"Any guess on finra naked shorts today?"

The idea of seeing Stafford and White naked shorting this stock is not a pretty picture!

IMO

Congrats to everyone who dumped all their shares between $4.70 and $4.79 yesterday!

With Johnny S. Stafford the Turd and Little Stevie White manipulating the SP it doesn't really mean squat what a companies financials are. The share price will be whatever they decide it's going to be on any given day.

Next trade should be July or ASM in October, this is probably dead money till then.

IMO

Voted the best line from this recent pump and dump.........

Wow, you got it absolutely right!

What were Jesus last words to Roger Lias?

"Don't do anything till I get back!"

or maybe it was Johnny S. Stafford who told him that............!.

Look at the chart 9/20/18 where Johnny S. Stafford's good buddy our new BOD Joel McComb sold.

It was all downhill from there! Thanks for the heads up Johnny!

And Chey, in answer to your question that no one will touch, "It seems odd to me that you can buy October 2.50 calls for 1.90, I assume equivalent to a pps of 4.40. Is that really cheap or am I looking at this wrong?"

It's because, if we are lucky, that's what the share price will be then, $4.40.

IMO

Without March contract news here's what happens in April!

This is what the letter will probably look like when it comes from Stafford and Little Stevie White. It was actually written by White and his partner to another company a few years ago. This is what they do, slaughter companies they have invested in at the expense of all the shareholders they have fooled into believing them.

"The Company is Hopelessly Subscale The chart below shows The Company's SG&A spending as a percentage of sales and operating margin for every quarter The Company has been public.

We believe three important facts are made clear by this chart: 1) The Company has never reported an operating profit; 2) The Company is unprofitable because it must spend an average of 65% of its sales on SG&A; and 3) despite increased investment in SG&A of up to 106% of sales, The Company has not been able to achieve any meaningful revenue growth.

The only reasonable conclusion that can be drawn from these facts is that The Company is hopelessly subscale. The Company has already failed once to drive revenue growth from increased sales & marketing spending and there is no reason to believe another experiment would lead to a different result. Furthermore, after burning $4 million of cash in Q1 2014, The Company simply does not have the balance sheet to support sustained losses from an increased sales & marketing investment.

The chasm to significant profitability is too wide to cross and this leaves the Company with no viable path out of its unprofitable subscale purgatory other than a sale to a strategic acquirer.

The Company is Worth More to a Strategic Acquirer than as an Independent Company There is no doubt that The Company has good technology and products, and operates in a market with meaningful barriers to entry. There is also no doubt that these assets are stranded in a subscale organization from which shareholders have derived little value. Fortunately, there are other companies with the infrastructure to realize substantial cost and revenue synergies from a Company acquisition and thus put The Company's assets to better use."

Sounds just like PPHM/CDMO..........SOON......!

BRIAN L. SHEEHY ANOTHER SHADY CHARACTER EMERGES?

CDMO’s 6% holder………..

First off, Mr. Sheehy presently has nothing to do with Nathan’s Hot Dogs other than the fact he eats there.

ISZO CAPITAL LP 415 Madison Ave. 14 Floor NYC is a 10”x10” windowless cubicle and is nothing more than a mailing address to create the illusion Brian has a NYC presence. The phone number associated with this address, 813-794-2104 is actually the phone number for CryoCell International of which Mr. Sheehy is a director.

Cryo-Cell (OTCMKTS: CCEL) is a cord blood storage facility located in the boondocks outside Tampa, FL and is Brian’s largest holding. This business in and of itself is questionable when compared with its peers.

ISZO LP's return over the last 3 years is -5.5%

http://www.symmetric.io/hedge-fund/ISZO-CAPITAL-MANAGEMENT-LP-RATING.html


So how did Mr. Brian Sheehy stumble upon on our CDMO?

Well, Brian worked (works?) at Wells Fargo as a "Loan Originations Associate". Does he have some inside info regarding an upcoming placement? Sure sounds like that would be a "conflict of interests" to me.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-l-sheehy-a5831990

or

Brian owes Johnny Stafford a favor and is PARKING STOCKS for him in ISZO so that Johnny doesn’t have to report to the SEC how many shares he is actually holding and Brian might receive a fee for this? Could it be Brian is going to vote these shares in accordance with Johnny’s wishes? I’m thinking Johnny and Little Stevie may want to separate themselves from sending the letter to close up or cheap sell CDMO as it would look all too planned if they were to do this themselves and this might be why Mr. Sheehy is now with us.

On a side note, Mr. Sheehy previously was Managing Member at Black Horse Capital Management LLC. Black Horse is currently in litigation with at least 2 small bio/pharma’s that deals went sour on where they were trying to take over these companies. What a surprise!

So what is it about PPHM/CDMO that we only attract what appear to be scumbags?

AIMO

Or maybe Brian L. Sheehy is PARKING STOCKS.....

for Johnny S. Stafford and others. Having worked for Wells Fargo the worlds most corrupt bank, Brian may have learned a few tricks to help him succeed in the world of finance.

Stock parking is an illegal measure by which a broker arranges to sell shares to another party to reduce their position for disclosure deadlines, with the understanding that the original broker will purchase the shares back later at a profit to their receiving broker.

Brian L. Sheehy owns the following crappy stocks....

None of which seem to trade at all just like CDMO. I'm guessing he was set up with CDMO so he could vote these shares whichever way he was told to for the upcoming liquidation. It's all so obvious, Sheehy is just a Johnny Stafford puppet just like Little Stevie White.

So from what I gather here. Roger is in secret talks for contracts that he doesn't want to announce because they are years away from meaning anything so they can keep the SP low so they can do another placement of cheap shares to be able to buy more stainless cans to go with the empty stainless cans we already have but this will fill the empty space we have been renting for the last few years and this will add value to the company for when they sell it.

Who would have thought someone could come up with such a brilliant plan.

Johnny S. Stafford the Turd and Little Stevie White putting the screws to shareholders again today. How many more years are we going to hear the SP isn't moving because options need to be awarded. We heard this same excuse how many times about the crooks King and Company. Just the same BS over and over!

STOCK MANIPULATION by the likes of Stafford and White drove us to the last RS that pushed King and the three amigos out, what's next?

Waiting for Johnny to tell his BOD buddy Joel to buy, maybe that will be a clue that we all should.

"Naked shorting is the illegal practice of short selling shares that have not been affirmatively determined to exist."

"These short sales are almost always done only by options market makers because they allegedly need to do so in order to maintain liquidity in the options markets. However, these options market makers are often brokers or LARGE HEDGE FUNDS who abuse the options market maker exemption."

Couldn't be Ronin, SWIM Partners or Tappan.........?

They don't MANIPULATE STOCKS, do they?

Johnny and Little Stevie White were rolling on the floor laughing their asses off when they saw the Pantginis "buy rating with a price target of $11". Avid's fate was sealed when these clowns took control of this company. At least the King and Company crooks tried to keep the SP up. Johnny and Little Stevie are just here to fill the whole with dirt and with Roger Liar in their pocket that is exactly what they are going to do, bury it once and for all.

Just look at the head games Johnny and Stevie are playing sending the SP even lower on a up market day. Johnny is getting everyone greased up for the low ball sale of the company in the $5 range and everyone will be thrilled to get it.

"55% naked short today"

Probably the result of Johnny S. Stafford the Turd and Little Stevie White.

This is what they are up to.........

Parking vs. Kiting

"Parking" is also used to describe a form of share kiting. In these cases, brokerage firms attempt to cover undeclared short positions (shares which the broker owes) whose stock was not delivered by the settlement date. Rather than performing a buy-in transaction, these firms collude with one another and, by delaying the settlement process, inflate the number of shares available for trade in the secondary market.

Stock parking represents collusion and artificial manipulation of the market. As is often the case with SEC regulations, the severity of the punishment for colluding to park shares largely depends on the severity of the infraction; the number of shares traded, the amount of taxable income unregistered and the scale of the conspiracy. Small violations can incur little more than a small fine and a ban from trading securities. Larger cases are prosecuted more severely; in a notable case in 1989, corporate raider Paul Bilzerian was convicted on nine counts of tax fraud related to a stock parking scheme and was sentenced to four years in prison and a fine of $1.5 million.

along with this........

What is Parking

Parking is the illegal practice of selling shares to another party with the understanding that the original owner will buy them back after a short time. The goal of parking (also referred to as "stock parking") is to conceal a stock's real ownership while maintaining the appearance of regulatory compliance.

Breaking Down Parking

Stock parking is an illegal measure by which a broker arranges to sell shares to another party to reduce their position for disclosure deadlines, with the understanding that the original broker will purchase the shares back later at a profit to their receiving broker. Brokerages try to park stocks to keep their holdings legal under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) guidelines during disclosure periods, or to appear as though they have fulfilled all of their obligations by the settlement date for a particular trade.

Sometimes individual stock brokers park stocks without their employer's knowledge. In these instances, the broker may have moved the shares to conform to the internal regulations of their brokerage, rather than to avoid an SEC violation. Sometimes two individual stock brokers can collude to make their personal profits unbeknownst to either of their companies with this arrangement. Often, the broker is trying to temporarily avoid disclosing long-term holdings that they want to continue holding; this can be because their total holdings won't withstand federal scrutiny if they retain all their long-term holdings, or because their brokerage firms hold penalties for aged stocks.

"If you loose money, we loose money...."

Johnny S. Stafford the Turd


What a load of BS that was and anyone believing the current SP has anything at all to do with the companies fundamentals is dreaming.

Looking like Johnny and Little Stevie are planning to continue with their shorting tomorrow when the Nasdaq short trigger is off again.

"I do not think we will get much"

Exactly, send the liquidation letter already and put this POS company out of its misery!

U.S. HEMP ROUNDTABLE

December 17, 2018

As we await the official presidential signing of the 2018 Farm Bill (our sources predict the ceremony to take place on Tuesday or Wednesday), it’s time to give thanks to the extraordinary leaders who brought us to the precipice of hemp legalization. The list is long – Senators Wyden, Paul, Schumer and Merkley…Congressmen Comer, Polis, Massie, Blumenauer, Goodlatte, Peterson and Conaway…and so many more.

But at the top of that list stands Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Without him, we would never have secured legalization so quickly. No matter your political viewpoint, we owe Leader McConnell a debt of gratitude.

Our general counsel, Jonathan Miller, was long a political opponent of McConnell’s. The former State Treasurer of Kentucky, Jonathan was perhaps the most liberal gubernatorial candidate in state history, and chaired the Kentucky Democratic Party. But after working with McConnell and his team for nearly seven years, he is grown deeply appreciative of McConnell’s leadership on hemp.

Jonathan wrote an op-ed that was picked up by several newspapers about their improbable, extraordinary journey. Read it here. And check out here some of the other press that the Roundtable has been getting during our victory lap

US HEMP ROUNDTABLE NEWS

DEC.4, 2018


As reported in this space earlier, a deal has been reached on the 2018 Farm Bill that includes the full text of the Hemp Farming Act, providing permanent legalization of hemp and popular hemp products like cannabidiol (CBD). Final passage of the bill was expected to take place this week, before Congress adjourns for the holidays.

However, in honor of the nation’s mourning for the late President George H. W. Bush, the House has canceled all votes for this week, while the Senate will not convene until after the Bush funeral today.

The next votes in the House are scheduled for Monday morning, December 10, so the Farm Bill is expected to be passed sometime that week. While you can never predict what will happen on Capitol Hill, the stars look bright for imminent permanent legalization. Read more here.

Keep calm and continue to follow this space for further updates. In the meantime, if you haven’t had a chance to contact your Members of Congress to urge them to support the Farm Bill with hemp legalization, please use our easy online portal:

Johnny S.S.3 aka Ronin own(s)(ed) preferred so one need to ask how would he make the most money dumping them now having inside information to what's going on, never mind the fact that he orchestrates it all.

In considering westjitter’s post, 1) I don’t believe the company is going out of business. 2) Buying common to make more money from CC news. Not enough time for that unless volume goes up in the next few days. 3) Johnny probably doesn’t need tax loss selling from all the money he has made off of all of the CDMO shareholders.

So PD could be correct about a placement which some of us have already mentioned. Now the question is why, buy back all the preferred or expansion. Lias has mentioned get rid of preferred. The idea of build it and they will come is possible but expansion on the hopes a Halo Phase 3 pans out is questionable as we all know how Phase 3's go. Along with the fact, time to build and site approval is a good year plus + so that's a factor.

So whatever the reason for a possible placement we have to wonder how low will Johnny drop the share price so he can buy in cheap with his preferred sale funds and then run the price up to sell again, wash, rinse, repeat. The kicker will be if BOD Joel buys back in on a share price drop.

The buy-out option, another possibility. The recent low volume walk down from $6.50 would make anything higher than where we are now attractive but again volume is so low that rumor seems unlikely.

So many puzzle pieces! Let's call Little Stevie, I'm sure he knows what's going on. Oh wait, "I'm sorry, the number you are trying to reach has been changed or disconnected, please check your number and try your call again"!


AIMO

Johnny and Little Stevie and probably Tappan have been shorting the price down for some time now, well before the market took this plunge. Probably setting up for another Wells Fargo offering of 10M shares in the $3.50 range. When our BOD member Joel gets the buy signal form his buddy Johnny S.S 3 we will then see the SP start moving up.

IMO

The Janney analyst must be pissed for believing the liar Lias.

That Ronin BOD guy Joel is one smart dude to get out when he did!

"Last regular hours trade 269K. That is more than what had traded up to that time."

Do you recall if this was green or red?

TIA

Level II has the 4 major shorters on the BID/ASK

Well Ronin's BOD buddy Joel sold half his 50K shares @ $6.58 and the other half @ $6.48. I guess when Ronin's BOD selects start selling shares it should be a clue for all of us. Nice to have a little insider help for making a profit when you own an activist controlled stock like CDMO.

47% short volume Oct.2

With CDEL shorting today this is an informative read.

"The list above is based on order of recent activity with AEXG being the most active in transactions and CRTC the least active. The “Three C’s”: Citadel Securities (CDEL), Canaccord Genuity (CSTI) and Cantor Fitzgerald (CANT) are almost always on a ticker together with the four more trusted sources mentioned above. While these “Three C’s” are rarely toxic diluters, they can be heavy short sellers at times, taking advantage of a good thing which is part of the game."

Big excitement going into this new crew's ASM!

NOT.............!

There is always next year if we don't get a $10 buyout offer before Christmas.

"until we get some evidence of CDMO solving the overcapacity dilemma..."

Maybe they could mix up some medical marijuana in those empty stainless steel bioreactors and get the SP up.

Thanks!

Are you SHORT CVSI? Interesting rapid decline after your prediction.

The DEA move is a BIG positive for CVSI. Why is that, one reason, when CVSI begins their Phase 1 clinical trials the medical grade CBD they will be using will be consider a legal Class 5 DEA approved substance. Going forward that's enormous.

Last day for those Sept. $7.50 calls.

Will there be an end of day push to get it there?
