Value to be had if first sales go ahead no one doubts that the issue is missed deadlines. It would have been better if the company said first sales would be H1 2023 rather than Q1 2023. Reading between the lines it would appear first sales will be start to beginning of May 2023. Now I fully get this delay, the machinery cost a lot of money, it took an age to get all parts into the country so the last thing we need is someone breaking the machinery because of a lack of training. Absolutely no one disputes this the issue is another missed deadline, people will think okay first sales April 2023, first sales don't happen April 2023 then its the old chestnut I've been spun a lie, panick kicks in & the next round of selling starts. The best thing the company can do now is start setting realistic deadlines & meet them but first sales must start H1 2023 anything beyond this & those in a 4.5p will have wished they waited a tad longer. If first sales do happen happy days back up we go. On a final note any additional work that would result in delays just be honest with your investors I'm sure they would wait a while longer so long as you're being honest with them, when you start being pathological with the truth then you annoy them to the point they just want out. That's on the BOD to correct.
