Question for longs

Hi all,
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.

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

Divide by 8, those are preconsolidation option values.
Comment by GrahamB on Dec 20, 2020 11:55am
Right. So, if I understand it correctly -post consolidation, the key directors control 6.4%, and have current options in place for another 11%, and can extend to 15%
