Does anyone know when that was broadcast?

You have a good memory BF.
You're probably like a lot of us long suffering shareholders and hoping that at last Blis is on the right track.However still a way to go yet.Once bitten.....
I sold out a while back and put the money into PEB but I still keep an eye on BLT.If things start to turn good I may look at getting back in at some point.But I will have to be pretty certain it's for real.
Good interest in the preference shares today. 6,000 sold around the $3 mark. Somebody trying to lock in the dividend payment?
Or perhaps the preference shares are looking more attractive as there is a chance the dividends won't be paid in cash but instead will be paid in shares in three years time? Am I right in thinking that option gets more and more attractive as the price of the preference shares increases?
I (well Google alerts really) found another couple of new products.
Ear Nose and Throat Shield
http://www.vitaminlife.com/product-e...+Throat+Shield
Probiotic Plus
http://www.ultraprobioticsplus.com/
The first one similar to Nature's Plus Ear Nose and Throat Shield. This version contains other ingredients and half the K12 (it contains 10 mg or 1 billion cells). It is also half the price. I have ordered 3 units. That is 150 days worth for $43 NZ. Much cheaper than the Throat Guard I have been buying.
Hey, that's good. I guess your optimism for the half years results just crept up a notch?
This is the VegLife one:

The Ultraprobiotics Plus site didn't seem to have a product image yet.
New products turning up every week or three certainly won't be hurting revenues!
It is excellent to see Frutatrom and Blis make such rapid progress selling the ingredient into this market. The pill makers are showing great enthusiam for getting the probiotics into new products in quick time. I wonder how many unique manufacturers exist and how many brands they operate? I am also wondering how many pill products will be launched containing K12 and/or M18 before the market is saturated and how long it will take to reach that point?
Yes, if they get to the point where it can be included in toothpaste then that would be significant. According to a report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc the global toothpaste market is to reach US $12.7 billion by 2012. Being included in even a tenth of a one percent of all toothpaste sold would significantly increase revenues for Blis...
The potential with beverages is too big for my little brain to cope with at this point. But then again, if they can't complete the technical work successfully my brain won't have to! That said, they have managed to achieve several of their technical challenges recently which gives me confidence e.g. no longer the need for the mouthwash before use and they have figured out how to include K12 in yoghurt.
The next few years will be interesting for Blis me thinks...
Hi Barney. I'm still holding plenty and hoping to at least come out even in the end. Things are definitely on the up and up. Barry has made a real difference - it's a pity he wasn't in the picture a few years earlier, before BLIS burnt through all their cash. I used to post a lot on this thread as you will remember, but the enthusiasm waned (along with the share price). Fortunately you will observe, however, a new bunch of keen BLIS fans have picked up the baton. I hope your non-BLIS investments are working out for you. BF.
Agree with you, Bobby, about market saturation. Also, we have to remember that the US is not usually a national market, but a whole collection of markets, so who knows what saturation means there.
On the possible news front, there are two other big ones in the air. Europe has been looked at for a while, and we might hear some more. But also India. It is a huge market that Blis have mentioned in passing a bit, suggesting that it is in their sights. And obviously more news on China would also be good, but they were saying that might be a while.
By the way, http://www.vitaglo.com/veglife.html suggests that VegLife (the new product) is connected with Solaray, who already sell Blis. As for Nature's Plus, that might suggest that Solaray have already been getting some sales with their first product if they have committed to another. You can't help thinking Solaray and LEF must be looking at M18, too.
