A reverberating echo I think is in order only from my perspective there are truly hard numbers which should have already followed for each company, i.e. 3-D, ProGas, and Murphy.
We know the future for ProGas regarding new and quite possibly already committed contracts are huge for 2006; but have we seen a recent PR? No! Why? You know why!
We know 3-D is also reacting to new contracts, so where is a recent PR and hard numbers?
Murphy since mid to late 05 has also brought in new contracts and numbers, where are they?
It’s a fact that new contracts have been forthcoming, in the course of, and are now approved from the above entities; so what’s the hold up regarding a release?
To small or too secretive? hmmm
Let’s say for example ProGas has brought forward $300,000 in new contracts since the acquisition. Why wouldn’t this be news worthy? Why wouldn’t new contracts from 3-D builders be news worthy even if the amounts are say $100k or less? Why wouldn’t new contracts through Murphy S & G be news worthy?
What is news worthy?
Again it’s a fact… there are new numbers, new contracts from each entity, only with Paul Alonzo his idea of “transparency” is to hold back ‘hard facts’ until he deems appropriate. Yeah Paul’s a feisty guy… only this side of our President belongs behind closed doors negotiating new contracts with Ron.
If the company by chance announces [just a thought here guys] to postpone the 10K, that’s ok I guess… but where’s the support to keep the long term investors onboard? If it happens they should have already thought about it, right?
As Paul has so ineloquently stated to me and others… if you don’t like it… sell it!
I personally don’t like what I “don’t hear” and agree totally with FM, and that is if Phoenix is going to spend good money on talented attorney’s, they should also be spending money on marketing and not a caddy-shack-looking-gent who spends most of his time chasing goofy golf balls every chance he gets.
Fact: someone inside the company couldn’t remember the last time Mike M called the company to ask questions. Questions he should be asking on weekly bases to keep shareholders updated so that when a shareholder calls Mike to chat a bit, and mentions something in general in which Mike hasn’t heard yet, the dude goes to pieces. This is someone we can do without, and hopefully… PA will figure it out sooner rather than later.
I don’t smell a rat, I smell a house in which the corners need to be cleaned, buffed, and a series of News-Statement on how tidy things are including who’s coming to dinner!
All this comes down to someone so paranoid about news getting out in which investors see as noteworthy.... yet one insider see's [the competition lurking], I just don't understand that kind of thinking!
I haven't changed my outlook on PBLS long term as in 15-cents, but have pushed that number back until May or June of this year. If we get a government contract, [if if] it's almost a sure bet it is not going to have hard numbers.
If the 10K gets pushed back for some reason lets hope the company is smart enough to release contracts [no matter how small] currently underwraps to help LT-shareholders stay afloat!
