With confirmation of the CEO change, the 2022 Annual Report filed, WY SOS updates of May 12 and now the latest Company Profile updates at otcmarkets.com on August 23, including the SIC change to "patent owners and lessors", we should see significant additional buying in the near future and over the next few weeks/months into 2024.

As of August 27, 2023, there is now significantly increased trader awareness - at least 51 OTC market top traders each with a significant following in the 3K > 49K range (up 10 in 3 weeks) + 66 others (up 42 in 3 weeks) each with a following in 100 > 999 range on $SFLM.

Expect a dramatic move up anytime we get sufficiently large buys set across several successive asks - as happened on November 15 and November 18, 2022.

We should get past any remaining mass 1-tick flippers by .0015 and get back to a more normal few M per .0001 from .0016 > .0020 then much thinner still after that - typically 200K > 500K per .0001 - all the way to the .01>.02+ range IMO based on detailed record keeping over the last few years since $SFLM was last at .02.

Only long-term holders (over 12 months) who believe the company will go back to .01 > .02 range have any shares with a cost basis over .0012 now.

As with all my long-term top picks, knowing who got what where - relative to you by process of elimination - is important when deciding the ratio of shares to keep long-term vs locking in partial profits at peaks in the .01 > .02+ range - as is patience - this is a long-term play throughout 2023 and into 2024.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Performance and Outlook

$SFLM will remain a potential top profit pick for me throughout 2023 and into 2024 for self-evident reasons in this Overview.

Performance in each year 2020 > 2022 has shown that it pays to be ready at all times for surges with tradeable lots from multiple price points - not just trying to get the cheapest of the year and stretch them.

Continued large profit trading opportunities are anticipated ahead throughout 2023 and future years for those who maintain a large inventory of shares at a variety of price points. Having plenty of shares - you don't need the cheapest - avoids the need to chase every time it runs.

With some OTC tickers now adding 10 Billion - even 50 Billion - shares per update, $SFLM remains one of the thinnest sub .02 tickers in the OTC with an immediately tradeable Unrestricted Outstanding shares count of only 2.019 Billion unchanged for 320 days as at September 17, 2023.

Cancel any left over ask sell orders at close to get the maximum gap up at each open.

Expect .02+ at some point ahead in 2023 / later years and watch out for the following catalysts:

- Momentum move up ahead of updates through former long-term bidders and new interest taking the small offered asks thereby causing bidders to commit to ask buying while they still can under .0020 / .0050.

- Updates on the "impressive deal flow of prospects that could be acquired or technology that could be licensed by SFLM” [source: PR November 15, 2022]

- Updates on the lithium mining initiative for batteries.

- Updates on acquisitions, patents and licensing.

- Possible name change.

- Possible ticker change.

SEC Action Against Actions Of Previous CEO - Matter Now Closed

The SEC had been investigating the old company under the previous CEO for selling unregistered offerings October 10, 2019 up to December 9, 2021. This accounted for why share increases declared monthly at otcmarkets.com during that period appeared to be insignificant compared to the total volume traded in each period. The matter is now closed with $SFLM agreeing to pay a $25K fine in quarterly installments.

Not a financial advisor - just stating what I'm basing my trading decisions on.

I will be holding some $SFLM in my portfolio throughout 2023 and into 2024 for long-term growth, trading some on surges from the bottom up too and reloading on any dips.
