That is funny... it has been painted up at the close for like the last month!
Loading shares usually doesn't drop the price...
No one knows the float here... TA has been gagged forever in that regard...
Interesting post I stumbled across in the archives...

This message is to JD. I sent this via e-mail, but just read your spam filter may have prevented you from seeing this.
Mr. Brown, in a prior communication, you indicated that a lot of your business was on a single use basis and that you were looking for ways to grow your repeat consumer base. What we came up with was the following:
In Europe and Asia, as opposed to the US, homes and apartments are not fitted out with installed kitchen cabinetry. The norm is to have removable and changeable cabinetry. If you were to contract with some home builders to offer this type of cabinetry to the new home owner, it would reduce the builders cost, offer the home buyer more options and create business for you. Possibly you could team up with some high end designers to get this type of product out in the media. Perhps a prototype home. You would also be able to offer this type of cabinetry to those home owners who are remodeling their kitchen.
Of course I don't know what kind of re-tooling you would need to do or add.
Hope this gives you some food for thought.

The Company has decided to cancel its efforts to issue a private company dividend. Expo Holdings, Inc. will instead focus its attention on operating a division under the parent company Expo Holdings, Inc.
James D. Brown, CEO, stated, "After careful consideration, the board of directors has agreed, to cancel any efforts to issue a private company dividend. Unforeseen difficulties in this process have prompted this final decision. Originally, the company intended to raise funds privately."

Now is the actual date of earning release material information?
Material information, about certain aspects of a company, that has not yet been made public but that will have at least a small impact on the company's share price once released.
those of us who asked .. knew this

As of today, the company has submitted the necessary paperwork, and paid the $4100 fee (including $500.00 in application fees) to Pink OTC Markets Inc. The company expects to soon begin releasing its financial reports in a timely manner. The company will be unable to meet the September 1st target date to become current with Pinksheets.com; however, it expects to proceed with the financial filing process as soon as the company receives specific information along with the RSA security device from Pink OTC Markets Inc.
I was told to expect them on the morning on the 16th(fins)FWIW
My understanding is that TDA's ban on buying EXPH came about because JD required them to trade in certs only.... i.e. a self inflicted wound.
This information is not something that I personally have evidence of... but it was presented here by someone close to JD... and it went unchallenged.
Does anyone now wish to refute that information?
Post stickied!
Let's see how accurate of a predictor last year's run is of this year's move...
Thus we can add in the revenues of ETC, when they come in
8 days elapsed so far...and counting...

Springroll, what you are saying about Kendrick is absolutely true as far as the link that he was a 10% holder! I saw the link as did many here. I do not understand why this fact that was clearly presented via the SEC filing link is now being challenged... aside from the fact that the link is no longer active.
There are even posts that remain here today that acknowledge the Kendrick 10% position. For example:

TDA is not allowing buys as of 30 seconds ago.
It is like standing in front of a freight train
At least point the webcam at it, like last year.
Maybe focus it this time? I do find it funny that the occasionally up webcam can focus on the sheets of plywood, buy can't seem to focus at all on day to day activities?
not filling...
Back to waiting mode, I suppose!
I still can't see why they don't release numbers today... they don't need Pinksheets current to PR the numbers...

Case-Shiller Home Prices in 20 U.S. Cities Rise More Than Forecast
Home prices in 20 U.S. cities rose more than forecast in June from a year earlier, reflecting the influence of a government tax incentive and a sign the market was stabilizing before sales plunged in July.
The S&P/Case-Shiller index of property values increased 4.2 percent from June 2009, the group said today in New York. The median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News called for a 3.5 percent advance.
The Case-Shiller index is a moving three-month average, which means the June data are still being influenced by transactions in April and May that benefitted from the government incentive. A pullback in demand since the credit ended, mounting foreclosures and an unemployment rate near a 26- year high may weigh on prices in coming months.
Nationally, prices increased 3.6 percent in the second quarter from the same time last year and were up 2.3 percent from the previous three months.
San Francisco, San Diego
Fifteen of the 20 cities in the S&P/Case-Shiller index showed a year-over-year increase, led by a 14 percent gain in San Francisco and an 11 percent increase in San Diego.
Compared with the prior month, 17 of the 20 areas covered showed an increase on an unadjusted basis, led by 2.5 percent gains in Chicago, Detroit and Minneapolis. Two cities were little changed and Las Vegas fell 0.6 percent.
Builders such as KB Home and Lennar Corp. reported falling sales after April 30, the deadline for homebuyers to sign contracts to purchase a home to qualify for the extended tax credit. The deadline to close transactions by June 30 was later extended to Sept. 30.
Donald Tomnitz, chief executive officer of D.R. Horton Inc., the second-largest U.S. homebuilder by revenue, said he welcomes the end of federal homebuyer tax credits that boosted sales earlier in the year.
Back to Normal
“I don’t want the tax credit to be re-enacted or be recreated or extended,” Tomnitz said on an Aug. 3 conference call with investors. “We want to get back to a normalized market.”
Foreclosures may be an obstacle for the market for much of the year. A record 269,962 U.S. homes were seized from delinquent owners in the second quarter as lenders set a pace to claim more than 1 million properties by the end of 2010, according to RealtyTrac Inc., an Irvine, California-based data company.
Last Hurrah for Housing
Case-Shiller is a backward looking index. The increasing number of foreclosures, the complete collapse in new home sales, a massive increase in inventory, and the end of tax credits all suggest we are near the end of the line for this bounce in home prices.
Interestingly, even the home builders are against another home tax credit. Is that reflective of the massive distortions caused by the credit, the realization the tax credit was useless, or the fact that homebuilders recognize there is little chance Congress will back another tax credit?
Regardless, here's the deal: New Home Sales Consensus 330K, Actual 276K, a Record Low. As a followup please see How Many New Home Sales Was That?
Expect to see new all time low prices in some cities later this year or next year as pent-up demand dries up along with incentives that merely brought that demand forward.

especially what they had to show HD to win the business
Where is it written that a company can't release earnings without being pinksheet current? They can! We seem to be accepting that as an excuse for delay, but it isn't, is it? Why not give us the numbers today as promised and file them *soon* with pinksheets?
.0015 - .0016
I made this statement about the momentum traders a little while back...
These are [day traders] and they will bail en masse when the momentum fades...
yep .. just an fyi one exph long with
2M on bid at 002 yesterday took close
to 4 hours to fill & done via 5 partials
just truly amazing what is being *played* out
but hey .. imo it matters not in mere days
The shareholder's meeting is right around the corner and I expect that missing a projected date for the company to be current by a few days will be well accepted considering we haven't seen any financials in over a year..
What make you think JD put out the update..It sure doesn't look like a JD update the way it was written and punctuated..As a few of us have already posted..The belief that the new CEO is calling the shots now would not be far off the mark.
again that would change by the end of march .. when 3 facts were KNOWN {} and co. planned to access capital via PP at a premium of 001 and restricted for one year .. (done mar - jul 2010)
I personally can't stand corporate-speak that sounds good but means nothing.
B/A .0018 - .002
Momo appears to be leaving... at least for now.
TDA's response:
Currently Expo Holdings (EXPH) stock is still restricted from trading for an indefinite amount of time. Closing Transactions Only are allowed.
Seems if they were going to delay the PRed Sept. 1st filings and transparency, this would have been the place to do it!
Buckle up!

I've done my DD. I can't do yours. If you have questions, you should probably do the required DD to satisfy them.
Since we know that they have only tapped 20% of of their $1M "financing", why is it that they had to sell 1B shares at rock bottom prices to raise money?
Well, I just did place an order, and got bounced. But maybe that is just online. Anyone else give it a try?
If we can confirm it tomorrow, it seems like sticky material. I didn't even realize that TDA had someone working the phones at this hour on a Sunday night!
I can only confirm that online trading still gives the same message that you can't buy.
I just tried to place an order with TDA...
Opening transactions for this security are not accepted.
That would be very good for the company!
I will inquire what changed TDA's opinion...
i answered to the relevance or importance of your question,
Evidently, based on your avoidance of a question asked of you 3 times coupled with your unrelated response, you believe actual facts about the company are of no relevance to a move in the stock... interesting... especially since you brought the $1M in financing up initially.
mine has more relevance
EXPH has so many contracts and orders both in-house and coming in, that they needed to dilute & raise more capital in order to acquire additional raw materials and employees to meet their customers' demands!
