Therefore 50M were issued (registered) over the course of all of 2022 and to present. 790M to 840M
15M of the 50M issued from 10/1/22 to 12/31/22
So the late reported trades were not all about the last few weeks. (and certainly not 100M) Not arguing that the OS has risen, and has dilutive effect.
November 14 2022 10 Q
1,000,000,000 authorized; 805,596,961 and 790,924,690 issued and outstanding at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively
791M not 740M on 12/31/21, that misstatement accounts for 50M of the 100M you question.
And, in as much as the AS is 1B, nobody should be surprised/upset that PCT is using it's stock to fund/operate the company. The use of shares is in the K's and Q's, PCT is not hiding it. Few companies immediately disclose it's use of shares. Notice its on OTCM, presumably from the TA, We have to go find it, commonly referred to as DD.
