mañana. Things take time, govt at work.
Friday at the latest.
Great article! We are the first company listed, helps to be at the beginning of the alphabet sometimes.
Compare him to Rory Cutaia,
Google that name, a great OTC - Nasdaq opportunity in the offing.
I don’t see how BIEL ever gets to Nasdaq at this rate. Something big would have to happen and as much as I have a soft spot for him, it’s hard to see Andy ringing the Nasdaq bell.
Did anyone submit a video to help ring the Nasdaq bell? And has anyone received confirmation that they will be on the stage? My guess is that those 3(?) shareholders might get advance notice of the actual date. If they aren’t in the NY area, there’s the small matter of flying in to be on the stage.
Who knows, maybe some lucky shareholders were at the table at Cipriani’s.
Beautiful place by the way.
Rory wouldn’t come to ny if Nasdaq wasn’t going to happen this week. There must be some assurance from the sec.
The financials are always a disaster. I'd love for some good news, hype, a full CVS rollout, and maybe expanded clearance so I can sell. A buyout would be even better. No matter what, their quarterly results have disappointed the last several years. I wouldn't bother reading them anymore.
I guess they stopped paying Paul Kopnick or whatever his name was. I think he was answering those emails as a courtesy, but it may be a long time since they paid him. I don't know where the info@biel emails go. Could be like that fyre festival concierge email. I think people get better luck calling, I was just a little lazy. Supposedly a CVS update is coming. I don't think there's anything sinister going on here. Maybe Andy made some questionable moves with the UK OTC thing and not promoting US sales and CVS more, but I think he's sticking to his plan of trying to get broader clearance first. The family's wealthy I guess and can afford to be patient.
My understanding is that they can't be involved in another offering. Logically, it seems it would be hard for them to remain officers in the company, but I've re-read the SEC docs many times and it seems that they just can't be personally involved in issuing shares and the same bizarre IBEX transactions that got them into this mess. If this were a large, functional company traded on NASDAQ or NYSE, the board would probably vote them out, promote Keith or one of the doctors and the Whelans could be more like passive investors/founders like the Sacklers claimed to be (a bad example, I know, but the first one that came to mind).
Thank God. They do have a nice person answering the phone there. I think I may have spoken to the same person after that ridiculous 510k denial. I asked what their strategy was at the time and let her know I still supported the company. I will take their word that there will be a CVS update coming. Let's hope it's a nice clean PR and not a rambling interview.
Agree, there's no way we see another S1A. Give me a break. How many versions need to be filed. That's why we had to wait the two weeks.
Great sign that Rory is in NY! Tomorrow maybe, but definitely by Thursday. Notice of Effectiveness should go up sometime tomorrow if this is going to happen before Friday. I'd rather not have to wait until then.
Company has not responded to my email about the CVS rollout.
$45 minimum, JMO. If I’m wrong I’m wrong and no one will remember. If I’m right I’m Nostradamus and I’ll call everyone’s attention to this prediction.
I emailed info@biel to ask if there will be a full CVS rollout, if there will be a PR, and if there is any reluctance to stock in all 9,000 cvs stores.
Will paste a response if Paul or whomever gets back to me.
Ahead of schedule would be trading on Nasdaq before Friday. Exactly on schedule would be Friday. I’m hoping for tomorrow or Wednesday.
Do you have them locked up with a GTC sell order at a high price? They may want to borrow them because someone wants to short. I’m guessing you hold a decent amount. Some people try lock up their shares so there’s less available. I have no opinion on the matter, this is just a guess.
Theranos only made it to 40 Walgreens and their company was worth billions despite having zero peer-reviewed studies showing that it did anything it was supposed to. If only Andy was an attractive blond in her 20s - the media would eat that story up.
Let me know if you do. I tried looking online, I could only find a box in Spanish from a third party vendor. I am trying to bring a couple boxes to my podiatrist next time I go. I gave an ActiPatch to a pain management doctor previously.
What unsold ActiPatches? Haven’t you been saying they aren’t even on the shelves.
Talk to store managers, get them to order more! Their wellness area does look cool. I looked by their other wraps and TENS products first, but it stands out well when showcased with their other products.
Add CVS in Tarrytown NY to the list. It’s a big cvs with a wellness kiosk/display. They had a nice display and the sign. Only two knee actipatches left. I bought the one in my size and spoke with the store manager, told her it was a great product, and asked her to order more. I had the SKU ready and she took down my name and number, will call me when they are in. I have pics and a receipt with today’s date I’ll upload when I have more time
BIEL on!
My local CVS in New York may have it stocked according to Brickseek. I don't think it's on the list. I'll check it out tomorrow. If they have it, I'll buy everything that they have and ask them to reorder. I'll snap a pick with a dated newspaper and post it if I can figure out how.
While we’ve got some legitimate issues with our CEO, CVS has a great forward-thinking CEO (in addition to billions money and name recognition) who is fighting the good fight with his alternative pain relief products and Wellness centers. Has mentioned ActiPatch in any interviews? Would love to see him plug it and CBD in Cramer interview.
Andy’s put in a ton of work and he’s kept us in the game so far, but please please please give us another PR focusing solely on the expanding CVS rollout. I hope to God there isn’t still resistance to going nationwide on cvs shelves. If there was resistance, my thinking is maybe he was waiting to wider clearance (the same refrain we’ve heard before about waiting to advertise).
I agree completely, I agree with Chaka’s predictions of $50-1000/share. I just thought the Waffle House image was funny. He did talk about making the rounds to family offices last year. I assume Tier 1’s are actually people we have heard of.
At least he saved on conference room costs and catering. I like a CEO who avoids corporate waste.
Yes, they messed up again.
Looks more like a CUSIP.
My E trade VRRB stock converted to a strange symbol: 922337U104.
Anyone else get that?
I believe we will see Nasdaq inside two weeks, but you could be right about a buyout. Could be Oracle or SAP. That might have been the curve ball. It’s not the SEC delay because he just disclosed that.
They can fix it, they changed the symbol back to VRRB after I called.
Looks like we could be in the $10-15 range by Nasdaq. Even if we have to start at the offering price when we uplist (can someone pls confirm whether that will the case, or if we will start trading at the price OTC closes at the night before?), it should quickly pick up to what people were paying on the OTC.
JMO, I haven’t followed prices on an uplist from OTC to NASDAQ before, just the true IPO situation on NASDAQ and NYSE.
Not my style.
They’ve gone to far at this point.
There’s a certain momentum in transactions like this, a lot of time and money has been spent, I’m sure some initial contracts have been signed. Not to mention if he started over, they might get blacklisted for not carrying through with agp.
They need to just close it out and get to Nasdaq and put all this behind us.
That’s the best explanation I’ve heard so far. Sounds like a Wall Street move to me. It’s still worth it to get off here. I sold nothing, and still expect to make plenty.
Some bloodbath! Showing great support. None of us can predict the future. We can read the s1s, but we don’t know the precise day of Nasdaq or how the sp will react. My personal belief is that longs will be pleasantly surprised at where the sp is one week after the uplist.
That sounds like fake news to me. His name does not appear in the indictment.
Radical Transparency’s a double edged sword. A noble experiment that should end on actual Nasdaq.
Now says as soon as possible. At least they are learning. Can their lawyers get the Sec to file effectiveness before the bell? Only if they already had it drafted. Prob Nasdaq tomorrow. Manyana again. Will happen soon.
