründet und öffnete seine erste Apotheke in Beijing 1996 vor dem Kaufen eines pharmazeutischen Herstellers 2002. Seitdem begann die Gesellschaft, Rauschgifte selbstzubrandmarken und selbstzupatentieren und sein Vertriebsnetz über China auszubreiten.
2006 erreichte die Gesellschaft einen Schlüsselmeilenstein, als die lokale Beijinger Regierung Versicherungserstattungen für Käufe von seinen Einzelapotheken genehmigte. Und jetzt plant die Gesellschaft seine Vergrößerung überall in der Inneren Mongolei.
Ein Riesiger und Wachsender chinesischer Markt
Unterstützt durch Beijings Investition von $ 124 Milliarden in Gesundheitssystemreformen im Laufe der nächsten mehreren Jahre wird die komplette Gesundheitsfürsorge-Industrie in China starkes Wachstum 2010 sehen, Analytiker von der Forschungsabteilung von Morgan Stanley sagen.
Chinas Gao Hua Securities stimmt mit dieser These überein und plant die Gesundheitsfürsorge-Industrie des Landes, um an einem Durchschnittssatz von 23 % in 2010E mit 35-40-%-Wachstum in ländlichen Gebieten zu wachsen. Inzwischen bestand das Unternehmen darauf, dass das starke, nachhaltige weltliche Wachstum in zu Lagern nicht völlig bewertet wurde.
Pharmazeutische Lager wie Lotusblume werden an diesem Wachstum über die Rauschgift-Erstattungen der Regierung teilnehmen. Viele Experten glauben, dass diese Erstattungen ein Schlüssel differentiator im mittelfristigen mit der Volumen-Vergrößerung werden werden, die Hinterlegungssumme-Druck aussticht.
Lotusblume-Wiederpositionen, 2010 Vorteil zu haben
Lotusblume verfertigt zurzeit vier gebrandmarkte Rauschgifte, die alle auf Chinas nationalem Krankenversicherungskatalog verzeichnet werden. Während die Gesellschaft zum Großhandel vom Einzelhandel wechselt, der Gewinne im kurzfristigen niederdrücken konnte, sollten die Rauschgifte stabilen Einnahmen das Vorankommen zur Verfügung stellen.
Die Strategie der Lotusblume für 2010 schließt (1) Erweiterung ihres Vertriebsnetzes zu zusätzlichen Einzelpositionen und Krankenhäusern, (2) ein Zunahme-Qualitätsrauschgift-Angebote zu mehr als 20 verschreibungspflichtigen Medikamenten am Ende des Jahres, (3) breiten sich geografisch in die Innere Mongolei aus.
Lotusblume-Arzneimittel funktionieren auf einem der schnellsten wachsenden Gesundheitsfürsorge-Märkte in der Welt, und haben seine Aktien gesehen wesentlich im Laufe des Jahres schätzen.
· Lotusblume-Arzneimittel haben niedrigere Finanzergebnisse über die vorigen wenigen Quartale mitten in der Preiskalkulation des Drucks und eines Schalters vom Einzelhandel der hohen Hinterlegungssumme bis Großhandel der niedrigen Hinterlegungssumme erfahren.
· Vorn schauend, hat Lotusblume ehrgeizige Vergrößerungspläne, die ihr helfen konnten, auf dem Wachstum auf dem chinesischen Markt Kapital anzuhäufen und Wert an Aktionäre zu liefern.
Dont Cry Over Spilt Milk
I hope everyone had a good weekend after what was a rather bloody week in the financial markets. The price action was ugly, to say the least, with selling that only accelerated into the close on Friday. I was watching the Russell 2000 small-cap index, which was only down modestly mid-day Friday, but then dropped moving into the close to finish the day down 1.8%.
For the week, the Russell fell 3.3%. Not too bad actually, considering the Dow dropped 4.1%, the Standard and Poor 500 was down 3.9%, and the Nasdaq declined 4.8%. Like I said on Thursday, I find the Russell's resiliency in the sell-off to be encouraging for small-cap investing in 2010, since we would usually expect the index to fall more that the large-cap indexes.
I expect the Russell will hold around 620, or risk falling closer to 600. It closed last week at 617, right around my first support line. In the pre-market today, it looks like the major indices will all open higher on news that Fed Chief Ben Bernanke is closer to securing a second term.
But let's not waste our time crying over last week's spilled milk. I'd rather give you an update on a stock that I recommended back on September 2, 2009 to subscribers of SmallCapInvestor PRO . Since I recommended it the stock is up 110% and I'm confident there are more gains to come.
The company is Lotus Pharmaceuticals (OTC BB: LTUS), and it was featured in my Special Report: The 10 Most Profitable Small Cap Stocks for 2010 when it was a $0.79 stock.
Dean B. wrote in asking for an update on the stock. Subscribers to SmallCapInvestor PRO know that I give weekly updates on portfolio stocks, but since Lotus wasn't added to the portfolio (I can't include every good stock I find, since I need to keep the portfolio to a manageable size) I haven't been tracking Lotus as closely.
"Ian, I purchased LTUS for $1.00 and have enjoyed its appreciation thus far to $1.80. There is very little information about this stock and was wondering if you could give the Small Cap Investor [subscribers] an update on this particular company. Should I continue to hold this stock, or take some profits? Thanks for your stock picking guidance."
Lotus Pharmaceuticals fell pretty hard on Friday - it was down 12% on the day to close at $1.66. Still, subscribers who purchased shares of this speculative drug stock when my special report came out are sitting on gains of 110%, and Dean is up 66%. My initial price target for Lotus was $2.10, and it came pretty close before the recent sell-off. It closed at $1.95 on Wednesday, January 20.
Lotus Pharmaceuticals produces prescription drugs and is a licensed national seller of pharmaceutical items in the People's Republic of China. The company's drug development pipeline is focused on the treatment of cerebro-cardiovascular disease, asthma, and diabetes. Recently, the company received a patent pending notice from China's Intellectual Property Office for Gliclazide-Controlled Release Tablets, a drug treatment that is aimed at type-2 diabetes.
Lotus has made the first installment payment to acquire the patent as part of its continued effort to build its intangible asset base. If and when this drug hits the production phase, shares of Lotus stock could soar.
Development stage pharmaceuticals are highly speculative, since these companies often have no revenues, and minimal capital. Shares of stock will swing wildly in both directions. Fortunately, shares of Lotus offer investors some fundamental underpinnings since ongoing operations are already profitable – otherwise I wouldn't have recommended it.
In the third quarter of 2009 Lotus reported $5.4 million in net income, or $0.11 per diluted share, on $14.5 million in net revenue. This resulted in a 37% profit margin, an increase over the comparable quarter in 2008 when the profit margin was 19%.
That margin improvement was the result of strong performance in the company's wholesale business (which accounts for 80% of net revenues) and solid cost management. Clearly, management's efforts to focus on operational efficiency showed in the quarterly results. Despite a decrease in net revenue of 13% (net revenue in the third quarter of 2008 was $16.7 million), net income increased 69% and earnings per diluted share increased 57%.
According to the company's third quarterly filing, Lotus faces two headwinds: a 42% decrease in average unit selling price due to deflation in raw material costs, and delays in completing its new manufacturing facility in Inner Mongolia. Those delays are mostly the result of trimming back on its investments to complete the facility in order to shore up current operations.
I think Lotus's quarterly results show that it has been able to effectively mitigate these pressures since a 39% increase in wholesale sales volume and the operational efficiency gains resulted in strong financial performance.
Since those quarterly results were released on November 16 2009, the company has secured 500 contracts (in addition to the 300 it already had) with drug stores in Beijing to supply over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, brought in a new leader to head the OTC Divisions expansion, and clarified language regarding its corporate structure that had previously raised investors' eyebrows. The company, like many in China, is a holding company and is structured as such to allow for foreign investment. It is also continuing to invest in its product pipeline.
It's likely that sales in 2009 will be lower than in 2008, but the improved efficiency and profitability indicates to me that this is a company that is getting its internal house in order and getting ready for future growth. I find this very encouraging as an investor.
I'd recommend holding onto Lotus Pharmaceutical for now. The growth prospects are just too good and despite some headwinds, this stock has been a strong performer. Plus, shares are dirt cheap on a valuation basis. Trailing-12 month earnings per share are $0.41, yielding a PE multiple of only 4. Just sit tight while this stock fluctuates and in another six months you'll be very glad you did. It's not unreasonable to think that shares could double in the next year.
This has been a great stock for subscribers to SmallCapInvestor PRO who read my Special Report. In my Special Report: The 10 Most Profitable Small Cap Stocks for 2010, there are 9 other highly profitable small-cap stocks worth your attention. In fact, five of them made it into my model portfolio and you'll receive weekly updates on them as a subscriber.

Keep sending me your questions, my address is editorial@smallcapinvestor.com. I'll give you my thoughts in a future issue.
*** I still see tremendous long-term potential investing in China. Sure, there will be ups and downs like last week, but over time, investors will make a lot of money on Chinese stocks.

Schreit nicht bei verschüttete Milch
Ich hoffe, dass jeder ein gutes Wochenende hatte nach, was eine ziemlich blutige Woche in den Geldmärkten war. Die Preistätigkeit war gelinde gesagt mit dem Verkauf das hässlich, das nur in den Abschluss am Freitag beschleunigt wurde. Ich passte den Russell Kleinkappe Index 2000, der nur hinunter bescheiden Mittag Freitag war, aber andererseits fallengelassenes in nah an Ende sich bewegen der Tag hinunter 1.8% auf.
Für die Woche fiel der Russell 3.3%. Nicht auch waren Schlechtes wirklich, in der Erwägung das Dow 4.1% fallenließen, das Standard und die Armen 500 hinunter 3.9%, und das Nasdaq sank 4.8%. Wie ich am Donnerstag sagte, finde ich die des Russells Elastizität im Sell-off, um für die Kleinkappe aufmunternd zu sein, die 2010 investiert, da wir normalerweise den Index erwarten würden, um mehr zu fallen dass die Großkappe Indizes.
Ich erwarte, dass der Russell herum 620 hält oder riskiere, näeher an 600 zu fallen. Er schloß letzte Woche bei 617, recht um meine erste Deckungslinie. In der Vorbörse heute, sieht er wie die Hauptindizes wird alle aus, die höher auf Nachrichten geöffnet sind, dass Fed HauptBen Bernanke näeher an dem Sichern eines zweiten Ausdruckes ist.
Aber lassen Sie uns unsere Zeit nicht vergeuden, die über von letzter Woche verschütteter Milch schreit. Ich würde Ihnen ein Update auf einem Vorrat eher geben, den ich zurück am 2. September 2009 den Teilnehmern von SmallCapInvestor PRO empfahl. Da ich es empfahl, das der Vorrat herauf 110% ist und ich bin dort bin mehr Gewinne überzeugt, zum zu kommen.
Die Firma ist Lotos-pharmazeutische Produkte (OTC BB: LTUS) und er wurden in meinem Sonderbericht gekennzeichnet: Die 10 rentabelsten Bagatellaktien für 2010, als es ein Vorrat $0.79 war.
Dekan B. schrieb beim Bitten um ein Update auf den Vorrat. Teilnehmer zu PRO SmallCapInvestor wissen, dass ich wöchentliche Updates auf Mappenaktien gebe, aber, da Lotos nicht der Mappe hinzugefügt wurde (ich kann jeden guten Vorrat nicht mit einschließen, den ich finde, da ich die Mappe zu einer handlichen Größe halten muss,) ich nicht Lotos als nah aufgespürt habe.
„Ian, kaufte ich LTUS für $1.00 und habe seine Anerkennung bis jetzt bis $1.80 genossen. Es gibt sehr wenig Informationen über diesen Vorrat und wunderte sich, wenn Sie dem kleine Kappen-Investor [Teilnehmern] ein Update auf dieser bestimmten Firma geben konnten. Sollte ich fortfahren, diesen Vorrat zu halten, oder nehmen Sie einige Profite? Dank für Ihre auf lagersammelnanleitung.“
Lotos-pharmazeutische Produkte fielen recht stark am Freitag - sie war hinunter 12% am Tag, zum bei $1.66 zu schließen. Noch sitzen Teilnehmer, die Anteile dieses spekulativen Drogevorrates kauften, als mein Sonderbericht herauskam, auf Gewinnen von 110% und Dekan ist herauf 66%. Mein Anfangspreisziel für Lotos war $2.10, und es kam recht nah vor dem neuen Sell-off. Es schloß bei $1.95 am Mittwoch, dem 20. Januar.
Lotos-pharmazeutische Produkte produziert verschreibungspflichtige Medikamente und ist ein genehmigter nationaler Verkäufer der pharmazeutischen Einzelteile in der Volksrepublik China. Die Droge-Entwicklungsrohrleitung der Firma wird auf die Behandlung der cerebro-kardiovaskulären Krankheit, des Asthmas und des Diabetes gerichtet. Vor kurzem empfing die Firma eine Patentnachricht Chinas vom geistiges Eigentum-Büro für Gliclazide-Kontrollierte Freigabe-Tabletten, eine Drogebehandlung, die angestrebter Type-2diabetes ist.
Lotos hat die erste Ratenzahlungszahlung geleistet, um das Patent als Teil seiner anhaltenden Bemühung zu erwerben, seine Unterseite des immateriellen Guts zu errichten. Wenn und wenn diese Droge die Produktionsphase schlägt, konnten Anteile des Lotosvorrates ansteigen.
Entwicklungsstadiumspharmazeutische produkte sind in hohem Grade spekulatives, da diese Firmen häufig keine Einkommen haben, und minimales Kapital. Kapitalanteile schwingen wild in beiden Richtungen. Glücklicherweise bieten Anteile von Lotos Investoren einige grundlegende Untermauerung an, da laufende Betriebe bereits rentabel sind - andernfalls würde ich nicht es empfohlen haben.
Im dritten Trimester von Lotos 2009 berichtete $5.4 Million im Reineinkommen oder über $0.11 pro verdünnten Anteil, auf $14.5 Million in der Reineinnahme. Dieses ergab eine 37% Gewinnspanne, eine Zunahme über dem vergleichbaren Viertel 2008, als die Gewinnspanne 19% war.
Diese Seitenrandverbesserung war das Resultat der starken Leistung im Großhandel der Firma (der 80% von Reineinnahmen beträgt) und festes Kostenmanagement. Offenbar zeigten Bemühungen des Managements, sich auf Betriebs-Leistungsfähigkeit zu konzentrieren in den vierteljährlichen Resultaten. Trotz einer Abnahme an der Reineinnahme von 13% (Reineinnahme im dritten Trimester von 2008 war $16.7 Million), erhöhte Reineinkommen 69% und Einkommen pro verdünnten Anteil erhöhte 57%.
Entsprechend der dritten vierteljährlichen Archivierung der Firma stellt Lotos zwei widrige Winde gegenüber: eine 42% Abnahme am Verkaufspreis der durchschnittlichen Maßeinheit wegen der Deflation im Rohstoff kostet und verzögert, wenn sie seine neue Produktionsanlage in Inner Mongolia abschließt. Jene Verzögerungen sind meistens das Resultat zurück trimmen, auf seine Investitionen, zum der Anlage abzuschließen, um gegenwärtige Betriebe abzustützen.
Ich denke, dass vierteljährliche Resultate des Lotos zeigen, dass es in der Lage gewesen ist, diesen Druck seit einer 39% Zunahme des Großhandelsumsatzes effektiv abzuschwächen und die Betriebs-Leistungsfähigkeits-Gewinne starke Finanzleistung ergaben.
Seit jene vierteljährlichen Resultate am 16. November 2009 freigegeben wurden, hat die Firma 500 Verträge (zusätzlich zu den 300, die sie bereits hatte), mit Drogespeichern in Peking gesichert, um im Freiverkehr gehandelte Medizin (OTC) zu liefern, in einen neuen Führer holte, um die OTC Abteilungsexpansion voranzugehen und erklärte Sprache betreffend seine Unternehmensstruktur, die vorher Augenbrauen der Investoren angehoben hatte. Die Firma, wie viele in China, ist eine Dachgesellschaft und wird als solcher strukturiert, zum Auslandsinvestition zuzulassen. Sie fährt auch fort, in seiner Produktrohrleitung zu investieren.
Es ist wahrscheinlich, dass Verkäufe in 2009 niedriger als 2008 sind, aber die verbesserte Leistungsfähigkeit und die Rentabilität teilt mir mit, dass dieses eine Firma ist, die sein internes Haus im Auftrag wird und zum zukünftigen Wachstum fertig erhält. Ich finde dieses sehr aufmunternde als Investor.
Ich würde mich empfehlen, auf Lotos pharmazeutisch fürs Erste zu halten. Die Wachstumaussichten sind gerade zu gut und trotz einiger widriger Winde, ist dieser Vorrat ein starkes Ausführendes gewesen. Plus, Anteile sind Schmutz - billig auf einer Schätzungbasis. Einnahmen pro Aktie des Monats Trailing-12 Verdienstpotenzial sind $0.41 und erbringen eine PET-Mehrfachverbindungsstelle von nur 4. Sitzen Sie einfach festes, während dieser Vorrat schwankt und in anderen sechs Monaten Sie Sie taten sehr froh sind. Es ist nicht unvernünftig, zu denken, dass könnte im nächsten Jahr sich verdoppeln teilt.
Dieses ist ein großer Vorrat für Teilnehmer zu PRO SmallCapInvestor gewesen, wer meinen Sonderbericht las. In meinem Sonderbericht: Die 10 rentabelsten Bagatellaktien für 2010, dort sind 9 andere in hohem Grade rentable Kleinkappe Aktien wert Ihre Aufmerksamkeit. Tatsächlich bildeten fünf von ihnen sie in meine vorbildliche Mappe und Sie empfangen wöchentliche Updates auf ihnen als Teilnehmer.

*** I sehen noch ungeheures langfristiges Potenzial, in China zu investieren. Sure gibt es Höhen und Tiefen wie letzte Woche, aber im Laufe der Zeit, verdienen Investoren viel Geld auf chinesischen Aktien.

By Justin Kuepper · Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010
Sinobiopharma, Inc. (SNBP), which aims to become the next Teva Pharmaceuticals (TEVA) by competing in the Chinese pharmaceutical market alongside competitors like Lotus Pharmaceuticals (LTUS),announced government coverage of its flagship product.
Sinobiopharma, Inc. (“Sinobiopharma” or, the “Company”) (OTC Bulletin Board: SNBP) is pleased to announce that the Chinese government has approved the Company’s flagship product, KuTai (Cisatracurium Besylate), for coverage under National Basic Medical Insurance, Employment Injury Insurance and Maternity Insurance (2009 Edition).
KuTai (Cisatracurium Besylate), on the market since 2006, had not been covered by any medical insurance before the Chinese government granted approval for its inclusion on the list of insured drugs on November 27, 2009. Before coverage was approved, patients who chose KuTai, a lasted generation skeletal muscle relaxant used for surgery, did so at their own expense. National Basic Medical Insurance will now provide for patients to be reimbursed for any use of KuTai. Under China’s healthcare reform plan, more than 90 percent of its urban population of 600 million will be covered by National Basic Medical Insurance by the end of 2010.
Typically, the Chinese government observes the performance of new generation drugs in the market for several years to ensure their safety and efficacy profile is well established before considering them for inclusion on the list of insured pharmaceuticals. Following Sinobiopharma’s launch of this latest generation of muscle relaxant in China in 2006, KuTai has became one of the market growth leaders and is now used in more than 1,000 hospitals located in almost every province.
“We are very pleased that KuTai has finally been approved for insurance coverage,” said Dr. Lequn Lee Huang, Sinobiopharma CEO. “All of KuTai’s competitor drugs, earlier generation muscle relaxants, were covered by insurance. But even with this reimbursement disadvantage, KuTai still managed to gain significant market share because of its greater efficacy and superior safety profile. KuTai’s inclusion on the list of insured drugs eliminates this reimbursement disadvantage. We expect the provision of insurance coverage will drive a significant increase in KuTai’s sales volume and further gains in market share.”

I also recommended Lotus Pharmaceuticals (OTC BB: LTUS) on January 25 when it was trading with a trailing PE of just 4. I wrote, "Just sit tight while this stock fluctuates and in another six months you'll be very glad you did. It's not unreasonable to think that shares could double in the next year."
And fluctuate shares have, falling to $1.40 and providing a nice entry point (or a place to add to an existing position). At this level the stock is trading with a PE of just 3.4, dirt cheap even for a highly speculative over-the-counter traded pharmaceutical stock like Lotus. Look for shares to move higher in the near-term and much higher in the long-term.
The China bears are missing the key points on why China represents such a compelling investment right now. Domestic consumption is growing in China leading consumer spending to rise 16.9% in 2009. Not to mention, China's government is proactively dealing with monetary policy before inflation becomes an issue (U.S., eat your heart out). Finally, China is extremely friendly to foreign investors, despite its Communist government. And Beijing rewards investors that invest capital by having no capital gains tax, no estate tax, and no property tax.
The recent sell-off has left Chinese stocks trading at dirt cheap valuations, despite their strong growth prospects. Right now is the time to take positions in quality Chinese stocks at attractive valuations.
