- Investors being really confused about why we won't have Q1 financials instead of 2013 financials
Just off the top of my head, of course. Point being, you're distracted from what actually matters
at this point.
The hint of the day is: It isn't a third party financial audit.Tune in next time for, "Kleeck answers a really, really, really stupid question!"
By the way, your list of questions for Ken looks good!!
But isn't the point of an external audit to establish which of these things actually happened? Except for a one-page NDA with eASIC and some photos of workbenches, there's no evidence for any of this. Would you trust a financial statement from Ken at this point?
That said, it'd be silly for shareholders to pay for the audit out of pocket. The company should obviously pay for it. If it turns out Ken's all legit and above ground, the end result is the same.
Does either the Belize or the US company employ an accounting firm, by the way? Surely they pay taxes, there's got to be payroll to take care of, etc. Such documents would go some way towards establishing that actual business has been conducted here and would help document things like those supposed millions in preorders.
