My take on the hansen article on slowing growth
Bit long at the blog
Hopefully. HANS has taken a huge beating! I bought far off the highs which was at $68, but am now deep red myself...
KO earnings
should boost the sector

Thanks for your answers rtace. Thought you might have had this handy. I hope the pps goes up further and that the quarterly result will be good. Bought some shares last week...
Looks to me they be talking about Artisan Group
http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q/mh?s=HANS
I was also pleasantly surprised with the buyback program, not sure what the ARS is but i'll take a look into it
rtace, I was positively suprised about the stock buy back program. $200mio is a lot!
Now, some posters on the Yahoo-board were talking about ARS where HANS holds a longterm position. I have no idea what ARS is. Have you heard about this? Thanks for your feedback as otherwise I will have to dig this up myself.
I don't expect such a big drop to $25 unless there is something fundamentally wrong with the company. In any case, there should be a little rally on this one soon... It's really overdue by now. If it then drops furhter, no idea, but I have doubts we will see much lower lows.
Well I've I'm currently reading through the 10k
Seems Hansen has created some great market presence
But theres a few important new products HANS has begun production of namely the JAVA Monsters. I know from first hand experience these are being well received.
I think even with the increasing commodities this product will be
a surprisingly good earner next announcement.
For the pps i think it will approach the 25 then bounce back up
how high it goes will definitely be linked to manufacturing costs but with HANS growth may trump that card
What do you expect from the next quarterly earnings and where do you see the pps after that?
I like the future of the company
Think its time to rejuvenate the board
Well No interest on this board in awhile
Interesting News on this company
The Check Scam
Price down because of rising Commodities
however I think this is a good company

******HOT Information:
I did follow up myself and got a response from the CEO also. Yes, there is a large buyer who has been accumulating now from 70-80 cents up to current prices. The ease with which the stock took off tells me there is very little liquidity holding this one back.
I have uncovered a host of big winners in the past year. GROW at $7. HANS two years ago at $18. BOOM at $7. NVEC at $15. CHDX at $4. EFUT from $12 to $45. A host of 100% to 500%+ winners. i also found a little known OTC stock called FRPT at .80 that is setting new all time highs today at almost $12 on it’s way to $30. Jones Soda (JSD) in 2003 traded at .25 cents now about 10.00. Constellation Brands (STZ) (GREY GOOSE) from under 1.00 to now trading at 28.00+.
But, that is beside the point. The new great winner will be DKAM on the heels of the introduction of Trump Super Premium Vodka bearing Donald Trump's name. Not many people are aware of it.. You absolutely have to check the news train on this one. Even the Donald himself just said, "Sales are through the roof; setting records." And they are. In October alone, the company did more in sales just from Trump Vodka than they did from all business lines over the past 18 months. And they are set to go exponentially higher as the product has only been released in 4 states. It is smoother even than Belvedere and Grey Goose.
Red Chip has a 14 page research note out on the company. They say $1.40 at just SEVEN times 2008 earnings. With these soaring initial sales, they are way off. The company will do 50 cents a share in 2008, so even at the industry standard of 25 times EPS, it should be $12.50 minimum for this exponential growth and the additional products to come. I personally see it at $7.50 in 2007, so a 10 bagger minimum from here.
A note to the CEO asking what is up yields the response that a "known" party is accumulating a large block of stock because they like the product and where the company is going. More than likely a hedge fund that plans to runs the stock into the stratosphere. This buyer has close to a million shares now and is looking to buy over 5 million shares of stock. If my inclination is correct, this is a buyer for the company on the open market who just showed his hand.
Financials coming out around the 15th of December and the company say’s it is in the books on becoming a NASDAQ traded company. Keep in mind a few of the stocks listed above went to 10.00 as a bulletin board stock and still are bulletin boards stocks. Trump even has one of his own stocks trading at about 22.00 (TRMP) Trump Entertainment.
You cannot argue with what is going on here. The product is in super hot demand. An initial 4 state rollout led to astronomic sales and a $2 mil+ October which surpasses several quarters put together. Spot checks on distributors in an additional 10 states have shown the product to sell out more than a month ahead of schedule. November will show better results but will not be released because they are in their quiet period before earnings. This quarter is slated to come in at well over $5 mil in sales. Plus, an additional add on offering to the success of Trump is set for early '07. Newman's own you have to watch closely as that portion is about to go nuts. The stock is ready to explode now. With BUD picking up InBev and most of these DKAM insiders having ties to InBev, it is a given DKAM is a buyout target with consolidation in the sector. A recent conversation with the CEO yielded the result, "Yes, we are aware of a major buyer around $1.00 that loves the company and where it is headed." More than likely, a hedge fund has been accumulating for 3 months now with one goal in mind. Run it to the moon or be loaded in it when the offer hits the tape.
The question is whether it gets over $5, $10, or $15 before I retire, which should be any time.
I do know part of the initial "agreement" with Trump in exchange for a sizable number of shares, was to include Trump Vodka in a marketing campaign during Trump Apprentice 6 which airs January 7. You all know how it went for Home Depot and most specifically for the Pontiac Solstice when they were featured on The Apprentice. The Solstice was unveiled on Trump and it led to an immediate 2 year backlog. Word is filtering now that one of the episodes in January will be that very marketing campaign for Trump Vodka. Episodes began shooting just after Thanksgiving for The Apprentice in Los Angeles. The release of Trump Vodka was bumped up to Dec. 1 in California. I have a good feeling come January; we are staring at a $5+ stock.
The word is spreading. The videos are out. Forbes on it. Other forums hot for it. Also, Trump Vodka feature on The Apprentice for early 2007.
Good Luck.

Slide show from recent presentation- interesting and informative:
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/865752/000086575206000185/0000865752-06-000185-index.htm
In my opnion, it's quite undervalued. The lawsuits are frivolous - the bigger concern (as far as the market is concerned) is the "reason" for the lawsuits - the potential of options back-dating. This is the reason the stock is trading at a discounted PEG ratio. So many companies are dealing with this same problem, though, that it is becoming a yawner. The more people realize this (and MF has a nice article about the potential downside), the more are buying in.
As far as valuation goes, Monster's growth is amazing, and may get more so with the AB agreement.
why is hans flying given the lawsuits do you think?
Anyone lurking here? I'd like to get this board going with some constructive banter, and add some DD starters in the Ibox.
