🎯 Investment Thesis

Based solely on this announcement, a neutral “HOLD” recommendation is appropriate. The announcement provides no new information to justify a change in investment stance. A more informed decision would require a thorough analysis of the financial statements to be discussed in the upcoming board meeting. Without access to those statements, a definitive BUY or SELL recommendation cannot be made. Further analysis warranted after review of financials from meeting.
