I just did some more digging into this SEC case since it will probably be brought back up again. All I have to say is...YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY, 100% CORRECT!!!
I pulled the court documents for this case and there was originally a motion for sanctions (consisting of the $120,000 fine) that was filed by the SEC because they requested modified PRs to be issued. That motion was WITHDRAWN after the company updated and reissued the PRs in question. This case has been closed and no fines were imposed on the company or any of the principals.
