A good mate of mine is a senior engineer at a medical equipment engineering firm. Same sort of thing that Holmes' Theranos made but theirs isn't as ambitious and works.
Over the last 7 or so years the share price has gone from about £2 to over £80 and he purchased an awful lot of them when they were £2 (worth a good chunk of £1m now).
When I look at the firms accounts its tangible net worth is about £50m. The market capitalisation is nearer £600m.
I can't make it out - basically share buyers are willing to pay £600m for a company worth £50m. I guess its down to profits which are about 10% of turnover and the fact that medical shares are booming.
If I had some of their shares I would think about selling them before their bubble bursts.
