This is an opinion only and not toward the poster...
"Question: If BKMP did a reverse split, would the R/S also effect the preferred shares?!?"
*** What preferred shares? Do you mean bkmpp.pk that never settled in my Scottrade account. All year all I've had is what the brokers call a token ... L994## or something like that. Not tradable. Never. The same 'GIFT' that allegedly cost, um 1,500 per million reducted from billion common shares conversion? The other name for this is Reverse/split but with the added bonus that Winick could conceivably generate cash from NOTHING-(outside whatever small processing fees). Which the conversion is interesting in that when I contacted Scottrade by phone just before the deadline (Deadline- supposed to mean NO GOOD ANYMORE! - but no one's sure) Scottrade told me I don't own any preferred bkmpp because it wasn't delivered, it's not settled in account and I can't trade a token that doesn't have a market stock symbol. Which begs the question .. WHAT was converted and why wouldn't Scottrade let me convert? And how could some people convert with other brokers and I couldn't ***
" that if not, is it possible that a R/S may be the only means by which to make this company profitable, screwing all of us"
*** Yes, all us common shareholders will be screwed, nothing new there. Sub penny companies do reverse splits to make the CEO's and insiders profitable... There is not much proof that R/S improves companies in the Pinks/Gray, except when the new name and issue gives insiders, CEO's the chance to sell off before we retail traders even see the new name settled in our accounts to trade it, by that time it's sub penny again.
", with the except of those that converted their preferred?" I've forgotten just what the converted stock was.. restricted? common unrestricted? I don't think that was very clearly reported. Also, try and find documented proof other than a bkmp pr that shares were converted.
