SUTU...went fishing and hooked a few shares near closing...news today was carried by Reuters and was totally awesome!
correction: the last insider buying was around 8m shares NOT half million. my bad. the company also have $750k cash. with $23m from Abbott the company has around $24m in cash. they have seven patents...49 employees. .09 sp is very cheap IMO.
3yr chartdaily/weekly:
yes I guess. now time to move up :))
enjoy
last hour should be a good one....hope everyone loaded up!
Yep...but we hadn't a 0,08 cents ps settlement yesterday...Can't understand it, this should be at 0,14 at least (at the very least I'd say).
Very interesting quick drop, bought small 0.095.
Load them up here!
Gap from this morning closing?
Enjoy
good point. Need more DD on this one. But sure looks promising !! GOOD LUCK TO YOU :)
oh it will go....they shook it out now the smart money is entering here.
looks like you might be right about that afternoon run
the stall is due to certain brokers like aturd restricting online buying....a good sign to me after GREAT NEWS. brokers trying to slow the MOMO of this morning. IMO this is a great place to buy because they will run it this afternoon. this one has a long way to go UP! just cooling off :)
Don't know what's going on...but I doubt they need money. They just got 23 MM $...Today only 100k in play....???
haven't watched the L2 closely on this one but I think the company needed some money and raised capital with today's PR.. :/ Saw VFIN on the offers....could mean nothing or could mean something. Nevertheless, with today's news we got a precent for future cases if there are any planned. -Gecko
havent done a proper DD yet. but I am quite suprised to see sp stalling here after todays news. I was expecting to see high 20s today. i was wrong I guess. will wait and see. GL
nice...do u kno if there are other infringers out there??? What is the company planning next????? :) TY
OS is 271m, insiders hold over 50%. Institutional holding is 27% per Reuters.
Also there was insider buying last week (500K shares).
Saw the POP...but after doing the #'s... the BASE! value of SUTU is only .08! 23MM award negated by a BLOATED! OS(~271MM..10Q). Wayyyy OVERPRICED! at this point.
GLTA!!
ahh looks like VFIN offering here ;(
Anyone knows the outstanding on this one? If they are other infringers this thing could be headed much higher....Winning against ABOTT IS HUGE..setting a precedent for any other potential infringers...Reminds me of PTSC from pennies to dollar....... -Gecko
is this a case of premature jumping in, showing weakness?
Thanks, I agree!!
think it will rest a bit then take off again....cross lic with abbott and the 23 mil settlement makes for a nice bottom line for SUTU. I am hoping to see this much higher then .22...would like to see us in the high .20's- low 30's today and then a slow steady growth in PPS over the weeks ahead. this is BIG for a pinky IMO
Hey legal, got some at .12 this morning, where do you see this heading? TIA
yep i grabbed it premarket....its a money maker from here :)

In addition, Abbott has agreed to pay Sutura $23 million as part of the settlement agreement.
"We are pleased to have reached this agreement with Abbott and resolved this patent infringement dispute with them," said David Teckman, President and CEO of Sutura.

SUTU (.08) Sutura Continues Successful Human Trials of SuperStitch EL in Multiple Human Procedures to Suture PFO's
Monday, October 22 2007 8:34 AM, EST Market Wire "US Press Releases "
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, CALIFORNIA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 10/22/07 -- Sutura, Inc. ("Sutura") (OTCBB: SUTU), an innovative developer of minimally invasive vascular suturing devices, today announced the successful human use of the SuperStitch EL in three patients to deliver a suture to the septum that separates the left and right atriums of the heart. Dr Michael Mullen placed the sutures into the septum to close defects known as a Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO).
The three successful procedures were performed at the Eskisehir Osmangazi University Hospital in Eskisehir, Turkey by Dr. Michael Mullen, of the Royal Brompton Hospital , London and Dr. Omer Goktekin who interned with Dr. Mullen at Royal Brompton. The SuperStitch EL was placed into the PFO using fluoroscopic and Intra-Cardiac Echocardiography (ICE) guidance (Siemens Cypress system). The suture was placed into the two flaps that make up the septum and then drawn together. The patients had all previously suffered strokes from their PFO's.
Dr. Mullen commented, "These cases confirm that we can accurately identify the septal structures and position the suture in each septum. We also made significant advances in the technique and learning curve. With any new procedure developing the technique is as critical as developing the system. These cases and the follow up results of the case in Georgia demonstrate that we can place a suture in the secundum and primum septums and close a PFO. The significance to the treatment of Structural Heart Disease is immense; now we are able to close a PFO without implanting a mechanical device into the heart, and eliminate the need for lifelong medication regiments."
Dr. Goktekin commented, "This was an exciting and unique opportunity for myself and our institution to participate in what will be a historical advance in cardiology." Dr. Goktekin added, "One of the greatest advantages of this technology is the ability to perform the procedure and not suffer the complications associated with device placement."
Also present for the case was Dr. Anthony Nobles, Chief Scientific Officer at Sutura. "We are honored to work with such a great team and it was the perfect environment to expand our clinical experience," noted Nobles. "We incorporated several improvements learned from our initial experience in Tbilisi and they performed beyond our expectations. Additionally, we substantially improved our learning curve on the deployment and imaging which will allow us to bring this product to market."
Dave Teckman, Sutura's President and CEO added, "This is a significant step to changing the gold standard of leaving a device of any kind behind after the procedure. We believe in time this will eliminate the need for these invasive technologies and mark the introduction of a new era in the treatment of structural heart disease. Accomplishing this is a primary goal of ours at Sutura."
