All,
When it comes to posting, I usually only chime in once a month to tell Bobby he's in over his head (look at my history) so pls bear with me as I deliver a lengthier and different message than normal.
To Preface, I'm long here but TMPS' silence is deafening...like many of you, I can't help but wonder what is going on behind the scenes and like many of you again, I believe it is something substantially accretive to the existing business model.
The rub on all of this speculation, for me, is Management's inability to communicate...they're twitter feed barely has a pulse, they communicate via email and their website that inspections should be complete and pending RFPs should be awarded and then time just continues to go by without any follow up...look at Buck's recent post on the $45m contract...I get that TMPS has different mgmt now and a different business strategy than prior management, but nonetheless, prior mgmt announced a $45m contract and current mgmt has made no effort to communicate that this contract is no longer on the books...it is officially now being re-RFP'd...$45m lost, for now, and you can't provide an investor update? Instead, for communication, they hold a half ass CC, where someone can't find the mute button and the CEO (whom I like and believe in) tells us nada that we don't already know...it was almost comical and waste of time...furthermore, go back and listen to that CC if you can, the CFO walks through financials as if it's his first time doing so...a little strange.
Aside from all of that venting, although I haven't expressed it, I appreciate the solid posts from the dedicated ones on this board (you know who you are) and I wish you only the best of luck...full disclosure, I actually find myself sometimes agreeing with Bobby's comments so i do appreciate those posts too, thanks.
What is the purpose of the message? I think some of it is clearing out my head, venting on TMPS' inability to communicate and some of it is making it known to so many of you that I appreciate your endless DD and optimism.
Lastly, in case you were curious, I've accumulated over 100k shares with an average price of 29 cents...if I was BillJay and had gotten in on ground level, I would have still written this note...best of luck to you all...just my 2 cents
