I didn't suggest they weren't spoken for, just that Gary has in fact diluted a boat load of shares the last year and a half, and that it's far from over.
It's clearly stated where the shares went.
Now, before you get to excited about not hitting 1b yet, it's best to keep in mind that 1. The dilution hasn't stopped yet, but more importantly 2. They have notes coming due now that they can't pay back. Guess what that's likely to lead to... yep, more dilution. They're certainly closer to 1b than they were a year ago, and they are a lot closer to 1b than they are to going to other way.
Some so quickly forget that last year many were talking about how the outstanding shares would be going over 1B soon due to debt. Not looking like that is going to happen anymore as PCTL has worked to clean things up in a better than expected fashion.
Mr. Aandt in your opinion why would Paradigm go through the laborious process of cleaning up a balance sheet and using any further dilution to clean up debt? Is there anyone out there that has a trading background that can see any advantageous reasoning to do this for Paradigm or as a way to scam shareholders or as a way to create opportunity for insiders? My point is there a possibility that Gary and his new CFO etc are actually doing these things since they may believe they have a shot to scale and some ability produce some eventual upside? I mean if there wasn't possibility for upside here why use the dilution to satisfy debt at all? Very confusing when I read through certain posts here one guy actually said he has not messed up like this in 41 years of trading, Really?. Cannot identify if people are frustrated or just manipulating information. Appreciate it...
