It's about time Sheraholders open their eyes..

I hope Dave 8370 is right ..I would luv to see a SH INITIATED SPECIAL MEETIN so management can be held accountable..You have my full blessing Dave and 110% support..When do we vote?When is enough Enuf????
I sent an E-mail to the Compny a couple of weeks back,enquiring wether a decision has been made in respect to the upcoming AGM and if it would be delivered Virtually or Onsite and nothing but Crickets from anybody.
More reason as to why a SH Initiated special meeting is urgently required before the NExt AGM..IMO

They can't even attract investors @ 15c..that says it all..Sad,Sad story.. Fj asks this Question on Agorascam. So why don't you explain to me why Lightwave Logic has a market cap of more than 10 times POET? DhuH!!.the answer lies in The incompetent Management with POET..If POET had proper management,then perhaps,We too might have a market cap the equivalent to LWLG,wich is fair to say ...more

I cannot see how they have enough cash to make it to the AGM. It looks as if Poet is set to get taken private after bancruptcy, soon. Perhaps the only way is if they stop paying bills, but that only goes that far.

I'm not worried.. Mazan said we are all going to be shocked at the News..The future is beyond bright.Soon money won't be an issue for poet.lmso

Winter, you have not kept up with your Agora readings!! FJ pointed out how much POET is worth just on their tax loss credits Millions!!
Comment by maestrodrumboe on Apr 02, 2024 4:42pm
He is correct in his rough calulation..Any Profitable Corporation would be able to apply the losses against profits,but a  buyer would never pay the equivalent of their tax rate savings..the tax loss savings does indeed have value,but may or may not add a premium to the sale,or at least certainly nowhere near the figure of 53 Mill as stated by FJ..Another way to look at it,is that the 215 ...more

Look at it this way...anybody or entity that would be willing to pay 53 Million premium for POEt's tax loss benefit to Save 53 Million in taxes, would have to be maybe a little bit Stupid.dont you thinks? Certainly,any company carrying yearly profits would give it consideration, if they see other valuable potential in making a bid for POET..IMO

Cumulative net losses do not equal tax loss carryforwards. Note 22 says deferred tax asserts = $150M US
Comment by maestrodrumboe on Apr 02, 2024 5:28pm
That's cuz the $250 Mill US figure,as stated by FJ,for accumulated losses is nowhere near that. As per latest financials,the correct deficit figure as at Dec 31st 2023,is $214 Mill CD,which is close to your 150M US.. 
Comment by wintersun10 on Apr 02, 2024 5:42pm
And then if there is an X amount how much will you pay for that? 100%? NO. Big No. Perhaps 25 to 10%? Not a big factor. But nice talking point, to rally the Bullboard troops.
Comment by wintersun10 on Apr 02, 2024 5:48pm
Actually most likely, Poet should do a reverse takeover of TikTok. Poet gets money and management and TikTok gets to stay in the US. Clearly why did the grapevine not come up with this? Win/Win
Comment by wintersun10 on Apr 02, 2024 6:00pm
Problem. Cannot raise that kind of money according to the Supplement to the Supplement. Is TikTok worth more than 1/3 of the public float? 23 mln? Too bad. Back to the drawing board or drop the Supplement altogether.

Poet's fins are in USD
Comment by wintersun10 on Apr 02, 2024 5:06pm
I guess he meant a merger with a profitable company. A merger with CAI maybe, but doubt they will run profits anytime soon. In theory it may work. Of course you got to make sure you don't get tripped up by tax loss regulation over the many countries Poet is spread out. US vs CN and on and on. Yeah, will work on a Bullboard post to rally the troops. In reality. Who needs this kind of ...more
