I think when Mr. Turley makes his presentation at the Arch Conference, and he is trying to win over institutional investors with our story, he should start with the following Paragraph:
"The nature of our licensing business requires a certain amount of privacy. I know that's frustrating for people who try to "read the tea leaves" and discern what we and our partners at TPL are doing on any given day. Certainly you all understand the need to conduct negotiations with potential licensees in confidence. Neither we nor they want to jeopardize a deal by being indiscreet. I'm sure that must be exasperating for those who feel they need a detailed play-by-play of our business negotiations, but that's not going to happen. Trust that we're working with our shareholders' best interests at heart."
I am sure the above will instill a great deal of confidence and they will fork over millions.
Yes I like privacy in a public company and I readTea leaves when picking a stock. I don't need to know what they are doing on any given day just every 90 days would be nice. And I think play by play is a gross exaggeration.
