I would encourage you and anyone else who believe that your post has merit to read the company's policy on corporate governance.
Options were approved on March 24th for a grant date of April 6th which quite likely coincided with the earliest available date when everyone came out of blackout following the release of financials.
Further, corporate governance would also prevent the granting of options if news was pending due to a voluntary company imposed blackout in accordance with this policy. In fact, the close on March 24th was lower than the strike price established for April 6th.
Therefore, while we believe news is around the corner I don't believe it is imminent.
I believe these are facts and I really wish that the conspiracy theories would stop. I don't believe that Suresh or anyone else would consciously breach the governance policy.
respectfully,
Hogan
