Thanks for your help. I see that END is on you favorites list. Is it still a favorite of yours? I was wondering what you thought of their recent transaction in Texas and then the redemption that just took place?
I have come upon a board for a stock that I like. It doesn't have a moderator on it. I was wondering if there is somewhere I could go to see the responsibilities of the moderator? Can be a moderator and still have a free account?
Thank you for the help.
I will be surprised if we have a current shares update tomorrow like we would like to have. They announced the buyback program on Sept. 24 and the end of the quarter was Sept. 30. IMO there would have not been any buying back at that point. IMO they will give the numbers required to stay current which will be Sept. 30.
IMO the board will be discussing whether there was any buyback until the next quarter filing is put out to know for sure. I would personally love to see the OS given for Nov 20, but IMO it will be for Sept.
I am staying strong and at least sticking around another quarter or two to get into the spring. I am just preparing myself for the OS to be around ~ 31.5B+. I think the filing will not be good, but I am looking for anything to keep my hopes alive.

(iv)Freely tradable shares (public float);

Thanks for your persistence and hopefully all this recent chatter is a sign of something good to come.
IMO they do not want to have all of their eggs in one basket. University of Carleton is not in the business to grow SYMW, SYMW is in the business to grow SYMW. Things can change and JD doesn't want to be totally dependent on one entity such as the University. This does not mean the University want get it done, but JD is not totally dependent upon them. This sounds good and smart to me.
He also said he didn't want to string one project after another and then try to connect them together. He hoped to have all aspects worked on and hopefully have them completed at about the same time. Then they would tie them all together to help make this process be a little quicker.
From what I gather there is more going on than I was previously aware of or thought a few months ago. They didn't start looking for other R&D since the University, but they have other R&D done, being done, and going to be done.
I have been pondering on waiting to buy more at 5, but not sure if I will wait until then. I too have the philosophy of not putting all of my money in one stock either. At this point I am willing to be patient and wait. I am not 100% certain it will run, but I am not going to be chasing it either.
IMO he has not forgotten about us shareholders. IMO he has been waiting for something with meat on it to PR.
He talked about pinksheet stocks for little bit today. When I said I am not concerned about having a fluff PR he said that it is necessary sometimes in pinkies to keep the people aware that the business is still alive and running. I think he is coming to an understanding that sometimes you have to keep interest in the stock by giving a PR ever so often.
I told him I was concerned about the share price falling and the possibility of dilution (look back at my previous post for dilution conversation). He said he was concerned about the share price too because he has a huge stake in the company. (5B+ shares if I am remember correctly.)
I specifically asked him if we would get a PR before the end of the year. He said it would be much sooner than that.
From what he said I think the biggest problem is the huge down turn in the economy making it much more difficult for a company like this to get funding from various places. He said he felt like this last year has been one of the toughest, but he felt like things were going in the right direction.
*****************************************************************
I feel like this needs to be said: I am not a pumper, I am not a basher, I am just an individual person trying to do my own DD. I came upon iHub recently and like the vast amount of information that can be found, as long as you can filter through some of the drama.
Having said that I am going to continue holding my shares at this point with this company. It is definitely a speculative buy because they do not have an actual product yet that is in production and they aren't selling it yet. However, the University of Carleton received government money for R&D. Government money is a huge thing IMO. Also SYMW is not totally depending on them, but continuing on with other R&D elsewhere.
I am personally happy with what they have done with this conversion. That have gotten around the anti-dilution to make them for flexible to buy potential upgrades to their company.
I found the conference call to be very intriguing. They said the total fully diluted shares was ~ 185M after this deal they just did.
They said very quickly they are going to become the largest independent oil/gas company in the UK. With the $15M purchase in Texas they are quickly spreading in the US also.
Here's the phone number for the conference call replay.
A replay will be available beginning at 12:00 p.m. Central Time on November 18 through 12:00 p.m. Central Time on November 25 by dialing toll-free 888-203-1112 (U.S.) or 719-457-0820 (tolls apply) (international), confirmation code 3694365.
I called the company today and JD actually answered the phone. I talked to him for about 15 minutes. I cannot remember everything he said, but I will randomly write some of it down here.
To sum up how I see this stock and similar to how I saw it when I bought into it: It is speculative (that is a pennystock for you) and it's going to take a little time for this to come to fruition. I am definitely willing to speculate and wait on this stock.
The interesting thing about the University R&D that I did not know is that is only one part of the project. SYMW is working on other parts of the project also elsewhere. He gave a lot of technical jargon to go along with it, but his hope is that the varying R&D will come together at about the same time.
There are multiple areas of R&D being done for differing things that they want it used for such as from the Sept 16 PR. "SymPowerco has identified extensive markets for Fuel Cell Hybrid Power Systems including golf carts, small industrial vehicles, three-wheeled taxis in the Far East (Tuk-Tuks), motorbikes and similar small vehicles."
I didn't quite understand which ones he was talking about, but he said they were about 2 years from an actual product being sold. There were others he was anticipating much, much sooner. That doesn't sound that far off to me. Actual production in less than 2 years.
He said the NDA is still in effect, but it didn't mean anything would be done with it. It would be dependent on what benefited SYMW the most when the time comes. It sounded to me like it this NDA is dependent upon the R&D.
Speculation on my part with this: Maybe the NDA has another company doing R&D also and the two will come together if they can work it out. He didn't say this though, just me thinking out loud, or by typing.
I asked him about dilution. He said the last year had been rough as far as getting money and grants for projects such as this company was trying to complete. JD said it was not his desire to dilute the stock if at all possible. One way they are helping this is only working with others by contract so they are not paying money to people for nothing. It is on a contract basis.
He also said if it was necessary to dilute it would be for R&D and continuing growth of the company and not to merely keep the lights on in the office. (???) JD said he had a lot invested in the company himself and he wants it to do well.
I asked him about PRs and I did not have a desire for a fluff PR, but with the current PPS continuing to decline that shareholders are starting to get antsy. He said he was really close to putting out a PR. He acted like he would update us on the R&D, the NDA (which again is still intact at this point), and let us know the company was still moving forward.
I am going to stop typing now, just felt the need to share this information with this board. I am still in long and strong. I feel like I am in on the ground floor, of course the pps has dropped some more, but at some point I will add more shares to bring my floor level down.
IMO a PR could come out sooner than the year's end.
Is anyone buying more at these prices with this news that another quarter of increases? My mind is starting to change on the potential of this stock very quickly!!
Anyone want to reel me in on this before I buy more after back to back increases in profit and a value of about .05 right now!
NEWS release. Looks like we have more GREAT news.

PPS is looking good this morning for maybe an increase. Trying to decide if I buy more now or wait for this news to wear off a little to see if it comes down.
IMO I think the pps can go up a lot on this news, but we have to wait and see what the market thinks of it.
I'm hoping for a big day!
I am going to call them later on this morning and try to find out anything I can. I will let you know if I succeed.
Looking at the guidelines for pinksheets on page 26 it says 45 days.
http://www.pinksheets.com/content/doc/ps/Disclosure/Guidelines/2.pdf
These guidelines show they were updated on 7-22-09. I wonder if it used to be 75 days and got changed to 45 days and the place I quoted yesterday hasn't been updated yet. Either way it is now clear that to stay current information they have 45 days and can get a 5 day extension or be moved off of current information.
Seems to me that pinksheets is not always reliable either.
The bad thing about this whole thing is it does make one wonder what they are now trying to hide from shareholders by not staying current information??
I don't understand when a company is current and when a company is not. I had always heard it was 45 days after the quarter, then I read it is 75 days. Now EFGU is not current, but limited information.
Email didn't get returned. I will send one more today to see if it gets anywhere.
I am not sure that it is a bad thing because getting to current information didn't change anything in the pps in the first place.
It must be 45 days to report for all of them, but I do not understand what the 75 days is now!
The other company that I have didn't report either and they are now Limited Information. One other one filed for a 5 day extension.
The thing I really don't understand is why go through all the trouble to become current to then immediately not keep it up. These pinkies can work on your nerves.
Having said that, there are a lot of companies with STOP as there status and they have a much higher pps. I didn't come to the stock because of the status; I came to it because the company is working on their goals. Getting the status and then immediately losing it is not good, but IMO the PPS won't be hurt more than about a tick if at all.
What do you mean by "pre-shareholders?" I am assuming you mean the ones who got any for a quick double to get out and then got caught at a higher price. The price dropped and they got scared because they had not done their own DD and understood the likelihood of a good 10Q was not very likely.
I personally was hoping it would have shown the 'delayed revenues,' but I was not holding the stock for that reason. It is never a good thing to trade on emotions, especially in penny stocks.
I am still here for three reasons: 1) This is going to increasingly become a hotter and hotter sector due to the attention the government is placing upon it. 2) DD shows the MDFI has a great product that will become more utilized or be desired to be bought out by a bigger company. 3) IMO government and/or private funding is going to come into this particular stock within the next year.
Can anyone tell me what the role of moderator is for these boards?
If this board doesn't have a moderator how did the news from yesterday get posted?
I am interested in seeing if this news stops the slow downtrend we have been in for a while. After the huge jump in April and then a little more in June it has been a steady decline.
The drop in oil prices definitely hurt a company like this, however, they have a lot going for them and I am thinking the redemption will help to add more value to the company because they are demonstrating a good track record of producible wells over the last year or so.
Also the decline in oil prices has flattened out and been on a steady incline again. Bad for gas prices, but good for oil stocks. The potential for this one to move up in pps is great IMO.
IMO this is a good "investment" if you are looking for something a little more long term.
I am merely talking to myself on this board, however this news they put out tonight sounds good to me! I am definitely going to try to get on that conference call in the morning at 9:00cst.
I might buy some more at these prices. It will be interesting to see where the opening and ending prices are tomorrow. I am very favorable with this company long term!!

I am learning as I go about how to read charts and what they mean. However, when/if news comes about government/private funding this thing will blow the charts out of the water.
I have done a little more research in the matter and it seems that to stay current information they have to file within 75 days of the end of the quarter. I have also emailed EFGU with a couple of questions. Has anyone had any luck communicating with anyone at EFGU?
http://www.pinksheets.com/pink/otcguide/categories.jsp
Companies must post the required disclosure on pinksheets.com. Pink OTC Markets will verify that a quarterly or annual report, in addition to an Attorney Letter regarding completeness of disclosure, has been posted within 75 days after each quarter ended and within 120 days after each fiscal year ended. If such disclosure has not been posted at that time, companies will be placed into the "Limited Information" or "No Information" categories.
I am not saying it will go that high, but around these prices they can jump really, really fast. Sometimes they jump for no reason at all. IMO it might start to climb as we get closer to the middle of December as we start anticipating the news that all of us want to hear.
Quarterly report is out for Sep 30. Outstanding shares is at 12,926,321. Does anyone remember what they were after the R/S? Wanting to compare the number from then to now.
http://www.pinksheets.com/otciq/ajax/showFinancialReportById.pdf?id=26151
At this point I am only talking about the 10Q filing that is needed to stay current information. I thought it was 45 days across the board, but to stay current it must be 75 days. That is what I am looking for confirmation on at this point that I am reading that correctly. It doesn't mean they have to wait that long, but that they have that long.
I guess the 75 days would make it Monday, December 14. Is this how others see it?
Looked it up on pinksheets and this was in the section for current information.

They must.
I had a couple of others that I thought should have filed yesterday. One filed for an extension until Nov 20 while this one and the other one has mentioned nothing about it. All three of this are "Current Information."
I said yesterday that I would still be holding my shares after the 10Q came out, and I am still holding my shares.
Where is the filing that was due yesterday to keep them at current information? Am I missing something here?
The thing I do not understand is why there was no filing yesterday. Is it because they just recently became current information so they are up-to-date until next quarter? A little confused by that. Seems like to stay current they have to file for the quarter ending September.
I am not surprised by the filing today, however, I am disappointed in them. Remember this is a subpenny stock that has a product that is not being overly used it. IMO we are in on the ground floor with this one. As long as the government continues pushing for EMRs I still believe there is much, much more out of MDFI than what we have now. It will not happen immediately, but one PR of government assistance can change those financials in a hurry.
I anticipate a down day tomorrow, but I would imagine after all is said and done I will still be holding the same amount of shares at the end of tomorrow that I am holding on to today.
I know the financials are not great, but that's not a new story here. Those pesky delayed revenues... when will they come into play??? We shall see what happens tomorrow.
Notification for late filing. I knew it!! Still holding strong!
http://www.pinksheets.com/otciq/ajax/showFinancialReportById.pdf?id=26050
Are your instincts telling you that?
Is there support here at .006? Do we stay here until the 10Q and/or PR comes out? .006 getting hit pretty hard, I'm waiting it out for the 10Q and hopefully the PR.
My guess is the 10Q comes after the close today.
MMs... TEAR DOWN THOSE WALLS!!
I am so ready for a PR I can hardly stand it!
The way the L2 is set right now, it wouldn't take long to jump.
Ask:
3 @ .006
2 @ .008
2 @ .009
3 @ .01
Let's go get them!!
Don't forget about the possibility of private investors either with the technology coming to the forefront here of late.
Going to be having some more money to put into this one after this week. If it goes to 4 I will double up my share value for sure. Although I might double up at 5 or 6 if news hits before then. Waiting patiently with this one for sure.
MDFI, we have liftoff! Have a nice flight!
Only 1 @ 1 on the ask. Are we going to get a bid back today without any PR or filing up to this point? It is a big lot on that 1 @ 1, but it is only 1 of them at 5 minutes after the opening bell.
