Yes Belgian, I found that too but there are two problems. First it's not the same company. It's Marani Spirits not Marani Brands. Second it did not have a last updated date but I found one at the State sight that did:

The thing that really bothers me is finding a second listing for Marani Spirits, Inc. filed in 2010 with Ara as the director listed and four unnamed employees. Here's the rub... it's a private company. And, they have $630,000 in sales while Marani brands has about that at the end of 2009 ($490,000 in sales and $120,000 in inventory)but end up with no cash on the balance sheet at Q1 2010. That's very fishy. It looks to me like the cash and assets somehow got transferred to a private entity. Now, if you go to EDGAR, there are so many transactions and confusing gyrations between MEI, the original public entity, employee stock plans and both MRIB and Marani Spirits that it will make you dizzy. Not sure if that was the intent. One curious one was Ara getting 10M shares in Marani for his worthless stock in MEI.
Bottom line is there is no current Marani Brands, Inc. operating in CA. Marani Spirits is a different entity. I'm just confused on how to characterize the whole deal but you can't operate and sell stock under one name and hide behind another. Marani Spirits, Inc. is not Marani Brands, Inc.
