We author research on micro & small cap healthcare companies.

Our Objective

Bank-led research in the healthcare sector is predominantly written for and distributed to, a sophisticated institutional audience.  Our research is intended to be accessible, written in a language that is understandable, with an actionable investment thesis, and distributed freely to the investing public.

With a focus on micro / small cap companies, we are inherently covering risky names.  We will make aggressive calls. We will not always be right. We will own our successes and our failures.

“We try to make money off our research, both by being compensated directly by a company and also by owning the securities we endorse. Not all of our research will be company-sponsored, but make no mistake about it, if a company is not paying us now, we are trying to get paid in the future. If indeed there is a financial relationship with a company we cover, this will be clearly disclosed in our research reports. For those who want to discount the quality of our research because it is sometimes directly paid-for by the company, as opposed to being paid indirectly through banking fees, no problem, we’re simply not for you.”

“We try to simplify and translate a technical story into a palatable investment thesis, without doing a disservice to the science. In doing so, we believe our research should appeal to both generalist and deep-science investors.”
