Randy Liggett's questions to GULF RESOURCES (GURE) leadership • Q2 2023
Question
Randy Liggett, a private investor, questioned the company's continued reluctance to hire investment bankers and a PR firm, highlighting ongoing shareholder frustration and a stock price that fails to reflect the company's value, even when bromine prices were high. He also directly asked if Gulf Resources had received any unsolicited offers to be acquired or taken private.
Answer
CEO Xiaobin Liu, via interpreter Helen Xu, stated that the company has not yet engaged with investment banks because its key projects have not reached a stage where they can demonstrate their full development value, which is a prerequisite for productive discussions. Regarding buyout offers, Mr. Liu confirmed that the company has not received any and is not considering a sale, as management is confident in the company's significant long-term potential. Helen Xu also assured that the company website would be updated to improve shareholder communication.
