Dave: Thanks for reminding me. The other item that the author fails to take into consideration (as with ignoring the most recent sales figures of max 32% from largest customer) is that Vitech's provision for bad debts in this past quarter was 4.5%.
I agree with you that this was a hatchet job. If true, he is onto some very incriminating stuff here; but he damages his own credibility by painting the numbers and ignoring most recent quarterly financials.

Your post a few days ago is even more appropriate now. "Where are they going to get the 12 million"?
