General asks "WHAT HAS HE DONE TO THE STOCK IN A YEAR? "
In reality, a CEO can do NOTHING for a stock. If he purposely helps the stock, that is manipulation, and you'd be all over him for that. Instead, a CEO works on building the COMPANY. he builds value, and the stock should follow. Granted, we have not followed much yet, but we SHALL. Because the answer to your question is that Roger has done a LOT for the company over the past year. IN the past year, we opened Midtown, our biggest and best Snakes & Lattes. We started Tempe, which should open very soon; this quarter in fact. We expanded into the USA, not only with Tempe but by establishing a USA Expansion Team that is already working on other deals with other potential franchisees or joint Venturers. We also expanded into Europe, buying Morning from France. We then took Morning, and sold their game Kill the Unicorns to Walmart, not an easy feat. The game is in production now, and when out should be sold not only to Walmart but to other big box sellers as well. Plus WE shall sell it, making even larger profits on OUR sales than the wholesale sales to Walart. We ventured into South America with Ambrose hopefully working a deal with Colombia. Granted, we don't know much about that one yet, but we know something is in the works.
We went from $6.63 million in revenues in fiscal 2017 to $11.65 million with a quarter left to go in the 2018 fiscal year. HUGE growth. We purchased NSI, and have started expanding its base back again and hopefully even better than ever!
What else do you want? That's just the few I can think of off the top of my head. The CEO is responsible to keep the company moving forward. He is NOT responsible to make sure the stock doesn't have a bumpy ride on its way up. And again, if he DID try to do that, it would be illegal tampering and manipulation. So to answer your question, Roger has done a LOT, and the stock shall follow as the revenues grow to $20 million a year, then $30 million a year. And the stock? Although it will have downs along with the ups, as we get to $30 million in revenues, we shall NOT be at $.10 any more. That just won't happen. is it down from where it was? Yep. But with revenues growing from $6 million to $14 million or so this year after we get whatever the 4th quarter is? That tells me the CEO is doing his job....
Oh, and he took a loan out on his PERSONAL house to fund something big. My guess is the morning purchase. But he is COMMITTED to this company risking his all for its success.
When someone has that much conviction and that much growth going on, I call him a successful CEO.
This stock shall continue an uptrend over the years, even if at times it has overextended prices and then plops back down for a while and that's the way the market goes...
