http://otce.finra.org/DLDeletions
Man I had such high hopes for this stock.
I'm so so so glad I didn't go long like I wanted to.
Would have lost my ass.
This is the same reason I don't like any research phase drug or equipment stock. 1 or 2 bad results and here you are a year later
KIPS quits. Liquidation
Kips Bay Medical Announces an Orderly Wind Down of Operations With the Termination of eMESH I Clinical Feasibility Trial
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/kips-bay-medical-announces-orderly-124920807.html
The Company cannot determine with certainty the amount of any liquidating distribution to its stockholders and it is possible that there will be no liquidating distribution to stockholders. The amount of any cash distributed to its stockholders will depend upon, among other things, the Company's current liquid assets offset by its known and unknown liabilities as well as operating expenses associated with the dissolution.
Yep, KIPS is finished as it failed. Sub-penny coming.
Wow, KIPS, $0.045, down 80%, or $0.16 !
so why you think OPK ceo is buying every month since it was $4.00 and still buying at $14.00 It's called FAITH
Maybe nowhere else to go for money.
News out. The company posted an 8-K on it's website. Staffing and salary reductions. Company estimates the cost savings will fund operations til the end of 2015

Also gave a feasibility study update. They expect to reach goal of treated patients by the end of Janusry 2015 and follow-up angiograms by October 2015.
LONG wait for any significant FDA news.
ClinicalTrials.gov updated record on trial November 18, 2014
http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01676376?term=kips&rank=2
In the companies defense they basically achknowledged several months prior on their conference call that they would be delisted.
I see this as a buying opportunity.
Delisting
No Communication by management
Manny where are you?
A couple of big sells sent this crashing. Where oh where is the bottom?
wow moving up on such light volume today
Funny Yahoo finance still has a price target of $3.00. Nothing I guess has really changed other than not maintaining a buck a share and management decided the Otc route over a R/S.
It stopped trading on NASDAQ yesterday and resumed trading on the OTCBB today, I am assuming this is the reason for the drop.
Why the drop here? R/S coming or moving to OTC? TIA
this stock is a prove SA articles are worthless
Appears OTC market is inline for $KIPS. A R/S would need shareholders approval, and I believe today is the deadline for a request by the company. A R/S wouldn't make sense, would be at least a 3 to 1 split and would leave nearly 10m outstanding shares. Nice to see insiders still acquiring shares despite what's happening.
Insiders are buying...
http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=63511603&symbol=KIPS
So possibly a reverse split coming?!
If you read the release, they have until the 10th of September to request a hearing....which they state they dont anticipate doing. We have to assume that the share price already reflects the delisting
On September 3, 2014, Kips Bay Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) received a Staff Delisting Determination letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) notifying the Company that it had not timely regained compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market, as set forth in Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), and that, as a result, the Company’s common stock would be subject to delisting unless the Company timely requests a hearing before the NASDAQ Hearings Panel. Should the Company fail to request a hearing before the NASDAQ Hearings Panel by September 10, 2014 (which the Company does not anticipate requesting), the Company’s common stock will be suspended at the opening of business on September 12, 2014 and a Form 25-NSE will be filed by NASDAQ with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which will formally remove the Company’s common stock from listing on NASDAQ thereafter.
They are currently in the process of getting delisted. I expect an official announcement from the company this coming week, as I believe they only had until sept 5th
Does anybody know anything more on whether they are going to be delisted?
Delist
Fidelity has message on there site that "Deficient: Issuer failed to meet NASDAQ continued requirmentsd" when you get price quote
Yes, unfortunately that is the case for many people
that's why i'm out today. hopes for a last p&d to reduce my losses but it was time to turn the page.
And no update on how the company plans to address that so far. So I guess it's delistment, unless we hear an update this week
september 2nd. that's why the price keeps going down imo.
When is this scheduled to get delisted? It's on the nasdaq, so they must meet the $1 or higher rule. It's been under $1 for awhile now, so either they reverse split or get delisted. Unless some bit pps boosting news comes out to propel this over $1 asap. Does anyone know when the deadline is for kips to get above $1?
Thanks for the date update. Seems someone pushing stock down???? With all the news and aprovals to expand testing could not of gone fwd if not under control??? IMO Buying opertunity
I should have noted that the message I posted was copied from the yahoo board. More importantly that comment by the company was from january 2011. It is quite old and my hope is that they have overcome those issue.
We have to wait for more data. I will be picking up some shares in the future.
Thanks for the info. So I see it all depends on the current ongoing testing phase. Kips is also on the nasdaq, I wonder when they face delistment, as they've been under $1 for quite so time
I think messages like this on the yahoo board do not help. I am currently not holding any kips, but will in the future.
Can anyone tell me why this stock is so low? .38 pps seems really cheap. Why is it so low?
Pump was dumped quickly and on today's earnings we see where the company really is.
Great news today.

Manny Villafaña, Chairman and CEO of Kips Bay Medical Inc. (Nasdaq:KIPS), announced that on July 17, 2014, Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City performed its first implant of an eSVS® Mesh. This implant was performed as part of the Kips Bay Medical eMESH I clinical feasibility trial currently being conducted for the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in a number of preeminent cardiac surgery centers in both Europe and the United States.
The procedure was performed by Nirav C. Patel, M.D., Associate Chairman of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital, who commented, "We are excited to be enrolling patients in the eMESH I clinical feasibility study. The eSVS Mesh device, developed by Kips Bay Medical, is very easy to use and fits well within our normal CABG procedures. Saphenous vein grafts are the achilles heel of bypass surgery and I am hopeful this new device will give us the upper hand in improving outcomes for thousands of patients suffering from coronary artery disease."
Mr. Villafaña added "We are gratified by the continued interest and support of leading cardiac surgeons like Dr. Patel and are excited to be able to work with Lenox Hill Hospital, one of the truly outstanding clinical research facilities here in the United States."
The eMESH I clinical feasibility trial is a multi-center, randomized study of external saphenous vein support using Kips Bay Medical's eSVS Mesh in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the initial safety and performance of the eSVS Mesh for use as an external saphenous vein graft (SVG) support device during CABG surgery. The Company expects to enroll up to 120 patients at eleven European and seven U.S. sites and further expects to use the data from this study as the basis for the filing of a request for an investigational device exemption (IDE) to perform a pivotal trial in the United States.
About the eSVS Mesh
The eSVS Mesh is designed to be fitted like a sleeve on the outside of saphenous vein grafts to strengthen SVGs used in coronary artery bypass graft surgery. By strengthening the SVG and preventing the damaging expansion of the vein graft, the Company hopes to reduce or prevent the resulting injury which can lead to SVG failure and potentially costly and complicated re-interventions for patients undergoing CABG surgery. To strengthen an SVG, the eSVS Mesh is manufactured from nitinol wire which gives the eSVS Mesh considerable strength, while remaining highly flexible and kink-resistant. Kips Bay is currently conducting a feasibility trial for the FDA, the objective of which is to demonstrate the initial safety and performance of the eSVS Mesh. Kips Bay expects to enroll up to 120 patients at eleven European and seven U.S. sites and further expects to use the data from this study as the basis for the filing of a request for an IDE to perform a larger pivotal study which is required to demonstrate clinical effectiveness and support a request for approval to sell the eSVS Mesh in the United States. Additional information about the eSVS Mesh and the Company's feasibility trial are available at the Company's website at www.KipsBayMedical.com and in the Company's most recent annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Back into the $.50 pps range again today.
Low volume, but a nice jump, since buyers were pushing the pps up.
Looking for some positive news to push the pps higher.
RE: SA article
Please provide link.
Thanks
SA blog article written at the same time as pump newsletters. coincidence?
We are in the middle of the annual summer doldrums. The pps is not likely to go much lower unless we get terrible news.
Trading/consolidating very nicely here in the mid dollar range. The wall of .53 is next.
I also scooped up some $.49's yesterday.
Looking for a base around $.50 and a rebound soon.
