It's possible the company does not provide detail so as to not inform competitors of what is in the works. Details could allow competitors to make strategic decisions to beat us at our game. Though we don't like it as shareholders, keeping us in the dark also keeps the opposing teams in the dark. Even the amount of a contract gives competition information about the readiness and capability of the company.

If this is the reason for not giving us more information then IMO it is good strategy. Keeping the competition guessing for as long as possible can have huge time to market advantages. May be especially important here where the first to be ready and available gets the contract.

Though I don't like having to wonder what's going on, if GTC and WSGI separately or in combination have one or more ideas of significant value of how to apply products and technology, then IMO there is long term advantage to not describing to competitors or would be competitors how to make things happen - especially if there are unique methods of putting products and technology together to meet a government need in a better way than demonstrated to date.

The Harvard twins shared their idea with Mark Zuckerburg and look who won in the end. If WSGI has something really valuable it may be the best thing long term to keep it undisclosed for as long as possible to allow them maximum readiness and product availability before informing the world of what they are offering.

The downside is potential investors of WSGI are also kept in the dark and presumably uninvested, so there is a balance needed, but given the situation of competing for gov't money may favor going a bit longer on less funding to win the race for a contract.

As frustrating as it is to not know exactly what is happening, I can appreciate WSGI keeping everything close to the vest and only releasing info that needs to be released per SEC requirements. It tells me that they are thinking in the best interest of keeping the company pristine and compliant which is something the old guard did not do very well.

Speculation based on a tidbit here or there is what got the company into trouble in the past. If they truly have something noteworthy, it will come out in due time and the share price will react accordingly. If they have the goods and we get a sustainable appreciation in valuation, it will be easier for me to be patient knowing that new managment has been doing the right thing all along. The exact opposite could happen too and then it's shame on me for not reading the tea leaves properly, but such is life in the penny stock world.

HighStandard, yes, post 137233 for B. Johnson's response.
I expected as much, or even less.
