NEWS RELEASE THIS AM:
IF I read correctly this states the deal is completed as far as the acquisition portion of the deposit. I guess they now have an asset. It seems realistic to me that they would have to give 10 million shares at least because of the potential dollars/revenue involved. The company was diluted in terms of shares but not in value as far as I can see. Sounds positive to me. When I called this AM a few minutes ago bid was 1 1/2 to 1 3/4. We will see what happens I guess.
This is the email I received from Winchester this AM.
Hope this update is of great interest to you, it's a major event our shareholders have been waiting for. Please contact us with any questions you may have concerning this latest development with Winchester.
Sincerely - the Winchester Investor Relations Team
