Unless they have come up with a different handle, the guys humping GSBC did not manage to list on the NASDAQ over the counter board today, as an enthused salesman told me last week was going to happen.
Well … now where am I supposed to spend my life’s savings???
This is particularly disappointing because in trying to get their OTC ticker I came across their investment memorandum from January, which clearly states (but apparently just for sophisticated investors) that this digital signage rocket of a company is forecasting year one revenues of $271,500,000.
Golly!!!
But on sober second thought, maybe I should be disturbed by that number – given the company is forecasting revenues of $43,000,000,000 within five years. With that number in mind, $271M would be kind of limping out of the gate.
UPDATE: I read the financials a second time and realized I had the year one numbers wrong. $271,500,000 is not the projected revenues, it’s the profit! Year one revenues are $543,000,000.
