I have a theory why a CEO might gag the TA. Not just to hide ruthless dilution. But to hide deals ,and details of mergers, buyouts, etc.
Like for instance. CSD brass got .25 restricted shares for a good portion of their compensation for selling. Basicly a merger when you buy out a company with shares. (as well as cash)... Anyways. Before the stock jumped to .02. Someone could look into that and find out whats going on before the companies are ready to officially announce it... Gagged TA stops any and all questions about share structure from being asked... Well, suposed to. lol. You seem to have cracked the code. You can PM me that code if you feel :).
Anyways. I also heard that sometimes they gag the TA because they get a hundred calls a day asking for an update...
You mention that all the revenue from CSD wont be included in the 2nd quarter financials... I would think that since the closing was in the second quarter. And CSD is now ARTI. I would assume that CSDs revenue for 2nd quarter would now be on ARTI's books for 2nd quarter.
We also have the Expo center in full swing all 2nd quarter. That is huge. And never before seen on an ARTI quarterly report...
One PR a couple months ago said that ARTI made like 337 grand. or 370 grand. IN ONE DAY!!! At one of their big saturday party events.
CSD revenue. Even on an off quarter. Should be $500,000. Considering they had $3.3 rev last year.
Though you are right that Football season etc... is most likely CSDs most proffitable time of year. 3rd quarter is going to be huge IMO.
And revenue is not proffit. I know that. But I do believe there is an equasion that values a stock based on revenue. Smaller multiplier. But I'm no pro. Dont shoot me if I'm wrong.
And I believe ARTI's proffit margin is very good. So revenue equals proffit. Dont know about CSD. But I read CSD doubled their income with the on-line technology, that ARTI swiftly adopted. ARTI plans to do the same. ANyways. If they doubled their income. I assume there is alot more proffits as a result...
So if we can score $500,000 rev from CSD. $2.5 mil from ARTI. Which isnt rediculous considering "that one" party accounts for almost 15% of that... Expo center opening was like a 5 day extravaganza...
Anyways... If ARTI pulls a $3,000,000 revenue number this quarter. Or anything close. And The OS is anywhere under a billion. Hopefully half that. But still. You are looking at huge revenue/share ratio. QUARTERLY!!!
