$132,388,000,000 that is the present value of the OS of Coca-Cola. Coca Cola OS = 2.3 Billion at $57.56

Well it is a good thing this poster was not the analyst or person in charge of making decisions for the Coca Cola company otherwise it would have been shot dead before it turned into the empire it is today. The statements made in the post below are SCARE TACTICS and nothing less. Is HFBG presently Coca Cola? No. But no one can say they dont have the same promise. I think they will sell much more than 9 drinks per day!

You must be smarter than all analyst combined. It wont matter in the price? please get a grip. Revenues will help. A good business will help. But to think that this could be a dollar evr is rdiculas. That would mean a 4 billion dollar company. At .50 it is is billion. At .25 it is a billion. at .12 it is 500 miilion, at .06 it is 250 million, at .06 it is 125 million. At .03 it is 72.5 million. At .015 it is 37.3 million!!! At .0075 it is a 17.5 million dollar company. Do you really think that this company will ever have the required 5 million dollars in annual profit required for that kind of valuation? this is just math people. Not scare tacticts. It could be a great company but it will always trade realative to its value. The beverage business survives on less than 10% margins which is better than most other food types. That would mean that the company would need 50 millio or more a year in revenue just to substantiate 0.0075. Today the market is over valuaing the company based on its potential at todays prices but everything always settles to its actual value. But I forgot you said that the OS does not matter in determining a share price.

The Chronicle Of Coca-Cola
BIRTH OF A REFRESHING IDEA

The product that has given the world its best-known taste was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 8, 1886. Dr. John Stith Pemberton, a local pharmacist, produced the syrup for Coca-Cola®, and carried a jug of the new product down the street to Jacobs' Pharmacy, where it was sampled, pronounced "excellent" and placed on sale for five cents a glass as a soda fountain drink. Carbonated water was teamed with the new syrup to produce a drink that was at once "Delicious and Refreshing," a theme that continues to echo today wherever Coca-Cola is enjoyed.

Thinking that "the two Cs would look well in advertising," Dr. Pemberton's partner and bookkeeper, Frank M. Robinson, suggested the name and penned the now famous trademark "Coca-Cola" in his unique script. The first newspaper ad for Coca-Cola soon appeared in The Atlanta Journal, inviting thirsty citizens to try "the new and popular soda fountain drink." Hand-painted oilcloth signs reading "Coca-Cola" appeared on store awnings, with the suggestion "Drink" added to inform passersby that the new beverage was for soda fountain refreshment. During the first year, sales averaged a modest nine drinks per day.

Dr. Pemberton never realized the potential of the beverage he created. He gradually sold portions of his business to various partners and, just prior to his death in 1888, sold his remaining interest in Coca-Cola to Asa G. Candler. An Atlantan with great business acumen, Mr. Candler proceeded to buy additional rights and acquire complete control.
