Athena Medical Corp. earns strong buy recommendation.


PORTLAND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 14, 1995--The Daily Prophet prophet [Gr.,=foreteller], a religious leader and spokesperson, particularly used in the Bible. The prophets emitted messages from the divine through inspired speech, the interpretation of omens and dreams, and the casting of lots and divination.  Financial Newsletter Tuesday issued a ``strong buy'' recommendation for Athena Medical Corp. (Bulletin Board:AFEM AFEM Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal
AFEM Air Force Emergency Management (US Air Force) 
).

The recommendation is based on three primary factors: 1) the introduction of the Fresh `n Fit Padette, 2) the company's bold expansion into international markets, and 3) anticipated approval for a national listing of the company's stock.

The Daily Prophet recommendation cites a formal listing as greatly increasing the number of investors and institutions interested in investing in Athena Medical, which should result in a significant short-term jump in its share price.

Describing Athena as a ``company with a very bright future'' and a buy with a 12-month target of $11 a share, this recommendation is a strong indication of confidence among industry analysts in Athena Medical's investment potential.

Athena Medical's strategic plan focuses on becoming an industry leader with innovative female hygiene and health care products. As the first new feminine protection product in more than 50 years, sales of the Fresh`n Fit Padette will benefit from international joint venture agreements to distribute Athena Medical's products.
