Advanced Medical Solutions – CEO argues “confidence in… long term growth prospects is stronger than ever”… so it’s a current profit warning (natch!)

Describing itself as a “world-leading specialist in tissue-healing technologies” Advanced Medical Solutions (AMS) states that it “announces a trading update following recent events that have impacted financial expectations for the year ending 31 December 2023”. Now, why don’t I think this is going to be “impacted” in a positive way?…

Too much Dignity love...and then I consider being a medical geek

First a few words on Dignity (DTY) where I highlighted my deep caution with the ‘the UK’s only listed provider of funeral related services’ back in 2017 and 2018.  The company is still facing a regulatory enquiry by the FCA with more thoughts expected in the third quarter of this year.  As I noted back in November here, there are many other industry changes also around, particularly the rise of cheaper alternatives.  Today’s full-year numbers may have seen a rise in sales (sadly of course assisted by the Covid-19 challenges) but underlying profitability is still sharply down as the heightened competitive realities continue to impact.  The shares might be up 5% to over 630p today but it remains a strong avoid for me.

In terms of having the comfort of a stock which appears to be a safe pair of hands on its daily chart, it would be difficult to find a situation that looks more robust than what we are looking at over the past couple of years at Advanced Medical Solutions.
