DTC's damage.
We need to recoup from it.

Thanks for the constructive criticism.
If you ever really want to talk about the stock (or anything else) actually call me.
What we have here are disgruntled ex-employees, people who want to drive down the price of the stock for their own purposes, haters and representatives of other companies trying to kill off Cord Blood. So it's a little hard to be worried about being "Emily Post" with this crowd.
But you are a real shareholder and would look forward to the conversation.

Actually, I think we have a convention of disgruntled former employees, representatives from competitive companies eager to throttle dynamic CBAI and some who love to see the stock dive so they can buy more. How many seekers of truth are actually here?

Nope.
Actually, it is to field all questions with some relevance to matters at hand...soft or hard.
No, it will not "kill" this company.
I absolutely believe in what they are doing, the business model, the people. All companies face challenging periods.
I answer numerous questions daily. Some of them jumped from the standard e-mail to the company or to me to this board. I don't mind answering anywhere someone has a question.
I don't have much use for boards (although this one seems to attract intelligence) because posting anonymously against a company is a vicious thing to do and I'm convinced I'm talking to some disgruntled ex-employees, some employees of competitors who would like to see CBAI die, and some who just want the stock to dive so they can buy more. Strange world.

The Amended Q was updated (without SEC prompt) to change some footnotes related to our pre share totals for warrants and options. Basically now you have to list all totals post acquisition totals (100 to 1) even though they happened previous to the split. Suffice it to say that it is like the
shares pre split never existed. Also, there is information amended because of answers we have provided in the normal course of discussions with the DTC.
I truly believe good things would have happened but for three letters: DTC.
Well, if you sue them, they will shut down everything. And that would be suicidal.
Congress has so many other issues on its platter these days.
They are for sure overworked, way too busy, and they don't have to report in any way to the public.
I think there is an element (this is me talking, not one of my clients, not CBAI) that for a lot of reasons would like to see all "Penny" stocks go away.
Paul
Thanks for clearing up SH. I was scratching my head.
The company had no indication it was going to be chilled, and as such, focused all of its efforts on working with the DTC to attempt to reverse the chill as soon as it learned of this event. The company believed this would be a straight forward process and timeline to reverse the chill since numerous materials were presented to the DTC to that end. The company did disclose in its 10K filing of March 31, 2011, the chill and the potential impact on its business; including damage provisions negotiated with certain investors as late at February 8th, once it appeared this was not going to be a timely reversal. One of the components highlighted in the 10K was the lack of reasoning given by the DTC to "chill" the company's stock and the steps necessary to remedy the situation. The company believed that a message of uncertainty or vagueness prior to that point would only invite more speculation as to the events surrounding such. The company has provided additional updates in all of its filings subsequent to the 10K and will continue to do so until there is a conclusion.
As to second question, I consider it specious. I have dealt with hundreds of CEOs in hundreds of sectors all over the world for many years and I have yet to run into one who did not say his (her) stock was a buy.

In the Nov. 29, 1996 edition of the Saddleback Valley News, owned and published by the Orange County Register, our (E & E Communications) DBA appears as a Public Notice along with a number of other public companies.

Richrad: TD Ameritrade is its own company and it makes its own decisions. Neither we nor any other public company can actually control which brokers will trade us and which won't. We are working to get the DTC "chill" lifted with assumption that that is the heart of the problem.
We have nothing new to report on LOI's. We have stated that the "chill" has increased the cost of money to us, and acquisitions must be weighed very carefully in that light.

True, I'm not CBAI's attorney and not directly involved in the "chill." I'll tell you what I know and I have.
Since we have helped hundreds of companies since 1997 in numerous transactions worldwide, it would not be possible to remember the details of them all. Sorry to disappoint you.

I'm not directly involved.
DTC's style is to ask for legal opinions, paper and more paper.
But at least there is that "dialogue."
I'm don't know but I've got to be optimistic.

A) Truly, who cares.
B) But at the time, they were being purchased by "Big Dogs," and I'd be stunned if they were not a corporation, and we were retained by the investment bankers to help with the PR.
C) My memory is that the Big Dogs purchase eventually fell though and that some of the Crazy Shirts people went forward with the company.
D) But I'm not going to spend the time researching it because I don't see the relevance.
E) I do still see a "Crazy Shirts" in Laguna Beach, although it's not my style.

I agree with you. The absolute power of the DTC and the havoc it has caused smaller companies needs to come under scrutiny. The problem is: It's not a front-line issue. Smaller companies don't have the powerful lobbying to make Congress take notice. It's a darn shame, but it is the smaller companies that are someday going to jump-start this economy, to provide the jobs necessary for us to end this "depression."

Say, I'm an investor to. I'd like to see this turn around also.
I spent eight weeks listening to and answering shareholders who didn't have their stock returned to them by the DTC following the reverse. Hundreds and hundreds of calls and e-mails.
Just my opinion, but stock opened at $0.20 following the reverse and was soon $0.50 intra-day. Then the word started to spread that shareholders with on-line brokerages and discount brokerages could not trade. I think CBAI lost an enormous amount of credibility THROUGH ABSOLUTELY NO FAULT OF ITS OWN.
I believe it is going to take time and hard work to restore that credibility. But I believe.

That's a heck of a sentence you put together there. Hard to digest. If you are talking about Iron Ridge, the answer is still the same. I even provided (did your homework) the contact information from the filing for you. I've been called lots (and lots) of things but never a "subcontractor." Hmm. Got to think on that one.

First of all, we pay Investors Hub quite a bit for the pleasure of posting. Secondly, I'm not going to say anything here that I would not say if you e-mailed me or phoned me.
I'm as composed and happy as ever. Holiday weekend. Beautiful weather here.
I'm a long-term, longtime holder in the stock. I believe they absolutely are in the right sector in that stem cells are going to prove to be the answer against many of the intractable diseases we now suffer from, with a sound business model, especially with international outreach, with a young, aggressive smart management team.
