Q: hello 5i:
knowing you've been a fan of this company, from reading questions, can you comment on the fact that analyst earnings expectations have dropped from .23 (to year end 2025), 6 months ago, to currently .12. Has this changed your view of VHI?
thanks

5i Research Answer:
According to Bloomberg, adjusted EPS goes from 12c estimated this year to 31c estimated in 2026. With $94M in cash and cash flow growing, we remain comfortable with the stock.
Perhaps I should have been a bit more specific. I could see their projected earnings via Fastgraphs, but...................VHI has, shall we say, a not stellar (dismal?) record of meeting or beating earnings. So what are projections really worth?As earnings have been revised downward so much in the last 6 months, what suggests they won't be revised downward at the same rate? If you have confidence that earnings will not be revised downward, you must know something. Could you share that something?
thanks

Q: CLPBY - COLOPLAST A S AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPTS SPONSORED
Hi guys
I have followed Coloplast (Danish company I believe) for a very long time as a good safe, reliable health care play, with an interesting way to play the aging demographic trend. I notice also that it is near a 52 week low and has trended downward generally the last 5 years. Probably not a great chart.
And realizing you don't generally follow too closely European stocks, do you have any thoughts on the company, its products, whether it has a moat around its products (seem to be a bit sticky once people start to use them), and its current valuation? A buyor better stocks in the health care products area?
Much thanks
Stuart

Q: Hi,
Is it possible that the 10% drop in WELL on Friday would be related to their announced presentation at the 2025 Cantech Investment Conference on Oct 9 in Toronto? Any info about this presentation from your sources? Too much Up & downs with this stock. It's not only the market. I'm loosing patience.
Thanks and good weekend.

Q: My investment is down by about 25% and I am inclined to take a loss for tax purposes. When does the company next report? If it were you, would you wait for that before selling? Do you foresee any other catalyst that would change the fortunes for the share price in the next 30 days? Thank you for your excellent service.
Q: What is happening with CPH? Are you still keeping the faith? Sell? Thanks. Cheers
