Yes - and the performance of the company and the stock is as abysmal as ever. The current CEO learned from her father - and we have seen all her 'success' in marketing the product in Canada all these years when daddy was CEO (CLUE: zero results).
The CEO claimed the virus would in no way negatively impact her #180 day plan. As for timing, it's super for BIEL management, as some shareholders are willing to use this to excuse the current leadership's lamentable failures.
The virus has been an issue for a few months; BIEL has failed to effectively market an innovative technology for 16 years.
