LOL....I had to research what you were agreeing with me on. I have many opinions.
Thanks for the accolades. I try to inform and teach smart investing strategies here. Most don't want to hear it,
On the flip side, his $ELTP broke to the upside last week.....but I don't buy or recommend penny stocks

Fung derf...Greetings and Salutations. I have read your conversation. I commend you on your high level of comm. And I wish to add you are correct. Your assessments are spot on. I do not have time to cont. best regards. PS. I addressed your counter party to your conversation with just a little of what's not good inv. peace

Hello, I must add you seem a bit confused. 1st the company is ISSUING more shares see OS in addition to that dilution there is a debt spiral to this business model I don't think you see yet. Layers of stacked debt that relies on factors out of their control. Those things under their control are not being cured. The investor get 5c net every Q. 6% 1/3 sub. for tax
So return is poor risk is high. In addition the whole sector. but mpw has too many issues to list. The guy you have been chatting with a FENG if memory serves. Understands clearly. REVs. declined. They lost money, they borrowed to pay div. payout is over 1,000% div. won't continue to conserve capital is my bet. This is a debt trap. good luck. no offense. just busy PK

A big reinforcement for MPW, is the 20% reduction in the short shares. If pessimists/sellers are reducing their positions, I don’t think they see a near term downturn

ELTP is teetering on the edge of support. Hard to tell why. Even MPW doesn't look awful here, but I'm still convinced this will tank one day without warning.

Don't feel bad. You aren't the first to find my mind a mystery.

To answer your question you didn't actually ask though, I had two majors and a minor in college.....and I've made my money through my investments for the last 30 years or so. Some wise, some not so much, some just poorly timed.....I read a lot of reports though.

You win, just shows all, how smart I am, hahaha. No partial credit on this test

I have a daughter with a Masters Degree in engineering, does that count for partial credit?
I hated accounting! Couldn't get through it in college. Never understood why balance sheets had to balance.

Only a perspective of psychology, most teachers would have a similar thought pattern. Im surprised, I thought I had you pegged. It was fun, either way.

Nope and nope. that's quite a variance though.

If I were guessing, your an engineer or an accountant, am I correct?

The bigger picture is much more telling. Either way, that’s why there are markets, I do respect and always work to understand the opposing position

I’ll ride this to 15-20 w increasing revs and better diversity. Loans will be reworked in 1.5-2 years for lower interest expense. I’ll be here for that time at a minimum unless there’s a short squeeze. Glta

Yeah. $9 is about where resistance currently is. Still not buying though. Its still a return of principle and I predict will fall fast one day. Hopefully you're watching.
In 2024 they missed their earnings projections by 26%.
They have taken on a bunch more debt to stay in existence.

Pricing Represents a Blended Coupon of 7.885%

Why do I do research , why not just wait for smarter people to the work. Ohh yaa, it’s because I bought at 3.5-4.5 while some believed it was too risky and am up 25-40%.

Oooops an upgrade to a price of $9.

Oooops an upgrade to a price of $9.

No time to research people who make me no money. But I wish you good fortune.

It's a bit funny that you tell me I need to look further into this company (you have no idea how much time I put into research), and yet you take a cursory look at a couple of my posts and decide you can put me in a box?
Go back and do your research on me, then you can discuss my pros and cons.

Like many modern day investors, having a short term look is not investing. That’s what advisors do, recommend a stock AFTER initial visible information comes out and a stock has moved 25% to 50%, then they recommend and start selling. Looking into large investors of mpw, they were there months ago and I assume, researched similar “stuff”. The balance of “investors use mutual funds and plod pleasantly along. I also like to understand personalities as they are genetic and seldom change. Gltl

Also know that the other penny stock I spoke about will soon (6 months prox) double or triple. I will again post to reinforce homework. All while watching indexes tread water w quality companies. Any index funds can do that, true risk takes homework. Looking back on old text, I did not see that you thought I was early, just wrong.

If I only invested by the visible easily accessible information, I would have the same perspective that you possess. Dig deeper before information becomes visible, that’s the way to change the odds in ones favor. Gltl

It has now broken through, good job.
I wasn't criticizing, I said you were too early. NOW you can gloat.
BTW, the earnings projections show very little growth and I know this company has been liquidating its assets to pay the dividend, which btw, keeps getting cut.
You may be right and I may be wrong, but I wouldn't touch this stock again.....

Business Wire8:00 AM (UTC-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) Feb 27, 2025

Medical Properties Trust, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter and Full-Year Results

Completed Approximately $5.5 Billion of Asset Monetization Transactions, Including February’s $2.5 Billion Senior Secured Notes Offering That Addresses All Debt Maturities Through 2026

Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (the “Company” or “MPT”) (NYSE: MPW) today announced financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2024, as well as certain events occurring subsequent to quarter end.


• Net loss of ($0.69) and Normalized Funds from Operations (“NFFO”) of $0.18 for the 2024 fourth quarter and net loss of ($4.02) and NFFO of $0.80 for the full-year 2024, all on a per share basis. Fourth quarter 2024 net loss includes approximately $415 million ($0.69 per share) in impairments and fair market value adjustments related to Prospect Medical Group (“Prospect”) and PHP Holdings (“PHP”);



• Completed a well-oversubscribed private offering of more than $2.5 billion of senior secured notes due in 2032 at a blended coupon rate of 7.885%, the proceeds from which will repay all debt maturities until October 2026 and result in expected combined cash and line of credit availability of $1.4 billion;



• Simultaneous to the senior secured notes offering, the Company amended its line of credit to share collateral with the new senior secured notes and received universal affirmation of the long-standing banking group’s approximate $1.5 billion commitment with a fully extended (at MPT’s option) maturity in June 2027;



• Commenced rent during the fourth quarter on a $50 million building improvement project in Idaho Falls, Idaho;



• Sold two post-acute properties and agreed to sell an additional general acute facility during January for combined proceeds of approximately $45 million; and



• Declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share in February.


Edward K. Aldag, Jr., Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We delivered on exactly what we said we would do in 2024 by using proceeds from transactions to accelerate repayment of debt maturities. Our global real estate portfolio remains attractive to sophisticated investors, as evidenced by our recent five-and-a-half times oversubscribed secured notes transaction. We improved the operator diversification of our portfolio and effectively addressed all debt maturities through 2026, positioning MPT to pursue a range of shareholder value initiatives in 2025.”

Included in the financial tables accompanying this press release is information about the Company’s assets and liabilities, operating results, and reconciliations of net (loss) income to NFFO, including per share amounts, all on a basis comparable to 2023 results.

PORTFOLIO UPDATE

Medical Properties Trust has total assets of approximately $14.3 billion, including $8.6 billion of general acute facilities, $2.4 billion of behavioral health facilities and $1.6 billion of post-acute facilities. As of December 31, 2024, MPT’s portfolio included 396 properties and approximately 39,000 licensed beds leased to or mortgaged by 53 hospital operating companies across the United States as well as in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Germany, Spain, Finland, Colombia, Italy and Portugal.

Hospitals around Europe are benefiting from strong reimbursement trends, growing occupancy, and higher acuity levels. In the United Kingdom, private medical insurance utilization has reached an all-time high – enabling operators such as Circle Health to deliver strong financial performance driven by volume growth as increasingly complex cases are being addressed in the private sector.

In the United States, hospital fundamentals continue to broadly improve across the general acute segment as increasing admissions and growing surgical volumes are driving improved coverage. In the behavioral and post-acute segments, operators are reporting consistent growth in inpatient admissions as well as improvements in contract labor costs.

Following the first full quarter of operations since transitioning 15 hospitals to new operators in September, MPT is encouraged by performance trends being reported across this portfolio as well as by a fifth tenant who leased two additional facilities in November. Across this footprint, our tenants have reported improving volumes, increasing patient satisfaction, and stabilization of staffing and supplies.

In January, Prospect Medical Group commenced an in-court restructuring process under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In February, MPT entered into a Term Sheet providing for a settlement that will enable Prospect to sell its hospitals and the related real estate with MPT’s cooperation. This settlement is subject to Bankruptcy Court approval.

OPERATING RESULTS

Net loss for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024 was ($413 million) (($0.69) per share) and ($2.4 billion) (($4.02) per share), respectively, compared to net loss of ($664 million) (($1.11) per share) and net loss of ($556 million) (($0.93) per share) in the year earlier periods. Net loss for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 included, among other non-recurring items, approximately $415 million of impairments and fair market value adjustments related to Prospect and PHP.

NFFO for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024 was $108 million ($0.18 per share) and $483 million ($0.80 per share), respectively, compared to $218 million ($0.36 per share) and $951 million ($1.59 per share) in the year earlier periods.

I’m not gloating, I only do homework and take positions accordingly. How people criticize others, wo doing any work is just the world we live in today. Gltl I expect a nice long uptrend and bigger divis or a short squeeze in the next 60 days. either way a great trade

Well hello. Today fkd' everyone up..eh? :) Happy kid here...

I'm not sure how you could be.....but resistance currently at $4.88 and it has broken through. I'd wait until the end of week before gloating.

Better education most of the time equals better results

I’m guessing I was early, however I’m also guessing I was correct

Yaa and the stock was struggling and diluting for 7-9 years and thought it was dead money. Always respected the ceo who owns about 25-30% of the stock and more held by insiders. A lot changed in the last 2 years. I caught up a year or so. Gee let’s see if there’s an opinion on my other stock. Again, it’s y I got here. Not any followers so I will just check in from time to time, but l look at other avenues as well. I wish you the best. I’m out

I saw what was worthless and not spending time on, starting to move up in price. I followed on yahoo, but saw they had less info than hub. I stated listing to quarterly cc to better get a sense of the path they were on. Zacks today, Zack’s is following a penny stock. This is their second or 3rd piece on them. I could care less if you or anyone else buys it. However, that’s how I got to mpw. I was looking at, I hoped good learned opinions.

There was the infamous woman who showed up with her husband at the CMKX "victory" party. She got drunk and chewed out Urban Cassavant on stage.

I vividly remember a guy on Raging Bull some 20 years ago whose wife got hold of his account when he wasn't around and started blabbing EVERYTHING. Hubby had lost all their money in penny stocks. The wife was no idiot and was actually quite articulate She understood the stock was a scam. No suicide but the couple, was divorcing.

There have been some suicides. Plenty of BKs and divorces galore especially during the Dot Com collapse days.

And yet in 13 years you made not one post to talk about your great investment (which looks like it had a pump and dump in Jan 2014). Is this like a cicadae that rises every 10 years from the ground?
Why had you never posted before? Why now?

His wife and family left him, and he kept saying he was contemplating suicide because he had nothing.

Again, way past well off can mean anything....in IHUB terms it might mean you can pay for lunch AND dinner.
Since we're throwing out vagueness as a reference point, I once owned a piece of a major league baseball team....can you afford to pay for Juan Soto.

Please note, you will see that I’ve posted on ELTP first, before mpw. I forget I was even on the board so I had to get a new pw. So, I’m not anything but an investor w 2 non investment grade companies getting info and questioning my decisions. I still believe in both. It may take a year or more but, I will due (no do) well.

I started on this site 13 years ago or so, because of a penny stock I owned symbol ELTP it went from Pennies to .80-.90 cents. I truly believe and believed in the CEO. The company was a one trick pony of an abuse resistant opioid. I sold 70-80%, and held on to the rest as it was worthless. They diluted to the max and got into andas. I started buying a year or so ago as sales, profits and pipeline grew. I currently have over a million shares and my avg cost is about .17. Top line growth is double digits as its pipeline is adding to sales. It is my only penny stk. the only other non investment grade stk, is Mpw that’s why I’m here

"begged for death," What does that mean?

"begged for death," What does that mean?

Too late I’m already there, just a comment on research and blinders. 13 years ago, I was in Eltp and made a small amount of money but held a significant position. Added significantly more in the last 12 months as I’ve watched and leaned. Sorry but I’m way past well off, so it’s only a comment on investing

Oh, I'm arrogant! But then IHUB sets a very low bar.
I often wonder when people here say they have significant money, what that means? I mean because I have significant monies, but due to inflation, I wonder what percentage truly do? The country went through The Great Resignation a few years ago and I think a high percentage will regret it.
But, anytime I read someone on here talking about their penny stocks as if its going to make them rich, I tend to write these people off.
So, unless you've recently changed your name, you took the moniker of a penny stock some 13 years ago almost to the day, but the stock did nothing so you never posted? Now you're making claims you're gonna be rich due to it and MPW, which I already know has financial troubles.
There's quite a bit you've posted that doesn't make sense, and I'm a researcher of personalities.

Currently I have over 98% of my investment cash in many funds and blue chip stocks of diversified markets. I do have significant monies, my 2%, in 2 high beta stocks. Mpw and ELTP. Both I expect to have significantly better returns, than my stock/bond 18 plus % yrs returned. I’m over fifty and live off of my retinas 70% to spare after tax. So preaching skills that you most likely don’t posess, is arrogant. I’m not talking about you, just some comment s I’ve read

When I first started trading and posting on RagingBull....a guy who started showing me penny stocks begged for death, then soon disappeared.

You can (and probably have) checked my posts almost back to my first day. I'm damn honest and consistent. Hate the penny scum, shills, the frauds and the TA hokum.

I try to Save Souls and bank accounts for good investing. But it's almost impressible to turn an atrocious investor into decent one. Gambling addiction, you know. At least I haven't heard of any local penny stock-driven suicides lately. And those do happen from time to time. .

Well, to be fair, this IS an investment website....or at least that was Matt's intention. Not a lot to discuss when just buying index funds. The problem is, this place allows scammers if they just pay their annual subscription and calling them out is verboten.
However, it makes no sense when you see an unused alias for a decade suddenly have much to discuss. Especially when they come on as a stock expert. It could be a penny stock CEO. It could be one of their many aliases.
Not everyone here is as honest as you and I.

That's called an "aged" alias, acquired and stored until needed. Just about everyone on IHUB is either a gambling addict or a shill. I'm a rare exception. My money is in blue chips and index funds and no one listens to people like me who actually make money in stocks. Far too boing for the locals.
