24-hour CEO
While listening in on the AGM webcast last week I noticed on my world clock (it's always on one of my monitors) that the meeting started after midnight in Adelaide, Australia. It was over at 01:30 AM for DrDR.
I've talked to DrDR before about the hours she keeps, talking to the North American and European pharmaceutical industry executives at really weird hours in Australia. In the summer, Adelaide is 17.5 hours ahead of Pacific Daylight Savings Time. It's 18.5 hours ahead of me in the winter, currently 15.5 hours ahead of the east coast (EST). And she's 10.5 hours ahead of London, UK.
I'm getting a little cranky over those who think she works part time. Midday in Australia happens when the East Coast of NA and Europe are sleeping or about to sleep and while the West Coast of NA is shutting down.
DrDR's business hours are horrible, but I would contend that during Adelaide's midday hours DrDR is free from almost all connections that relate to Bioasis. In other words, in Adelaide, she's free during her mid-day hours to surf, swim, read a book, run Carina Biotech or to do anything else she wants to get her jollies.
This "part-time" stuff is nonsense, as I believe you will soon see. She needs the support of shareholders because you can be assured that efforts to run her down here on SH or anywhere else are noticed by partners and potential partners. They all follow SH and they have a financial interest in putting pressure on Bioasis if they think for a moment that the BoD and executive do not have the full support of shareholders.
She's closer to a 24-hour CEO than to a part time CEO and it's time for a few people here and in my world to stop the nonsense about it.

Chrispi, given that presentations from the summer and fall indicated more deals were likely before end of calendar and that appears all but impossible at this late date, you seem to imply you have some undisclosed information when you say "we'll all be pleasantly surprised with her accomplishments soon enough". Can you explain ?

I have no insider information but what if a deal happened on January 2/2021 and she missed the deadline of "before end of calendar" would you forgive the company or rake them over the coals for not meeting their "likely" deadline?

New to this particular board. I stumbled across the stock and started researching. The lack of interest baffles me for what appears to be impressive and unique tech. Zacks even said valuation should be 0.60. Does make you wonder why there's no movement.

that Zachs analyst research report has a share price target (of where they think it should be trading RIGHT NOW) of .60 USD which is .76 CDN Yes, we are severly undervalued as the analyst from Edision Investment Research has a target of .89 CDN

Always someone willing to hit the bid. That's been the problem for quite a while. Should change when new buyers start moving into BTI with volume.
