But it was a good enough map that we have been able to follow the fortunes of the company with some comprehension of what was going on. They were building world wide market access and dealing with legal work with the expectation of good revenue at the end of that. We got told that and then we watched it slowly unfold. Possession of that road map was what gave shareholders the courage to stick with the company through tough times.
And it worked. That road map did indeed lead to here. But that map has now expired.
So where to now? Are they just going to wait for compounding to work magic on revenue? Are they going to set to work on trying to leverage the situation with clever marketing techniques? Has the food thing run its course, or is it still a major objective? Have they plans for that elusive Asian market? Are they hoping for whole new products? Are they planning on just going on being a relatively minor product supplier (as you might perhaps describe them so far) or are they hoping to consolidate into a more substantial company? In short, will the company still look much the same in 5 years?
I just have no idea what the next 5 years is meant to hold for this company, where the next destination is. So I'd love for them to share this with us some time this year. The next AGM would be good, of course!
