We know that Kelly was in charge of Healfast sales for years in Canada and as far as I think anyone knows, she didn’t sell any. That’s about all you need to know about our CEO.
How about every three months? How many real PRs have we had since a year ago? I’m not talking Twitter (so unprofessional) or a Facebook page that she only lets people on if you praise her. Otherwise you get kicked off (Personal experience.) she herself promised us every two weeks - that lasted about a month. I don’t won’t fluff PRs either — just something like Hawk finds and puts on the board every week!
Don’t pretty much all of their products have a woman on them, especially the tapes?
Happy New Year Hawk and all!!
I’m not a basher. I’ve spent more than ten years supporting Biel - giving free patches to doctors, athletes, physical therapists, trainers, friends, etc. I have more than 30 patches in my closet that I bought a year ago when Biel had a half price sell to get rid of old packaging. I own double digit millions of shares at an average of .0006-.0007. My first patches were Healfast that I bought on Amazon (exactly the same patch). I had a friend buy three more in England before they were available in the US. That was when the NHS and Braun were going to send the SP into the stratosphere.
I just feel like Charlie Brown and the Whelans keep pulling the football away. Year after year we keep hoping this action (FDA approval, etc) will send us to a penny and here we are almost back in the trips — which could happen next week. SP is lower than a year ago. The last two weeks’ great game changer was a year end update by KW. Thud!
This will move the share price — the family and insiders are not going to take Biel’s profits for another year, and we’re doing a couple of studies. Maybe they’ll show some results.
And after all the deals and developments we finish the “year of the shareholder” LOWER than we were this date last year.
She’s had ten months to update — anything. Oh, let’s give her another weekend. Wouldn’t want to hold her to any commitment. Many of here could give her a long list of things if she can’t come up with anything — Healfast, Ally, new global markets, South Africa, new clinical trials, etc etc. We talk about these things all the time — after Hawk and others uncover info. on their own.
And as I said yesterday, to release a PR. Update, whatever on Friday evening New Years Eve? Worse timing ever — this is when Presidents announce controversial decisions — to keep them OFF the news and they be forgotten by Monday. So yeah, I’d rather have her hold it now till Monday when somebody besides us here might read it.
And to the person who suggests we chill — many of us have been hearing that for ten ow twelve years now!
Happy New Year all.
Go ahead and release your PR Hawk. How hard can this be?! KW had to have known all she could say a week (weeks, months?) ago. Now she is (maybe) going to put out a PR on Friday, New Years Eve — which will make it the worst timed PR in the history of PRs. I’m not sure she ever had any intention of putting out a real PR — she was probably thinking about a Tweet on Twitter (real professional). Now I hope she waits until Monday - no one (say, major Wall Street investors) will read it until then anyhow, and that will leave the rest of the week for Keith to follow it up will a real, detailed press release and not leave those few of us who might glance at KW’s scribbles tomorrow to wonder over the weekend what it means.
Who knows how they’re distributing the Waves. There are 20 to 25 CVSs within my zip code area that have never stocked them. Haven’t seen any in Walgreens or Walmart. There is one CVS 20 miles from me that has them in stock. I received a 40% off coupon on any item from CVS so I’ll be buying another Wave.
All this change except for a higher share price — that remains right where it’s been for ten plus years! What’s wrong with that Picture? Explanation Scrin?
Seem to be filling the gap up. Finished at .0014 yesterday, opened at .0016/.0017. Now back down to .0014 to fill that gap. This afternoon should be interesting.
I just wish they would stock all the CVS stores— like in my rural (but university) town CVS and, oh I don’t know, Chicago!
Besides all the other questions about this release, I can’t understand why they (whoever “they” are) made no mention of the important stuff — record sales, partnerships, permissions to market Biel around the world, etc. Just another example of why serious investors are staying away (besides being a penny stock, which many won’t touch!) from Biel, and why we’re back in the teens.
Not at my CVS or Walgreens, or the majority of ones in Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City, among other major cities. It amazes me that some places are stocking six or more while a lot of centrally located stores in major cities don’t have any, and never have had any.
Exactly! It seems we had the quarter that the most optimistic expected. But because our CEO screwed up the release of the fins. and left the investing world to try and figure them for themselves, we took a nosedive, and now we’re right back where we were a month ago or so in the .002s— and probably will be for yet another three months.
Our CEO is a CPA
I agree. What if we had a competent CEO as well — someone new investors could believe in, not a toxic Whelan.
I agree.
And by the way, only about a third or less of the CVS stores within 100 miles of me have Waves in stock — and the same is true for stores in Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis. Kansa City, are still not stocked.
Yes, here we go. Just wait till the financials come out…till we get FDA approval…till CVS stocks all their stores…till the shipments arrive…till the next financials? For me, for 11 years now, always big expectations and then nothing. So we wait ANOTHER thee months, probably only hearing from Hawk, etc cause our CEO doesn’t want to put out “fluff”!! I believe in this product. — I bought 30 during Biel’s last half price sale — but I have no confidence in Kelly. How about a real press release instead of a throw-off comment on FB — which by the way is censored and any criticism of her gets you kicked off (as I am). When are we shareholders going to have had enough of this BS?!
It would help even more if Kelly would resign and Biel hire a real business person to run the company. Obviously, she’s incompetent and needs now to ride off into the sunset on her bike on someone else’s nickel. But, just like her father, she’s blindingly stubborn and we the shareholders just keep letting the Whelans get away with it. What can we do to force her out?! I fear trips again tomorrow.
Great close! Expectations running high!!
No one dares to, as she will just scream at them for demanding more “fluff.” (Even though she is the one that promised updates every two weeks after her father died.)
And so it goes.
Yeah, well, I’m sure many of us were working when we first bought Biel stock, but since that long ago, many have retired.
I’ve always thought Biel made a mistake by not contracting with KT to market it as Actipatch. I know, they have been great in promoting it. But, can you imagine Intel saying, ok Apple you can say “speed inside!”
And DonJoy is marketing it as Actipatch! — not “the Wave”
That’s not true Srin. They are still a company, they are still carrying on clinical trials for different uses for Actipatch, still making deals both in the US and abroad, still working on ways to alter the patch — larger, smaller, more or less power. Despite their saying the Actipatch name will no longer be used in the US, we just saw it used by DonJoy in the ad Hawk sent out today. As I’ve said many times, one has to compare Biel now to Intel. Yes, it’s up to the computer companies (their OEMs) to advertise “Intel Inside,” but that doesn’t mean Intel is not still a mega-company, and they advertise all the time. Why can’t Biel tell us about on-going clinical trials? New partners - Schols?
I’ve owned Biel for more than 10 years. I own a lot of shares - some at .0001. have to be chilled or I’d go crazy! But I’ve always compared the new OEM deals to Intel. They have the same deals with who knows how many companies. Does that mean they don’t advertise? Of course not, we can all hum the little Intel jingle. It helps them but also their partners. People are convinced they “want Intel inside!”
I can’t find it, but sometime after her father died, Kelly sent out a message that the new leadership was going to be much more transparent and communicative. Thus, she said, shareholders would be receiving updates every two weeks — “I promise, really!” We’ll, that lasted about two months, then silence, just like her dad.
Then, I believe it was in January that some on the board started asking her to get the CEO to put out another major update. If I remember right, she was going to talk to him about it that day or the next. And, we all waited. Nothing!
It’s not the shareholders who are the problem here about news. Kelly made promises and didn’t keep them. Just like her dad.
Yes, I’ve been checking for weeks, but these are some of the largest cities in America and there are just a handful of stores that carry them. I’ll just keep checking. My little CVS will be the last one in America to get them. LOL
This is great! Well done as always Hawk. Now, if we could just them in some CVSs in Chicago, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City... be nice to have them here too.
Yes, I know that. Just adding another question to your comment about this “no secret” idea that Kelly is ready to sell this year. You were talking about the price, and I commented on whether this was even accurate or not — that she is ready to sell.
And who is saying she wants to sell this year? Only public statement I’ve seen was last year when she gave a time line of four or five years.
We could get out of the pinks nearly overnight if Kelly would do the right thing and retire a few billions of her shares But she’s too greedy for that so here we are, no matter how good the news, still in the pinks, still at .0030. And the major news releases just keep coming, and going, and the price doesn’t change. It’s always the next big event! There was no bigger event than full FDA clearance, after which a stock usually soars. Every company’s dream. We went back to .0007. I’m not selling my millions of shares, but I do wish Kelly would retire a few billions of hers.
I’m still waiting for all the CVSs to stock them. Check St. Louis, Chicago, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Evansville, Terre Haute, Springfield (Illinois), and all the smaller towns around these — none of these have more than two or three stores sticking them, at most. I’ve been checking all these places for weeks.
You see a woman, I see an Olympic athlete !
I also question looping it over itself. I think one is not supposed to place one Actipatch overlapping another one, so seems like looping it would have same effect. Any thoughts you scientists out there?
I was wondering how many would get the reference! Betraying our ages!! LOL
See Spot. See Spot chase! Chase, Spot, Chase!!
