Forward Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:FWDI) today confirms that it made a non-binding proposal to the Board of Directors of Solana Company regarding an all-stock business combination. On June 12th, HSDT responded that its board voted to decline Forward's offer and chose to not engage in further discussion. We are disappointed and surprised that the HSDT board has chosen to reject Forward's offer without any discussion or communication. We believe that opening up a dialogue is in the best interest of both companies and their respective shareholders.
