Ekso Bionics Holdings Inc (EKSO)

[DFH84]

The articles and videos speak to how good the product is, and the positive influence they have on patients. This is good to raise awareness as to what EKSO is accomplishing, but in itself is not a key indicator of a good investment. An investor should be looking at the company fundamentals in detail, and taking emotion out of the equation before making an investment decision. To do otherwise is financially irresponsible, and not much different from straight up gambling. At this point the companies sales are improving, but they are still not cash flow positive.

Every single article that comes out makes it more likely that people will begin to EXPECT exoskeleton as care. As soon as this happens, Insurance will be forced to reimburse these devices.

This may very well turn out to be true, but it is only speculation at this point. Insurance companies look at things in dollars and cents. If using an EKSO is proven to reduce the length of rehab time, thereby reducing the cost to the insurance provider over the length of rehabilitation, then insurance will jump on the wagon. I seriously doubt insurance would get onboard if they knew it would cost them more money in claims, regardless of public opinion.

All that being said, I am very pro EKSO, and in full disclosure, I am long. I am also underwater as I purchased before the last short attack that resulted in a 50% drop in share price.
