It has always been my understanding that any publicly traded company's main focus was taking care of it's shareholders, so coming out and saying that in a PR to me was really stating the obvious. So, it seems they were trying to make another point. Yes, we all feel the shares are undervalued presently, but it would appear something is most likely already going on behind the scenes and with the one sentence that talked about sales, JV's, mergers, etc., maybe a bigger player is sniffing about to take them out. Who knows.
LOL, I didn't read the sentence you highlighted close enough I suppose, but in essence they're saying we want to create more shareholder value, BUT WE WON'T TELL ANYONE UNTIL WE DO A DEAL OR HAVE TO LET YOU KNOW SOMETHING. That really gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling that I, as a shareholder, have a say in the matter!
I think somethings cooking behind the scenes and as long as I make out in the deal I'll be happy I guess. My average cost now is .50/share, so even if the company is taken out IMO they should get something north of that. We'll see.
