Share Structure ~ another benefit to this investment.

When occasion calls upon (meaning the nature of such an event itself is rare) the OTC/OTC BB market as a home to some operating and established companies -- investors are immediately attracted. The unfortunate case, more often than not, is that these companies also exercise their capital raising alternative in the market -- or in other words dilute, which not only leads to a drop in the price per share but also contributes to the build of a heavy share structure. The aftermath of such an event is rarily short-lived. Investors are forever stranded in a security that has little hope in seeing the figures it saw upon lighter share structure days. And the process is a never-ending story, or a continous cycle, often one that becomes a nightmare when investors realize that with all the shares that the company has issued as of late, the security is no longer undervalued, but rather overvalued.

That, in short, is the importance of evaluating a number of circumstances before investing into a security. Has the company established themselves to a certain extent? Is their business flourishing? Does the company have potential for substantial growth by which one as a shareholders will benefit? And as it was intended to apply (above), is the share structure a reasonable one that will allow for the price per share to appreciate?

These select conditions are what distinguish the "gems" from the typical OTC stock. These circumstances allow investors to make sense of their investment and truly map out a general idea of what kind of returns the investment may potentially yield them. This is what makes stocks that incorporate all these formidable components a rare find. Observe Artfest International's share structure below.

Authorized Share Count: 500,000,000.
Outstanding Share Count: 168,763,003.
Float: ~ 60,000,000.

The 52-week high is recorded at 0.15. It was brought down to a low of 0.0003 on very limited volume. Similarily, little resistance exists throughout. There is no reason as to why this security should be trading at these levels, especially considering the company's operations, including reported revenue. The cherry on top of the icing is that Artfest International is a fully reporting entity. That means transparency is a given as plentiful information is up for grabs or otherwise available to all publically. The benefits just go on and on and on.
