That's kind of what I thought at first, so I just tried to email him to not bother him with a time-consuming phone call, but he asked me to call instead and spent tons of time with me. He's just a down-to-earth guy who is willing to answer questions for real investors. I was really impressed and I think Hedgefun is going to have to promote me to a Tony water carrier too!
Of course, he wasn't able to give me information that wasn't already public, but basically confirmed that they're still looking good on the Japan front and mentioned additional overseas locations as well (nothing specific). He explained some of the data on the financials and it will pertain to an upcoming announcement. He spoke more on the numbers and explained in depth what they were. He explained some of the events in the past that happened where the stock price dropped which made complete sense. There were a few upcoming things going on, so really all great stuff. He also let me know some of the challenges which was great to hear his honesty.
Here is the email that I reached out to him on. He is completely open and willing to chat with anyone. dtorgerud@aprullc.com
