CoachMarc's designation of VHUB as a "vape shop," while very incomplete as a description, did start me on a train of thought. I do recall from VHUB's September 10K that they would like to open additional retail outlets beyond their current two.

The company clearly does not have a surplus of working capital at the moment (this is not a "bash" in any way, just merely reflecting the debt which has been taken on via the Tympenex loan and the high-rate smaller loan which followed), and so I'm wondering out loud whether at least a piece of the company's future might be found in franchising the growth of their retail operations as contrasted to limiting themselves to company-owned stores.

I do know that it has become popular to outsource the franchising function, so that the current lack of "extra" working capital might not be all that troublesome.

I just thought that this discussion board might be ready for a change of pace from the general "antsy-ness" (the Yiddish word "Shpilkes" describes this perfectly) going on in anticipating the release of the quarterly income statement (though I think that the balance sheet will be every bit as important to reflect upon).

Let me wish you all a good week ahead, from our resident 1.2 million share-holder to Citadel Securities which probably is more current on reading this board than any of us.
