MESSAGE FROM MIKE STEELE!
I'm sorry that I have not replied to you. Jay did forward your email to me, but I have been very busy the past 4 months.
First off I want to get a few things straight so the information on the message board is correct.
1. I never sold Jazz Candles to PBHG. I never got all my money from them in September like I requested. So I kept Jazz Candles. I don't play around, I gave them a time line of when I needed my money for the company or they were not going to get it. Once my customers found out that I was not selling the company orders started pouring in. I have had very little time to do the conference calls especially since the peak part of the candle season hit us in November-December. We have now started shipping our candles in Australia and Canada to new distributors. So that has taken a lot of time as well. Along with all that I went to the Dallas Market in January where we sold $20,000 worth of candle is 4 days at the show. Then the had to fill all the orders and get them shipped out to all the retail stores. So as you can see I've been very busy, and that is not even considering all the work I'm doing with my pool business. I really wanted to be doing conference calls every few weeks, but I never had the time to call Jay during the day and go through all the things I can talk about and not say on a conference. I'm sorry but my business comes first and foremost before the conference call. I was doing that as a courtesy to help keep everyone informed. It seems everyone takes the things I say out of context anyway.
2. I have not sold any of my shares with this company. I'm still the largest share holder of the company. I hold over 500 million shares. I have not converted any shares from my convertible note, nor do I plan on doing that anytime this year. My first one comes up on 1 year later this month. Next one is in June.
This is a long term play for me. There are many things that this company is doing, all for the good. As you can see they did close out the deal with Tarragon and MetroPlex pools, just like they said they would do. This is going to be a great year for the company. Once revenue is reported then the share price will take care of itself. I do not worry about the day to day price of the stock. They have told me and have stated we will do approx. $15 million this year. I think it will be even higher, but that is just my opinion. Everything they have said they would do they have done. I told everyone that they were working on having the books audited. I also said that every time we took over another acquisition it would add time to the audit, because those companies books would have to be gone over and audited as well. I said that in a conference call. Well since that conference call we have added 2 new companies Tarragon and MetroPlex. That is what has taken so long with the audit. They are working on having it done. I expect it to me done in March or April 2015
3. I made a phone call to them on Christmas Eve asking about the billion shares that was sold. Jay said he was expecting a phone call from me and had most of the board of directors in the room when I called to let me know it was not the company selling these shares. I believe him, it was not AVEW selling shares, my opinion. Would be stupid for them to lie to me. From the people I have contacted I believe it was old board members from Actionview Int. that had converted their shares and dumped them for end of year tax selling. That is my opinion, but that is what I believe happened. AVEW had to have shares available for them when they wanted to convert their shares since they were all well over 2 years old. Also, What benefit would it be for the company to dump a billion shares at one time and take out all the support that was under it? None! Also I have not see a Form 4 filled for any insider SELLING any shares. Have you? If they own shares personally they have to fill a Form 4 if they are selling shares, just like they did when they bought shares.
4. The pictures of the retail store where the spas was going to be sold is in the same parking lot as AVEW office. They were about to sign a lease on the building and sent me the pictures so I posted them on twitter. A week later they struck up the deal with Countryside Nursery and Landscaping. It would not of made since to lease that building when they can put everything in Countryside. So it was not a lie about that building. It just would of been stupid to waste money on that building when they did not need to.
Hope this help in answering your questions. I don't read the board very often but what they were posting today was simply all wrong.
Thanks,
Mike
