The plant being rendered out of commission is certainly highly, highly material information by anyone's standards. Of the five 8-K's in the first half of the year while the breakage was being kept secret, not one clue was given that the plant was non-operational.
In January, the 8-K said they were reducing some people...
"The reduction plan was effective immediately and only included non-core function employees who were not primarily engaged in fuel production or processor sales."
...but made sure investors knew the core function employees engaged in fuel production were being kept. That would have been a good time to mention that the plant was broken and that those fuel production employees currently had nothing to do and would be useless for a while. The previous 'update' by PTOI had mentioned processor #3 was coming on line and production was going swimmingly. That 8-K kept the production story going and didn't mention anything about production coming to a screeching halt.
What did those fuel production employees do for six months?? Go to the processors and make oil gurgling noises and pretend to push buttons and pull levers to fool Mr. Heddle into thinking they were producing 'fuel'??
