With that said I will offer my straight forward analysis of the current state of STWA as an outsider.
I was excited when Gregg became the CEO of STWA. He was the right man for the job and STILL is the right man for the job. He has positioned this company for commercial success, and he will drive STWA to succeed in bringing-in those contracts (in a business-realistic timeframe of course).
But the CEO has had a few missteps since taking the job. He promised transparency, but has not delivered. The company is shrouded in secrecy. Where he really has failed is to manage investors expectations with effective PR's. I believe he has recently taken a step in the right direction to rectify the issue with the new investors relations company that was hired. The underlying problem is that he's running this company like a big-board company. The reality is that STWA is an OTC company that is not yet generating quarterly growth, and therefore needs to be managed as such when it comes to investor relations.
Today's PR is absolutely fluffy! I know there are NDA's in place and certain information can not be released. Nevertheless, investors can and should be updated on operational details. Such as: Is STWA at the negotiation table with TransCanada ("a $36B North-American pipeline operator") for commercial/non-testing installation of the AOT? or What has STWA done to be ready to ramp-up production of AOT in the event a large order is placed? How about an update on progress in the upstream market? Investors need to hear more operational specifics (without violating NDAs). That will effectively manage investors expectations.
Here's the proof that investor expectations have been grossly mismanaged under current management: just take a look at the trend of this chart. A year-long downtrend! If the PPS falls though $0.48 support there's no telling how low it will fall. I think that has gotten the attention of STWA management, hence the fluffy PR today.
With all that said, I am confident in the AOT Technology and current managements ability to commercialize and monetize it over the next several years. But common I know you can do better in the meantime.
Long & Strong! Go ZERO!
