Is it not the same one as is on their main website?
3's up
Was my post overlooked? New e-mail from Eric, shouldn't it go in the Ibox?? (see message I'm replying to)
Letter from Eric about reporting:
Hello Mr. XXXXXXX,
Thank you for your kind thoughts – and for the opportunity of answering your question. The transition from Non-Reporting Issuer to Reporting Issuer has an intermediate step of Non-Reporting Issuer with Voluntary Disclosure. It is possible that this will be our progression. I have been careful not to provide specific dates for these possible transitions because it is in the company’s culture to do what it says it will do. Until there is certainty about that issue, we consider it more honest to leave this in the category of under review.
The relative merits of being a reporting issuer can be discussed at great length because the costs and constraints which follow from reporting status are not necessarily matched by improved access to capital.
My assessment is that Winning Brands must solidify the business foundation on which it is standing with more concrete and statistically projectable revenue sources that would satisfy the more conservative investment dealerships so that if such a transition from one state to another takes place the continuing access to capital is already planned and determined in advance according to the new status.
If in the interim we file voluntary disclosure documents then we also need to ensure that it is something that will be done without inadvertently forfeiting our Non-Reporting status.
Please do rest assured the subject is under active discussion in the company.
Thank you for your interest in Winning Brands Corporation and for being part of the shareholding family.
Sincerely,
Eric Lehner, CEO
Winning Brands Corporation

Subject: Investor Question
Dear Mr. Lehner,
I am an investor in your fine company from Belmont, MA. First and most importantly, congratulations on all of the recent developments as shown through your impressive PRs. I have already seen my portfolio grow significantly since starting a position in December, but to say it was unexpected wouldn't be accurate; I have a lot of faith in Winning Brands and the direction it is headed.
That being said, I do have one major concern. I have read your investor FAQ several times, and I do not quite understand one particular statement, in regards to reporting:
"It is very much in the interests of shareholders that the company benefits from the privileges of Non-Reporting Issuer status while this status is still available to it, rather than depriving the company of the competitive flexibility which this status provides."
I am sure you understand where I am coming from, but it just seems that Winning Brands must be quickly approaching a situation where the benefits of reporting outweigh the disadvantages of your shareholders not knowing the cash flow and financials of the company, especially when the company is having so much success in marketing and sales. It seems that this is where the majority of the criticism lies among those who are still sitting on the sideline. Perhaps it is just a matter of preference, but it seems as though some would rather see red (and presumably the progression to green) than no numbers at all.
Admittedly, I am young and naive, so please be patient with my inquisition and take it as a compliment that your investors are eager to know this information. I know that you cannot give me any definitive answer and trust that you're doing things in the investors' best interest, but any further insight into the process would be greatly appreciated.
Congratulations again and thank you for your time and for the opportunity to share in the successes of your fine company.
Sincerely,
Mr. XXXXXX
Of course that would be ideal. It will happen, probably sooner than we all know. Eric has stated several times that he plans to BUY BACK stock, not dilute unecessarily. Also wants to report and uplist to the AMEX eventually. You know this, crashman.
OT: what player/plugin do I need to watch your videos? They won't work on my macbook pro...
In fact, even their website hasn't been updated.... any thoughts???

Old news states that Jeffrey Trenk has been appointed to the position of CEO and Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors for Aladdin Beverage and that Ted O Conner has resigned (except as VP of sales) (Other OTC:ADTJ.PK - News). Why is Ted O conner still listed as President in the PR's and Ibox? TIA for any help.
L2? TIA
That was me... excited to be a part of this, everything looks good. I got in WNBD early, took some small profits into this, will add more later.
Someone has to get ahold of one of those fliers to post in the IBOX. Perhaps investors can get copies from the company?
Also, it would be nice to finally see the address and phone number of the decompression center.
Feel free to buy some yourself, but be sure to read the reviews first, wouldn't want to be scammed.......

Seventh Generation has experienced 40-50% growth year over year since they started. WNBD will be in a similar boat.
What a bizarre, boring day so far compared to those of the last few weeks... Let's get moving north.
buy order announcement? Is that the same thing as a buyback?
New York Times Article...
As long as they're spending more :)

Rocket, how can you calculate such a mass penetration into the fair value of the stock price? 25 P/E seems conservative, especially with the potential of a share buyback and uplisting. Do you think this could all occur ahead of 'schedule' considering the amount of exposure this FOX deal could bring?
Do you think they'll put "Ticker: WNBD" in the bottom right hand corner of the commercial? Congrats all, this is STILL just the beginning!
KIND is going to blow the roof off of their balance sheet IMO. This is going to be huge. Seventh Generation is STILL experiencing 40% growth year over year in their sustaining stage. WNBD will give them a run for (some of) their money sooner rather than later :)
Good morning... where are we going today?
Are you pumping now or just realizing just how much TRUE potential there is here with WNBD and Eric?
I thought the product was going to be "featured" upon the launch of the website?
So what is the share structure after the merger? I'm confused as to how it works. Help, anyone?
Also, what are people's oppinions on the different websites? Which should provide the most revenue?
What other areas (so far?) is the company involved in besides the spinal decompression centers? The Scottrade description says they have no focus on any particular industry or kind of business.... are there any others already in the works too? TIA
That's right, the ZZZ doctor haha. "Guy in Boston"? Where is the HQ? 202 number?
OT: ny Fan, I know you from over there. Welcome, ready to ride this one out together, too?
OT: Abdul, I worked at Harvard Medical School for two year before my current research job in a sleep lab, under Dr. Strecker. Name ring a bell?
Scottrade updated today too
Let's see the website before we hope for any cures :)
OT: I work in the research sector in Cambridge MA, though, and can confirm that great work is being done on diseases such as autism every day. There is much reason to have hope.
Hey Crude, you're alias is familiar from WNBD. Are you 24 y/o like me too? SYDI is very intriguing. How many shares did you pick up?
Hello all,
I started a position in SYDI today. I'm looking forward to riding this thing with all of you. Does anyone know when the website is supposed to be up and running? Two great PR's recently, should be fun. I am also running with WNBD, anyone else here?
L2? How thin are the rest of the 3's?

Recap of the merger and of the websites.. may want a link to this in the Ibox
Does anyone know what the share structure was like back when the prices were in the .50-.80 range?
Yes, Scottrade? I have the same...
OT: Where are you in MA? I live in Belmont, work in Cambridge
No problem. I've made a killing on WNBD, now let's hope for the same here.
So shares of PSVI will be converted to shares of eFUEL? Does that mean PSVI was fraudulent or illegitimate somehow?
I can't believe the mannipulation that goes on with the MM's. It's not just mannipulation, it's seems like it should be a crime.
Don't worry about a thing. Winning Colours is just the beginning. The big money's going to come from KIND, no doubt about it.
