Note that VLNC has been a developmental stage company now making the transition, as proven by the above publicly available news releases, to commercial enterprise. As such it now becomes a question of whether management can meet a forecasted end of year run rate. This is from a standing start of zero. Future earnings releases will prove, or deny, this aggressive goal.
