Starting due diligence on this company, as I came to it indirectly,.
So take this as being naive, but in my checklist, I start with finacials, share structure, and related party transactions.
Also note-I post on facts only-although some take factual discussion of finacials to be negative-according to a value based approach it is objective and fact based.
The first area I had questions relates to the growth in shares, warrants, and likleihood of increasing share issuance to fund operations.
In terms of shares Outstanding:
Significant growth ~7million to ~50 million.
Insiders have been granted almost 10 million shares in the last 4 months.
This growth is providing financing which they require to survive (as indicated on the MD&A) but is also dilutive of existing shareholders.
As part of the refiling for errors in the financials it is noted in the MD&A:
Share-based Compensation The Company has identified an error relating to the vesting of stock options, which resulted in an understatement of share-based compensation for the nine months period ended September 30, 2019.

There were other errors related to the filings with the Ontario Securities Commission, and a change of auditor.
Change of auditor and announced refiling of financials

What do longs think of this?
Did you dismiss this because of the growth potential?
To keep this post from getting too long-will do a sperate post on the revenue/loss metrics, if this is worth it
