Bismillah released news today and it is very discouraging. With only 5 million shares outstanding, there is absolutely no reason why there needs to be a share consolidation. If management feels the company needs a private placement they should make an effort to get BVN back up past the 15 cent minimum. On top of all of that, the current name is bad enough, the suggested one is truly horrible!
I know which way my 50,000 votes are going to be cast and I hope everyone else reading this feels the same way.
