HearAtLast to Launch Online Hearing Store Targeting North American Seniors' Internet Demand (Released at the close today)
MISSISSAUGA, ON--(Marketwire - 01/14/10) - HearAtLast Holdings, Inc. (Pinksheets:HRAL - News), a leading provider of suitable affordable solutions to clients with hearing needs in the billion dollar hearing loss market co-located within select Wal-Mart Canada locations, announced today that its launching an On-line Hearing Store to target the vastly growing seniors' market in North America.
HearAtLast is in the final stages of launching its new On-line Hearing Store. Developed to address increasing internet demand for Hearing Accessories, Batteries, Assistive Listening Devices and EarBuds, this market segment has become far more attractive over the last calendar year as far more seniors utilize the internet for purchases. It also enables HRAL to cross the border for on-line sales. Recent numbers show that close to 20 million seniors spend an average of 58 hours per month on line. Additional growth comes in the form of "Linda" (the term given to the caregiver in the household) who experiences the most impact from hearing related issues States Robert J. Oswald, Executive Vice President. "Linda" is always taking care of both the immediate and extended family; this arena simplifies the process for a great deal of consumers as many communication issues can be remedied with Assistive Listening Devices which are non prescribed items by simply ordering online he adds. Significant growth is also projected from the Generation X and Baby Boomer crowd, as they begin to address and deal with escalating hearing issues by investing in safe sophisticated hi-fidelity EarBuds for iPods & MP3 players along with the wireless world. Our initial aim is to keep Sku's to a minimum with pre-selected "Best of Class" products in these segments.
Hi Zen,
I agree with you although I do believe that a senior exchange listing will bring much better coverage and security to potential investors. Along with that will come the promotion we are waiting for, much like we saw back in September. However, unlike the ensuing sell off that followed that run up, we'd have the credibility to hold on to any potential gains.

All looks good on paper bro,
but like you and I said the other day, we need to upgrade our stock listing. Not only does a pink involve wide, variable spreads, it also implies that a Company is not as concerned about it's shareholders as a Company that is. We know in our case that rule doesn't apply, as Mr. Ketner has the shareholders in mind with just about every decision he makes. However, it's the new money that should be, would be coming in if we had a more senior stock listing that keeps us down at the current levels. All my opinion of course.
As for the news, I'm very happy to see that KLYG has added value to my shares and everyone else's for that matter. Although the paragraph above may sound a tad sour, I won't be parting with my shares any time soon. It would be nice to see more updates from mngt though and I would not rule out another forward split in the near future (1 purchase and 1 pending purchase). Again, all my opinion.
GLTA and let`s keep the faith that Ketner et al will get us off the pinks and back on the OTC or higher.
Hyper
Hey Doubt,
Four years, damn, now that's patience! I agree with you on the outlook for this company. I'm quite certain that we'll be trading at much higher levels in the future, however, I have been disappointed by the lame factor of the past 2 news releases. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that my expectations of KLYG's progress since the mgnt shake up have been a major let down. I thought that with the additions of Mr. Delligatti and Mr. Findlay we would put the pinks behind us and start a monumental climb in pps.
Here's another company I recently dropped some coin on. The symbol is HRAL (also a pink) and they announced on Dec 29,09 that they put together a new BOD. Within a week they put out a news release stating that they were getting off the pinks and securing an OTC listing. I have suggested a number of times over the past year that KLYG do this, that I believe it will have an immediate positive effect on our shares.
Below is the news release from HRAL:
HearAtLast Prepares to List on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board
MISSISSAUGA, ON -- (Marketwire) -- 01/05/10 --
HearAtLast Holdings, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HRAL), a leading provider of suitable affordable solutions to clients with hearing needs in the billion dollar hearing loss market, announced today that it is near completion of its 2008/09 audit and will be preparing documentation to become a fully reporting Company, listed on the OTCBB
As a reporting company, HearAtLast Holdings, Inc. will be required to file annual reports on Form 10-KSB, quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB, and reports or unusual events on Form 8K. In addition, the Company will be required to solicit proxies for its annual meetings in accordance to Section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and other reporting requirements will apply to management shareholdings
HearAtLast Holdings, Inc. is currently trading on the Pink Sheets, under the symbol HRAL. Upon the effective date of the Form 10 filing, the Company will attain Section 12 (g) reporting status with the SEC, under the Exchange Act of 1934, which will allow for broader market participation in the Company's shares by institutional investors
"We are pleased to be in the final stages of our endeavor to become a full reporting company with a listing on the OTCBB. Our legal team will be preparing a Form 10 submission with the SEC that will include the audit
Upon effectiveness of the Form 10, HearAtLast Holdings, Inc. will become a reporting Company and its shares will be eligible for listing on the OTCBB," said Matthew Sacco, Chief Executive Officer of HearAtLast Holdings, Inc
Further stated Mr. Sacco, "With our expansion plans, this registration will allow for a much broader shareholder base and deeper institutional investments. A lower cost of capital to sustain our expansion and operational advancements is pivotal in our rapid expansion plans. We have already secured a couple of different financial opportunities to accommodate this growth. We expect the fully reporting status to open many more options."
HearAtLast opened its first store on October 18, 2006 in London, Ontario, Canada. To date HRAL has 29 hearing stores operating in Canada, 28 co-located within select Wal-Mart Canada Super Centers and traditional Wal-Mart Stores
Perhaps another insignificant piece of news (considering the resulting volume of 500 shares traded). However, on the bright side we could see another doubling of our shares as the Company looks to raise $250,000 for their 15% stake in this MRI venture. If Mr. Ketner was still in charge, I'd say it was 99% sure that we'd see a forward split.... Guess we wait and see
Pursuant to the terms of the letter of intent, Kelyniam will pay $250,000 ("Purchase Price") for its equity interest in the MRI facility ("Equity Interest"). In order for the Company to complete the Equity Investment, it will need to raise the necessary capital through the sale of Kelyniam's securities, debt, or a combination thereof, of which there can be no assurance. Pursuant to the terms of the letter of intent, the company will be required to pay $250,000 upon the execution of the final purchase agreement. Additionally, Joseph Delligatti, Kelyniam's new President and Chief Executive Officer, and Roger Findlay, one of Kelyniam's directors, both have an equity interest in MSA Imaging, LLC, the manager and majority owner of the MRI facility
This is what's going on...

Hello All,
My new alert is Kelyniam Global Inc. KLYG. The stock is currently
offered at 48 cents.
Please begin your research here www.kelyniam.com and here

Here is a link to a video about KLYG
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8s8eu_kelyniam-video-report_news
KLYG is a balanced vertically-integrated corporation. The company
currently services a vast array of clients across numerous fields
and industries encompassing, but not limited to, dental, medical,
automotive, aerospace, jewelry, nautical and consumer products. The
company specializes in the use of CADCAM technology with recent
developments in the production of high precision replication of
artificial bone implants for medical applications.
KLYG has over fifty years combined experience in aerospace,
research, and mechanical engineering.
KLYG has a small float so it could move easily.
KLYG is profitable.
KLYG`s involvement in cranial implants could bring them a lot of
growth this year.
KLYG has teamed up with a major medical supplier to provide cranial
implant models used in creating Bio Compatible bone replacements
that are a near perfect replication for damage bones structures in
the human skull.
KLYG does this by using a combination of traditional medical
technology and cutting edge Bio-Cad/Cam technology.
This technology will help replace some of the use of steel in the
repair of bone fractures. Steel has been used for over a hundred
years.
With KLYG`s process, the implants they can help produce are of
higher tolerance, greater comfort, and has a shorter recovery time
than has been possible with traditional steel techniques because of
a near exact fit.
KLYG has made it possible to create the master model their medical
supply partners can use to create an implant that is a near perfect
fit to the damaged area. By importing the CT Scan data into the
computer, a technician is able to recreate a 3 dimensional CAD
model of the patient's skull and design an implant to cover the
damaged section.
KLYG is currently researching on how to broaden their Implant
capabilities to other body parts with the use of Cad/Cam
technology.
Cad/Cam technology is used to help dentists fabricate precise
shapes and sizes for dental restorations, including inlays, onlays,
crowns, and bridges.
KLYG intends to expand into maxillofacial structures and dental
implants.
It has been said that the dental market will reach $9.4 billion in
2010.
KLYG has a history of making big moves in a hurry. If you look back
at the chart you will see that KLYG can move 25% or more in a day.
The stock looks like it is about to run here.
KLYG moves quickly in both directions so make sure you book your
profits and protect your downside.
This stock is best for aggressive traders who can monitor their
positions throughout the day.
As always book profits when in a position to do so and USE STOPS to
protect your profits and capital.
Good Investing,
Mark
As i typed that last msg I notice another 100,000 shares were scooped up. I'm thinking news is around the corner...
Things look to be picking up today. I'm sure that seller at .19 earlier this morning is kicking him or herself about now. Patience is a virtue with this holding... I have no doubt in my mind that this will evolve into a cash cow in the not too distant future.
Good find Rusty.
If you haven't done so yet, do yourself a favor and invest in 5 to 10 thousand shares. Then sit back and within a year or two you may just have enough ROI to pay your house off. I'm of the mindset that it will be within the next year that we see some major gains. I'd love to see us get out of this pinky status and on a more reputable exchange. I understand that this will happen in time, but that move, in conjunction with all the positives of this Company, will propel us into the multi-dollar range.
Hold tight and prosper!
I'm seeing 34x39 21,000 traded. 5 transactions, all buys
GM all... Now this is what I was hoping to see when all the new faces showed up at the week's onset. I'm surprised it took this long to get this snow ball in motion, but it's now at the edge of the hill and ready to roll! Good luck to all and keep an eye out for some timely PR's from Mr. Ketner
With the amount of posting here over the past few days you'd think we'd have pushed over a buck per share. Having been in this since the start of the year, I've seen this trade in similar patterns in the past. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to see new faces here with positive outlooks for this incredible company. It just seems odd that this increased interest here at Ihub has not correlated into much volume or increase in pps. Perhaps that will change today...
Looks like that promotion we've been waiting for is underway. With all these new names all of a suddenly posting non stop over the past few days it seems that something is definitely in the works. That and the positive statements of Mr. Ketner regarding future business. Not sure if the two are connected, since the all out posting blitz began prior to Mr. Ketners comments. Too bad that all that cheer leading has had little to no effect on our pps thus far.
Riteone, I've been where you are more times than I'd care to admit and can understand your frustration. I learned a while ago to just sell and move on rather than wait and wait and wait some more.
Personally, I like the way things are being done with this Company. Sure, Mr. Ketner could start issuing all kinds of shares to promoters to make us more visible. However, I believe he is patiently waiting to get everything lined up prior to opening the gates. Once those gates do open, the pay off, in my opinion, will be much more than I can make trading in and out of stocks on a daily basis. With such a small float, we will easily see $10 plus pps when the game begins... again, in my opinion. I feel this is well worth the wait. Moreover, it is very rare to find such a jewel of a Company with a CEO who really does care about his fellow shareholders, rather than lining his own pockets at our expense.
I have a feeling that we will see another 2 for 1 forward split soon. The reason I say this is that I believe demand will be high on the current machine and there will be a need for additional equipment. Furthermore, as profits begin to roll in, there will be a great amount of attention from institutions etc. who will want in on this. A doubling of shares will allow Mr. ketner to provide equity to these institutions in exchange for the cash required for expansion. This is all speculation on my part, however, I would not rule out a European facility or even an Asian facility in the distant future. Thoughts?
Should hear something this week regarding initial shipments. Mr. Ketner stated, in the July 22/09 release, that operations would be in gear by the start of August.
Mr. James Ketner, President/CEO, added: "We have contracted a specialist that utilizes this type of equipment and software, and has a tremendous amount of experience in high tolerance precision machining of polymers.
With the consultant's assistance, we will overcome many of the types of mistakes that would normally come with learning about the processes involved with this type of machining and materials. We hope to be operational, and begin selling our new products by August 1st."
I love how this is setting up right now. We now have the equipment up and running which will produce a product that is NOT dependent upon a consuming public, but rather upon the health insurance industry. With Obama's universal health care plan gaining momentum, surgeries such as bone replacement could be accessible to anyone. At this time, I'm sure there are peeps out there who are not able to have said procedure done due to lack of coverage and lack of funds.
I still feel that our status as a pinky is what is holding us back at this time. I know investors who refuse to invest in a non-reporting company (pink), even one with all the i's dotted and the t's crossed like Kelyniam. In addition, some on-line brokers will not allow an investor to buy or sell pinks unless the investor calls an order in, which often deters one from making a play. That said, I hope to see something in the not too distant future regarding this matter in conjunction with a promotion of all the positive aspects of this Company. Can you imagine where that would take our PPS?
I've been holding strong since January of this year and was happily rewarded with forward split which was quite nice. I haven't paid much attention to this one, as it can go days without a single trade. However, I believe those days are behind me now as Kelyniam has announced that they are on the verge of becoming a cash cow. Along with that, interest has picked up and our pps is showing signs of heading to new 52 week highs. That said, I will be keeping a closer eye on this one.
I've read most of the posts on this board and see that a few are struggling with a lack of exposure regarding Kelyniams progress. I have to agree with them somewhat, but I feel that when the time is right, this Company will get it's proper promotion. The biggest obstacle I see is being listed on the pinks. I know Mr. Ketner had his reasons for doing this, but perhaps it's time for him to meet the necessary requirements to become a fully reporting OTC listed company. Has anyone brought this matter up with Mr. Ketner during conversation?
I'm at work, reading on my cell phone. Went back and read the release again and i guess i misinterpreted the exchange of MEI shares for MRIB shares at 10 for 1 i think it said. Oh well, disregard that...
All depends on who's getting all those shares. One positive in all of that is we end up with just a 1 for 25 r/s, if I am reading that correctly.
Hope to see some positive response in share price tomorrow.
Looks like we should open around $4.00 on Monday?
That link states March 31 as the date that the symbol changes and the RS takes effect.
http://www.otcbb.com/asp/dividend.asp?sym_id=FFBU&dDate=3/31/2008&sDateType=ex_date
It's now official... we all knew it was gonna happen, although I'm sure we all hoped it wasn't going to be that drastic. Let's raise our glasses and have a toast to our new company (MRIB)! Have a great weekend all and may Monday bring us some nice returns!
If that scenario is in fact true (I haven't seen it myself) then I am truly disappointed. Although this is Adelle's baby, I don't feel that it's right that we as FFBU shareholders should pay such a heavy price to be a part of the new entity. The way it looks to me, based on the few posts regarding this matter, it is only the existing holders who get the hair cut... while she keeps her 80 plus million shares?!?
I was hoping for a little pop this morning after the buying pressure yesterday, but I'm not surprised by the lack of action. I think that with the official release of news that outlines all the details regarding reverse split of shares this will get moving.
I'm a little confused by your post and hope that you might clarify how your friend is related to Usana. Is this friend named Lawson by any chance?
Good morning all,
Not playing out the way I hoped it would, but that's what uncertainty brings to the table. I really don't appreciate the wording that Route 32 has chosen in regards to the proposed reverse split. Perhaps this is a tactic to remove shares from our hands, however, as some posted yesterday, it is they who bought the shares and not Route 32.
I personally do not believe the RS will be as extreme as 250 for 1, based solely on the outcome of the outstanding if this occurs. As NEL points out in the 4th line of his post:
4. Possible sale of substantially all of the Company's assets to Mr. Mark Poulsen? He also got 70,000,000 shares of common stock, 20,000,000 for a $134,176 debt instead of preferred stock. With the RS split he would have 280,000 shares + 250,000 more if a RS happens. So he will have 530,000
Assets are $178,351 (or $1,208,787) + debt of $134,176 = $312,527 (.58 share)
I believe Poulson gave up control of his 70 to 80 million shares in the sale to Route 32. However, if a RS is carried out within a year of the sale, he is to be awarded 250,000 shares, post RS. With a RS of 250-1, there would be approximately 400,000 outstanding plus the 250,000 in Poulson's pocket. Poulson would have roughly 40% control in the new company, leaving Ruger et al with around 52% and us with less than 10%.
I don't know about the rest of ya's, but I just don't see Route 32 and Ruger giving Poulson that much of their new company unless this was all just a well orchestrated plan from the onset. Thoughts?
Things are moving along very well. I was a little concerned that there might be a snag or two in the completion of this deal, however, that is now in the past.
What do you feel the time-line will be for the announcement of the new company? Do you think that Ms. Ruger already has things lined up or will it be a month or so before we hear the details?
I'm pumped about the upcoming week and the ones beyond. The hand off is to be completed in the next week and barring any hold ups, we should receive info regarding the new direction Mrs. Ruger intends to take this.
Good morning Sydney and all, that .039 was the last sale on Friday, it came in right near the close of trading. Looks like a stalemate right now, but once someone takes the first bite out of the ask this will get moving. I can't see too many peeps selling at the bid this week unless they really need the cash.
The thing I like about Mrs. Ruger and the Joytoto deal is that it was an actual company with a real product and sales to back them up. That said, I feel very confident (based on Adelle's history, albeit short) that we can expect a relatively healthy company being merged into FFBU. A company with a proven track record will definitely have a very positive affect on share price right out of the gate... IMHO
Not necessarily a real estate play, but then again who knows. This looks like Miss Rugers's second RM, she previously dealt with a company called Joytoto.
http://yahoo.brand.edgar-online.com/PeopleFilingResults.aspx?PersonID=4123482
Joytoto (JYTO) has done well and yes Braden, it was an Asian play, although it was Korean. JYTO has over 150 million shares and is trading at $0.70 today.
Business Description
Joytoto Company Limited Formerly known as Lototo Company Limited. The Company's principal activities are the manufacture, assembly, distribution and importation of asphalt recycling machines. The Astencook is the solution for recycling old asphalt turning it into the perfect hot patch material. Asphalt recycling is the perfect way for road maintenance crews to dispose of waste asphalt, repair utility cuts and fill potholes and stay environmentally friendly. It has a worldwide network of distributors in the United States, Canada and Japan.
Very nice to see that word is getting out there about our little gem. I'm figuring on a steady climb until the new ownership is announced. Then who knows...
As far as the itchy "sell finger" perhaps the best thing to do is to sell enough to get your initial investment back and let the rest ride as free shares. It sure would be a bummer to get out now only to see this run above 20 cents and more. If I had a crystal ball I'd know what to do, but that'd take the fun out of times like this! Best of luck to you Braden and everyone else reading this board.
I think we have some peeps that missed the early bargains and now see the potential of this opportunity. In my opinion, 3 cents is still a very cheap entry point.
Now that was a positive, yet comical post Rain, thanks. I'm with you Braden, I hope for good results for everyone in whatever they endeavor to try or do.
It's something you get used to around here Loges. The good thing is that the stock holds it's own and moves very quickly when the volume kicks up. There are still many peeps on the sidelines awaiting RM news and I'm sure they will be chasing this one up when the news arrives.
Thanks for the advice Blue and I hope that things become more positive for you in the future. I think I'll stick around and see where this goes...
A very nice close today... It was good to see that buying coming in over the last few minutes. If the new team coming in inherits Paulsons shares in exchange for cold hard cash, are the 70 mil still restricted for one year?
