RE:RE:RE:volumeSorry I was not clear.. There are only so many hospitals and so the market for sales of machines is the same whether we have 1,000 shares out or 1,000,000 shares out. The buyout price will be based on potential sales so the number of shares out will split whatever the buyout number will be. Therefore by diluting the ownership , existing shares will get less money per share as their percentage of the buy out.
If we had enough money for three years as had been stated , why did we need the money. Placing 'Toll' machines in not a big deal - downloading sofware onto a computer and installing it is not a billion dollar operation.
That is the bueaty of this product. It is an add on to an ultrasound. The money is in the development of the software which has been done for the most part.
I do not understand the need to defend the company on the boards. It does not do any good at all.
Investors want results not good wishes. I own and have for quite a while. I am not in and out on the swings, like quite a few folks. I want this to succeed
Like I said I like the story. My fear is that the people that matter might not like the story as well as they need to. Otherwise we would have had a bunch of sales. Given some of the comments on the 'Toll' machine where the hospital 'rents' it and then charges the customers (insurance companies) for each use and pays for their 'rental' in a few uses resulting in a lot of profit for the hospital. This seems like a 'no brainer'.
But all these stories and hopes are not resulting in any big wins for VPT. We are still sitting at .50 after 6 months. If everyone believed and went with the stories, the stock would be 3 or 4 times the price. It is down here because a lot of people are dissappointed with the results and are selling.
There has to be more going on than normal shareholders know or this thing should be flying.
From what I see I will have to give this another year and assess it then.
