Thank you to justiceforall for digging up that Simply Wall Street article on Suresh V., our CEO. Basically, I found it to be a reasonable objective and balance article. Yes, the hint is there about Suresh V. being overpaid, but they also mentioned that it could be for a reason. I think POET had to pay to attract certain people and if he is slightly overpaid, at this stage of POET's evolution in comparison to other companies, then it must be for a good reason --- his experience with technology and positioning it to find value for the market. Notice I did not say "find value for the shareholders". Why? Because when you do extensive customer research in order to formulate the products that customers want, it will eventually bring in boatloads of steady streams of sales. It is when those sales happen, that POET shareholders will get shareholder value because of Suresh, our management team, and our Board of Directors.  Customers will open their wallets wide for good business deals. Our management's collective experience will eventually bring in shareholder value once a solid foundation is in place in their mission of creating a photonics integration company that the industry will look up to and buy on a growing innovative and positive experience in dealing with POET. This management is much much more than capital markets people -- too much of that on speculative stock exchanges anyway.
