Spicy. Let me help you a little bit as you seem like you think you know but I don’t think you do know as much as you might think.
A company, when it is both evolving and growing, and positioning itself to grow and be profitable goes through of stage of cash burn. Now the companies that fail are the ones that basically pay high salaries for empty promises.
ITMs spending is well documented to be very controlled, they are actively creating future growth products and a business model that looks promising, and importantly met with demand.
ITM isn’t drowning itself in debt, quite the opposite.
The idea is, that you choose companies at this stage that look like they have a very good chance of becoming profitable but anyone with some degree of balanced views can see that, yes you are right in the sense that ITM is still unprofitable but the market and serious investors look beyond the current situation and look toward the horizon and direction a company is going.
It’s so easy to pick at simple negatives but almost no company that is fast growing and developing is without a stage of going through cash burn of some kind. Personally I’m very impressed with the way ITM is handling itself and especially how it’s looking a few steps ahead at how it can fortify its position against future headwinds and looking to maximise potential.
Institutions saw this along time ago and invested heavily, and you can see why. I don’t think any of us are free of concerns, and ITM do need to get some of those bigger contracts in for sure. But they are showing serious efforts of doing just that.
And when they do the share price won’t be less the a pound or two I’m sure.
It’s quite simply a case of investing in companies in the higher risk stage for future benefits..
If this was simply a sure thing it would be £5-£15 already.
The question is, do you want to wait till then and not moan. Or take the risk and wait.
But you don’t strike me as an investor. More an agitator with an agenda.
