I have to disagree with your analysis. If they wanted to suppress the share price all they would have to do is not say anything about the share retirement, and they would be able to buy back all the shares they wanted at triple zero rates.
My fear is that they will issue a report that shows very little revenue just like the last two, but issue a PR about all the wonderful things in the works again.
I've been holding shares for a long time and am hopeful that there will be a steady increase in sales and revenue, and that there is some master plan in the works. Time will tell, but I am convinced that Todd has a plan otherwise he wouldn't pay $250M for the 500MM shares he bought to retire when he could have bought them on the open market for half that amount at the time.
