How can you classify a prediction as a lie? You could say it's unrealistic or delusional based solely on your guesses without having seen any financial data, but it's not a lie.

If they're saying "should turn a profit" publicly and their internal numbers say "almost certainly won't turn a profit", that prediction is, IMO, a lie.
The classification is based on the reliability of the narrator, itself based on its track record on delivering on its huge promises who will be delivered "Next years, second quarter"
