Osirium Technologies – body of 2022 results statement misleads; omitting “and raise additional capital” included in Going concern notes!

By Steve Moore | Thursday 23 March 2023

Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Previously writing on company describing itself as “a leading vendor of cloud-based cybersecurity and IT automation software” Osirium Technologies (OSI), in January with the shares at 3.8p I concluded that it was still cash burn and thus only a bailout fundraise for now. The shares last closed at 2.6p and are currently further lower on the back of full-year results... which have a main body of the statement omission disgrace.
