The 2:1 consolidation
The 2:1 consolidation is to give the company the ability to use it in the next 12 months. It's not a 8:1 or 15:1 it's a 2:1. They have over $6 million in the bank with similar revenue coming in Q2 (Q2 filing due Aug 16).
They don't need to do a 2:1 consolidation to finance. They have more than enough room in ther share allocation if they wanted to issue new shares but with $6 million and basically break even for the next couple quarters why would they?
Now lets say they reach $2 or $2.50 and look at the 2 options. (Yes I know that is a big assumption)
1) No preapproved consolidation so the share price hits $2-2.50 and they ask for a vote to do a 2:1 to uplist. What do you think the shorts would do. Pile on and push it back down to under $2. So a share consolidation happens but they don't meet the Nasdaq listing requirements and the whole cycle happens again.
2) They get pre approval. Stock hits $2-2.50. They halt the stock announce the 2:1 consolidation and open on the nasdaq. No opportunity to short.
There is a specific reason they only wanted 2:1. They could have asked for a 10:1 and just went there but they know the fall out that would be on shareholders and they have to show they have plans to move the share price first.
If they don't reach $2 or more it wont happen anyway so nothing lost. And a midnight consolidation and uplist is more appealing than letting the shorts get in the way.
In hindsight the 8:1 didn't work, the Aristotle roll out was not well planned and the company is getting better but the marketing is still underwhelming. But that's the past. They know they need to complete the Care deal, increase marketing, work with larger empoloyers etc. Tripp mentioned all these milestones being necessary in the confrenece call.
So assuming they do these things whats the best way to get uplisted:
1) Get pre approved for a 2:1 consolidation and use it after achieving $2-2.50
2) Ask for a vote after acheiving $2-2.50
3) Organically get to $4-5
Ideally all shareholders would like #3 but is that realistic and how long will that take?
If we can't have #3, #1 seems a better option given the recent activity of the shorts than option #2.

Classic stockholm syndrome with here, cheering on another reverse split even though another R/S will dilute you into oblivion. LOL Maybe it's time to move on kiddo. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about in regards to what a reverse split does to shareholders.

This all makes logical sense but the risk averse frightened puppies who for some reason are invested here don't care. Fear is their only reaction to things they can't comprehend. Risk is not for everyone but it would be nice if the easily frightened could control their angst it's embarrassing.

That is nonesense. If you are an actual shareholder and value your investment, VOTE AGAINST the consolidation. If you give them the option to do it whenever they want, SZLS management will just do it at a random time, just like the 8:1. Keep your shares people! If they get to the $2.50 zone then lets talk. Until then they shouldnt have the option! I can tell you my shares will be voting against.

Do you ever say anything contructive or just get frustrated when disappointed shareholders voice their honest opinion. Trying responding with facts or information. You are the joke mykndsn

your first hint that your opinion on the 2-1 might be wrong is that 4bash4ever and the newly created dez are agreeing with you lol

Just another emotional outburst. Logic and reason has nothing to do with it.

Bang on and they are only asking for a 2:1. Basically saying they expect the share price to be north of $2-3 in the next 1-12 months.

So name calling and bad grammar is how you debate a company strategy. Gotcha. Keep shorting and distorting a cancer detetction company. I'm sure the family is proud.

Exactly right Kodiak...Everyone needs to remember that the deal isnt done. Its up to us to approve or vote against now. I will be doing the former and have quite a few shares to back that vote. Hope all longterm holders will do the same!
