Millionairio makes an interesting point regarding compensation so I thought I would take a look - the results were eye opening. Looking at just Doug and Frank's compensation for 2014-2015 including Salary and Bonus: 2014: Doug - $660K plus 958,298 Stock Options; Frank - $248,126 plus 1,051,847 Stock options; 2015: Doug - $1,071,200 plus 137,095 Stock Option; Frank - $465,000 plus 91,398 Stock Options. This raises a couple of real issues: 1) Obviously it "seems" to reflect a lack of confidence in the company's prospects: no "stock buy back" and, even more telling, the top 2 in the company are rewarding themselves big time. They took much more in salary/bonus in 2015 then stock options. This seems very telling in their belief in the company. This information was pulled from their Annual Report for their fiscal year ending 12-31-2015. It demonstrates real confidence when, as Millionairio points out, senior management buys in and puts their money where their mouth is.
