As I said - your interpretation - and you are entitled to it - and I would defend your right to that as vigorously as I could.
You must sometimes concede though that it is your interpretation and yours only - and I am sure there are plenty who would share your interpretation - just as there would be as many more that wouldn't.
You have a way of stating your interpretations as if they are gospel - we just need to keep an open mind until we have facts.
All I will say is that
"It is understood that Hardman had been talking to at least two other companies ...."
is journalist speak for unsubstantiated claims (believe me I know).
Good luck to you.
