Again, only focusing on one part of the business, and ignoring the public side of the company, is only telling half the story. Let's tell the whole story :)
At least it opened. There's so many legitimate things to criticize, like the entire handling of the public side of the company, the tanking stock price, etc. If we're going to talk about Guelph, at least it's open and bringing in money :)
Cheapies...nice pick ups... load up the boat! How long are we going to kid ourselves with this stock?
Haha so is 2030!
It's unlikely to get any momentum going without the company actively attracting new investors. For whatever reason they either don't want to do this, or don't have time because they don't have anyone solely devoted to IR. Unfortunately, I only see stagnation in the foreseeable future... which is sad because they have an exciting story to tell.
Clueless is a best case scenario imo... I'm hoping there's not something nefarious going on. I continue to contact the company with no response...
I plead with all investors to contact the company and demand they stop neglecting the public side of this company. We're all going to lose big time if this isn't addressed. No more whistling past the graveyard. They need to attract new investors and promote the stock, otherwise we're all toast... call or email them today. We can't wait any longer...
I have no doubt they are showing up for work to run the cafes. The issue here is they do not show up for work to run the public part of this company. I don't believe they have the foggiest idea how to handle this part, so they just ignore it... and we all suffer as a result. Just look at share price, it says it all...
I keep encouraging all shareholders to contact the company to show up to WORK managing the public side of this company...
The moment we learned Rogen didn't re-sign with the company, I knew there were big problems internally. I was hoping I was wrong, but their lack of communication and vaguely written statements has proved me right, unfortunately. And still they don't have a proper CEO... Its clear they don't know what they're doing when it comes to handling the public side of the company, which is why I presume they completely neglect it.
No CEO, increased dilution, stock price in the toilet, and no communication from management. Not a recipe for success unfortunately. But hey, they're menus will be perfect and we will have some satisfied customers this weekend. Let's keep whistling past the graveyard...
Management is non-existent as it relates to the public side of the company. It's a joke actually. They do nothing to draw investor interest, AS is increasing, and stock price has plummeted... but let's keep discussing the food menu, and how we're going to get processes more streamlined. The company is blowing it, but let's keep whistling past the graveyard...
Can't make money with non-existent management. Do they even know they run a public company?
Good news I guess, but why is everything with this company always NEXT? Next week, next month, next quarter, next year, soon...
We need management that takes the bull by the horns. We like to claim we're the premier board game cafe, but in the end we only have 4 Canadian locations and 3 in the US. And with those, its unclear which ones are really successful. Anyone with restaurant experience and money could outpace us and start opening board game cafes like crazy. Not to mention management here completely ignores shareholders...
Again, I urge all shareholders to contact management and light a fire under them. We need action, and definitely need someone devoted to the public side of the company. We presumably had a ton of new eyeballs on us, and nothing from the company...
Looks like management blew another opportunity to promote the stock, when it appears they had many new eyeballs looking at them (albeit mistakenly). I hope everyone continues to contact them to let them know that they do indeed run a public company, and their absolute silence is killing shareholders...
Management should be extra ashamed now that this stock has shown that it will move big time on momentum and stock promotion... but still they remain asleep at the wheel. Over 25M shares traded and its down, doesn't bode well for the company.
Why would there be buyers when management does nothing to attract any. This ticker used to be exciting; it has now become a sad, desolate mess... oh yea, and AS increasing soon.
I have, and not once have I ever received a response from Ben. Again I ask, do you think he knows he even has shareholders? Not building confidence and no way to run a public company. Keep on whistling...
I wonder why management doesn't protect its shareholders? Does Ben even know he has any? The neglect is mind blowing to me. Is there any doubt why the stock price is in the toilet? that AS is about to go way up?
I'll say again what I've been saying for months, the company here along with so many shareholders seem to be whistling past the graveyard with their laissez-faire attitude toward the public side of the company. This stock should be 10x higher with much less dilution imo... but I guess whistling is more fun.
At this point all I think we can do is to keep contacting them. I suppose if it gets bad enough, there's always legal action...
2 posts today. Management great at getting attention on this ticker...
Management here does not seem to understand that they even run a public company. I've actually never seen anything like it... the absolute neglect is mind blowing to me. is there any wonder why the stock price is in the toilet? that AS is about to go way?
I'll say again what I've been saying for months, the company snd so many shareholders seem to be whistling past the graveyard with their laissez-faire attitude toward the public side of the company. This stock should be 10x higher with much less dilution imo... but I guess whistling is more fun.
Yes I keep emailing them so they know we're out here...
Please tell management to start moving it along by communicating to investors that they run a public company... Do you think they even know their company's public? It doesn't appear so. I've reached out and told them they need to promote the stock and communicate with the investment world. But alas, nothing... and look where the stock price is, in the toilet. Oh and AS will be increasing soon...
At least Roger was trying to talk to investors back then, albeit in a somewhat disorganized manner. However at a certain point 3 or 4 years ago, he stopped talking and management has mostly ignored shareholders since (except Rogen). Ever since that time, shareprice has plummeted. It's one of the worst charts I've ever seen and management doesn't seem to care.. Imo losing Rogen was a terrible blow to the company, especially the way it happened so suddenly and with no explanation. But hey, explain something... why would you do that. It's not like a public company or anything...
No new investors are going to step up to the plate when management completely ignores investors... this stock us down HUGE over the last few years and management does little about it. It's very sad...
Thanks. I emailed them yesterday requesting updates, however, I've emailed them several times and have never received a response...
Who is dumping in your opinion?
Hardly a dump, but this does demonstrate the company's complete ineptitude navigating the equity markets. We had nice momentum going the last few sessions, and instead of pouring gasoline on the fire, they threw a cold bucket of ice water on it. Now losing ground again. They may be good managers of cafes, etc but for the love of God they need someone on board who understands the public side of the company. The 4 year chart is a trainwreck...
My understanding is the new OTC rules come down hard on non reporting pink sheet companies, does that sound right? FUNN should not be effected?
Would be real nice if management took this unexpected up day and took the ball and ran with it. Start telling your story to investors. Light a flame under this thing. Let's Go! Do your job!
Problem is we already know this. It's actually overdue and at this point somewhat anti-climactic. I'm afraid what's also going to be couched into this news is a raise in AS. The company continues to neglect the public side of the company. Some here seem wholly focused on a new location here or there or the number of potential customers on a Friday night, and though obviously important, it's not the full picture. There's also a public side of the company that appears to neglected.
Public companies must have at least one person whose sole purpose is to talk to the investing world, get new eyeballs, increase share price, minimize dilution... we appear to be a rudderless ship in this area, and it's scary. I don't think people appreciate how dangerous this actually is. Again, I request all shareholders reach out to management and demand they start telling their story to the world and getting share price up. Otherwise this may end very poorly for all of us...
In my opinion that only happens when management stops neglecting shareholders and investors. It's as if they don't realize they run a public company. I hope everyone is emailing them to let them know they have to speak to investors, get new eyeballs on this ticker, garner some excitement. Right now they're dropping the ball... you have a good story to tell, so tell it!
I suppose that's true, but the real problem here isn't the popularity of boardgames but the complete negligence of the public side of this company. Dilution increasing, share price plummeting. Management has no control over its messaging to the investors. I'm not sure I've seen this type of neglect before...
No, I know about the cover charge, but as someone else mentioned, that helps cover the slow turnover at the tables. I think as shareholders we should be very concerned how the PUBLIC aspect of the company is being handled, and to date it appears they are dropping the ball big time. Again, I urge all shareholders to contact the company and demand they tell their story to the investing world. Otherwise this could end very badly. It's already headed in that direction... just look at share price and dilution over the past couple of years. Not good...
Unfortunately they don't. The vast majority of private restaurants fail. Profit margins are too small. I'm afraid that's where we're headed here. The constant issuance of new shares that are worth very little, and tiny profit margins... a recipe for disaster. At least if the company got stock price up by promoting it, it would curb one side of the equation. But alas they remain silent as stock price plummets and dilution increases...
And keep contacting management.. Keep telling them they must promote the stock and get new investor eyeballs on this ticker. Each day this doesn't happen is another day wasted and another day with potentially more dilution. Bottom line... promote the damn stock or risk going under. Sad but true.
I have more than once, which makes the company's neglect even more damaging imo...
The problem with that strategy is the stock could become a diluted pig before the company grows and stock price grows on its on. You can have a growing company but still lose money on the stock bc the public side of the company was mismanaged. I'm afraid that's what's happening here.
I'm not saying the company should "pump" its stock, since that conjures images of fraud, that the company is being deceitful. What I am saying is that FUNN must tell its story to investors. Tell it in an exciting and honest way. It has such a great story to tell, but for some unknown reason they remain silent. I don't even think there's much of an argument here, simply look at stock price over the last few years. Investor interest is close to zero, and it's sad...
I won't even get into how it's good business practice to have a higher stock price, can raise more money with fewer shares, etc. They must promote the damn stock or risk going under, no matter how good the underlying concept of SL may be...
Roger doesn't run the company anymore, Ben and Aaron so.
To Roger's credit, he did promote the stock early on in his tenure. The stock ran at that time. Then for some reason about 4 years ago, the company went silent and the stock has tanked ever since.
I plead to Aaron and Ben... promote the darn stock! Get new investors interested in the company! You have a wonderful story to tell, so tell it!
I've emailed them several times and continue to do so. If nothing else, it could be evidence when they get sued for breach of fiduciary duty...
Company does nothing to draw interest... no idea why they neglect this part of the company.
