KTF, if you're actually willing and able to engage in a meaningful SOU related thread on here - you seem to see the fact CalVal are still in the picture as positive. I would argue that it's actually the exact opposite. A company that was properly prepared and had alternative options would not have entertained CalVal and it's all too obvious tactics (just listen to what GL has said about them trying to squeeze existing SHs) for over a year now. The company should have walked away. How could they entertain a long term relationship with an organisation that clearly has contempt for not only SHs here but GL himself. They've made the guy look like an utter fool for over 9 months now. Without the equity funding they bring there is no Phase 2, there is no liquidity, there is no company, without huge brutal dilution. I'd hazard a guess there are few investor questions this afternoon as part of the investor presentation. Time after time they get asked for details, questions and commitments, and their record as a management team is rock bottom. I'd suggest they've brought investor expectations here so low now that there's probablye disengagement with their JP like bs. So I agree - clearly the CalVal option is still ongoing / limping along in some form, that is obvious as they'd have to RNS immediately if it ended. But I see that as a huge negative - it's an absolutely cast iron guarantee they entered that period of exclusivity last June with NO PLAN B, and I'd suggest they probably still don't have a plan B or have only tried to cobble together a plan B in the last few months, from a position of (even more) extreme weakness. This board is rammed full of pretty green investors I feel. It doesn't take Warren Buffett to join these dots.....
