2008 dawns very grim. We have lot our primary mountaineering hero and there are no accounting heros. We condemn unconditionally the members of the New Zealand Securities Commission for its 25 August 2006 statement that the assumption upon which the 2004 Feltex IPO projected financial information was based "were consistent with the New Zealand accounting standard FRS-29 requirements for projections to be reasonable". Also of its elaboration by way of paragraph 61 of its elaboration of 11 October 2007 where it claims that the assumptions represent a largely no change scenario. There is noting "no change of adopting a 1% p.a. increase in total market sales on top of the high 2003 figure when the pattern of sales showed that there would be a 7% fall to 2005. Also a 1% increase in Feltex's sales due to increased market share is not "no change" when the company had been losing about 5% of sales annually because of reduced market share.
We have started compiling an index to help upgrade the site. People included are not necessarily villains although its hard to find an example to prove it.
