brr interview Tue, 2 Sep 2014 10:30am - Anteo enters into additional agreement, page-15

Twin, it's not about a lack of patience or short-term thinking. I am a long-term holder and continue to be so. I am still optimistic about the company's long-term future, but you miss the point.

The fact is, you and many of us were of the belief that big deals would be signed by now. Indeed, the company was clearly of the belief it would be by round about now as well.

Today's board room interview suggests to me that we are still a long, long way off from achieving such a goal. The boss' demeanour was stifled frustration - far from the bullish nature we have seen in the past. My point is..... if the company itself is blindsided on its own timeline, it is reasonable that confidence will be shaken in the company's ability to eventually sign a deal and shareholders will reasonably ask if it will ever happen. It is a reasonable perspective to have.

I absolutely respect your position on the company, and your research and passion for the company, but surely credibility has to be tempered from time to time with light AND shade.
