I think your on to it. We have been figuring the same thing but we have a few ideas. Been watching closely. Even tried to offer the company some financing to assist In what we think they are doing but he wouldn’t take it. He knows I was on the board a lot and even mentioned disclosing what I know several times. He wouldn’t even confirm if I was right. They are all very careful about who knows what. I bet there are only a few in the company that really know what their plan is. These military guys know how to keep secrets. I think we are close but too early to tell if our timeline is right. You might be able to help with your folks and access so let me know what you dig up.
Right you are. Company could do reverse merger which they did in the beginning or they could sell at premium pps. This is normal and can easily be done. Just need to find the right company to do it with. I have been looking but have not been able to pin one down. A few potentials but nothing more than that. It also be an S1 filed with either them or a new company which means we won’t know nothing until it’s happening. I figure that’s what they would want anyways so no one could trade ahead of it.
Oh I get it now. That actually makes sense.
That’s actually a good point fella. What difference does it make how many socks come in a package or are available. Don’t matter if they come in 3, 6 or a dozen if you can still order the same sock right?
Mcol, calm down fellar. Gonna give your self a heart attack. Lol
Oh boy. You are really fired up today but that’s not what the man said and you know it. He ain’t never said that they weren’t sold out now. The man said they have been sold out before and been restocked. All these alerts on a Saturday for all these messages. Whoo boys. Calm down. The socks are selling and yes they keep on coming. Arguing over it don’t get anybody no where. The company needs to deliver more than socks anyways. I think all
yall are missing the point. Just an old farmers opinion.
Your getting pulled in fellar. Lol. I sent you the answers to your questions.
I stopped in to give an update but after reading all the posts for the past few days I was thinking on a few things said. I was wondering if you could clear up this whole thing with the office and old CEO. Seems like that fellar has the inside track on things like a few others here.
Got a few messages about some legal building rental stuff goings on with the company. That’s stuff is from those fellars years ago that got them into a mess. I think they even got an office and never paid. That’s was not part of the company originally I think. Not for sure though. Might have been a agreement they had with them but I know that office was too small for them which is why they moved into the bigger place. The boss has a meeting in San Antonio the week after next and I will be sittin down with him for a visit. I will let y’all know what happens. Good to see a few familiar faces are still around.
I’m sure that a merger is the road to uplist for these guys. It’s the only way they can do it with the least amount of trouble. It will have to be a company on one of the big boards. My money is on NYSE because I know the Chief likes it. My partner and I tried looking into things to see which company it could be but there are just too many and the other companies they work with are private or simply too big to believe they would take over them. Your guess is as good as ours. It does look like things are ramping up because they actually mentioned mergers in the letter and said they plan on doing them. If I had to guess I would say within a month at the most. They are not going to want this out there too long and they will have to file soon to make it public. We will probably hear something in a few weeks. IMO
I have a call into the man himself. Waiting to hear back
I was just stopping in to wish EVERYONE a very Merry Christmas and hopefully safe New Year. Best wishes to all on the board. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sure thing. Contact me in January. I have family coming in for holidays and New Year so shoot me a line mid January
Good man! The others will come around after things turn around. Well may not Litar but that’s what I like about him. He’s always been consistent and doesn’t hide his hatred for the company. Lol. He’s genuine. Gotta love that!
Tyaz!!! Oh boy where do I begin. I’m praying for you. Lol. You always make me laugh and it’s good to see you are still here although I wish you would stay away from those types of women. You’re too old for that and can do better. The biblical reference to Mary Magdalene was a hoot but I know I shouldn’t have laughed at that. The lords going to get me for that one.
I hope you have a Merry Christmas and SAFE New Year!!!
Good lord. I see all these messages coming in and opened my iHub and have more messages than I can get to. Lol. I’m sorry folks but I simply can’t get to them all and have been very busy. You folks have a lot of energy. You never get tired of this stuff. Lol. I did read these last few messages and I have to give it Mcol, he really got into it although I think he’s saying too much. I said much of this stuff in the past of course I didn’t go into the detail he’s done. If folks think the company is bad then leave it alone fella and if they love it, good for them. You gotta get these folks to work together so you can help each other. I tried but they didn’t want it. Maybe you will have better luck but I wouldn’t go that far into detail. It might throw things off and no one should want that.
You boys are wasting your time bickering over this. You will never get them to see it your way until the price goes up. Then the CEO will be a genius. Hell, he will even be better than your Steve Jobs. Lol. It’s December! What difference does it make anyway. Wait for January and we will see what we see. Then make your figuring and do what you figure. Merry Christmas everyone. Hope everyone has a better day and good holiday. I’m going back on break from here for a few weeks.
I have said this before and I will say it again, if it wasn’t for that fella, we all would have lost everything already! It’s because of him that I have not lost all of my investment and why I stick around. He’s definitely taken his time fixing things but I have to believe it’s because it was that bad. 3 years ago they were on the verge of shutting it all down. Now they have a product and are making money. The folks that caused this mess are gone but if you think it’s really that bad now then maybe that should give us an idea of just how bad those crooks screwed things up and how hard it’s probably been to get things going again. Just remember that one of those decisions you are criticizing was to not take the advice of lawyers and accountants to file bankruptcy, another was to use his own money to fund the company and another was to stick around and deliver a product. Not defending the man like he’s perfect but to try and oust the man who saved the company and our money from becoming another pink sheet casualty is just foolhardy and shortsighted. If he goes we definitely lose all our money. IMO
He just needs to pick up the pace and get his head out of his rear end with these deadlines he keeps missing!
I take a break and when I come back good ol Tyaz is here to make me laugh. You always make me laugh at this board and what it’s become. Maybe one day we will be able to turn this board around. Lol. Not likely.
Good to see you’re still around making sure these young bucks don’t take things to seriously around here.
For those interested, I spoke with The CEO this morning after speaking with a young man that seemed very knowledgeable about the company and public markets. Seems like they have added some smart folks to the team. What was interesting was the fellas background. Very knowledgeable about corporate and capital structure. He was brought in about 9 months ago. The timing interested me.
CEO was also very informative. He’s aware that folks are mad about stock price and the delays they have constantly had. He said he’s fixing those issues and that it will take time. I asked about a possible merger or sale of the company and he really wouldn’t answer those types of questions either way. He did say he would be open to a merger if the right circumstances and company came along. That was the first time he said anything like that so I’m not sure if that meant anything.
As for the products being out for Christmas, he said everyone is working to make sure that happens but he won’t know until a call he has tomorrow to see if they are on that timeline. We discussed a few other things but the rest others can call and get their own questions answered. That’s the meat and potatoes of the talk for now.
Why leave now and definitely lose out. Might want to reconsider to wait until new year. Then we can get our bearings. That’s what I’m doing
I agree. He can fix things whenever he wants. He’s the boss for Pete sake! This seems intentional. No way the man doesn’t know this is a problem. The price down is for some reason a good thing. I still think this has to do with a merger because of the math. We will see if I am wrong. Either way by January 1 he owes me an explanation. Times up. I waited what I was willing to wait so come the new year we need a very clear and a VERY good explanation bout where we are and where we are headed with ACCURATE timelines! I believe the man is genuine but this has to get moving. He’s done a lot but unfortunately I’m not getting any younger and he needs to get this company moving along!
A day late but Happy Thanksgiving y’all. Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving
I agree and have said as much many times
I have been saying this for a year. Maybe more. I think it’s very likely they are planning to make their move soon. By end of year. To me it would make more sense to make announcement in January when everyone is back from vacation. No one cares in December and I think it would be a waste of really good PR. I have call out to CEO to discuss his new timelines since it’s obvious the new products aren’t coming out this week in time for sales
I think the company was focused on R&D more than the public market side of things and it bit them in the behind. That and while he was focused on development the original guys he merged with took advantage of his inexperience in running a public company, his distraction with building the tech and company and his trust. That’s why he was so mad and took control. He’s not a bad guy. He just trusted the wrong guys and it hurt the company. All of us have trusted the wrong type in our lives. Tough lesson to learn. Many wonder why I support him and it’s because of how he reacted when everything went to hell. He stuck it out. He didn’t quit and near as I can tell he found a way to turn it around. He’s in the middle of fixing things. That’s worth something in my book.
I think there are other company’s that know about this company, it’s ceo and what is going on behind the scenes. Those are the companies that would be interested in merging but that is not the only option. I have been thinking lately that maybe a partnership that brought funding might be possible as well. He has very close relationships with other larger defense contractors that might be interested. That’s JMO
Because the ceo very wisely structured the company similar The NY Times and Facebook. His controlling interest can not be bought or transferred. Buying the company does not them control. Also,contracts on done of their military related tech is protected against misuse contractually. Guess who has final say on any tech that can be used as a weapon? Lol. Also, biotech is similarly protected from misuse by him. Anything involving DNA, stem cells, CRISPR, etc has to be approved by him.
He also has relationships with government built over his career. These relationships are what has gotten the company access to certain tech and research which he refuses to discuss but can be seen occasionally by those interested in digging. Ever here of CDIS? Owned by the company and once on their website but was taken down two years ago. Remember what happened two years ago?the company has its hands in more than they reveal
A few of the folks here have sent me messages but I can’t reply to them in private because they aren’t a certain type of member. Not sure how that works. I also changed my membership which goes into effect end of month I think. If you want me to post your response publicly please let me know.
I don’t think we are going to see any changes in cap structure. CEO has been pretty consistent that they aren’t doing anything to AS and there isn’t much left for the OS to be increased. Anything left has either already been spoken for in the 3a10 they did or is going to just sit there
Your questions are involved and complicated. I will do my best to answer them briefly but let me apologize ahead of time because this is going be a long reply. You seem to have a pretty good grip on things so I’m not sure what i can add other than some history on the company. Also, my opinions and speculation are based on my own thoughts so please determine for yourself what is going on here. I’m responding to everyone now but have to leave here in a few so I will get to as many as I can before heading out.
Took a break from the board. Good to see nothing has changed here. Lol. A lot of messages for me. Didn’t realize I was this far backed up. I will drop a line to everyone I can here in a few
NEW QUARTERLYS ARE OUT and they are looking pretty darn good!!! Looks like the made over $90k a month last quarter which is more than double the previous quarter!!
I sure hope so!!!!!!!!!
I’m not sure where that’s from but when I spoke with the company the IR gentleman told me that they were finalizing the packaging for the new HP products. They never said anything about holiday packaging. I apologize for the incorrect accusation
Who said it was holiday packaging? That’s not what the company said at all
Stop with the scam stuff. The company was in the verge of bankruptcy and is now selling products and making revenue. They turned it around from everyone losing to everyone having a chance to eventually make money. That’s not a scam. You want to report them go ahead. It’s your time to waste and your name to make look silly. Do you know how many people complain on companies just because they don’t like the ceo or where the company is headed? You think the SEC is going to waste time looking into a company that is actually selling a product, building revenues and reporting their quarterly? You can’t be that naive.
I think I remember that as well.
The patents originally filed by their head designer Mark Estrada are owned by the company so you want to ask about patents other than the ones they own? That doesn’t really add up to me. A few folks here have already asked him these questions and he already gave us the answers. How many times you going to ask the man the same questions before we look like a bunch of nuts? He also said that they don’t file a lot of patents because once you do the info is public and can be copied overseas or put sensitive technology at a security risk. In fact many defense contractors do not file patents on their technologies. Why don’t you try looking up the patent Lockheed or Northrop Grumman filed on their stealth technology? You won’t find it because they never filed one.
Oh we are back to reporting to the SEC that the company is doing something wrong? That comes around a few times a year. Don’t let them draw you in.
Wow my iHub is ringing nonstop. I have been to Austin office not Tampa office. Met with company and ceo a few times.
I just spoke with company. Mr. Umbra is suppose to call me back. I left message for him. We will see what he has to say about all this. I did find out that the treason he didn’t respond to my email yesterday might have been because he gave everyone who wanted it a half day so they could take their kids to trick or treating. Apparently their are a lot of parents their with youngins
It does say how many are left in inventory under Prime though and I suspect that might be an inventory error. Why ship only 11 pairs? Would cost too much with tariffs and shipping and wouldn’t make sense. I will call and see If I can get a logical answer
You are reading it wrong! Those are the count of sock pairs per package. That’s why when you select 12,3, or 6 it changes. Items per parcel are the sock quantity bud.
