I'm not smart enough to figure out how the rest of your paragraph changes the context of your first sentence but *if* you're saying that Mr. Heddle should announce that a number of companies are looking at PTOI's processor but only do so if it's true then I applaud you. I think it should go without saying that Mr. Heddle should put out truthful press releases.

For the record, I don't think there's anything really wrong with the CEO using puffery as long as the average investor can tell the difference. That puffery can act as a warning flag to other investors if nothing else. If, for example, Mr. Heddle says someone is interested in buying processors then it's an investor's own fault if the investor assigns value to that vague statement. However going through the length of a contract where a customer agrees to put down a $1M deposit with no intention of following through definitely puts that into 'sham agreement' territory. It makes a person question how Mr. Heddle like his predecessor Mr. Bordynuik, could be so gullible over and over and over when investors' money is on the line. How is it that he keeps falling for these fake deals and never catches on??...that's tongue-in-cheek because the reason he keeps 'getting duped at investors' expense' seems obvious to me.

Yes, I understand your penny stock also is the real deal, created with the inventiveness of Edison and destined to be the next Microsoft. Yes, I understand that the delays are also only because your company is making their product and/or technology even more revolutionary.
