spec machine

They already have the deal details signed (definitive agreement), all that is left is the closing. I think we'll hear as soon as the closing is done.

I respectfully disagree.
according to the 8-K filed:
"Deep Down's closing of the purchase of Flotation Technologies remains subject to several conditions, including Deep Down's obtaining financing for the payment of the purchase price."

They reached an agreement in principle, but the financial (and other) details are yet to be finalized. I like the Q report, the deal flow, and the sweet spot DDI is in regarding deep water drilling -- they are well positioned for huge growth -- but it bothers me that they PR Flotation Technologies orders before they have finalized the merger. Anyone in business knows a deal is not closed until it is closed. JMHO
