VROT SEC Admin Proceeding for Financials and filings delinquencies:
http://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/2015/34-74459.pdf
I got a flyer in the mail about two years ago, that how I discovered them.
I am shocked that ANYONE still looks here.
Last time I peeked was last October.
This was quite the scam..... Best Wishes !

Looks like a inactive shell: http://www.knobias.com/individual/public/quote.htm?ticker=vrot
Noluck No luck LOL I have not looked at this company for a long time and have no idea of anything regarding them
Hey Seeker...
I noticed the VROT has not filed for bankrupcy.
Any idea what the gig is?? I thought I read that around
2007 or 2008 the new owners of the mine start paying
royalties back to VROT.
My candle is just about out....
Thanks for the update on vROT. I guess the June '05 release correlates well with the modest insider dump that occurred in March '05.
Oh welp, perhaps within another 5 years they'll develop a more significant number of customers (?) - in the meantime - just a whole lotta beautiful, white volcanic dust!

"I thought that I saw "new information" on their website this past week - in the form of a fairly extensive powerpoint-like presentation on their business model, plans, customers, pictures of the mines, bagged inventory in warehouses etc.. but now after realizing that none of the tel numbers are still active, I'm thinking perhaps it's all old and I just never saw it previously.
I sure hope they've not gone bankrupt but, clearly, it's not looking good for VROT!"
Here is the last news I read...
"Distribution agreement (not Bankrupt)
http://edgar.brand.edgar-online.com/fetchFilingFrameset.aspx?FilingID=3754362&Type=HTML
Not sure what to make of this.
When does to begin?
Kind of looks like they handed over 70-75% of the company for marketing and distribution. We get 5% royalty and 25% of their earnings. They fund it and market and make 75%."
Someone is making money. Not the shareholders....what's left of them.....

If you find out...let us know.
Their phone has been disconnected....
noluck I unloaded a long time ago. But will keep a candle burning out of curiosity. Maybe someday they will get there act together and make something of this.
ThSeeker
Mojo and Seeker,
Turn off the lights when you leave. Your stock price should shoot up now that I have unloaded my shares....
Peace
Does anyone have an idea what VROT's current A/S and O/S is at?
Also, when did they move off the bb's and onto the pinksheets?
TIA, still like the technology, but it's getting tough to figure out what's going on behind the curtain.

Buying stock now may be good but I bought awhile back and lost almost all of my investment and now they hand over 75%. I blew it here by investing to soon that is for sure.
But without something like this they would either have gone under or diluted so bad that original investments would have been worthless. Actually probably is any way.
Good luck to any new investor.

Looks like a flat-line for this company.
Last one out...please turn off the lights.
Any insight into where the company is headed?

No news worth sharing, other than the annual shareholders meeting (for the public company VROT) is scheduled for sometime in June.
Appointment of New Directors
(see News)
Wish they would get off the pot and bring in some substantial new orders. I can't understand why we seem to be stuck in the mud. I am really concerned about major dilution to get this business going. I've seen it so many times with startups. Just like this one, you get intial run up of price then while it takes 2-3 years to get the business going the price erode by 90% or more and OS are increase by 100 of millions and our intial investment is worthless. Man timing is everything when it comes to penny stocks isn't it? Would love to hear some good news to put my mind at ease. Being realistic I am down well over 90% and doubt if I will ever get that back. Hope I am wrong. Maybe once they get going new investors who time it right will make so good money. I still think the technology is a winner. Anyone talk to the company and hear anything worth sharing here.
ThSeeker
yes,..i just lost interest becasue i didn't see management creating any progression in their product and its applications. took my money and went elsewhere.
at the time i also held a position in ALMI. i placed this VROT funds into ALMI, which has performed.
nlightn....just curious...
You started this board about a year ago, and haven't posted here since. Did something happen that made you lose interest in this company ?
Just trying to get some info on this $%^* from any source that I can find.

The meeting(s) are today (2/19/05). Unfortunately, I was not able to attend like I thought. Just an FYI, as I understand it, the meetings today are not for VROT shareholders, but rather for the ValueXXXXX LLC's that provided funding for VitroCo/Hi-Tech/Vitrotech (You can find them in the latest Q). If I hear of any info regarding VitroTech that comes from the meetings, I will post.
When is the shareholders meeting??

VitroTech Corp. Announces Roscom Inc. Begins Production Utilization of Vitrolite
Thursday February 3, 4:51 pm ET
SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 3, 2005--VitroTech Corp. (OTCBB:VROT - News) announced today that Roscom Inc., a PVC (poly-vinyl chloride) compounder from Croydon, Pa., has begun to incorporate Vitrolite® into various PVC compounds for customer applications. Nick Lynch, Roscom's president, reports that "three of our important customers have found significant productivity gains by using Roscom compounds made with Vitrolite®. These customers include two extruders and one injection molder. This product enhancement for Roscom, coupled with the excellent customer service we have always provided, should continue to help to differentiate Roscom from other PVC compounders."
Glenn Easterbrook, CEO of VitroTech, commented that "Roscom has experienced both the benefits that its customers will receive from the addition of Vitrolite® to compounds, as well as the productivity enhancement Roscom has achieved in the operation of its own extrusion lines while manufacturing its compounds for sale. We expect that Roscom's production consumption of Vitrolite® will grow dramatically from its initial 40,000-pound order, as its own technical staff improves existing product formulations taking advantage of Vitrolite®'s various benefits."
About Roscom Inc.
Roscom Inc. is an industry leader in flexible and rigid PVC manufacturing and distribution. The company produces high-quality compounds for a wide array of extruded, injection molding, and sheet applications including medical, automotive, electronic, construction, and plumbing, just to name a few.
Roscom and its technical sales force are confident they can provide top notch technical support to both new and existing customers.
In addition to its current manufacturing abilities, Roscom plans to embark on an expansion. Roscom will be supplying a Vitrolite® concentrate to enhance productivity and appearance in applications using a variety of thermoplastics such as polyethylene, polypropylene, ABS, styrene and nylon. These products will be used in extrusion, injection molding and blow molding processes.

"Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company also agreed to (1) carry out a reverse stock split within ninety (90) days of closing, (2) permit the investor to appoint an observer to participate in Company board meetings,
(3) grant to the investor a right of first refusal with respect to future financings, and (4) pay legal fees of the investor in connection with the transaction, not to exceed $25,000. "
noluck I seem to miss that. Where does it state RS?
Thanks
Attending a shareholders meeting, middle of February.
I hope to get some questions answered there. Will advise after that.
Here is the "Kiss of Death"...
Did you notice the agreement for a REVERSE SPLIT WITHIN 90 DAYS OF CLOSING??
I have NEVER been thru a RS that turned out well. Any thoughts? I only have 5k shares....wonder how many that will reduce to in the near future....
news: VitroTech Corp. Completes Private Placement
...Bill Corbett, the CEO of The Shemano Group, said: "We are extremely excited to be associated with this company. We truly feel that VitroTech has validated their scientific breakthrough and believe that their future looks very promising."
...Glenn Easterbrook, interim CEO of VitroTech, stated: "We are pleased to have completed this funding, and by the investor's belief in, and commitment to, our vision. We expect to be able to attain the sales milestones to draw the balance of the funding committed. We believe that this funding, along with the streamlining of operations and re-focused sales strategy, will position VitroTech to achieve growth in sales and profitability."
I'M GOING TO HANG IN HERE. Still believe their technology has great promise. And I'm glad they were able to secure financing to continue their business plan. They have a lot of marketing to do.

Seeker...
I'm right there with you. Been in since Summer 03 (prior to going public), plus I took on some shares right after they split last spring (i got too excited too soon). I did anticipate a bit more strength in sales by now, but as long as they do it the right way...and I stress AS LONG AS...then I can wait.
Spoke to Investor relations
I spoke with Walt Carlson VROT's Investor relations man. He gave me an
overview of where they are. Still sounds like significant sales are still
a futute event. Not much new information beyond previous PR's regarding restructure to direct sales to the biggest potential customers etc.
They will continue to struggle with financing for the next 1-2 quarters (or mote) with the hopes of seeing revenue from sales to begin to pay their way mid 2005 of later.
The 10Q report will soon be released. But based on what I heard there is not a lot to look forward to yet. So I don't think it will get very exciting here for quite awhile. It will continue to take a lot of work to get their products accepted on a large scale. They are not really at the "word or mouth" stage
where the industry is abuzz about their product.
It does sound like they are successfully demonstrating the benefits of their additives but there is no sales momentum established yet in getting the marketplace to adopt their products.
We are still in the very early stages of introducing this to the industry so we as investors must understand this will take in my estimate 6-18 months to really get exciting.
Unfortunately I invested to soon. I'm down about 70%. A buy and hold from this point may be quite profitable but for those looking for a quick turn profit forget it IMHO. Maybe a pump newsletter may produce some short term spikes but sustainable PSS rise isn't likely to be seen until later next year.

This company is VERY quiet. Anyone have a tidbit to share?
more finiancing prs:
VitroTech Corporation Announces Agreement to Amend Mineral Purchase and Royalty Agreements
VitroTech Corporation Concludes $3 Million Credit Facility
Good news is that they have more favourable terms for their existing agreement, and $3M credit to keep the business afloat.
Bad news is that the company continues to burn through cash setting up it's business. The credit also allows the creditor to dilute the O/S further.
Bottom line is that without a steady revenue stream, the pps will continue to erode, at least in the short term.
finger is off the trigger again, but watching....
m-ojo
good news for sure, company set up solely for vrot. I love the technology and potential. It's like a magic potion.
I am concerned about some of the financing around the company. Will they need to dilute the pps to stay a float, and what is the arrangment to pay out the $450k owed to the ex-ceo?
I was orginally in at $2, but pulled out when the chart was looking weak. At a almost 1/10th the price, I think I'll look to buy in for at least my original shares.
Being patient though.

News is out. Ball begins to roll.

"VROT maybe an example of the "deathspiral" where further and further rounds of share dilution is required to raise money until there is sufficient revenue generated. (see current PRs for 10QSB)
In my opinion, another stock that has potential but painfully diluted is CDIK (Coronado Industries). If either one of these gets to the $5 range.....I'm moving to the islands and retiring!!
Noluck
VROT maybe an example of the "deathspiral" where further and further rounds of share dilution is required to raise money until there is sufficient revenue generated. (see current PRs for 10QSB)
Unfortunately, dilution = a rapidly dropping pps, especially when investors do alittle math and see how much dilution maybe required to raise sufficient capital.
If this drops much further, the spectre of naked short selling becomes a possiblity causing further downward pressure.
vrot is in a tight spot here. Hopefully they can generate some revenue and positive PRs soon.

Form 10QSB for VITROTECH CORP
Looks like due to the restructure/focus of their business plan the financials don't look so good. This could be why the PPS dropped. I think the changes are the right thing to do but will take time to get revenues rolling in. Also as always with a start up future dilution is a concern. Long term I feel this one is a good investment. The question is how long and when to enter. Had I seen the 10QSB before I bought I may have waited. But I am in and plan to hold unless I see a problem.
http://biz.yahoo.com/e/040823/vrot.ob10qsb.html
I don't have the time to check my source, but from memory, I believe vrot hired a PR company to do a mass flyer mail that recieved shares in exchange. Those promotional companies often just dump their shares on the market regardless of price and move on.
Very possible that VitroTech is talking about these promo companies.
m-ojo
I actually spoke with a guy at VitroTech yesterday. One of my main questions was: Why did the stock drop from two something to what it is today? His answer, not in quotations, but in a nutshell: They offered several companies stock in VitroTech and those companies, instead of keeping the shares, simply sold them and got their money. This caused a huge drop on the price of a VitroTech share.
I personally feel like the company is going somewhere, so with 40,000 shares at stake, even pennies make a difference. I have looked at every article I can find on VitroTech and found nothing the lead me away from them.
I will be sticking with them for a while too...
Chad S
Reason for PPS decline?
I don't have a clue. In my OPINION only, I expect 2.00 and EPS @ 0.0 by February, then + profits for first half 2005. I should say "anticipate"...not expect. What is my basis? Pure speculation on data that has been made public. Regardless, I intend on riding this one for a while.
