Why this is a hot stock
- New Corporate headquarters and cryogenic research and storage laboratory in Las Vegas will open the first week of October 2009. “We anticipate processing of stem cells in the new lab to commence sometime in the fourth quarter of 2009. We are confident that this new facility will assist Cord Blood America to become a giant in the cryogenic storage sector,” said Mr. Schissler.
- The new facility will significantly reduce the cost of sales while increasing gross profits, because we no longer have to outsource the storage and because of its proximity to one of the nation’s busiest airports.
- Company reduced its debt by a total of $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2009. Total debt eliminated in 2009 is $8.7 million.
