As it turns out, the "infamous email" was 100% legitimate. It was post no. 9521 on 12/22/14. Unfortunately, d-bag Willis did NOT include the words "pro forma" along with the $80 million figure.
The same comment & figure can be found in the recent 10-K and the use of "pro forma" was debated here. There were also a few posters who attempted to explain what Willis may have meant by stating $80 million back then but most people read what they wanted to.
The next problem was since "Willis said $80 million", & sales thru the first 3 quarters was about $30 million, many "iHubbers" deduced that Q4 "had to be" $50 million.
The NEXT PROBLEM was once again, "iHubbers" stated as fact that if Q4 2014 was $50 million, then clearly full year 2015 would be AT LEAST $200 million!
The NEXT PROBLEM was more "iHubbers" said that "only $200 million" wasn't factoring in growth so clearly 2015 would be much more than $200 million!!!
For the record, I do not know the original poster (z_deville) and I blame Willis.
