Two things about this healthcare company - Medical Developments International


 
Medical Developments International Limited (ASX: MVP) has lately come into spotlight with many developments which include:
 
Distribution deal with McKesson Corp: The group has finalised a distribution deal with McKesson Corp. (largest healthcare supply chain in North America) for the distribution of “Space Chamber” anti-static Respiratory Devices in the United States of America. Further, McKesson has placed its first order for stock which has been said to be delivered by the end of December 2016.
 
Term sheet signed with CSIRO: The group had also signed a Term Sheet with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), to conduct a Research and Development program into new manufacturing technologies for pharmaceutical products.
 
The group had earlier reported that FY16 earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation were of the order of $3.4 million, which is up 29% over previous corresponding year, while revenues surged 33%. The group’s net profit after tax was $1.6 million. MVP had received $15 million in cash milestone payments and is debt free. MVP had also received regulatory approval and the marketing authorisation for the sale of Penthrox in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) sometime back, and in fact, the FY16 revenue growth was witnessed in support of the 147% growth in international sales of Penthrox in various key markets.

Despite the developments, the stock has fallen 10.19% in the last one month (as at November 11, 2016). It may be a little early to say about the growth prospects as the stock has been on a roller coaster for quite some time with many ups and downs.
