Seriously dude - appeasment ? That has long and storied history of working out real well. You do realize that the layers are taking your money away from you - every day-with the compliance and approval of your BOD, and now also you it seems (unless you are one and the same)
My opinion - Until the self-serving inside interests in this unholy mess are hosed away for good, this will always be a traders stock.
If you've been into this for as long as you say you have, you'll know that the story is trader-friendly and remarkably consistent:
1. The lawyers have consistently made licencing arrangements to maximise thier own income.
2. Expenses charged to PDS are very large, very opaque, and very much deleterious to our bottom line. (Who is directly benefiting from these expenses is anyones guess, but it sure isn't you.)
3. Our quaterly income statements are consistently a dissapointment (although the excuse de jour changes like the wind). I cannot recall a 10q with an upside earnings surprise in 6 years.
4. The PPS only rises on hope (Disney must have coughed up plenty, the T3 have settled for plenty etc etc), and never on actual revenues.
I'm a buyer today though, for one reason only. The event that I'm assuming will move this stock is in the hands of an individual (Ware) with no vested interest in the outcome. It is not possible for the lawyers to manipulate the decision process, and it will take some time for our BOD to make a complete pigs breakast out of the opportunitiy it should present them with. By that time, I'll be long gone, hopefully richer than today.
Once the insiders have sole control of the licensing, the divvies, the warrants and the PDS expenses again, it will be back to the same old same old. You might make a little yourself, but nowhere near as much as you should.
My thoughts, dreams and primal screams only...
