المجمع متوقع تشغيله في سبتمبر ٢٠٢٦ ، متى متوقع تصل الشركة لنقطة التعادل ؟ لم تعلن ! قد يحتاج عامين آخرين (سبتمبر ٢٠٢٨) ، ولم تفصح عن سعة المجمع وهو الاهم لأي مستثمر !اعتقد ان الشركة بحاجة لتنفيذي فاهم القطاع يفكر بعقلية النمو اكثر من تفكيره بالعوائد الحاليه ، بهذا الطريقة كل ٥ سنوات ممكن تفتح مجمع او تستحوذ على مدارس، بينما المنافسين في كل عام مجمعين !
