yeah that thing is out of control lol i left that group yesterday..
well just flip percentages of your investment.. like 25% here and there.. i dunno just a sugg...
hahahahahaha i have no clue... i dont even care to speculate on this one hahahahahahahahaha kinda just waiting to see if the drama ensues on the board lol i hope some people dump bc of this i'm looking to pick up some tomorrow
I stopped by to check and see if anyone is bent out of shape over the "musclepharm restaurant" yet.....?!!
I think Eurpac sales should have a pretty good presence on this quarters report.. I think it will really pick up on the Q3 due to awareness by that time..
I agree with you in that many people who are not excited have voiced very important concerns, and anyone to just overlook these concerns are quite possibly only hurting themselves... I have been guilty from time to time of not wanting to see the negative.. There are some negative facts here.. but the good thing is that these negative facts are reflections of periods past, that are already in the book.. and as long as we keep crawling in the upward positive direction in these fronts I will remain POSITIVE...
I believe it is perfectly acceptable for them to take a vacation and enjoy some time to themselves.. From my understanding Jeremy DeLuca has just finished getting the Boise Distribution warehouse up and running, set up in bb.com fashion, due to his experience in running an efficient distribution center with bb.com.. and Cory Gregory is practically a machine with social media answering questions, and giving advice all while coming up with new products.. These guys have been busting their asses.. I see every day where Cory is up at 0300 tweeting #upearlytotrain and posting workouts and he continues to post all day till late at night..
Brad Pyatt and Lawrence Meer are the ones who sign the filings, and if anyone remembers reading the PR about Corporate Initiatives, they will note that an Audit Committee was established. We have already seen the work of this through the changes in the filings... They are the ones handling the financials, so I could care less if Cory and Jeremy went on vacation..
I even commented on their twitter post and told them to enjoy themselves and that they have built a great company.. <<<i'll probably catch flack for that but I don't care.. Its how I feel..
In conclusion i think that everyones concerns are legitimate and they deserve to have a voice here.. but when I start reading all of the little petty negative info on here daily due to lack of info by the company i just remember this one thing...
compare a snapshot of the company on 01Jan2012, to today and then I smile!
just my thoughts in general
I understand your comparison to a recent IPO company in regards to the warrants... i understand your logic completely.. let me educate myself on warrants in general and look at the financials before i attempt to comment on the warrants...
Thats a clown question bro...
ya know how the MP shirts have that green MP logo on the back on top right at the neck level..??? How cool would it be if his jerseys had that kind of logo placement?!?! that would be sweet..
the trading volume is share volume specific, if it was otherwise it would be stated differently.. under the volume rule it states specifically
an issuer may simply not purchase shares exceeding 25 percent of the stock's four-week ADTV.
An issuer can repurchase its common shares only at a price that is no higher than the current independent bid or the last independent transaction price, whichever is higher
they can purchase back i believe 25% of the avg daily trading volume ADTV of the most current 4week period
here ya go

the only thing i've been riding in lately is helicopters back and forth to WORK! with 4pt harnesses, inflatable pfd's, and an emergency briefing on life raft operations before each flight!!!! does not sound like a private chartered jet to me!
I wish i could take a nice vacation on a private chartered jet based off of the riches I have received from being a part of MP... to bad private chartered jets aren't fueled with potential, hopes and dreams..
I promise you if I see a private jet being paid for on the next financial then i'm getting a ride..... FOR FREE! thats all there is too it.. or some heads are gonna roll! lol
I agree completely. The very tool that MP has used to as a cornerstone of their advertising campaign, social media, has also caused and increasing percentage of inactivity among adolescents.
I am was raised much like you, breakfasted consisted of scratch biscuits in the oven first, bacon started, then eggs in bacon grease, then diced up potatoes in that with onions and peppers.. whatever was left over was mixed in with scratch ingredients to make a gravy.. "covered and smothered" was a household term..
but also like you i was an active child.. my mother would kick me out of the house until lunch.. if i wanted water it came out of the garden hose... you learn quick to let it run a few minutes to get the sun baked water out of the line! lol
anyway i agree i would much rather see a child go after sports supps over other drugs that available to them.. just my opinion not looking to tell anyone they are wrong or right
Its funny you mention this.. the new "monster mixer" has a bb.com and MP logo on it as well.. I believe this is very important to point out.. as bb.com WAS always marketed with ON on everything.... looks like the supplement world domination is changing hands
With all of the decisions that kids make.. i personally am not worried about the ones looking for good supplements.. If you are looking for a sport supplement at a young age, then to me that means you are taking an interest in your health.. However, uneducated they may be on the issue.. The kid taking sports supplements is trying to do something POSITIVE.. and if he/she is taking supplements then the chances of being involved in a sport is highly likely at that age with the structured sports programs in schools..
I would much rather have a youth using sports supplements to gain an edge over schedule 2 narcotics.. mainly ADD/ADHD meds.... easy enough to get a hold of, and the effects of this are amazing.. the new MLB bargaining agreement involving their drug policy changes and beginning of HGH testing even have a specific portion of their new rules pertaining just to ADD/ADHD meds..
In conclusion I would much rather have kids on sport supps than crack... at least they are trying to be positive!!
oh yeah, no doubt at all...
i fully believe there are large groups here holding numerous shares.. the price moves easily on low volume both ways. seems people are locked in
I don't believe there will be a merger either.. that was something our sarcastic friend was saying. I was simply providing research on some coincidentals from anothers claims of a partnership is some form and he blew it all out of proportion in an attempt to devalue my DD.. its all good though
I think it would be mutually beneficial for the two companies, maybe if MP made a powered by MP supplement line for UA , and UA made a powered by UA line of apparel for MP... who knows that could be the sportswear arrangement.... I guess we'll find out eventually
I agree 100%
I agree that HS is not going to be the moneymaker here, however, here is a good vibe story for ya...
One of my coworkers who I talk to about the stock(who now owns a little over 2million shares) started seeing my results using the products.. which was a big green flag for him to invest as well.....any way with his investment and my progress with the supplements I was able to get him to try Assault.. He absolutely loved it.. then next was the Combat.. loved it as well.. His son plays HS football.. and since taking MP products, mainly Assault and Combat.. he has made huge gains...IN HIGHSCHOOL.. now every kid on that team wants MP and most are getting it... and the other teams are seeing this huge leap in performance and the use of MP is slowly rippling outward (like the ripple a rock leaves behind when it gets dropped into a flat calm pond) and a lot of kids in his HS league are not at least using the Combat or Assault.. if not both...
just some thoughts..
maybe some of us have friends who's kids are in HS competitive sports... maybe just buy one tub of Assault and Combat for them.. then let the quality of the products do the rest... just by letting people sample my supplements offshore i went from seeing a variety of supps and walmart supps out here to dominantly seeing MP... Its awesome.. everyone is always emailing me asking for bb.com coupon codes and what not lol
as soon as they post an international sales figure that is equal to, or greater than the total sales for the quarter that will be it! WORLD DOMINATION!
I am not saying there will be a merger.. just pointing out all of the coincidences and possibilities in certain areas based on the claims of someone else.. Do I believe there is potential for MP and UA to do some business together? YES.. definitely.. if they haven't already.. They are both marketed towards all of the same people!..
another point.. to reach $75M for the year.. it means we need to plane out around $19M-$20M a quarter.. pffftttttt plane out? yeah right.. $16.6M + $19.47M + $19.47M + $19.47M= $75.01M
hahahaha yeah $100M by the end of 3rd quarter!!! GO MSLP!!!!
I think in the near future we will see a quarterly report that reflects a higher international sales number than in country(USA) sales numbers..
That will surely be milestone in MP history..
yeah the flavors are awesome.. We are almost half way through the year.. with what most predict as one of the most important quarters in MSLP.. Which means we are truly getting in on the ground floor here..
new mass is set to debut around Olympia time.. end of sept..
I brought extra Combat offshore.. and i let everyone have a little sample of each flavor i have and everyone thinks they are the best tasting proteins ever.. i even had someone offer $60 for one of my unopened tubs..
Exactly.. Compared to Q1-12, how do you think our International sales are doing for the Q2? I think they should at least double!!!
have yall seen this PR?
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/musclepharm-reports-2012-first-quarter-financial-results-153739085.html
We have a lot of expansion to fund, but also believe we can generate $4 million of EBITDA in the final two quarters of 2012."
hell yeah thats awesome should be a good opportunity to get some MP logos in the mix...
14 more trading days till the end of the quarter!!!!! come on $40M in sales!!!!!!!!!
If the alleged "9000 store deal being inked soon' statement is true then watch out 3rd quarter!!!!!
MSLP POSITIVE!!!!!!
I agree the Orange Creamsicle is awesome!!! I got some chocolate peanut butter from bb.com just recently as well..
Oh yeah you have definitely been preaching that... With as much as we have been hearing iHub members talking about their experiences at GNC, with the people behind the counter it would seem MP is in high demand at their stores.. It would be mutually beneficial for GNC and MP to get it in the stores as quickly as possible. Lets hope they don't wait for the 'reset"!
notice how easily the price moves on low volume with a little buying pressure
That is correct we sell at GNC but not in every store as it is not a GNC requirement. Some GNC stores are franchises. If GNC requires MP in every store it will be a good day for us.
what type of information can you share in regards to 'i hear any day now they close the deal"?
I was actually pulling up their website as i was loading this one. I am going to send them an email. Also, I did see your post. i believe that could very well be a possibility, or they could use them for employee shirts.
I will check into this.
yeah I haven't found any literature connecting the 2.. but it is a nice coincidence to see that UA is trying to get more liquidity in the stock..
I understand it is a complete psychological thing to do a 2for1 it changes nothing fianancial for anyone.
I posted previously I believe it will be Target and ALL GNC"s as the total number of storefronts for these 2 retailers is @9100 stores combined..
Target is the nations second largest retailer. The number 1 is Wal-mart and we already have that in the works.
Currently the GNC's that MP is sold in is by individual store request and some have posted that the GNC's are upping their MP inventory..
this is my opinion as the evidence fits...
oh nice.. thanks for letting me know.. I'm not sure how that works IF a company might be doing something with another company, or how it would fit into the game plan.. never had to look anything up along those lines...
Do you have any knowledge of why a company would split to acquire or help a reverse merger with another company? I would love to hear it..
thanks in advance..
Thats right. No one has said it is going to happen, besides codie now. He says that I spell it out nicely. I am fully aware that he/she is just orchestrating some way to attack my posts.
If I knew for fact it would happen then I would say "i know for a fact" but I have never said that about MP and UA.
I have simply researched common ground, coincidences, and potential for something between the two companies.
If anything happens between the 2 then that would be awesome.. As of now I have NOT traded based off of this conjecture. Its basically an added bonus if it happens.
If I knew for a fact it was going to happen then first of all i wouldn't be posting about it, surely that would get me in trouble.. and I would more than likely find a way to get my hands on as much money as possible and dump it into this stock! lol
I have been doing my research between these two companies based off what "savageinlimbo" has been saying on the yahoo board. Some say he has no credibility, but lets be honest, who on these boards have REAL credibility?.... The way I see it.. He's been posting this for a while now.. if he cared about credibility he would have given full details.. then again if he did that I'm sure he would get into some SEC trouble for insider info.. He has been bashed every time he claims this but he is still there claiming the same thing.. Also recently he has said that its more of a partnership than a buyout.. I remember updating this board on that as well...
The way I see it, there is a little bit of truth to everything.. however minuscule that truth may be.. its still there.. comparatively codie is on the other side of this spectrum... he posts constant negativity... I think we can all agree that it gets a little annoying, however, there are truths to his post. This company has done some bad stuff... I am fully aware of these company actions, and don't need to read them daily which is why I have chosen to ignore him. This savageinlimbo person has consistently posted this information.... these 2 are just 2 sides of the spectrum.. and I'm not sure about anyone else but i'm not here to invest in MP's past.. I'm here for the potential... On their own MP is going to be huge for us from these levels..anything with UA is just an added bonus to me..
I won't say good luck, that implies taking a gamble.. For anyone entertaining this conjecture regarding MP and UA, i suggest you take some time to do your research on the 2 companies, and key personnel in each company.. see if you can find some good DD.. whether it good or bad I welcome the information.. its just repetitive information that i'm not to fond of.. as i get it the first time.. If this potential partnership can be disproved with facts then I welcome it as well..
Hope everyone has a good day.. talk to yall soon.
very nice.. and you know he's pushin the brand on them. if he hasnt already... what if the players love the supps so much they wanted to hang out with Cory?!
Nice. Did you get the post last night about "m&o knits"?
I'm looking into them today.
Also important to note that they make high quality shirts... UA probably doesn't weave their own shirts in house... And they more than likely buy shirts and press icons, labels, graphics and whatever else on... And stitch the UA symbol in... Worth looking into..
Guess i have a task for tomorrow... As well as brushing up on my Spanish for writing a letter to that company tomorrow.
