Expo Holdings Inc. (EXPH)

isn't it tho'

It is wonderful to have the time to pursue such intense fact finding missions

--
again it will always come down to one's respective DD

mine is basic .. since i am fully cognizant of how the
real world operates .. both in realistic time frames
and maintaining *customers* and capturing new ones

i've also never *ignored* the reality of a crappy economy
and the impact that had on expo holdings .. this seems to
be overlooked a lot by some .. but i've said from the start
i was grateful expo survived .. late 2008/early 2009

i understood exactly what the *real world* diversification
of introducing ETC meant when announced and discussed via
the co.s CC back in late july 2009 .. ETC was a bonus to me
because it's diversification complemented co.s overall abilities

i also understood that a launch date being met meant product
was now available for resale .. nothing else .. since this kind
of *selling* into X customer doesn't happen overnight even if
X was located next door and came to market via franchises or
X was a big box diy type outfit with over 1700 locations

anyone who expected expo to put etc into 1700 locations or
even 250 locations .. last 9/15 .. needs a reality check

it doesn't work that way in the real world on multiple levels

anyhow .. fortunately i've revised my focus since with todd's
unexpected passing i'd written off etc and X .. for 2010 ..
well that X may be delayed while a buyer is found .. but other
X's imo are very much being addressed and i now expect etc to
contribute *nicely* to the bottom line for 2010

that reminds me .. it would appear some need a basic primer
on q's/K's and what is due out by MGMT

as i've posted *repeatedly* .. exph sor are awaiting

'q3 09
'q4 09 (aka a 10K and if audited a big clue :))
'q1 10
'q2 10 (on the road to full transparency q2 would be due 8/15/10)

now *guidance* for 2009 was given at 6M .. and was commented on at
last year's SM on 12/2/09

2010's guidance was given in july 2009 on the CC and revised downward
also at the SM on 12/2/09

if all comes on or b4 9/15/10 (including form 3s) and a reiteration
of guidance for fy 2010 .. q3 would be due out on nov 15 with q4 aka
10K being due 3/30/2011 .. which is why *i* am so curious to see if
q4 09 is indeed audited .. if so i'd expect q4 10 to be audited as well

again .. i look forward to what is known on or b4 9/15/10
and i make no bones about tripling my exph shares at .0001
if efforts to take pps to the cellar are successful

i have no doubts .. i won't be alone *there*
