Kaia,

Also, I believe the company did a private placement last year...a convertible (convertible at a discount to market) which is in all likelihood placing pressure on the stock as the private placement investors are converting/selling.

I looked at the most recent 10-k and I found this private placement. You are correct about it being at a discount to market. I have a feeling that the worst might be over however. There are only a 2000 some odd preferred shares left from what I could tell from the earnings report. The weighted average shares this quarter was up a little but not too substantially. Hopefully, the converting and selling is over and the company can get down to some real growth.
