Good analogy. Yup, they've missed a layup and we don't quite know yet if they were able to rebound the ball.

I hope they sink the shot as well, we all have a lot of $$ riding on this, and time opportunity cost.

I'm so in line with you with regards to FC, and I'm sorry that you got cheated out of your payment for referrals, that is never good. I wish to god they weren't even franchisees and were out of the picture completely. The only good thing about them being a franchisee is they can't screw the company as a whole. My confidence in FC is zero. I still recall whomever the gentleman used car sales guy is that runs the place told me that stocks like UPZS should be expected to trade at 100 times earnings. I just laughed in his face, and still to this day I get angered at how many folks probably bought into that hook-line-and-sinker, and there's no guarantees that FC wasn't selling in the midst of all of this. All my opinion (IMO, every disclosure). I'm speculating but it's not illegal to speculate. Invest your $$ with 2 eyes open.

I guess they haven't read market history where the average company trades around a P/E of 15, except high-growth companies that sometimes command a 30-40 P/E. Average in the pizza industry I think is around 30/35 (or so). Gotta have the 'E' before that matters though.

I hope folks invested with reasonable time frames for returns, what happened last year was really a fluke... Someone ran it up and tanked it.

Good luck, All IMO
