ODIS

ODIS
OPL says that they've been talking to investment bankers.. this more than likely will mean that ODIS will be bought and taken to market as an IPO... my heart kind of sank when i reread this part. I think OPL's shareholders hope would be that they maintain a 51% ownership and rights to royalties.

i'm not trying to scare anyone but in the past i've seen this very thing happen and the shareholders of record didn't receive any "new" shares and the only benefit to them was the fact that the company maintained a 20% ownership of the newly made company... the new stock went to over $20 while the stock that spun it off saw no real monitary gain.. none.  The shareholders didn't receive 1 share of the new company!!  not one. Managment did very well though!

I truly hope and pray this doesn't happen with ODIS but investment bankers do what they do... gobble up the proceeds.

I was and am praying that OPL keeps control of ODIS but according to their own words that might not be the case. :(

Somebody tell me i'm wrong .. please...
