MIVT News Investrend Affiliate SISM Research 'Morning Note' Reiterates MIV Therapeutics 'Buy/4' Rating, $2.50 Target Valuation, Citing Plans To Introduce New Products In Key Global Markets Next Quarter
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--(Investrend Research Syndicate) Ernest C. Schlotter, a senior analyst
with Investrend affiliate SISM Research and a four star analyst
according to StarMine, has reiterated his "Buy/4" Rating and $2.50
12-month Target Valuation for MIV Therapeutics, Inc. (OTCBB: MIVT) in a “Morning
Note.”
“Last Thursday MIVT announced that Biosync now
has a portfolio of seven new CE Mark-certified cardiovascular stents and
related products that can be sold in Europe and other key markets around
the world. The launch of Biosync products opens the door for MIVT’s
HAp-coated DES and other associated interventional cardiology products,
once CE Mark-certified.
“Biosync has strong relations in India and
around the world with established distribution networks. The angioplasty
market in India ($60M) offers huge opportunities for MIVT. Approx.
70,000 angioplasties are performed every year in India, accounting for
only 0.007% of the one billion strong ageing populations. MIVT will
primarily targeting the DES market outside the U.S. is estimated to
reach $4 billion in 2008.”
SISM Research believes that the Biosync acquisition will help the
Company in a short time to realize the full potential of its earning
power and further drive its valuation. At a market valuation of only
$56M the Research Company believes that MIVT is significantly
undervalued.
MIV Therapeutics is paying SISM Research $2,250 per month over a
two-year period solely to ensure independent coverage."
