Very revealing indeed - this is a PTSC pr, and no correction/retraction as of 5.18 pm.
Something doesn't smell right to here at all - why toss out 'good news' pr's after the bell on a holiday Friday, and why does it contain this egregious inaccuracy?
There have been some woefully bolloxed pr's in the past, but it is hard to imagine that the first company name that sprung to mind of the erstwhile writer of these 2 impressive sentences is completely irrelevant.
Signed and not yet announced ?
Freudian slip revealing ongoing discussions or just wishful thinking ?
Either of these would only serve to further reinforce the feeling that no-one competent or who gives a damn is in charge here. These pr's are the primary means by which the overcompensated ones deign to communicate with us. They chose to provide 39 new words in the last 5 weeks, and still royally screwed it up.
Released yesterday or Tuesday am,, this might have reversed some of the 50% pps decrease since their last public utterance. It may even have allowed for a clarification and correction of the glaring surprises contained in it.
This is truly breathtaking incompetence and complete disregard for joe-shmoe shareholder, no matter the reason.
