Google Impact Beverage, Inc Nickolas and you will get pages of stuff. Just check out the percentage of Impact he tried to sell DFRC (Diversity Financial Resources Corp) 72.25%. He couldn't complete that deal for the inabilty to meet DD requirements. I wonder why! Nonetheless, Their track records should prove to you your investment is a huge gamble ... go to a Casino. Good bet Miami Dolphins are going to win the Superbowl next year. Put a grand on that for me to.
Dude you are right ... the money in toatal is chump change in todays world. BUT THEY HAVE NONE ... Zouvas is doing the legal for a stock swap. This guy has his hands full with these cronies.
You are right, but we will see what Zouvas is made of. Ron's and Steve's past are well documented. I am still probably going to come up empty myself. If so at least Nickolas will be taken out and justice will be served or the stock may pay off. Time will tell so hang out.
That is just the lein portion you forgot about us at Impact Beverage, Inc. Long story short, they don't have any money. that does equate to a significant chunk of stock if they choose to move forward without any encumberances.
Brasco, I am pursuing my rights you need to do the same. Kevin who is the MOD has a vine to these guys ... challenge them. Any mistruth by them is your basis to pursue your personal interest through class action recovery of your investment, SEC and or file a fraudulent complaint with the Phoenix FBI office (602-279-5511) have your facts ready. The Nickolas file was opened in 2006.
People -- I am simpy providing the information that I have and sharing with you so you can form your own opinion on how the moon and the stars are aligning. Fact, I have talked with Luke Zouvas and he did say, "the patent is encumbered with a lein to the tune of $350,000". Fact, I am a owner in Impact Beverage, Inc. that wholly owns Enhanced Beverage, LLC (not Impact Beverage Company out of San Fran)which is the company that has the patent rights along with coinventor Nickolas and Stewart. Fact Nickolas only owns 72.25% of the company. Fact, Stewart and partners own 27.75%. Fact, Zouvas stated, if the information regarding Impact Beverage is correct we do have rights to Nutripure Beverage. Fact, Stewart has put Nutripure Beverage on notice. Fact, XND Technologies did not wholly own the patent rights that was merged to form Nutripure Beverage. Fact, Nickolas et al are not builders of successful businesses that provide a reurn on investment. Fact, there assets are $107,000 according to the balance sheet. Read the financials. Fact these products can be made with new emerging technology that bypasses the process patent. Fact, liquid delivery systems are available today for nutriceuticals and botanicals without degradation and are shelf stable. Fact, I have over 30 years of food and beverage experience and am aware of Nickolas' dubious past. How much more do you want on a silver platter? As I said you will find this be true in due time. Kevin as moderator, call Nickolas and Zouvas yourself.
I have provided a lot of informational approaches in the past to provoke insightful thought, analysis, response and discussion without much reply. I have read the babble of speculation with LOL. I have discussed this with Zouvas; however, like many of you he has disappeared as well after noy following up with a schedule conference call last Thursday. I have provided a lot of info for all of you to chew on. Your decision to play or not play is your choice. I am simply providing information as I know it having a rightful ownership to profits made from practicing this technology. You will learn that I speak the truth in time. Believe me Luke has his hands full with a deal that was executed on false pretenses by Nickolas. Nickolas should be behind bars. He owes me and a lot of my partners and food industry associates a lot of dough. By me providing the info. justice will be served one way or the other. I will prosper along with you folks if this works out and or Nickolas will finally be brought to justice and stop stealing money from people like ourselves. Enough is enough with this guy. If you have a complaint there is always the SEC and the Phoenix FBI file on Nickolas. Feel free. You will make my day one way or the other. I have been tracking this SOB for 5 years waiting for him to slip and that he did by taking this public. I feel for everyone out there because I truly don't want this guy to prosper or lead anyone else to false hopes for great financial returns. As I stated, you can read the publicly available track record on any of these guys. They are parisites living the high life of the likes of you and me. That are not builders of successful enterprise, but dubious in their means to pay themselves HIGH SALARIES and generat nothing but red ink. I espouse my info to simply forewarn that this is going to get ugly and not be resolved anytime soon. You decide!!!
They own 72.25% my friend. There is a lien that needs to be paid and other investors rights to be negotiated and settled.
There was alien against the patent when Steve sold this to a publically traded company; therefore that must be taken care of. Steve has changed names in order to deceive and cover his trail for quite sometime, but we continue to track him down. His big mistake was going public.
Your Welcome. When I here more from Luke I'll let you kwnow.
I do not need links. I am personally involved. I rightfully own 5%. Just ask Steve who his business partners and SVP at Impact Beverage, Inc. the company that owns Enhanced Beverage, LLC. Ask Steve to give you the info on his failure with the Japanese (Quench Water) and Sunset Health or Bob Simpson of Xann Corp. who he owes a fortune. He tried to sell 72.25% of Impact Beverage to Diversified Financial Resources but failed because he could not provide auditable financials for DD. The key is 72.25% ... why because that was his share. Stewart the co inventor and my other partners own the rest. If you don't wish to believe, so be it. Fore warned is fore armed. That's it ... I'm Out.
Guys Not bashing just the striaght skinny as to why Steve is out and there is little communication. HUGE MESS... he misrepresented XND Technologies and the intellectual property. He does not have full rights to the technology and the patent that was transferred in the deal was discovered to be encumbered with a lien and has ownerships rights with at least three other individuals. To practice this technology they owe about $850,000 to get out from under. Bad news is they don't have the cash. The real bad news to shareholders is ... they can only issue stock if the parties are amenable. They attorneys aren't even being paid in green backs. They owe the trade (accounts payable) major six figures. They can'y get credit from supply chain for ingredients nor do they have the cash to purchase. Even if all the shares were purchased ... they can't get out of the red.
It's not a scam but it certainly isn't worth much. Companies aren't one man bands and until they start building a company ... this is nothing but a dream. The past indicates the probability is very low. Just look at the past performance of all the players. Losers... all they know how to do is take the money run and generate debt.
Steve Nickolas is the source.
I have tasted nutrient enhanced water without sweeteners and flavoring agents that were virtually flavorless. I am in the food ingredient business and have sampled these prototypes, but not Nu2O. If you have read my prior posts regarding the patent ... Nu2O unsweetened unflavored nutrient enhanced water is a patented process not a patented product. In other words Nu2O does not have the market cornered. There is technology out there today that you can add nutrients to water with liquid concentrates which bypasses the process and are microbiologically stable for the life of the product. In other words ... you can make these products without the so called unique process. That is exactly why Steve et al will never be able to sell this to the big boys. He has already presented this to Coke, Pepsi and P&G 5 years ago with no success. Do your DD and you will see where his tornadoes have touched down.
How do you know he is still employed. The PR said he was removed ... usually that means not demoted. I understand Steve got caught up in a bunch of mistruths and has been uncooperative with Luke. I know Nickolas and the guy is dubious to say the least. He dubed Bob Simpson of Zanncorp out of major six figure money. He blew a deal with Sunset Health and screwed the Japanese out of $150,000. Nickolas is personna non grata at many of a supplier. I personally know the people he did business with in the past and these people are key to producing the product. I have tasted the products and they are tremendous, but I am sorry to say that Nutripure will not be able to procure the key ingredients to practice the patented technolgy as long as Nickolas is involved or associated with the company. He stil owes these people a bunch of dough. Nickolas' trail looks like an F5 tornado.
You may be right. If so then what has really changed. Luke needs to take control. If Steve is permitted in the office, then Luke has no Control. If this is a transition period then issue a PR. Highly unusual and unprofessional. Steve should be nothing but a shareholder.
I am saying their is no gate keeper. Luke is in San Diego and Steve and Ted in AZ. Luke needs to go and take control and change the locks. Luke is just getting his feet wet and there is a lot of discovery. He still has a law firm to run. I am sure he wasn't planning on all this BS. There is only so much time in a day and only so much one man can do. Remember this is not a functioning company with an infra structure to support a transition. Best this is happening now rather than in the middle of product roll out. That would be disaster. You don't get second changes at Walmart once you piss them off.
That is their office prior to Nutripure and they have the keys. Until Luke flies to AZ and takes control they will continue to go to the office. Highly unusual and unprofessional. This is a company without a home. Zouvzas' office is certainly not the place to build this company. This is not a functional company as their is no protocol or infrastructure to keep former employees from conducting business.
Zouvas is in San Diego and Ted and Steve are in Scottsdale at the original XND Technologies company. Your concern is valid. Steve who should no longer be with the company still has access to the company. This is highly unusual and unprofessional.
There was a show in Cali called Supply Side West Expo last week.
Here Here!!! All talk and no walk. Is anyone interested in the product labels and how the product is differentiated in the market place. There is plenty to talk about positive PR.
I have read the patent and gone over the info with a fine tooth comb. The patent is a process patent not a product patent. The products are not patented; therefore, the ability to make virtual flavorless enhance water is through ingredient technology not the cold fill process manufacturing technique. The key is keeping the product microbiologically stable and masking the flavors of the nutritional components. The cold fill process patent does not embody the proprietary ingredients of Sabinsa and the like.
This is just another sweetened and flavored vitamin water but it is certified organic. Evaporated cane juice is the sweetener that is simply partially refined sugar. They are going to have micro problems with no preservation system.
You are absolutely correct. Their assets total $107,000. Ask yoursef how they run a company and distribute product with no infrastructure in contract manufacturing, sales marketing, customer service, quality control, accounting and most importantly logistics.
What we need to see in terms of PR is the development of a company infrastructure to support the product rollout and future sales. We don't need R&D, we need contract manufacturing, quality control, logistics, distribution capability, sales, marketing, customer service and accounting. You can't play ball with Walmart without the aforementined. We need to see the directors build a company otherwise this is just words pontificating another great idea or just a dream. WALK THE TALK!!!
I was responding to another post of 27mm shares. To calculate the market cap it doesn't matter what you bought at it is the value on any given day for the shares eg. .0002 x the shares outstanding. The 27mm million shares outstanding was a bogus number.
Guys they haven't provided a finacial since 2006 let alone 1st quarter 2008. They are not going to provide inside information. That's illegal. Does Bill Gates call his stockholders to share what is going on. Get real.
It,s agood thing you guys don't have a lot of money in play. Real simple ... total shares outstanding (stock that is owned by the common shareholder) x the price per share = the market capitalization of the company. Guys the share holders outside of insiders have only invested about $60,000. You can't even buy enough ingredients to make a truck load of product. If you look at the balance sheet this company is upside down ... in other words in the red. Their assets are only $107,000. The capital surplus which is the insider stock position is $30mm with a care over lose of $31mm. They owe suppliers in excess of $250,000. THEY HAVE NO MONEY unless there is a new insider that is going to bank roll this deal.
The patent was issued to Enhanced Beverage, LLC inventors Nickolas and Stewart; thereby, the patent is owned by EB, LLC. Who owns/owned EB, LLC? Was Stewart rightfully separated from his co-inventor rights? Answers to those questions could be the key to Pandora's Box and Steve's ouster and/or possible dilution. Just an intellectual scenario to ponder. Things don't go south this fast without unanticipated issues arising. Nickolas does have somewhat of a dubious history.
You are correct. My point is ... did Nickolas have 100% ownership rights? If not, he misrepresented XND and himself to Liberty Diversified: thereby his sudden dimissal. Perhaps Stewart and others have stepped forward from days past. He dubed his last SVP of some big bucks (major six figures) perhaps he may have encumbered the patent in some way. Zouvas et al will figure this all out, but it may take some time. We all need to be patient.
Here Here!!!
He is a major shareholder in the company even though he may not have controlling interset.
Kevin --- well stated, but Nickolas may not have full ownership of the patent that issued in 2005. Who is this guy Stewart? Was he renumerated for his part or relinguish his rights? It is Enhanced Beverage, LLC co-inventor Nickolas and Stewart. To your point, if there were investors in this previous venture, do they potentially have rights? Did they sign of or bought out? This does not appear to be 100% of Steve's. Steve was summarily dismissed after what appeared to be riding a big wave. Something isn't kosher. The fact is the entity of Nutripure Beverage, Inc. has the rights today and yes Nickolas will prosper nicely eventhough he is no longer the CEO. This happens everyday in big business. Optimistically speaking, whatever is taking place behind closed doors is in the best interest of the directors, officers and shareholders of the company. If Nickolas is in or out so be it.
You folks seem to forget. The major stockholders in this game are the officers of Liberty Diversified and XND Technologies. They have the most skin in the game. We are chump change in this Market cap. This was a stock swap ... nobody went away. Nickolas rose to the top with his technolgy ... until he obviously got caught up in some shannigans. Why do you think the attorney is in charge. The legalee was not part of the original company. You cannot move to a higher board without the proper due diligence for the '07 financials etc. Nickolas could not provide that in the past when he tried to sell to DFRC in 2004. Give these guys sometime to clean up the obvious Nickolas mess. You seem to forget ... Nickolas has lied on to previous PRs that we are aware of.
Steve has no money or controlling interest. Look at the financials and balance sheet. He has been robbing Peter to pay Paul for years ... that is why this great idea for six years has not gotten off the ground. New management is the way to go and stop wasting your breath on Nickolas et al. Ask Steve why he never licensed this technology to any of the big boys. According to his resume he should have all the connections.
there are patent rights issues. I heard through the grapevine that the co-inventor has contacted Nutripure and that other company owners are stepping forward to stake there claim. Nikolas apparently never renumerated or sought a release from the coinventor or Enhanced Beverage, LLC ownership. Nikolas only owned 72% of the company. Enhanced Beverage, LLC is owned by Impact Beverages, Inc. which is primarily owned by Nikolas and Stewart the owners of the patent and other intellectual property. Ther is an investor group that owns at least 15% outside of Nikolas and Stewart.
That's exactly it. Does Steve have the rights or will we find out through the SEC DD that there were bats in the belfry. Isn't it curious, that after the PR of a higher board...The hire of new CFO that Nikolas is removed and is replaced by an SEC attorney that brokered the deal. There is a lot more than meets the eye. This deal can't be kosher. If you track Nikolas' past he has never launched a successful enterprise or sold a company because the lack of proper DD that supports acceptable / auditable accounting practices.
The patent my friends is issued to Enhanced Beverage, LLC with CEO Steve Nikolas and SVP Andrew Stewart as co-inventors. Enhanced Beverage has a group of investors. I would think we need to do our DD to ensure that Nutripure has the outright ownership to practice the patent. If this is a novel and patented process, why no psoitive PR with licensed bottling partners to launch the products? What's the secret? Just maybe they don't exist.
