Nephros (NASDAQ: NEPH): Filtration and Pathogen Detection for Medical and Commercial Markets [Due Diligence Podcast‪]‬ Planet MicroCap Podcast | MicroCap Investing Strategies

    • Investing

My guest on the show today is Andy Astor, President and CEO of Nephros, Inc. (NASDAQ: NEPH). Nephros, Inc. develops and sells water solutions to the medical and commercial markets in the United States. The company operates through three segments: Water Filtration, Pathogen Detection, and Renal Products. Its ultrafilters are used in dialysis centers for the removal of biological contaminants from water and bicarbonate concentrate; and in hospitals for the prevention of infection from waterborne pathogens, such as legionella and pseudomonas, as well as in military and outdoor recreation, commercial, and other healthcare facilities.

The company is a pure play in water filtration and water pathogen detection in healthcare facilities. In their latest earnings call they mentioned a $250,000 order supplying filters to a large quick service restaurant chain with a couple thousand units and they recently launched a new water pathogen detection system. With that said, I wanted to chat with Andy about:

Filtration and Pathogen Detection Business
HDF development - a new dialysis machine with expected FDA clearance ~mid 2022
The commercial filter business and the opportunity here

With that, please enjoy my conversation with Andy Astor, President and CEO of Nephros, Inc.
