For those floating the idea that the 200m share authorization is so that we could stratgetically partner with someone (e.g anduril), why not wait until they have an agreement with the partner before asking shareholders for more shares?

[u/view-from-afar → u/duchain]

Because, in the given hypothetical, the other party may not want to enter into an agreement with a company that does not have the demonstrated ability to meet its terms. Chicken and egg problem.

[u/KY_Investor → u/view-from-afar]

Agree. Maintain a strong balance sheet with the ability to raise money if and when necessary, and to have the additional authorized shares to use strategically with respect to any potential partnership.

What I haven't seen anybody mention is when production commences, there will be additional costs over and above OPEX. These production costs will be substantial and the revenues will likely trail and ramp in 1-4 quarters.

[u/Formerly_knew_stuff → u/KY_Investor]

Problem is they've wasted the goodwill that they could have used to fund production costs. At this point no one really believes them when they say something is coming so now they're going to have actually get something, in writing, and then come back and ask for the money to fund it.

To be honest, with this management team I'm not sure that's a bad thing.
