They've been on the Expert Market for many weeks now. Unless you live in Canada, or are a broker, you can't buy the stock. You can place a sell order but I doubt anyone is going to buy it. Once I placed a very tiny sell order, MARKET order, just to see what would happen, and sure enough they sold my shares for zero dollars per share. I also tried a tiny LIMIT order at $0.0001 but it never went through and on the Expert Market the orders can only last 1 day. That 15-12G filing allows them to not have to do their required filings. It's a good thing they filed it. They had just made a mistake when they initially filed the form which would have shut the ticker down, but they saved it when they updated that filing.

I've been involved in two tickers that had full blown suspensions (one by not filing the 15-12G) and they both eventually came back to life, a couple of YEARS later. For now, we're just stuck unless the company decides to either resurrect the ticker with all of their filings so it can be tradable again. I'm not even looking at it right now as it appears the OTC market could pop like it did in early 2021. Money has finally returned to the OTC. I'm focused on RDA$, GRL$, HMB$ and AXX$ for now, and longer term with IFU$ and IGP$.

Every couple of weeks I keep checking to see if anything is being built on Sutton Way in Grass Valley, but the last Google photo is still dated March 2024. I'll just hold my shares and maybe they'll decide to keep the public company alive going forward.

One other thing... I read somewhere that these silly OTCMarket rules are going to revert back to the old way around the middle on 2025. It's probably because it discouraged a lot of investors from trading all of the Expert Market tickers, which certainly must cost brokers a lot of commission.

I'm in an other one that went dark vhai and could go expert market they filed a nt 10q on Nov.15th and from what you say they have 15 more days to get current or goes expert today was the 15th day and still yield, I guess Monday it will happen unless they file. Is 15 days correct? TIA...

Nope, sadly I think
were fugged, LoL... ===>>>

very confused in what's going on, they are making money and not truly caring about their public company right now, very bizarre. will stay hopefully positive after my long overdue road trip that way

Maybe they can surprise us and get both the Q2 and Q3 reports filed by the middle of November, a mere 10 days away.

With all the common shares that Bennet and Jeff have, I thought they would be motivated to keep it public. The Expert Market doesn't kill it yet but 6+ months of silence certainly doesn't sound shareholder friendly.

Even if they go private, we should still see an offer for our shares, but if it's an offer from a tight knit group of friends, we'd probably be lucky to break even.

For now, I'm focused on IFUS for a long term play. They're hopefully only 4 months out from launching in earnest.

They've solved how to break down the lignin in sugar cane stalks which have been piling up in mountain size piles all over Louisiana for 100+ years. Their product is a cattle feed substitute called SGP+ that is dramatically lower in cost than hay while making cows healthy.

Within 16-20 days of starting this diet all flies disappear and the cow patties quit stinking. Finally, after a decade+ in development they a university is doing research on why it actually works so well. Plus the Louisiana state legislature is awaiting the results of the findings for the use of bagasse (the sugarcane stalks) which is due February 2nd.

They're also on the verge of partnering with a large cattle operation in India (500,000 cows).

The reason I'm in for a long term play is that the bagasse is in such high abundance that IFUS can sell their products relatively cheap, saving cattle farmers a couple of dollars per day, per cow!

And finally, the improved cow health dramatically decreases methane emissions. I've been slowly buying in as pivot points on Barchart are in the upper 5 cent range and we haven't quite pulled back there yet. First catalyst could be if they announce a final partnership with the Indian company.

Even if IFUS only signs up enough cattle farms with a total of 20,000 cows next year, at a dollar per cow, per day, savings to the farmer, and maybe a dollar to IFUS, they could still make $7 million annually. And get this, the worldwide cattle business is worth over $50 billion annually and India has over 300 million head of cattle. Potential is huge, IMO.

I was hoping to use BRBL profits to put in IFUS. BRBL isn't dead yet.

[Sirdaniels1]

never thought i would see them going this path to expert market, truly not sure they will stay public now and our shares will finish as a lose. Was a big believer too, I reached out to the CEO did not respond yet. why they could not let us know is mind blowing too me and all other longs.

[downdraft]

Sure would like to get super lucky here, seeing some kind of merger in the near future.

If I was going to take the company private, I’d sure want at at least $15-$20 million, at the very minimum, from a private investor group, providing enough funding to really scale the business.

Now maybe only 1 or 2 days left should I decide to buy more shares unless they drop those filings ASAP, keeping us from moving to the Expert Market. My cable tv stock is behaving quite nicely, however, so lately I’ve been adding more shares there instead.

[downdraft]

One more thought about your message - if the company is in some type of merger discussions, they might be in a required quiet period. Just a possibility; not investment advice.

[downdraft]

While we wait for who knows what or when, there is a tiny glimmer of suspense this weekend as the awards for the Great American Beer Festival will be live-streamed starting at 10 a.m. on Saturday. I’m assuming our brewery has entered the contest which is just a hopeful guess.

The taproom certainly appears to be crushing it but every large, well-known brewery that I’ve ever heard of has several or many awards in these types of competitions.

We could certainly use an award here as a catalyst to super-charge our growth.

[downdraft]

I can’t solve the puzzle either so I’m left with wild speculative thoughts. One thing that has crossed my mind is that they’re just quietly absorbing the shares from the remaining shareholders.

If they let the stock go to the Expert Market early next week, then most retail investors won’t be able to buy any more shares and some retail investors might throw in the towel, making more shares available to a private investment group.

Or maybe the quarterly news is good enough that they don’t want the stock to run until the Preferred A shareholders can convert their shares to common shares at 1/2 of the closing price, essentially giving them shares at $0.00005 per share. That should give the principal owners, as well as the promissory note lenders who have the Preferred A shares, most of the shares of the company, except for the small handful of retail investors as well as the shares that could convert from remaining convertible note holders.

Or, maybe they just need one more week to announce a big, fat juicy deal!

Hope we don’t get burned. I’ve been caught in other stocks that found a way to screw over existing shareholders. That’s why I stay well diversified in OTC plays. We’re in need of some serious luck on this play!

[Sirdaniels1]

I agree on all that your saying, just cannot for the life of me understand why they can't get out a press release, they seem to be doing really well now

It also might be that some private investor group wants to step in and be a part of a future behemoth brewery if that group contributed enough funds to buy them out.

I've mentioned before that the promissory note lenders could be a part of that group, creating a closely knit group of friends and associates who would own the company without the hassles of running a public company.

But first, remember this is pure speculation and not investment advice. I am not a financial advisor so it's essential that you do your own due diligence.

Anyway, if I was one of those promissory note lenders who saw the success of the taproom after such a short period of time after opening, along with seeing the growth in beer sales via the new distributor, it certainly would make me believe that the company has the skill set to grow the company into a behemoth regional and nationwide brewery, if they had the proper funding.

So since BRBL is proving their success, those investors might be dreaming big about becoming early owners of a very large brewery someday.

Who knows how it's all going to play out, but from my perspective I might only have less than 2 weeks now to buy more shares in the event the company gets bought out, in case they end up up on the Expert Market in advance .

If the company wasn't firing on all cylinders, these thoughts wouldn't even come to mind.

Let's step back a second and think about the large hospitality franchise company again. If they do even exist, they too would have seen the stellar success of the first BrewBilt brewery, which should give them confidence that a microbrewery franchise might indeed be a very good business investment, especially since microbreweries in general have proven to have better profit margins than franchise based restaurants, and there are many deep-pocketed investors always looking to buy into a new franchise operation.

Plus, business loan rates have now started to fall so if they spent the next 1-2 years building franchises, then this pending recession could be over about the same time that the microbreweries started opening up.

Just food for thought.

[downdraft]

Sure hope they surprise us with stellar news in the next couple of weeks, but they did let the sister company go to the Expert Market and it's like it doesn't exist anymore without a web site.

It feels like they've tired of running public companies along with all of the expenses for all of the filings. Feels like they might go private.

However, I always thought that top management was getting their $200k+ annual salary via all of their convertible debt at the sister conpany so where would they get that money from going forward?

It's so strange since the brewery itself is seems to be firing on all cylinders. A long shot would be that a large private brewery would step up and buy them out, but maybe not if they were a public company since a certain key brewery is privately held and might not want to acquire a public company.

Plus a key brewery that I'm thinking of made their first ever growth-by-acquisition play earlier this year, and it was a private company. This is such extreme speculation that I won't mention any names.

Since I have other stocks that I found earlier this year, I'm not overly tempted to load more shares before/if they go to the Expert Market, especially since we haven't heard a word about a larger brewery or anything about microbrewery franchises.

[downdraft]

The company better get their tail in gear! They now show a Grace Period symbol on the OTCMarkets.com web site. That only gives them 15 days to get their filings in before getting kicked to the Expert Market. Who knows what they have in mind.

The problem with the Expert Market is that I can't buy shares in the U.S. during that period and if they announce big deals while on the Expert Market the stock can run before it reopens for trading in the U. S.

Guess I'll have to focus on my other 3 high risk lotto plays for now - AHRO, IGPK and IFUS. My time frame for a possible substantial move on those is 1 month, 15 months and 4 months, respectively.

[downdraft]

Just looked closer into the details of the 12g-4(a)(1) filing, via the search results from Cornell Law. Looks like they bought themselves an additional 60 days to file by amending the filing.

Otherwise, they were looking at a termination of the registration of the security within 90 days of the original filing. At least that's how I read it as a non-legal expert, nor financial advisor. Just my opinion. Check section b on Cornell's web site about the 12g-4(a)(1) if you want to take a closer look.

Several new outdoor photos on the BrewHaus Instagram page (brewhaus_nc). I could never design a place that looks so nice.

[downdraft]

Insiders have lots of shares, giving them lots of incentive to grow the company. Tap room is firing on all cylinders. Promissory note investors must be encouraged by the outcome so far. I'm confident this team can now get much larger, non-convertible, loans going forward, even if it's just more funding from the promissory note lenders.

I do wonder if the sister company will close their doors since the brewing company should be more enticing to grow with better profit margins.

The brewery is still very young!

[Sirdaniels1]

biggie in my opinion. they seem to be doing really well at the tap room. Would be nice to see a updated press release

[downdraft]

BRBL just amended their most recent filing, essentially unsuspending their requirement to file. Should see the 10-q shortly, hopefully. Maybe there is a nugget in the filing.

[downdraft]

Guess we just have to wait. Meanwhile, I'm focused on A-H-R-O, a streaming play landing some big deals and about hit their first real revenue in Q4.

[Sirdaniels1]

looking good, they are doing things top notch, wish they realize they are still a public company and should get out a press release for us

The BrewHaus got some new television publicity as you can see in this Instagram post.

With the tap room going full steam during the tourist season, the company should be doing just fine. They may be just swamped busy. They have beer festivals to attend, new beers to make and they're always throwing some type of special summer event at the BrewHaus.

Plus, the promissory note lenders must be happy since there should be plenty of cash to make the monthly payments to them. Heck, management might be ready to talk them into loaning the company several million dollars this time around to grow the business even bigger. I got to give the company an A+ for a successful design and launch of the tap room so maybe those lenders would jump on board to help build a much bigger company.

I still think somewhere in the Nevada City/Grass Valley region the company will build a much bigger tap room/brewery that would be more like a tourist destination. The current tap room is pretty cool but it's just the size of a gas station with a large outdoor patio.

What I'd like to see is a Cabela's size building that seats 150-200 people inside a much grander style building. They no doubt have to skills to do it from my perspective. I still plan on being here with millions of shares to find out.

[The Rover 64]

They are basically asking permission from the SEC to suspend their obligation to file and report as required due to their size and number of shareholders on record.

[Sirdaniels1]

I just talked to my brokerage about the form that they filed, it's basically get out of jail free card, or pardon lol There a small company and if they meet those requirements, they can have time to file later or not. Still a little confused, but on my end, it shows they are still trading.

[downdraft]

I'm still thinking about it since I saw it yesterday. On one hand it's good of course since they won't get suspended if they don't get all of their filings in on time. So maybe the quarterly is on the way but I'm not so certain anymore after the sister company has gone dark.

I've wondered if maybe they might get bought out or if they have intentions to take the company private, avoiding all the costs and headaches of being a public company. The logic from the buyout side is that the sister company never claimed any patents for their portable transfer unit that seemed to be pretty popular. So if they got rid of that company altogether, then a big company could just buy the brewery and kind of assume the ability to have those transfer units made by the brewing company without out having to buy all the bad debt at the sister company. These are just speculative ideas that came to mind and certainly not investment advice as I'm not a financial advisor.

However, if a big company was able to get exclusive rights to those transfer units, that would give the larger brewer a huge advantage since they would be able to transfer liquids faster, while their competition would no longer be able to get those units. What if all of their transfer operations simply made it 5-10% faster every day, essentially allowing them to make 5-10% more beer daily/weekly/annually. For a brewer that makes hundreds of millions in annual revenue, that would add a boatload of revenue to their annual sales, making it a reasonable proposition to buy out the brewery.

Another idea would be that the brewing company goes private. Since those promissory notes last year to the company all seemed to originate from friends and associates and not established lending companies, then between the common shares those promissory note lenders could get from their convertible preferred shares, along with the shares that the insiders have, that should give them more than 50% of the shares of the company.

Or, maybe they're just running late on their filings. Kinda really hard to guess the direction of this company as they sometimes follow through with what they say, and sometimes not. So I wait. Might take a couple hundred dollars off the table if I can and steer it towards I-F-U-S as a long term play. After 3 years I'm still not making money here.
