what is actually being compared there is not the difference in competitiveness, but the difference between a public company and privates corporations...
the other corporations have hundred of millions of dollars in private financing...their few shareholders have all the info they need in their hands...those companies have multi billion dollar corporations with global recognition collaborating with them...PUBLIC COLLABORATION..
these corporations have no incentive or reason to release anything other than what they already have released...their shareholders know far more about their respective companies than kblb shareholders know of their company....FAR MORE...
those companies are fat with cash, globally recognized partners, and are far far better managed...
what you pointed out was a graph in an s-1 that kim is trying to accomplish that will bleed $24 mil cash out of this 14 cent penny stock...he has to do something because the company is dead broke and he is forcing it into more debt to him personally...
he almost had production up and running last year except that someone left a door open and the worms froze...lol
so the tiny little dead broke public company that hasnt produced any product is the big kahuna and all the other well funded, well managed and well partnered private companies are just not cutting it?...
kinda hard to see it that way...btw...isnt that chart like 5 yrs old?...hes still using it?...wonder why he hasnt updated it?...and maybe started using comparisons that matter, instead of faulting them for not publicizing what most private companies dont publish...
