1.  Re: EFD Facts Count-- Not Cheerleading--LOL!! 
Prof, calling you out on spin and misinformation and adding a tag line about considering THOR [which I have owned for many years] to be a good investment is not cheerleading. As...

2.  Re: HTWR Netted About $70 MILLION From Shelf Reg 
Professor I suggest you do better due diligence and get your facts straight. Try going to original sources such as SEC documentation and you will understand that the underwriters...

3.  Re: Europe Represents THOR&&39;s Current Problems 
Wrong again, Prof. The over allotment is included in the 1.77 million shares of the aggregate underwriting. Read the SEC filings.

4.  Re: HTWR Netted About $70 MILLION From Shelf Reg 
Wrong! More misinformation from Toutmato (P4E). Show me the money. At 9/30 HTWR had about $31 million in cash (which included the sweetheart secondary in the fall), less quarterly cash burn of probably $5 mil+. plus $59 mil...

5.  Re: HTWR Netted About $70 MILLION From Shelf Reg 
Wrong! As noted in my other post, HTWR sold 1,767,900 shares at $35.50. This includes the underwriters allotment. Subtract about 5% for the underwriters and...

6.  Re: Europe Represents THOR&&39;s Current Problems 
1,767,900 shares x 35.50= $62.76 million then subtract about 5% for underwriting fees results in <$60 million in proceeds.

7.  Re: Europe Represents THOR&&39;s Current Problems 
Prof. you have problems, not THOR. Dollar translation will have a minimal impact on THOR's bottom and top lines, especially with DT driven sales in the U.S. HTWR is the one whose micro...

8.  Re: The Word Is Spreading 
Toutmato (aka P4E), the demand is not huge,it is the supply that is small. An override of this size is easily absorbed and pushed out the door for a profit by the...

9.  Re: At least no insider sales reported into the high volume run up 
Actually, the bullish sign was Crump purchasing more shares in early January. Always like to see management eat their own cooking.

The way the stock was dropped to accomodate this trade it appears to just be institutional accumulation before the earnings are out (or more cynically before an analyst's report...

Frankly, I do not care that much about politics, but am glad to see a budget that is relatively honest and increases the FDA's budget. Hopefully devices and drugs will be...

12.  Re: A Very Tough Market Today But MCSD Shines 
THOR's stock price was down about 17% in 2009, while AAPL was up 147%--this is just sector rotation, profit taking in tech by attention challenged traders. (I have...

Now that you are on the correct side of the trade P4E, I suggest you resist your manic urges (pumping now instead of bashing), turn off your screen and revisit THOR in a year, by which time you...

15.  Re: Technicals??? 
I am more into fundamentals than technicals, but there is major resistance at 31 to 32.50. Suspect we will finally punch through it this time.

16.  Re: Results and beyond 
which is why holders are not converting. If THOR is acquired before 5/11, the buyer would have to payoff the premium. I do not view this as problematic.

17.  Re: Results and beyond 
P4E, I certainly did not state any such thing. According to the footnote in the 10-K, "If the holders elect to convert, we may at our option deliver shares of common stock or pay the...

18.  Re: Results and beyond 
The convertible bond is redeemable by the company on 5/16/11 (I assume at par). I believe 7 out of 65 million shares is about 11% not 20%. Not sure what kind of napkin you use to calculate bottom line on earnings, but it...

With regard to "beyond" 2011 should be a very exciting year for THOR--sales will ramp up due to expanded DT market and expanded coverage by in surers...
