(NEW YORK)--ScripsAmerica, Inc. (OTCBB:SCRC), a leading provider of a range of specialty prescription and over the counter pharmaceuticals and medical supplies, may be setting up for a strong rally after a volatile week of price and volume.
SCRC stock experienced a sharp and steep drop earlier this week on stronger than normal volume. Following this event, a number of rumors swirled that there may be some sort of operational issue with their pharmaceutical business, or that a large note holder may had hit the exit button.
Following the sharp decline the Company issued a statement Thursday stating, 'ScripsAmerica (SCRC) knows of no reason relating to its operations that would account for the recent unusual volume and price activity in its stock. The Company has not provided any updates to the extensive discussion of the Company's business as presented in the Company's investor presentation as available on the Company's website, as well as other public disclosure that can be found on the website or filed with the SEC. Furthermore, the Company fully intends to reiterate all of the comments and disclosures at the upcoming 2nd Annual Growth Capital Expo in Las Vegas on Monday, April 13, 2015.'
This news helped alleviate fear that the sharp decline had been due to some operational issues, hence it is probably more likely related to some issue with a current note holder. If true, which remains to be seen, this could set SCRC up for possible sharp spike of recovery as the coming week could provide several catalysts that could increase wild swings within the stock.
Coming Events Next Week
As mentioned in their statement above, SCRC plans to present at the 2nd Annual Growth Capital Expo in Las Vegas this Monday, April 13, 2015. If the Company can show through public disclosure that no material changes were the cause for this weeks sharp drop, that could provide a real boast of confidence, which could spell for a very active start for the company trading week.
The next big event to occur next week that could spur a snap-back in the stock is their fiscal 2014 financial earnings. If the Company can show strong earnings growth, which is expected, and better yet provide that guidance remains strong for fiscal 2015, this weeks drop in share price could spell a spring time Christmas gift for traders.
