Resume: 0.22AUD$ penny stock is down 85% from 2008 at the same time company is profitable and growing, debt is not an obstacle to long term growth, micro market cap but their is very big market and they are diversified serving every part of it, over 40% of the shares are owned by company founders and current management, you don't invest in the dark, you put your money where their mouth & money is already is. It's safe to invest with insiders, not many stocks have this kind of insider ownership (almost all my stocks in this blog). This is infrastructure stock at the price of a box of matches. Once it will break correlation with the market, it will be too late. You decide.
