bspm - BSPM CFO resigned.
BSPM CFO resigned, not a surprise to me.
Just for a quick visual, here is what I got for numbers that first raised suspicion with the annual report for me regarding cash/equivalents, interest income, and commitments....
BSPM:
Cash & Cash Equivalents Interest Income Commitments
2010 Q4: $13,211,443 $24,339 $26,700,000
2010 Q3: $16,554,185 $3,001 $1,418,313
2010 Q2: $9,663,639 $2,435 $1,389,681
2010 Q1: $8,642,418 $3,686 $1,389,681
Notice the big spikes in Q4?
You can double check the numbers here (Note 11 is where commitments are listed):

Note the big jump in interest income and commitments in Q4 vs all other periods in the year. Also note the cash balance was not a lot different than in the other 3 quarters yet the interest income skyrocketed. On the surface this looks suspicious.
Here's one possible explanation for what might be going on (as mentioned previously)-

This is all just my opinion. Everyone please verify things for yourselves and good luck out there.

Looks like the numbers table did not format properly so it is hard to read.
Good info, Avoidthegarbage. Any chance of you doing a follow up post on JBII? Still way down from where it was when you flagged it last year, but it's more than doubled recently.
