According to the SEC, small companies ($value and/or #stockholders) do not need to spend their money keeping investors informed. SEC recognizes that $ spent by them are better spent on growth and employees. Large companies are a different story, that is where people and retirement funds put their money for the long term and information is key.
Investors putting in money into this company are taking a chance on the future of the company. If they have to keep worrying whether you are happy, they will fail. Last year they thought they would try that and were planning on becoming a reporting company but found that the expense and time was not where they needed to put the companies time and money.
They have good intentions! Hang in there and keep adding to you position when you can at these cheep prices!
If you like the product, push it. They need all the help they can get.
Info will come.
Investors are not customers.
Bashing the company does nothing for the long term and if they are doing their job, they do not have the time to hold your hand.
Put your money into this company on the prospect of a long term gain and keep adding to it if you like the product and the fact that they have a patent on it and future products in the pipeline.
If you are looking for a quick buck, go find something with momentum elsewhere.

termination of registration says they do not have to report if less than 300 shareholders or less than 500 shareholders and total assets of less than $10,000,000.
I am assuming that their focus right now is on getting cash flow and increased production. Pushing the stock would increase # of shareholders and cause them to spend much needed assets to produce quarterly reports. Year end is in June, so they probably will update us when they have to file with the IRS.
The product is selling so I'm hanging in.
Standard verbiage when its been over three months since the last quarterly report. Goes away once a report is posted.
If no production, no super wholesale price, no Walmart.
Buyers need sellers.
Personally, I would rather have silence than over hyping by the company. We know that they are selling product. Settling GETG lawsuit gives Zuckerman some cash to work with.
Court settled Zuckerman's lawsuit with GETG
On November 20, 2009, the Zuckerman Parties filed a lawsuit against us in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, alleging that they suffered damages of not less than $6 million as a result of our refusal to allow them to transfer the shares they allegedly owned or controlled at the time. Mathew Zuckerman also sought declaratory relief that was not in violation of the non-compete provisions contained in his employment agreement with us. Mathew Zuckerman is one of our founders and a former executive officer and director of us. On February 19, 2010, we had the action moved to federal court. On March 30, 2011, the United States District Court for the Central District of California issued an Order settling the case. The terms of the Order are as follows:
1.
We pay the plaintiffs the sum of $100,000.
2.
We issue 3.5 million shares of our common stock to plaintiffs.
3.
We register the shares on any registration statement we file after March 30, 2011.
4.
The certificates evidencing will bear a legend that they have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and that any sales of the Shares must be made pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration.
5.
On or after September 5, 2011, we will use our best efforts to obtain an opinion of counsel of our choosing that the legend stating that the shares are restricted securities and may only be sold pursuant to an effective registration or an exemption therefrom may be removed from the certificates evidencing the shares and, once we obtain such an opinion, we will instruct our transfer agent to remove such legend.
6.
Once the shares become tradable, plaintiffs may not trade on the market in any one week more than 10% of the previous week’s sales volume of our shares as reported by the OTCBB.
7.
Other than the obligations contained in the term so this settlement, the parties mutually released each other and their officers and directors from all claims and liabilities.
8.
We also released Alkane, Inc. and its officer and directors from all claims relating to or arising from any of the claims or counterclaims asserted in this action. Zuckerman is an officer and a director of Alkane.

CASHFLOW
Received my koozie today. They were prompt and I can now say I got something for the $ I invested though others got theirs for free.
Short interest now at zero

they have cash to give away free koozies
hang in there, quarterly due by the first of the month
is that one 8 ounce bottle or one quart bottle a month?
somebodies piggie bank (daughter or Son's?) $9 for 1000 shares plus $10 commision ($5 if you use Zecco)is a good investment gamble for college!?
Is the Glass half full/ half empty?
1000 and 3000 share trades means the seller (sellers) have gone away (temporarily anyways)
Nice to know they have the cash to give away koozies ("everybody won") and package them and mail them. A positive sign? Or just stupidity?
from GETG annual report
We are involved in a commercial dispute with one of our founders and are being investigated by the SEC.
Mathew Zuckerman Litigation
On November 20, 2009, we were served with a summons and complaint, filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, on behalf of Mathew Zuckerman, one of our founders and our former president and chief operating officer, and other entities that he controls or in which he claims a beneficial interest, alleging that they have suffered damages of not less than $6 million as a result of our refusal to allow them to transfer the shares they allegedly own or control. The complaint also seeks declaratory relief that Mr. Zuckerman is not in violation of the non-compete provisions contained in his employment agreement. By order dated July 7, 2010 the Court scheduled trial to begin on March 15, 2011.
SEC Investigation
On December 11, 2009, we received a subpoena from the SEC requesting documents in connection with the issuance of securities and the removal of restrictive legends from such securities as well as supporting documents for our public announcements. We have and continue to cooperate with the SEC regarding this investigation. We have incurred significant legal expenses in connection with these matters and it is likely that we will continue to incur these expenses in the current year. In addition, management has had to devote a significant amount of time to these matters, time they could have spent on operations of other business related matters. We have not reserved for any future loss that may arise as a result of an adverse outcome in this litigation.
presume its the report ironcondor reported in post 24290 back in June of last year.
Got more myself, but only that which I could lose. Been burned before.
That which will move this stock would be a quarterly report showing that they have cash and cash flow. If, however, it shows no cash again, then they are selling stock to keep it afloat, and it won't be going anywhere soon because it will bring questions as to how long they can keep it up.
Short sale position dropped to 1.15 million from 2 million shares

buy volume is the volume of trades that trade higher than the last trade. Sell volume lower than the last trade and neutral volume no change.
last sale/buy of the day was for 589 shares ($5.30 worth), another piggy bank purchase.
Must be paying for it with end of day sales again.
Until whomever is sell at the end of everyday stops, do not look for any type of move up
no I am not selling
things are going well if they get through this period. I am just trying to figure out why there is so much selling at the end of every day and this is the only one that seems to make sense since the company isn't talking.
If you have other reasons, I would love to hear about them.
Have no facts, but
Best guess is they are financing everything right now with the sale of stock and the next quarterly report will show that the outstanding number of shares have increased. Last quarterly report showed no cash on hand. In addition, somebody knew that this was going to happen and shorted the stock to record level of 2 million+ shares from 5k+ shares. Next week we will be able to see if that increased even more.
(http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/ALKN/short-sales)
Question is, will the supply of company stock run out before cash flow begins, if so SOL.
If You use Zecco with $4.50 fees it would make more sense.
I was just joking, I wouldn't think anybody here would do something so stupid as to buy $5 dollars worth of stock.
So you are the one that buys $5.00 worth of stock at a time, always wondered who would do such a thing.
Only News is "MORE END OF DAY SALES" - must be using day labor?

increased volume sales at end of day, they may be living day to day off of the corporate stock. While they try to get some cash flow going. Cash on hand at end of last quarter was 0, zero, nada.
Also, short interest over 2 million now
