Better question is why give fcel a deadline at all . If Exxon was content with the progress, leave it open ended to completion No need for a deadline unless they have reservations.
That's why they turned to agreements with others. Isn't it?
As to your other question, I have no idea what the researchers showed in 2020 except to say, the numbers reported by the company were losses.
I don't believe analysts follow stocks trading at $.25 and the run thereafter had nothing to do with any fundamental positives the company was showing. That's why it dropped
after reality set in.
Analysts put a SELL on it based upon thir research. Some who ignored the facts of that research, spun their own and touted it as a BUY at just about every level on the way down, clearly proved flawed as the results show.
So who can an investor rely on when comparing the record and the results past and future.?????
