They can pretty much do what they want with no buying pressure. IMO.
I was wondering why the PP would drop in light of the recent news. It looks like they are shaking the tree to get some cheapies, or to cover their short positions because they know this thing is going up.

Palomar Enterprises Completes Retirement of 350 Million Shares of Common Stock
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRNewswire
09:00 a.m. 08/22/2007
CARLSBAD, Calif., Aug 22, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Steve Bonenberger, CEO and President of Palomar Enterprises, Inc. (PLMA), today announced that the Company has now completed the retirement of 350 million shares of common stock. This number also represents a retirement of well more than half of the total number of shares outstanding. The stock was converted back to preferred stock, which drastically reduced the common share Float. The reduction of shares outstanding is reflected on the Company's latest 10-Q which was recently filed.
"We have completed the process of retiring 350 million shares to treasury and expect to announce further measures to reduce the number of shares outstanding within the next week or so. This is being done in the best interest of our shareholders as well as our Company. A reduction of shares outstanding by these means will increase shareholder value in our Company. As we said many months ago, we would not do any more reverse splits of our common stock to reduce the number of shares outstanding. We will always use other means rather than those that erode our shareholder's value," commented Steve Bonenberger, CEO and President of Palomar Enterprises. "We are serious about growing our Company and I think these measures plus the numbers on our 10-Q will reflect that," concluded Bonenberger.
If anyone has any questions, please feel free to email Brent Fouch, COO of Palomar Enterprises at brent@palomarenterprises.com. Mr. Fouch will be more than happy to explain Palomar's strategy.

Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS.
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Yeah, it was 2-3 years ago, though(the R/S's). Not worried at all about that, especially since they just put out that shareholder letter specifically addressing that. I am pretty sure once they have PR'd they have officially retired the 65% of the shares from the OS, you will at least hit your average. Could be what the market is waiting for.
Took a small position at .02 (Ugh!). Management's story seems good and their intentions seem honorable, but I hear stories of previous companies they have pumped and dumped only to reverse split into oblivion and roll everything into another stock symbol. Do you have any knowledge of these activities?
You sound like you have been in this one for a pretty good amount of time. How long you been in PLMA? What is your average? TIA.
I'm listening! Just not much happening as much as management tries. Too bad! Seems that they want to do the right thing, but what they're not doing is showing us the money! They state that revenues are up, but what about expenses. Unless they can show us that they are willing to personally sacrifice financially, shareholders will not be willing to invest.
glta
Forget it my level 2 now shows .006. Not like anybody else is listening, LOL.
My level 1 says bid is at .006. My level 2 says it is .007. What are you guys seeing? TIA.
Palomar Enterprises Issues Update to Shareholders
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRNewswire
09:00 a.m. 08/01/2007
CARLSBAD, Calif., Aug 01, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Palomar Enterprises, Inc. (PLMA), announced today that The Company has provided the following update to the business of Palomar Enterprises.
We are now providing our fourth update to shareholders over the last seven months. This is an update to our shareholders on the status of all of our businesses and our strategy for the next several months. The market for our stock has been difficult since hitting a high of .048 back in early March of this year. We have decided to take steps that will benefit our Company as well as its shareholders. In this update, we will lay out our strategy and answer as many questions as we can.
All of our businesses continue to grow at a very good pace. This will bear out in our next quarterly reports to the SEC. We have decided to adopt a strategy of building value for our shareholders by restructuring our capital structure. Last week, we announced that 350 million common shares would be converted back to preferred stock and retired back to treasury. This will effectively cut our number of shares outstanding by 65 percent. In the near future we expect to announce further measures to reduce the number of shares outstanding in the stock of Palomar Enterprises.
With regard to revenues, we expect Palomar to generate more income this year than in The Company's history. Currently, The Company has in excess of $13,000,000 in Real Estate Inventory that is on the market to be sold by our licensed agents, which will translate to commission revenue for Palomar Enterprises.
Foreclosure Business: We are concentrating our efforts in the real estate foreclosure market in various locations but are focusing specifically on the lucrative areas in southern California. We are also expanding eastward into the Midwestern US. This business is growing rapidly and we expect to see strength for at least the next 3 to 5 years.
Stock Dividends: The Company has paid out two dividends of free trading stock to its shareholders and we expect to pay our next dividend of the common stock of The Blackhawk Fund Media later this year, which will be announced shortly.
No Reverse Splits
As mentioned in our last three shareholder updates, we have no intention of doing a reverse split or anything else that would decrease the value of our stock. In fact we are working in a direction that will eliminate as much stock as possible over the next few months.
Questions and Answers:
Q: Why is the dividend of Blackhawk Fund Media shares to Palomar shareholders so small?
A: The dividend is meant for long-term shareholders of Palomar. Over a period of a year, each dividend payment will add up to a significant total for those that have a decent position in Palomar. We expect that over time, Blackhawk Fund Media will increase in value as well. Finally, if we paid out a large, one-time dividend most people are likely to buy Palomar for the dividend then sell Blackhawk as well as Palomar. In other words, this is a way to pay a dividend to our loyal investors and not just traders of the stock.
Q: You announced the retirement of 350 million shares last week. When might we expect that stock to be out of the market and into retirement?
A: The retirement of the shares is two-part. First the stock is being converted back to preferred shares as it was before. Then we will report the adjusted outstanding common shares in our quarterly SEC filings, which will reduce the outstanding common shares by 65%. This reduction of shares increases the intrinsic value of each share held by shareholders. The process will be completed within the next two to three weeks.
Q: Is there a significant short position in the stock of Palomar?
A: We are determining that now but believe, given what has transpired over the last few months, there could be a significant short position in the stock. We are implementing several measures over the next several weeks and months to force the short positions to settle their positions. In most cases forcing shorts to cover only works for a short period of time. However, we believe that by remaining dynamic with our plans for the Company as well as the stock, it will make Palomar a very hard target for shorters.
Q: Are we to expect the business of Palomar (foreclosures) to continue to grow and if so, how long?
A: We believe the foreclosure market will continue to be strong over the next 3 to 5 years. We also expect our revenue stream and profitability to continue to grow over the next 5 years. Our coastal development projects continue to yield high margin of profits, which we see increasing as the real estate market improves.
Q: How does The Blackhawk Fund Media's business affect Palomar?
A: Blackhawk is a wholly owned subsidiary of Palomar. Blackhawk's revenues and profits are applied to the bottom line of Palomar. We pay a dividend of Blackhawk to Palomar Shareholders as well. We expect rapid growth of Blackhawk's business over the next few years. And, we fully expect both companies to do extremely well financially and in the market place too.
Q: What other means are you using to lower the number of shares outstanding?
A: We expect to announce further measures to lower the number of shares outstanding next week. We are finalizing that strategy right now.

C'mon NITE, raise your ask and buy DOMS shares. You know you want to....
Gotta love those 100 share prints. Hmmmm....
Looks like we've got a real pressure cooker going on here. Just a little bit of volume would be nice...
Nothing moving - all the shares taken out of the market?
I am happy with 30-40% a day.
Better strap-on the seatbelt next week.
This thing will go up like a rocket.
Sorry about your luck, I am up 100% so far, so PLMA has been good to me. GLTA(except shorts)
I added to my position so many times I really don't know
but I am down about $800. This is based on researching all
of my statements over several years. Had 1M then a reverse split, bought myself back up to 1M then I believe there was another reverse split. I now own 1,000 shares. The (-$800) is based on commisions, reorganization fees (ticker symbol change) etc. I deserve a break! I have remained with this stock thru it all! Have yet to receive any dividend. IR never responds to email. IR doesn't respond but they are retiring all these shares!
i see this going on up with the less shares good buying time imoh
This is excelent - finally going back in the 0.2 area!!
Holy smokes we got us a wide spread...
Good Lord I sure hope nobody is short PLMA.......
WTF? Just 50K moved all those MM's off the ask? Look out above!
Whats your average?
Looks like they are finally doing something for the shareholders. I'm down $800 with this one. Have owned this
for over 3 years.
Level 2 looking great. Not alot of sellers, surprising considering the board sentiment. Is there anybody out there?
Seems like a good thing to me...
65% less shares meaning the value of the remaining 35% will increase by approx. 185%!
This last hour should be interesting. Any thoughts on the PR today folks? I can tell most of you hate this stock, but I would love to hear your opinions...

i hope they start this job again soon,...
I also have owned PLMA for a while and have not received the first dividend. I called investor relations and was told they are compiling the list of legitimate stockholders before distributing the dividend. Then they tried to convince me that it’s a great deal right now and I should buy more. No replies to any of my emails either. Not sure what they are doing.
Have owned PLMA since it was PALR. Still haven't received the
first dividend (for what it's worth). They have never answered
my email. Just emailed them again. Always get a response that they will contact me within a few hours! HA! HA!
it's trading now.
