News blackouts during certain periods are to be expected, as the SEC rules during IPO periods are very restrictive (understandably). But that doesn't account for a total absence of communication with shareholders since Dr. Musick stepped down as CEO four years ago. As I've said a number of times, the current CEO could be a cardboard cutout for all we know, as he has literally never addressed the shareholders. And I also don't understand why they have no media or social network presence. It makes no sense to me. If you need investment capital, why in the world would you want near-complete anonymity? You have to try pretty hard to be as invisible as this company is to the general public. I give them a lot of credit for navigating the fraught terrain between "murky supplier to the offshore medical tourism business" to "precipice of legit American biotech". Maybe radio silence was required to get this far, I don't know. But at some point you do need to communicate with shareholders.
