Natera going with an IPO?


Another company to short. NIPT is so last years news. A commodity oh wait the price the insurance companies are willing to pay just dropped again. Sorry but Sequenom really stunk up the market. Liars and thieves make up the market. Sorry boys, but one trick pony's just dont attract the investor anymore. What makes Natera think they have a story worth selling? I dont get it.

One trick ponies like Axovant Sciences? IPO happened today and went up 99%! They won't have a product to market for another 3-5 years! Natera already has multiple products to market with multiple products in the pipeline...... that's a lot better story. Link below to the non believers.

There are a lot of "salty" disgruntled people on this site, as you know of course. Most are miserable because they don't like their boss or they aren't getting the job done. Some have quit or been fired. To make themselves feel better, they run to CP and trash any and all companies they've failed at and Natera announcing a potential IPO gives them another reason to throw stones. Now, we can assume some of it is from competitors just trolling around bored in an office. Can't say I haven't done that before. At any rate, the IPO is exciting. The technology and pipeline with oncology is exciting. The enhancements to our suite of current products is exciting. NIPT may be a big field with a lot of players, but we are doing things differently and physicians see that. It makes marketing our products relatively easy scientifically. The hard part is all the other red tape, logistic stuff. But, it keeps it interesting. Let the haters hate...it always works itself out in the end.
 



Of course you are. It's a hard sell and you are used to dropping off samples and working 10-2....no worries, you'll find a contract Pharma gig no problem. Best of luck!

And this is from our dear management everyone.........yeah, don't try and work on the problem just keep doing what you've been doing. Best of luck!

Can't tell if this is the moron AD from the Midwest who can't understand why the reps weren't jumping for joy over the IPO and there outstanding chance to cash in an average of 750 vested shares (newest expansion much less and tenured reps max of 1500) which means best case $30,000 before 38% capitol gains tax, and that's if the stock is at $20.00 after the mandatory 6 month hold.

It might be the Fred Flintstone looking Michigan RD who still brags on his great success selling carrier screen tests for the 90 days he was actually a rep before his connections got him promoted. Hey BM, why don't you ever remember to tell everyone about the $25.00 max out of pocket that was in place when you had all of your "success" selling Horizon? or, tell everyone how many other people you beat out in interviews for the RD promotion? Hard to loose a race when you are the only competitor wouldn't you agree? If PE ever stops too quickly your head is going to go right up his butt. Your entire team hates you. In Kansas City all they did was rag on you behind your back. You are a joke.

Or maybe its PG. What a little troll he is. Keep drinking the Koop-aid.

This place just sux.

You actually made a compelling case. All the way till the very end. You write with some degree of intelligence and then you completely discredit yourself with "sux". You wrote all those words in their full length with little to no spelling mistakes and on the very last word you decided to pull the plug on literacy. Did you get in a hurry? Maybe spelling out the full word would take too long? I mean, now I just think you are in high school with a very sharp understanding of the politics in play at Natera, some how? I don't know, either way, you blew it. Maybe that's how your sales calls go? You have the doctors until the very end, and then you blow it. Bad numbers. Bad paycheck. Bad attitude. Just quit already before you are apart of the first "realignment" coming soon.

JHC............is this the same manager who continues to try to lift everyone's spirits by promoting their product / service ? Listen, not an employee. We used your product before and liked it and when my wife became pregnant again we asked about it. Her obgyn said they discontinued it as it was not a very good test. Her obgyn belongs to a rather large practice with 7 others.
 



One thing to note about Natera's growth story:

Revenues have been flat for the past three quarters - 46.274M --> 49.884 M --> 47.435 M. These numbers are taken from page 79 of the prospectus. Maybe this quarter will improve with the sales expansion, but this may be tempered by the various issues associated with the V2 launch.

Some people will surely benefit from the IPO: (from page 148 of the prospectus)

Employment Arrangements with Immediate Family Members of Our Executive Officers and Directors

Daniel Rabinowitz, a brother of Matthew Rabinowitz, our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman, has been employed by us since July 2004. Daniel Rabinowitz serves as our General Counsel and Secretary. During our fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2013 and 2014 and the three months ended March 31, 2015, Daniel Rabinowitz had total cash compensation, including base salary, bonus and other compensation, of $212,157, $225,000, $603,702 and $1,032,305 respectively.

Daniel Rabinowitz's compensation level was determined, in part, by reference to similarly situated employees who were not related to an executive officer or director. He was also eligible for equity awards on the same general terms and conditions as applicable to other similarly situated employees who were not related to an executive officer or director.

FYI he earned more last quarter than our CFO made the entirety of 2014. On page 136, it is reported that our CFO earned $595,463 in total compensation in 2014.

Guess it benefits to have a law degree and a brother who is a rocket scientist?
 















You guys are all crazy!! Natera is going to be as big as BMS one day! The relationships that have been formed and partnerships with huge hospital and research centers around the world is by far ahead of any other lab out there. This is huge news with oncology and our IPO will be one of the most successful in the history of IPO's for biotechnology. Trust me. This is a great place to be at this exact moment. I just hope some of you can hold on to your jobs long enough to benefit from it.

Obviously pot must be legal in your state as you're either stoned or just stupid. Not a chance junior. Take your Koolaid BS somewhere else. Oncology will eat you alive. You'll see soon enough.

Shut your mouth you loser. It's plain and simple. You are old. You have no career. You have nothing. You don't know anything. You think you do. Simple as that.
