Did you miss the whole thing about forward looking statements ? They are obsolete nearly before they are spoken or printed. Things change. And Mgt has no responsibility to immediately inform everybody.
MicroVision (Mgt) was handed a gift by the stock market.....a PPS that allowed raising substantial funds with relatively little dilution. A no brainer. And it is a no brainer that the potential fire sale negotiation (or attempt to convince somebody that MicroVision has much greater value than previously demonstrated), has morphed to the ability to keep operating to demonstrate (or attempt to) the value proposition, before (if they still do sell) accepting a buyout offer. In other words, they can afford to wait until conditions exist that would garner a better buyout offer.
Counting the days since a previous announcement to prioritize selling the company, doesn't make sense, or needs to be reconsidered in light of subsequent news and changes in the business's financial situation. The window for making a sale happen (if they still want to sell), has expanded well beyond the window perhaps initially envisioned (by Mgt, or investors).
