As far as I know, they can say anything that they want. They are expectations. When they find out otherwise, then they are supposed to pre announce.
There are rules regarding this, obviously. Rules of this type, I leave to the attorneys to read, digest, and interpret. I have enough to stuff in my brain.
IOW, revenue guidance is off all the time. Now, on the bright side, companies do beat the numbers often as well.
I look at it this way, EVERYONE is expecting a good announcement next week, along with revenue guidance, INCLUDING me, so I would not get in the way of this stock, and buy on the down days.
The pps IS 50% above the 50 day MA. That cannot hold, but there is a LOT of momentum behind this stock, despite the dilution.
