I know that presenting at investors conferences is a common manner for public companies. But at the same time it is a required activtiy to prepare investors for future investment actvites and build the ground for good investors (institutional) relationships. So there is nothing wrong with EFLs push towards those conferences.
Just interesting in this case ist the fact, that EFLs has not been always that active in this field, at least this is my personal perception... (correct me if I am wrong).
In addition there was much are larger interest in the stock over the course of the last months when on the one hand the seekingalpha article was posted and the company participated on the a handful of conferences. Ticket sizes were much larger 50-75K, which points into the direction that not Peter, Bob and Michael were buying for their retirement but rather some pros were looking into the stock. There is little proof for this but simehow I got the feeling that there is more action behind the curtain than we should feel and see.
So in case they are raising... what for? Whith whom? I am excited to know - guess I have to digg again in the industry...
