I agree especially with the good possibility of many of the non reporting companies now have a good chance of being sent down to the pink sheet category which almost no one will touch no matter how good or cheap it seems. Another possibility the companies might not want to report is that if they do then in the future they can be held liable to lawsuits.

Jimbo,
Your idea is sound -- some companies are just not willing to spend the dough for an audit until they feel that it will benefit them. What is the point of putting out audited financials telling the world that you suck, so to speak?
There is a damn good reason now, but I would not shut down discussion of a company because they have been non-reporting.
I should be biased in your direction having been screwed and lied to by PLRN/ICCN over and over, but there are good stocks out there that do not yet report -- think you own one... FAMH.
I tell one thing I have learned to be leary of -- companies that are majority held by the principles -- they can do anything they want without a vote. Shareholder meetings mean nothing. I realize that most of the BB compnaies are 51% held inside, but I would love to find the ones that are not -- that would be a company where everyone's vote really mattered.

Jimbo,

I agree with you on the subject of reporting. I only plan to invest in companies that report or have publicly announced that they will be reporting in the near future.

Jimbo,

I own a few stocks that are currently non-reporting due to lack of revenues (start-up companies). I spoke with the company management and was told that they have a certain amount of time to report (I believe it was 6 months), and they plan to do so.

What are your thoughts regarding start-ups who plan to report?
