The energy drink sector is a $47 Billion dollar sector. CIRC doesn't have to compete with Redbull and Monster to grab a significant share of that market. Just ONE % of that sector is $470 Million dollars so even if CIRC eventually loses the license, just re-invent the drink by re-labeling it and giving it another name. I'd be happy if CIRC only got 1/2 of that 1% of the market. That would be sales of $235 million. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN and I believe CIRC has a fighters chance of it happening. Monster and Redbull (private co. I believe) started somewhere much lower than where their market caps are now.
You are assuming any of us will make it that far. If everyone is being honest we will not be holding this 2+ years from now.
So with that said who cares if they blow through the settlement money? We will be out by then. Also I LOVE how you are admitting that CIRC will win in court (main point of this post) or else you wouldn't even say they would have the money to waste.
Once the settlements come in this will hit 0.05 eventually on some sort of positive news after the settlement that will temporarily send it there.
But again I am glad you agree CIRC will win in court, finally coming around.
