Record QTR 1 for Biotronik 2012!













Um, can we quantify what defines kick-ass?
For starters, total respective US and OUS sales growth vs. Q1 2011.

I think the poster said a kick-ass start for 'Biotronik' and maybe it was. Obviously, they are a smaller company, we all know this. So, it takes smaller chunks of revenue for them to have a 'kick ass' Q1. There is nothing wrong with that. Everyone starts somewhere.

On the flip side, obviously, it takes much bigger numbers for the Big 3 to have a 'kick-ass' quarter anytime BUT.... each time the Big 3 doesn't have a 'kick-ass' quarter you can be certain that some asses are getting kicked out! Like or not and say what you want but Bio is moving along and growing. Their revenues are creeping up, their numbers in the field are increasing and people are starting to take a 'look-see.'

Go ahead start slinging mud.... they pay docs, their reliability numbers are eschewed, they lack coverage, they lack technology..... Yada yada yada. They have heard it all but yet there they are picking your pockets.

Ok..so where are the #'s to prove this blah blah blah????? Anyone can blah blah blah but show some proof...should be easy right? Not like we're talking about big #'s here..should be pretty easy to calculate right? Show us!

I did not say that I myself know anything about the #'s that are being touted nor do I really care. However, I do think it funny to see folks get their panties all knotted up over something as little as a poster, maybe even a Biotronik employee, touting a record month. Again, I don't care if it is true or not. If it is, good for them.
 






Tell me exactly how their reliability numbers are skewed? I love how people think the MHRA in Europe and the FDA just give small companies a free pass!

It's BS to see the 3 American fat and bloated companies say that their reliability data are so much better than BIOs when they play Blythe same rules as everyone else. Plain and simple!

Then don't make stupid comments about increased revenue if you don't know. You get called out then you back peddle...what the hell?

Nancy - I wasn't the one that made the comments. I did not say they had a record Q1. My comment was simply IF they had a Q1... good for them. Somebody is a little testy.

Nancy, I stand corrected. I did mention 'revenues creeping up' but that was nothing more than a simple assumption from the previous poster's comment regarding a 'record Q1'.

Didn't realize this was a legal deposition.
