MTRE is severely delinquent in filing their Financials and corporate filing obligations to the SEC. On Feb. 20, 2015 the SEC suspended 8 stocks from the Delinquent SEC Filers list, and it is likely that more delinquent Filers will be suspended.

Since Jan 1st, 2010 the SEC has suspended over 1290 stocks for Financials delinquencies. All of those Suspended stocks had their stock registrations revoked.

Shareholders should contact the company and pressure the Mgmt to file their delinquent Financials because ALL shareholders would be wiped out IF the SEC suspends the stock.

MTRE is on the list of delinquent filers:

Did the reverse split ever happen? I can't remember.

I still have a handful of MTRE and half my divvies of LFHE from the years of trading since Cable and Wireless. Haven't read the board for 6 months but watch L2's for activity. To me, no activity is great because there was no big dump of shares before volume dried up. I can wait forever on this entity to awaken. cheers

It seems that 53Chevy has disappeared. He hasn't posted here for ages, so I doubt that he is still connected to this company or that he would have any answers about their current status. My guess is that he was disappointed with the lack of results and sold out. Who's left now that knows what is going on with the company? Surely there is someone who talks to management and would know something!

PS I-Hub admin removed your last post for being off-topic. Not sure why it was, but I guess I-Hub has their own way of looking at things.

[SOROS]

I said to ask 53chevy, as he provided 98% of the positive information for so many months, only to disappear once things stalled and did not come to fruition. Anyone here think they can get 53chevy to make a statement about MTRE? After so much positive spinning, it's not that much to ask, is it?

Who removed my last post asking for this simple request? Did I break an IHUB rule?

[Quietness]

The I-box for MTRE (Market & Research Corp). has now been updated.

If there is any further information available on the company or its future plans, it would be of great interest to myself and to other shareholders, I'm sure.

Q

[Quietness]

Here is the previous content of the MTRE I-Box for reference. Most of the previous information seems to be outdated and likely not relevant to MTRE today. However, I have preserved it here for reference, before cleaning up the I-Box to make it current.

=============================================================

Some facts to remember from 53chevy:

To All:

Let's remove emotion from this play, brought on by the delays and the negative implications from sellers, and simply look at the facts of this play.

I state FACTS, because for every news release issued, the company put themselves on the hook by immediately following it up with an 8K or incorporated it into a 10Q or 10K filing. With the Sarbannes-Oxley Act in place, and officers signing off each EDGAR submittal, they have put themselves personally on the hook for the accuracy of every statement they have made.......

Facts: Share Structure
1) 150M Authorized shares, a 90% reduction from the original 1.5B, to preclude concerns over company/officer(s) dilution

2) A REG-D filing, probably a 504, will need to be submitted first to enable any conversion of restricted shares. Remember: this is NOT dilution when it occurs; there will be NO increase to the OS as these shares begin to enter the market. Companies are valued on their OUTSTANDING share count, NOT their float

3) There have been no Form 4 filings, indicating any sales of shares by insiders. In fairness, their Form 10 filing did note that officers are delinquent in updating both Form 3 and Form 4 entries, but a quick review of both Form 10 and 10K filings attests to the fact that officer shareholdings remain intact........in fact, many officer holdings have INCREASED. Officers/Directors of the company own more than 12 million of the shares restricted, as of September, 2009.

The above are all FACTS, as documented by EDGAR:
http://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?company=Market+%26+Research+Corp&CIK=&filenum=&State=&SIC=&owner=include&action=getcompany

Facts: DJIA for Stock Valuations
1) The current DJIA average for company valuation is >20x EPS (as of Q4CY09)
http://www.bullandbearwise.com/SPEarningsChart.asp

2) The current DJIA average for company valuation (as of Q4FY09) for companies listed under the "Services" sector is 33.79x: MTRE is listed under the sub-sector industry "Business Services", per EDGAR SIC notation, which currently averages 67.40x EPS
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/7conameu.html

My own personal research has shown:

1) OTC companies are typically valued @ 2-3x revenues (when revenue is present) and in the absence of profitable earnings (which is usually the case for MOST companies trading OTC)

2) Start-up companies are provided more latitude than "mature" companies, as it is presumed that their growth rates will outgrow the market average. It is therefore not uncommon to see OTC companies with true valuations based on 3x+ revenues

Putting it all together, emotion aside, look at what we have with MTRE..........EXCLUDING LHC/LHFE.........

Outstanding Shares = 27,741,070
$18.2M revenues: 2x = $36.4M, 3x = $54.6M (Consolidated revenues derived from LOI targets)
True Valuation range of stock = $1.30 - $1.96 (Even 1x revenues equates to better than $0.65 pps!)

$1.7M EPS = $0.061 per share (Consolidated earnings derived from LOI targets)
True Valuation of stock = 33.79x EPS = $2.06 (per specific sector), 67.40x EPS = $4.11 (per sub-sector industry niche) and 20x EPS = $1.22 (per overall DJIA avg)

Current Share price = $0.11
Current Market Cap = $3.05M
Current Market Cap as a percentage of Revenue is <0.2x revenues and only 1.8x EBIT!!! This is ALL based on 2007 Revenue & EBIT numbers. How will 2009 numbers, and 2010 projections affect these valuations?

Additional Company enhancements:

1) Uplisting (approved Q1CY09 on January 28, 2009)

2) Additional Acquisitions pending, which when closed will contribute additional revenues & earnings
> Company is looking to expand acquisitions (per filings reference).

3) Key Clientele: Sharp Electronics, Travelers Insurance, Hartz, A&P Grocers, Bayer Pharmaceuticals

All of the above is verifiable by information in the IBOX, Form 10 filing, 10K's, News Releases, and the links herein provided.......

So tell me again why we continue trading below $0.50 pps?

Don't sit on the sidelines watching and waiting for someone else to act! This is as much YOUR company as it is anyone else's! If these sellers wish to vacate, then let's help them do so, and put the shares in stronger hands! Let's work TOGETHER to get the pps back where it belongs.......

[Quietness]

I am amazed that no one has any opinions on this company!

Has everyone sold their shares and disappeared? Is there no information to be had from the CEO? What happened with the previous plans that have prevented them from being carried out?

I bought some shares of MTRE long ago and wonder whether I should have sold and moved on as well.

Someone ought to clean up the I-box.....

[Quietness]

I cannot seem to find any signs of life for MTRE.

It appears that MTRE has been abandoned.

By now any of the planned acquisitions are so out-of-date that they must be considered expired.

No filings since Dec 2010.

No one posting on this board anymore.

Is MTRE done?

[Quietness]

The information in the I-box for this company has not been updated for 3 years.... is any of it still correct or relevant? What has happened to 53Chevy???? Is anyone still following this company??

[Quietness]

Is there anything happening with this stock? Does anyone know whether the company/CEO is still around? Are there any future plans?

TIA
