Rico a sales pro???

Gee, where does it say that in his resume?

Rico the stock promoter, con artist, CEO wannabe......

Those are all distinct possibilities but sales pro?

The only thing Rico is good at is diversifying shareholders assets into his pocket.

ATTENTION:

Yes, I think we get the message loud and clear.

Let's take a look at where Labor SMART is sitting at right now:

-2011: $165,000 revenues (audited)

-2012: $7,100,000 revenues (audited)

-2013: $16,100,000 revenues (audited)

- YTD Revenue for the 11 months increased 52% to $22.5 million.

-2014: $25,000,000 revenues (PROJECTED) with the company showing $4 million in A/R, $1 million cash (PROJECTED) and positive EBITDA

-Growth from 0 to 30 branches in just three years

-Increased gross profit margins from 15% to 25% over the last 12 months

- Same branch revenue up 12.5% year-over-year

- Over 1400 customers

- EBITDA of $121,577

- Adjusted EBITDA of $344,731

Current outstanding shares approximately 75 million.

Please....

This stock did one trade at .80 cents on a big run almost two years ago!

The IRS issue was from over a year ago and has long been resolved!

Toxic financing is the only alternative for OTC companies n today's market. You will never see an OTC company raising significant capital any other way.

If we do not like it then we should not be investing in the OTC market.

Hahahaha..... That's great!!!

Take your money and run.

There is no doubt that you will be eating those words in a matter of weeks.

I just gave 3 excellent examples from previous press releases.

Besides that, Robert Rico has lied on his bio, lied about receiving a Key to the City of Miami for philanthropic work, lied about working with Pininfarina, the list goes on and on.

Listen, if it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck and flys like a duck then it's a freakin duck.

Keep that in mind when looking at what you think is the big picture as opposed to the reality of this company.

Remember, no one ever went broke taking a profit. EVERYONE should consider themselves one of the very lucky few to ever invest in a Rico deal and walk away with a profit.

I'm NOT a basher. I am just revealing the truth.

I'm sorry but that is not actually correct. A quick review of my previous posts will show where I posted verifiable data that shows that an 8K is suppose to be filed at the time of the press release.

Once a company actually starts implementing a stock buy back program they have to detail the purchases within their 10Q & 10K filings.

The only reason Robert Rico did not file an 8K is to fly under the radar screen. That's how he operates.

As far as being accurate with his actions....

He put out a PR announcing $100,000 is sales last November 2013 and nothing showed up on their financial statements.

He put out a press release at the beginning of this year about the launch of their Organic Apple Juice. It never happened.

In July, he put out a press release announcing in excess of $50,000 in sales for the month of June and it never made its way to their June 30th financial statement

He puts out this Authorized Stock Buy Back Program and then indemnifies the company by stating they are not obligated to purchase any shares in the program.

Are we seeing what I'm talking about?

In order to be better informed, I would suggest that everyone read the above sticky why PLKD did not file an 8K on their stock buy back program.

I think everyone will get a clearer picture of how Robert Rico operates.

PLEASE!!!! Let's try and keep comments legitimate!

There isn't an institutional investor in the world that is allowed to buy a sub-penny stock in the open market.

And... even if they could, it would never be based on rumors it would be based on the strength of a company's balance sheet and prospects with orders on hand.

A trade at .00049 is just a back fill for someone with an order in at .0005

No need to start making things up!

WRONG CPW13154

The above scenerio has ZERO comparability to Labor SMART for the following reasons:

Besides having record revenues they also have the following.....

LTNC has improving gross profit margins (15% to 25%)

LTNC's losses are from non-cash write-offs not actual monetary losses

LTNC has positive EBITDA of $350,000

LTNC has increasing accounts receivables (now at $4 million)

LTNC has $3 million plus in assets

You see, "failing" companies do not show improvements in the balance sheets quarter after quarter the way LTNC has been able to demonstrate over the last 3 years.

[color=red]<<<<<<<<<<WRONG WRONG CPW13154 WRONG WRONG>>>>>>>>>>>

We all know that the reason that this stock is down is because of the conversions from the retirement of convertible notes.

This is proven with the lack of disgruntled shareholders we see complaining. Seemingly there are a lot of non-shareholders complaining but no actual shareholders who are long or have sold their stock at a loss complaining.

I see this as a very good sign.

You had me up until you said real management!

Real CEO's DO NOT lie on their resume.

Real CEO's DO NOT lie about companies that they have worked for.

Real CEO's DO NOT lie about receiving a key to a city for philanthropic work.

Real CEO's DO NOT normally have CEO positions when EVERY SINGLE company they have been in control of has failed.

And, when every single company that they have ever worked for fails....

CEO's do not normally live extravagant lifestyles.

Real CEO's DO NOT put out fraudulent press releases about PLKD sales that never existed.

Real CEO's do not pay themselves and their Officers $450,000 a year salaries before the company generates a single penny in sales.

A real CEO would NEVER allow for comments on FaceBook stating "stay tuned for a multi multi million deal on Dec. 24th" without putting it in a press release first.

A real CEO would never allow misleading information to go on a public site i.e., Ihub's information box which is misleading by saying now available in 7-11's (it's only 3 stores) and his picture with a caption Robert Rico receiving the key to the city for his philanthropic work.

A leopard never changes its spots and we are fools if we think Robert Rico has changed the way he really makes money.... At the expense of unsuspecting shareholders.

Hahahaha.....

Try as we might we cannot deny the end result which is this company is going to finish up close if not over $9 million for 2014 with $25 million versus $16.1 million in revenues for last year.

What's even better is the fact that this company know has positive EBITDA and once they are done with interests expenses from these notes (that get smaller and smaller by the day) they will actually be showing net income.

Any investor with just a little bit of business knowledge can look back the full 3 years of their operations and see the consistency in their abilities to do what they say they are going to do.

No need for false alarms. They will not work. This company has too much of an operating history for anyone to fall for the "chicken Little" tactics.

NEVER HAPPENED!!!!

PLEASE SHOW US WHERE THIS CEO HAS LIED ABOUT ANYTHING!!!

POSSIBLY, YOU MAY WANT TO REVIEW ALL SEC FILINGS AND PRESS RELEASES FIRST!!!

COME ON..... SHOW US SINCE WE SEEM TO KNOW SO MUCH!

NO I THINK I'LL BE THE ONE TO FINISH!!!

YOU ARE WRONG MONEYMADE!!!

Possibly we may want to go to school and learn the difference between shares outstanding and shares authorized because a company's share structure does not include their shares authorized!

SCAM??? SERIOUSLY????

Let me guess... When the price of a stock goes down it must be a scam????

What kind of due diligence goes into a theory like that?

Please give us the analysis that shows that this company with its 3 years of audited operations and 30 branches in over a dozen states is a scam.

Feel free to dissect the information below so this "scam" theory can be proven:

2011: $165,000 revenues (audited)

-2012: $7,100,000 revenues (audited)

-2013: $16,100,000 revenues (audited)

- YTD Revenue for the 11 months increased 52% to $22.5 million.

-2014: $25,000,000 revenues (PROJECTED) with the company showing $4 million in A/R, $1 million cash (PROJECTED) and positive EBITDA

-Growth from 0 to 30 branches in just three years

-Increased gross profit margins from 15% to 25% over the last 12 months

- Same branch revenue up 12.5% year-over-year

- Over 1400 customers

- EBITDA of $121,577

- Adjusted EBITDA of $344,731

Current outstanding shares approximately 60 million.

Is that a fact?

Why haven't they announced these new stores being added and why aren't they on PLKD's store locator?

I mean I'm still waiting on the additional 27 7-11's from their Sept. press release.

WHERE ARE THEY???

The CEO pays himself $175,000 a year and together with his VP and COO they collectively pay themselves $450,000 plus expenses.

Not bad for a company that as of June 30, 2014 had zero sales.

But now that they are in 3 7-11's and see fit to plaster it everywhere (as though they are all over the place) I guess a raise is in order!

We gotta keep that South Beach image alive!

Yes, as parents we all know how much we love for our toddlers to have stickers to put on our furniture.

GREAT IDEA.... NOT!

The only thing that stands out to me is that it costs twice as much for PLKD half sized water bottles than for its better recognized competitors!

I guess we can dream but one Presidente Supermarket and 3 7-11's does not equal a successful operation!

Possibly we can get some help in understanding the difference between PLKD's water showing up in 3 franchised stores and everything we have been seeing about "7-11 giving their stamp of approval".

I'd also like some clarity on how 3 stores is going to lead to national distribution through 7-11.

I'm sorry but I never extrapolated this 4 million a day scenerio so I don't know how to answer the question.

Trust me, if there were that big of an increase we would have seen an 8K filed disclosing that big of an increase in the shares outstanding.

<<<<<<<<<<WRONG WRONG CPW13154 WRONG WRONG>>>>>>>>>>

With record revenues, assets, accounts receivables, positive EBITDA why would this company need to look at closing branches???

Take a look at what they've done this year:

2011: $165,000 revenues (audited)

-2012: $7,100,000 revenues (audited)

-2013: $16,100,000 revenues (audited)

- YTD Revenue for the 11 months increased 52% to $22.5 million.

-2014: $25,000,000 revenues (PROJECTED) with the company showing $4 million in A/R, $1 million cash (PROJECTED) and positive EBITDA

-Growth from 0 to 30 branches in just three years

-Increased gross profit margins from 15% to 25% over the last 12 months

- Same branch revenue up 12.5% year-over-year

- Over 1400 customers

- EBITDA of $121,577

- Adjusted EBITDA of $344,731

Current outstanding shares approximately 60 million.

It's a guess but I would say about 65 million shares.

Ridiculous to see this stock so cheap!

<<<<<<<<<<WRONG WRONG CPW13154 WRONG WRONG>>>>>>>>>>

WHO ARE WE KIDDING???

Just because the company got a contract with a stadium DOESN'T make the company. It's not like they put out a press release specifically about it.

As for the drop in revenues....

I have answered this question at least 6 times. If we chose to ignore the answer we should at least STOP pretending like we don't already know the truth.

As a matter of fact I looked back to last year and what do you know? The same B.S. questions with absolute answers about why Labor SMARTS numbers trail off towards the end of the year.

This is going to happen every year so get use to it!

The fact is they are up $6.4 million on the year so no matter how we try to spin this anyone with an ounce of business acumen will judge this company on the full year and not a month to month comparison going into their slowest quarter of the year.

How STUPID do we think everyone looking at this situation is?

Come on, it's not like we don't know Robert Rico well enough to know that he is just pulling one of his magic acts in order to have some Christmas money.

Gee... I wonder where he's spending New Years with all this new found wealth???

I mean we all know he spends it as fast as he scams it!

WRONG saddam WRONG!!!!

In order to short 143 million shares of PLKD you would have to put up $357 Million Dollars in a margin account!

See anyone with that kind of dough looking to naked short this deal?

Please!

A better understanding of Trade + 3 will explain the difference between the deliver of shares and a naked short.

Of course "everyone" is laughing.....

Look at how silly these numbers are for a company trading under a penny:

2011: $165,000 revenues (audited)

-2012: $7,100,000 revenues (audited)

-2013: $16,100,000 revenues (audited)

- YTD Revenue for the 11 months increased 52% to $22.5 million.

-2014: $25,000,000 revenues (PROJECTED) with the company showing $4 million in A/R, $1 million cash (PROJECTED) and positive EBITDA

-Growth from 0 to 30 branches in just three years

-Increased gross profit margins from 15% to 25% over the last 12 months

- Same branch revenue up 12.5% year-over-year

- Over 1400 customers

- EBITDA of $121,577

- Adjusted EBITDA of $344,731

Current outstanding shares approximately 60 million.

<<<<<<<<<<WRONG WRONG CPW13154 WRONG WRONG>>>>>>>>>>

That's what aggressive companies do! DUHHHH!!!!!

They grow their business and as their business grows so do their revenues!

Why are we trying to be told that because this company went from 2 to 30 branches and they're revenues grew from $165,000 to almost $25 million ths company is a failure?

Really?????

Hahahahha.......

Who judges a company's success on a month by month basis when they company is up OVER 50% in revenues for the year????

Obviously someone who is desperate to try and imply that their numbers are down!

Another funny one!!!!!



Of course! Why deal with the facts if they don't fit our negative agenda?

It's not like we couldn't Google search and find out that the labor industry is cyclical and their slowest quarter of the year is in the 4th quarter! DUH!!!

Please show me when anyone was talking about how great Christmas time is for this business. Are we once again resorting to making things up because I never saw such a post!!!

REAL CREDIBILITY HERE!!!

<<<<<<<<<<WRONG WRONG CPW13154 WRONG WRONG>>>>>>>>>>

We identify every year how this is a cyclical industry with their slowest quarter in their 4th quarter. A slow down is expected.

How convenient that we leave out that so far this year they've done $22.5 million as opposed to $16.1 million for all of last year.

But let's just focus on the last two months so that we can prove how the sky is falling!

Gee? Why would we purposely leave something like that out?????

CREDIBLE.... VERY CREDIBLE!!!

<<<<<<<<<<WRONG WRONG CPW13154 WRONG WRONG>>>>>>>>>>

The share structure of a public company is the shares outstanding and the float.

Currently there are only 60 million shares outstanding!

That's 60 million with an (m)

<<<<<<<<<<WRONG WRONG CPW13154 WRONG WRONG >>>>>>>>>>

LMFAO!!!

Yes, these are really horrible numbers!!!!

2011: $165,000 revenues (audited)

-2012: $7,100,000 revenues (audited)

-2013: $16,100,000 revenues (audited)

- YTD Revenue for the 11 months increased 52% to $22.5 million.

-2014: $25,000,000 revenues (PROJECTED) with the company showing $4 million in A/R, $1 million cash (PROJECTED) and positive EBITDA

-Growth from 0 to 30 branches in just three years

-Increased gross profit margins from 15% to 25% over the last 12 months

- Same branch revenue up 12.5% year-over-year

- Over 1400 customers

- EBITDA of $121,577

- Adjusted EBITDA of $344,731

Current outstanding shares approximately 60 million.

We will never see this company spend a penny to buy back any shares.

The first $450,000 goes to the Officers of this company with their rich employment agreements.

Forget about profits, where are the going to come up with money for cost of goods?

Not from the sale of water out of three 7-11's!

APPROXIMATELY 60 MILLION SHARES OUTSTANDING ON THIS COMPANY CURRENTLY!

A far cry from the fictitious billion share number being dumped we keep seeing!

Obviously some don't know the difference between shares outstanding and shares authorized?

Again, I ask.......

Just because a stock goes down does not make it a scam.

Please show us the evidence that would warrant anyone calling this company a scam.

Or...

Are we just making things up?????

I mean I don't see too many company with numbers like these being called a scam. Especially, since their numbers are audited:

-2011: $165,000 revenues (audited)

-2012: $7,100,000 revenues (audited)

-2013: $16,100,000 revenues (audited)

- YTD Revenue for the 11 months increased 52% to $22.5 million.

-2014: $25,000,000 revenues (PROJECTED) with the company showing $4 million in A/R, $1 million cash (PROJECTED) and positive EBITDA

-Growth from 0 to 30 branches in just three years

-Increased gross profit margins from 15% to 25% over the last 12 months

- Same branch revenue up 12.5% year-over-year

- Over 1400 customers

- EBITDA of $121,577

- Adjusted EBITDA of $344,731

Current outstanding shares approximately 60 million.

Why is it that every time I ask for a statement to be backed up with some sort of proof I'm ignored???

Hmmm.....

One billion to dump when the company only actually has 60 million shares outstanding is an excellent example.

Credibility is everything!

Something that happened last year and plays no relevance to the business at hand today!!!!

Scare tactics don't work because no one cares about something that occurred so long ago.

Let's find better material, this subject has been used and abused and has ZERO impact on the company going forward!

WHEN WE LEARN HOW TO ACTUALLY READ A FINANCIAL STATEMENT WE WILL BE ABLE TO ANSWER OUR OWN QUESTIONS!

THE IRS ISSUE IS LOOOONG RESOLVED AND A DEAD ISSUE SO WE SHOULD STOP BRINGING IT UP EVERY DAY. WE ALREADY KNOW THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER AND THE FACT IS THEY HAVE NO CURRENT IRS ISSUES.

Haven't I answered this question 50 times already????

Our selective reading glasses must be on once again!

The new venues (branches) are EXACTLY just that NEW!

Every year I see the same crap as if we don't already know that the new venues have not had enough time to establish a diversified clientele and mature. They need to mature over a year in order to have a as much of an impact as the already established matured branches.

That is why the company continues to PROVE that the established branches continue to show substantial increases in their business year over year. DUH!

There are many, many things that this company can do between now and when they come out with their 10K that could have an explosive positive impact on this stock.

Sell and take a loss with these fundamentals? I'm more inclined to recommend averaging down. This company isn't going out of business, it's going to continue to grow. It's only a matter of time before the stock is back to trading in parity with its operations.

Who know's? Maybe they'll take some of their cash and remove some of the shares off of the street?

At least we know they actually have the ability to do something like that!

Fingers crossed!
