Your post sounds like "Briggs" is tired.
If EXTO has news, you'd think your conversation would be, "we are very excited, should be a great cc". "WE"
Moreover, someone stated two PR's would come based on his call to "Briggs".
You mention a possible delay.
Sounds like Briggs is rowing with one broken oar in the water, and one left on the dock.
Good news is they can talk about Rio, production.....
I see no sincerity in a dividend. Dividend for what....effing up?
The symbol change was, always has been and will be a non-issue, as it was a stupid pre-cursor to news that never moved the SP up anyway. That also created insincerity reflected in the SP.
If by the grace of a forgiving deity, they actually have production, generally good results....heck anything of merit....it will have to be substantial to get this over a penny.
This also sounds like calling Briggs was a waste of time, as he could legally disclose absolutely nothing, and basically should have told you so, and said "Wait for the CC, please." Also sounds like Briggs has a real job, and puts up with having to handle EXTO news, or the continuous lack thereof, that has only served to make him look foolish. That is exactly what I see written in your post.
Drill and pump some oil, and lets see 20 cents EXTO. Ask yourselves, "Is this EXTO or a new hybrid of SGCP and BDGR"?
