ORHub in Partnership with Hoag Orthopedic Institute Expands its Digital Surgical Platform into New Indications
NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., April 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- ORHub, Inc.(OTC:ORHB) (the "Company"), a HIPAA compliant, physician-driven digital software company focused on improving profitability and the cost effectiveness of hospitals through real-time smart data and analytics, today announces that ORHub, in partnership with Hoag Orthopedic Institute ("HOI"), has expanded its surgical resource management ("SRM") software application from spinal surgeries into additional indications for hips and knees, cardiovascular and neurological procedures.
?
"We are pleased to expand our solutions across new indications for HOI under Microsoft's Azure platform, procured for their best-in-class compliance with data security protocol and HIPAA. We believe this is a testament to the power of our real-time smart analytics captured at the point of care in delivering valuable clinical decisions," said Colt Melby, Chief Executive Officer of ORHub. "We have captured compliant data from over 4,000 surgical procedures to date. Our results indicate that the granularity of our data provides insights into areas including surgical procedural measures, surgical device usage and other key performance analytics that were previously unobtainable or convoluted. We are committed to changing the face of surgical healthcare and look forward to our continued partnership with HOI to drive hospital and surgical efficiencies across various indications."
"The move from manual to automated surgical and hospital processes relies on the veracity of the data. Consistently, ORHub has provided trusted data with a robust platform that enables our team to evaluate our hospital and physician performance on a case to case basis across various indications," stated Dr. Alan Beyer, Executive Medical Director, Board Member and Chairman of the Finance Committee of Hoag Orthopedic Institute. "As a center of excellence, having real-time smart analytics is a powerful tool to drive clinical decision making, improve inventory management and create better efficiencies to provide the highest quality of patient care."

About ORHub, Inc.
ORHub is an advanced surgical software provider focused on real-time surgical data analytics. The Company's suite of products serves the needs of the health care industry, hospital, patient, government and the medical device vendor. ORHub provides a cloud-based software solution that captures information before, during and after surgery, filling a void in the current surgical information infrastructure and providing the first process to capture and measure the surgical process -- evolving Big Data into Intelligent Digital Data. ORHub's software applications allow hospitals and medical device vendors to utilize any web- enabled device to create an anatomical graphic depiction of exactly what occurs during surgery. The application automatically translates the resulting schematic into an intelligent, electronic operative report that links every detail of surgery, including implant location, surgical techniques, product usage, and all clinical parameters to create a dynamically new source of comparative information.
As a result, hospitals and surgeons can make real-time, data driven decisions to improve business profitability and the quality of patient care. This innovative technology results in hospitals under- standing costs and identifying areas of cost reductions, as well as results in increased accountability, automatic creation of comprehensive anatomic implant registries, real-time analytics, improved efficiencies, and compliance with existing government regulations. ORHub has offices in Phoenix, Arizona; Newport Beach, California; Bellevue, Washington; and Jacksonville, Florida.

I think what you mentioned earlier makes sense. Unmet expectations and relatively little news. I think an investor update or a shareholder letter would be helpful.
I think the downward trend is connected to the warrant exercises last year. There were $3.8 worth of 35 cent warrants exercised. That comes out to 10.8 million shares reflecting substantial profit at current market prices.
I think the current market price is a great buying opportunity. SO... I don't think there's anything wrong with the company... but I think people are realizing part of their investment gains.
I think the next quarterly report will be very interesting and should be substantial in letting us know how our marketing and product is being received and used by the market.
By my calculations we should see the Q3 10Q in the middle of May... 45 days after the close of the 3rd Quarter.
I think any positive news will send the stock trading up. Otherwise, warrant shareholders are still sitting on a 100% profit with their shares. How long will this trend continue? Hard to say.
You know what they say, don't look a gift horse in the mouth. ;)
Wow... ORHB not off to a good start today. 34k shares traded at a low of .76.
I wonder if someone's account had a margin call or something.
Plus there was actually a few trades today. Plus a fairly serious sized bid in the .20's.
I don't think many pay much attention to the stock or its price.. so there are not many shares available.
My thought is that if a turnaround happens... 10K was released last month... not too exciting... but a few interesting points.
Available here: https://www.gcfb.com/investors/financials/
Agreed.
1. I guess I've not figured out the IBox picture thing yet. I'll work on this.
2. I'm not super hot on this company... though I did buy some shares. I figure if they do anything with an equity raise it will be at higher prices.
3. They have a new CEO (since March of 2017) and he's turned around Popeye's Louisiana Chicken. AND all his options are over a buck.
4. The company is pretty tightly held. I don't remember the exact numbers... 14 million shares 80-85% held by insiders.
Thanks for the comments.
A few thoughts...
10K recorded some pretty serious loses. Not only has SPYR added some world-class talent over the last year, they have apparently been hiring world-class contract programmers to produce the upcoming software releases.
Evidence of this. Nearly 16 Million dollars in losses in Fiscal 2017. Surprising statement: "The Company expects to incur losses in the near future until profitability is achieved."
Highlights from 10K (and recent press releases):
1. "This new tapper game is currently in the soft launch stage of development and is scheduled to be released during second quarter 2018."
The Press Release of March 22, 2018 revealed the name and content of the upcoming tapper game. (see https://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=77010655)
2. "The Company intends to ... conduct strategic business development, marketing analysis, due diligence investigations into possible acquisitions, and software development costs and implementation of our business plans generally."
I take this to mean that the company is not now what it hopes and expects to become. I've posted before, it doesn't make any sense for the company to remain as it is. To become commercially viable, it has to grow and create revenue. The outlays mentioned above indicate their efforts to grow revenue from within. Bold sentence indicates they are considering and looking for possible acquisition targets.
A couple months ago, they've increased the number of Authorized Shares... AND made changes to the Corporation By-Laws. Why would they do that? No doubt to facilitate the whole acquisition.
I also noticed that the 10K was an audited financial statement. That paired with the change in Certified Public Accountants, may well suggest that we will be able to move from Pink to the PinkQB. Every step up is good.
3. I especially liked the closing line in the opening summary: "The Company may also decide to diversify, through acquisition or otherwise, in other unrelated business areas if opportunities present themselves."
I might be all wet here, but I think the ability to accept various crypto-currencies and may well have a connection to the recent consulting agreement with Stephen A. Crystal. This guy is big time into casinos and gambling... and has even written papers on the future of betting on video game competitions. , may well provide a clue
SPYR Games Signs Consulting Agreement with Gaming and Esports Investor and Advisor, Stephen A. Crystal, Esq. ( https://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&article=76932318 ).
We shall see. I think all this is out there a bit, but now that the 10K is out of the way... we can look forward to some 2Q game-release announcements, and who knows what else.
Best regards!
Latest financing reported today. From the date listed, my guess is they used the paperwork from an earlier financing for the current debenture.
$700k plus for just over a million shares sounds like a pretty good deal for a stock trading around $3.
If you don't, I'm fairly confident you'll regret it... or regret not owning more.
Once we're uplisted to the TSX, I think you'll see a substantial increase in volume and share price.
Will it be to week????... There's the $50,000 question.
We've been hearing hype that it's just around the corner for months.
I think we're nearing the day... and would not be surprised if it is this week.
If nothing else keep some ammo dry and be ready to pounce once the announcement happens.
The 8-k that preceded the proxy announcement referenced the changes we're being made because of the uplisting application.
I-BOX UPDATED. Not a big deal but I figured or how to add pictures and screen shots.
Also, if you've not watched the interview of our CEO Thompson you should. I sounds like the whole crypto-currency interface is an interim step in their future plans they have for the company.
Pretty hefty volume for sure.
Here's a record of the trades:
https://ih.advfn.com/stock-market/USOTC/holloman-energy-corp-pc-HENC/trades
The last two trades are most intriguing. I would guess pre-arranged, but who knows? Here's a picture of where we were at 45 minutes before the close:
Lately, I've been seeing a lot of Granite City Facebook ads. I'm guessing these are targeted ads that show up on people's Facebook feeds that have liked Granite City or liked some metric determined by GC.
Here are a couple samples:
Screenshot of GCFB Facebook ad
In the month of MARCH celebrating St. Patrick's Day... Their monthly tap was BURNING BARN IRISH RED
and then on the 15th
RAISING LADDERS IRISH WHISKEY RED ALE
and on Saturday March 17 10% of sales will go to Local Fire Departments.
Pretty cool. More to post, but have to run.
Randy
Not sure I mentioned below... but part of my interest in Granite City Food and Brewery is that I like the restaurant and would like to see the company succeed (as well as make a return on my investment by it's success).
Anyway, I've been following their marketing strategy and promotions and over the last year and am intrigued. It seems our new CEO Lynch is engaging new and regular customers in some pretty practical ways.
One of their customer retention programs is their Mug Club Membership. It entitles their customers to accrue points and receive rewards for purchases. They are also informed of current and upcoming promotions.
EXAMPLE: During the month of February they had a $5.00 pitcher special and a certain apps for $5.00 a piece on Monday through Wednesday.
I went on a Tuesday and was given a coupon (by the manager) to return on Thursday through Saturday for another promotional special... two beers and two entrees for $25. Pretty good deal.
I appreciated the effort to continue and encourage return visits.
Well... that wasn't as fun as I expected.
147K bid was just taken out.
Guess we will see if any other large bids or buys show up.
Randy
Level 2 Snapshot for those following SPYR. The stock is currently bidding 147K at .3985 and offering 62.5K at .40.
Not sure what it means (and I suppose it could be posturing)... but my guess is that we will be heading for higher ground.
An interesting development...
Current Level 2
They didn't call it bankruptcy... But that's pretty well what it means.
Sorry to hear this.
Interesting trades. About 10k shares of buying.
When buyers show up like this, my first thought is... Is our TSX listing happening?
Looked, but didn't see it yet.
Time will tell.
Nothing directly... except that we're waiting for FTMR to be listed on the TSX.
I was taking with a friend and he thought the newly listed companies would be invited on the first day they start trading... and thus would need advanced notice of the listing.
HOWEVER, from what I can tell, companies are added to the RECENTLY LISTED column and then at some later point (2 to 3 weeks) are invited to ceremonially open the exchange.
That's all. :)
This is what we're waiting for. I went on Youtube.com and entered "new listing Toronto Stock Exchange."
BRISTOL GATE ETF started trading on the TSX on February 19, 2018 and were invited to ceremonially open the Toronto Stock exchange 10 days later... on February 28, 2018.
Yes sir.. they thought I'd be finished by the end of October.
Not that has been announced.
Just checked OTCMarkets.com and December 31 financials are listed... but it says they're unaudited.
Sometimes it's hard to be patient and maintain one's optimism, but this company seems to have a lot of things in its favor. Here's a list that I've just came up with:
1. We are fully reporting and listed on the OTC Markets QB Market. There are more elite markets, but this alone gives fully audited and disclosed finances. From what I can tell all our I's are dotted and our "t's" crossed.
2. The progress over the last year is incredible.
Seemingly oil rich (and in one case gold and silver rich) properties have been brought into the company. Check these out on company website (http://www.fortemresources.com/resources/oil-and-gas/) and http://www.fortemresources.com/resources/mining/city-of-gold/ )... most of these not prospective properties... but properties that have been drilled and found oil and gas. AND did I mention the size of some of these properties were in the hundreds of thousands of acres and square miles?
1) Fortem Resources Inc. Acquires 20 Sections (12,960 Acres) of Oil and Gas Leases in Northern Alberta Press Release | 04/11/2017
2) Fortem Resources Inc. Acquires 165,000 Acres of Oil and Gas Leases in the Moenkopi Formation, Utah Press Release | 04/17/2017
3) Fortem Resources Inc. Acquires Interest in 101,888 Acres of Oil and Gas Leases in the Mancos Formation, Utah Press Release | 04/21/2017
4) Fortem Resources Acquires City of Gold, LLC and Indirect Right to Acquire Interest in Myanmar Mining Project Press Release | 05/23/2017
5) Fortem Resources Announces Amendments to Extend Payment Obligations Under Utah Property Purchase Agreements Press Release | 08/23/2017
6) Fortem Resources Inc. Announces Acquisition of Additional Utah Oil and Gas Leases Press Release | 08/24/2017
7) Fortem Resources Inc. Announces Mancos Shale PlayPress Release | 08/28/2017
3. We learn mid-stream last year we learn that most these properties had some connection to a guy named Marc Bruner:
Fortem Resources Inc. Announces Appointment of New President, Chief Executive Officer and Director Press Release | 07/19/2017
1) who happens to be a billionaire
2) who has on multiple occasions brought newly discovered and/or unconventional oil and gas properties into public companies and sold said companies for literally BILLIONS of dollars (with share prices of $80-$90-$100 per share.
4. We've signed a financing agreement with a TSX member firm.
Fortem Resources Engages Mackie Research as Exclusive Agent for Private Placement Financing of Up to US$4.5M Press Release | 09/13/2017
5. We've raised funds at progressively higher prices... initially from $.25 to $.50, then $.70 and more recently at $2.00 per share.
6. More recently, as we surmise we are in the process of seeking to be listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).
a. We've amended our Articles of Incorporation (8-K disclosed changes were made for this purpose)
b. We've had to amend a couple of our 10Q Reports regarding the nature and value of our acquisitions (listed above) (which I'm pretty sure was a very positive for those who exchanged the properties for shares as I think made the exchange non-taxable event.
And Lastly 7. Let's just think about this? Put the puzzle pieces together...
a. Why would these folks entrust and exchange their viable and valuable gas and oil properties for shares of a company like FTMR?
b. Why would a man like Carl Bruner join the company as our CEO?
From my vantage point... and clearly I'm writing as someone who has made a significant investment in FORTEM RESOURCES... I think the only logical explanation of all this is that they intend to turn this public entity into a monster. If any one of these properties are proven and start producing substantial revenue we have a $20 per share stock... if 2 or 3 or all of them do, the sky is the limit.
The reported float of the FTMR is 4.5 million shares... and then there is another 4.5 million shares listed as DTC (held digitally) The percentage of shares held by insiders and former property owners is pretty much the balance.
FWIW, some private placements will reach the end of their one year hold during calendar 2018, but from my vantage point no matter how high this stock trades in 2018, things will just be getting started.
AND from a wariness point of view... from what I can see, the only way insiders and original property owners are going gain liquidity and be able to realize a profit, will be if and when this company matures and is sold to big oil (just like Bruner did to his previous public companies). No investment is scam proof... but it seems to me that we are putting our investment dollars into some pretty good hands.
I believe everyone... investors, management, and all those with established interests in the company are earnestly waiting for the TSX listing to take place.
It's not the last link in the chain but it is a major one.
I would add that any of my friends that are watching and waiting (and reading this)... if that 5000 share offer shows up at $2.75 again, I would recommend buying it or as much of it as you can.

Just past noon and we've traded over 16,000 shares... all between $3.12 and $3.17.

What concerns me about GCFB?
1. The obvious is will they survive and be about to come or from their deny burden.
2. How much debt do they have?
I'll post a more definitive list but I know they have a $40 million line of credit that is fully used and in default.
3. ???
What peeks my interests about GCFB this point in their history?
1 New CEO Lynch since March of 2017. He was the former CEO of Popeye's Chicken... and responsible for their turn around. It's been about a year and we should be finding out whether his initiatives are gaining traction.
2. Company is majority owned by venture capital firm (don't have the name handy, but will post later.). I think they have a 70-75% interest.
3. As a Granite City fan, I've been intrigued even impressed with initiatives and improvements in marketing.
4.
I've been a Granite City Food and Brewery fan for the last 10-15 years. Just recently... in the last 2-3 months I've discovered that they're a public company.
I'm thinking if nothing else I'd try to become a Moderator and try to update the Ibox and at least bring make information more available.
Anyone in IHUB still tracking or watching GCFB?
Remarkable!! I've entered good health most of my life, but my wife had seemed to have one thing after another. We're going to look further into this.
I think it'd be interesting to survey the trades over the last few months and see what percentage of SPYR's trades take place in the last hour or two of the trading day.
Seems that's often when things heat up. :)

"The Company is currently exploring opportunities for additional acquisitions in these and other verticals, including mobile application and game development, in order to expand its holdings, to drive and increase revenue and to generate profits and build value for shareholders."
Thanks Dazetrader!
I had previously just pasted the news headlines from OTCMarkets.com... however... I didn't notice that October 25, 2017 was their most recent news.
At any rate, I added a direct link to the SPYR.com website as well as pasted the press releases since October 25.
Thanks for the suggestion and all the best.

10 Minute Interview with SPYR'S President and CEO James Thompson CEOLIVE.TV
That posed an interesting question. How does the TSX compared to the other exchanges in the world?
Google to the rescue. Found this article:
https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/markets/2012/12/20/world-stock-exchanges/1782267/
1. New York Stock Exchange Country: U.S.
2. NASDAQ Country: US
3. London Stock Exchange Country: UK .
4. Hong Kong Exchange Country: China
5. Shanghai Stock Exchange Country: China
6. Tokyo Stock Exchange Country: Japan
7. Toronto Stock Exchange Country: Canada
The foundation for the Toronto Stock Exchange began in 1852 when a group of businessmen from Toronto met with the intention of forming an "Association of Brokers." By 1861, the exchange was founded, with membership costing $5. The exchange has come a long way since then -- there were 3,974 companies trading on the exchange as of November, more than any exchange in the Americas and second only to BSE India's 5,180. The exchange grew by gobbling up other exchanges based in Canada. The Toronto Stock Exchange merged with the Canadian Venture Exchange, consisting of the Vancouver and Alberta Stock Exchanges, in 2001 to create the TSX Group. Then in 2007, the Montreal Exchange and TSX Group merged to form today's TMX Group. The Toronto Stock Exchange also tried to merge with the London Stock Exchange in 2011, but dropped plans after it became evident that shareholders of TMX Group would not approve. Listings include Bank of Montreal and Air Canada.

IBOX UPDATED...
I figured there might as well be accurate information available.
If the Company continues to execute is its business plan we will probably see some additional traffic.
If you see any typos, inaccuracies or have suggestions, I'd love to hear them.
Randy
P.S. I haven't figured out how to paste in pictures. Grr. When I do it will look better. ;)
