re APLN -
Wow - that was a great trade.
Same reasoning applies here, imo. If I can pick up some more cheapies, I will. May be a year or more before they get L2 again, but I have found that extreme patience often pays off.
Makes sense, I had one with a big spread and got a small fill 500 shrs at .085 bid, sold two weeks later at the ask 10.50.
Good hunting.
re APLN -
thank vic.
Say, I wonder what we can glean from the new name. I would imagine that the "AE" stands for "April Energy", which would probably mean we are still in the energy sector. Hope this time it's some kind of alternative fuel..
Not all together sure what the "Holding I" means, except that seems to imply there will be a "II".
re APLN -
thanks ragmuff.
I first did a little cursory DD on this stock back in 2007.
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=20509632
I have always dedicated a portion of my portfolio to very low liquidly plays like APLN that have very large spreads. I always surmised that the large spread could be a good indicator that the float is either low, or locked down. When I find one that I like, I put in extreme low ball limit orders and then just forget about it. Sometimes they fill, and then I do a little more digging.
Kinda sounds like a backwards approach, but when the dollars amounts are as low as what I am spending, it's pretty low risk.
Sorry I do not know how to past links…went to this site and found two companies that share contact info and web page APLN and APRIF, APRIF pps@$23.

Creede, good work. The financials, share structure and a business description are what I believe is needed for solicitation. Not sure if they need to be audited or not. If so, a simple audit should be ok, ala pre Sarbanes Oxley standards for the pinks.
It might be as simple as just providing all the info straight to pinksheets.com.
Vic
Doing some nice DD creede, I looked around for about an hour this morning and will keep going. No bid ask yet it may be a while but worth looking into.
What tell got you started on this one?
re APLN & Joseph Bartel -
well.... there is a WHOLE BUNCH of info on the Hub regarding Bartel. Seems his hand has been in many plays. I've only just started to look around and it has gone to extremes. One company (SMPP) has an a/s of about 5B, and as you can imagine, it's a triple zero sub. Another company, AVIX, has an a/s of 500MM, and it's trading in dollars.
I'm gonna dig some more just to see what else I can learn, but at the end of the day I wonder if there is much that can be concluded about the future of APLN, since once he finishes the merger, I would imagine he is gone.
Now, all of the stocks that I looked at thus far have been pinksheets. That kinda makes me think that they will not be taking APLN straight to the OTCBB, but instead are going file a Form 211 with FINRA to become solicited.
I believe to do that they need audited financials and a market maker willing. Right?
re APLN & Joseph Bartel -
here is a little Joseph Bartel DD.
First of all, he is in iHub iBoxes 4 different times.
re APLN & Robert Johnson -
looks like this guy might be just a domaineer.
http://www.domaintools.com/reverse-whois/?email=fd47bf15b8cedc3e03febe8c0eb8a762
Probably about time to do some digging on Joseph Bartel.
re APLN -
now the question is "WHO IS Robert Johnson?", since he owns www.goldenopportunityresources.com & www.aprilenergy.com.
He was not listed as one of the GDNO owners.
re www.aprilenergy.com -
re aeholdings.com -
yeah, saw that a few days ago. Already checked the whois, and I don't think it's related.
That's funny. Look what was created today:
http://aeholdings.com/
re APLN & April Energy Website -
funny I never stopped to check for an April Energy website.
look familar?
http://aprilenergy.com/
Need to do a whois when I get the chance.
re APLN as April Energy News -
cannot find a single news release during the time the company was April Energy. Did find this.
re APLN & Float -
great work!
That finally explains it. Post r/s that would put the current float at probably 750k. That's why they did not do a r/s. It's already been done!
No wonder it never trades.
No wonder asking prices were near $10 per share.
If memory serves, I bought all 15k of my shares at one time. That would mean I got them from someone used to have 300k.
OUCH!
OTCBB shows the 1/20 r/s ex date 6/3/05 and name change.
http://www.otcbb.com/asp/dividend.asp?sym_id=gdno
It may be that the o/s decreased to ~4mm and the merge out on 10/16/10 involved reissuing ~50mm shares to Bartel to gain control of the shell. Maybe for a nominal sum to Morton, et al.
re APLN & Share Structure -
hummmm. You seem to be correct. Only r/s I see is this one:
Security Notes
•Capital Change=shs increased by 3 for 1 split. Ex-date=6-1-04
Any chance it happened and pinksheets just missed it?
The reason I ask is because I have seen a lot of crazy spreads before, but .0002 x .62 is A LOT of distance.
Not to mention that at one point the Ask was $9. I know this because I was filled for about 2k shares @ $9!
Of course, the trade was voided when the market maker stole the trade from me!
I see no mention of Bartel in the last PR that Morton issued announcing the name change. I am also confused by the share consolidation mentioned in the release. It seems it never happened? (Plus it's worded wrong. Should read 1 share for each 20 share basis in a consolidation which is the same as a reverse split). Note the links to the old website are now hosted by a poker site, which you already found.
"Golden Opportunity Resources, Inc. Announces Name Change and Share Consolidation
MISSOULA, Mont., June 2, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Golden Opportunity Resources, Inc. (Pink Sheets:GDNO), a Nevada Corporation, announces share consolidation of its issued and outstanding stock and name change.
William Morton, President and Director of Golden Opportunity Resources, Inc., announces that at a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company on May 9, 2005, the Company has resolved at the meeting to consolidate the issued and outstanding shares of the Company on a 20 share for 1 share basis, fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole number. The shareholders further resolved to change the name of the Corporation to April Energy, Inc.
The name change and share consolidation will take effect at the market open on June 3, 2005.
Golden Opportunity Resources (Pink Sheets:GDNO) is a junior oil and gas exploration company focused on finding and developing undervalued oil and gas assets worldwide. Our plan is to build up a solid base of core projects that provide recurring monthly cash flows and on occasion enter into wildcat high risk/reward wells to add the potential of aggressive growth in our company for our shareholders. We are extremely excited about the future prospects of the company and look forward to growing the business with our shareholders for years to come.

re APLN & Shell Ownership -
turns out there are a couple of filings at pinksheets under the APLN ticker. The first filing I looked at was dated March 11, 2004 and pertained to Golden Opportunity (the company prior to April Energy). Here's what I picked up regarding the shares and ownership:
a/s 300MM (march 11, 2004)
o/s 45MM (march 11, 2004)
Float 15MM (march 11, 2004)
Ownership breakdown per the filing in march of 2004:
William Morton 9MM
William Strickel 4.5MM
Mike England 16.5 MM
Total 30MM
There was an Annual Report for 2004 made in April 2005, and the shares and ownership had stayed the same.
Now, I think that Joe Bartel entered the picture when it changed from Golden Opportunity to April Energy, but I am not 100% sure as I cannot find any filings or posts to prove it.
Company Notes
•Formerly=April Energy, Inc. until 1-2011
•Formerly=Golden Opportunity Resources, Inc. until 6-05
•Formerly=Regalsch, Inc. until 6-04
Now I just wonder if he still owns it now that it is AE Holding I.
One more thing I would like to note. Seems that the share structure from March 11, 2004 till Jan 5, 2011 did not change by very much in OTC terms.
Per Madison Transfer on Jan 5, 2010
a/s of 300MM
o/s of 52,753,510
That's a difference of about 7.75MM shares.
Will be very interesting to see where those shares went.

NewAge...
I talked to Bill Morton today and he seemed pretty upbeat about the future of this company, they hold the land and are planning a total of 12 wells on the property over about the next year to 15 months
I am willing to hold my shares until this property is drilled out and put on line, it is unknown and has a seemingly solid future ahead of it.

re APLN & Old Mergers -
re APLN -
well, I'm not sure. Is it that Bartel took the shell on 9/16/10, or that he was the last owner before the Merge?
I take it to mean that Joseph Bartel of Sarasota, FL took over the shell 9/16/10, the Effective Date of the last action of Merge Out. Vic

re "MERGE OUT" -
I have owned APLN for years now, and it has been brought to my attention they are on the daily list for tomorrow with a name change, but no r/s or ticker change. That caused me to check the NV SOS, and I found that it says "MERGE OUT". Does that mean they have merged with another company that is registerd in another state? TIA

re APLN -
thank you sir.
I've been trying limit orders for a couple of days now. I can place the order online, but so far nothing has filled. I've started as a low as .0025 and I have gone as far as .25 with still no fill.
To be honest, I am not surprised. Back in 2008 when I got the fill to sell (and then had it canceled) for $9.05 per share, the spread was like .01 x 9.05. Gotta remember that APLN was an unsolicited pinky before it went grey (which is basically two of the same thing except for the fact that now we don't have L2), and thus the spread has always been pretty much what retail has for sale.
From the time and sales we see that it only traded like 2 times in 2010. That would leave me to assume that there are simply no retail shares for sale at or below .25, and that the MM's don't have any either. I know all my limit orders to sell had expired, and I had not even bothered to renew them.
Can you believe that there has not been a trade in APLN since March of 2010, and that the total number of shares traded in 2010 was 280?

Have a test buy in at .25 cents. Nothing so far.
re APLN -
as of today, April Energy is now AE Holding I. The iHub board and chart has been changed accordingly.
I called my broker today and found out the new transfer agent for AE Holding I is Madison Stock Transfer. Their number is 303.422.8127.
I gave Madison a call, and they gave me the a/s of 300MM, and the o/s of 52,753,510. They would not give the restricted.
I asked them about April Energy/AE Holding I. They were nice enough to give me the attorney's name and number.

Now what?
re APLN -
not seeing any bid or ask. i believe the stock is grey.
I've tried several test buys to try to test the Ask, and thus far nothing. I've gone as high as .05. May go a little higher.
re APLN -
just called Hollday Stock Transfer. They are no longer the agent.
re APLN -
per the last filing, the a/s for APLN was 45MM.
I like it, but that was 2005.
re APLN -
holy smoke. thanks for showing me that.
No symbol or ticker change.
If memory serves, the float here is very small.

also, it's worth nothing that the stock is "alive" but trading on the grey sheets, but that does not mean that the company itself is "alive".

sounds great. Make sure to ask for the o/s and the restricted.

I have no idea. I figure it's a shell, but I really don't know.
