RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Lisa chit chatLet's just take stock of where the company is:
- Some said former problem employees would destroy the company. Not true. And those former employees paid Reliq compensation.
- Some complained the company wouldn't be able to sign contracts since their troubles. Not true. 199 contracts according to my count and new ones being added weekly.
- I recall statements that nobody of any size would partner with them. Not true. Cognizant, among others have partnered, and Cognizant said on an earnings release conference call that they expect the partnership to improve their bottom line and margins. That wouldn't be possible without some material developments.
- Some investors complained about the lack of a big four auditor. The company engaged KPMG, with related due diligence, some time ago.
- Some folks said that the niche was too small to be relevant. Not true. The niche has gotten huge.
- Some posters said the company would be overtaken by competition. Not true. Not only has Reliq stayed out front, but it has dramatically deepened and expanded its offerings over the years, plus it has increased its average contracted dollar charge per patient per month.
- Some folks said the company's clients would never pay. Not true. All of the old receivables are gone. Yup, there's lots to come, but there's no doubt CMS wants this service and wants to pay.
Now we get a former shareholder claiming Lisa hasn't been a CEO with relevant experience before. Not true and worthy of pointing out that if you're only looking for companies whose CEOs have sold out for billions, perhaps the Venture Exchange is the wrong place for you. In other words, you didn't do proper due diligence when you first bought shares in the company, which is on you. This same individual claims there is no independent director. Not true unless you define independent as someone you've never heard of before.
Is the company perfect? Nope. Is it way better than it was? Absolutely. Could I find something imperfect about the vast majority of small companies out there? Yup, Easy peasy.
It seems to me that we basically have a lot of people claiming the home team isn't a winner yet when they are clearly still in the early innings of the game.
Like I said before, you can focus on what Lisa said or Lisa estimated, but that's not the way to approach this. Just focus on what the company is doing. Just to reiterate:
Quarterly Annualized

That's decent progress. Unless covid becomes a big problem again, I'm thinking calendar H2 should be a much bigger improvement from there. Blue sky...
