Smith Sam, Be assured that I am in no way offended by your skepticism. If anything, I have been lacking in providing reasons to support my prediction of .16 by June 20th (and, it is truly my prediction, and not from management). So, let’s start....
I had hoped we would have heard by May 15th about the elimination of convertible debt (not to be confused with the end of selling because there could still be some previously converted shares that have yet to hit the retail market) as indicated by management at the shareholder meeting. Even so, I am optimistic that goal could still be realized. When that event occurs, the recent increased buying volume that we have witnessed lately will overtake the reduced selling, and the pps could rise dramatically.
The recent Zenergy Associates meeting that I attended was for shareholders who have signed up for the program. It was the many contracts produced and announced by the shareholders that were amazing... 12 restaurants (Whataburger), Cimarron Country Club (Club Corp!), a large hotel and many other businesses. Mind you, these are shareholders doing this, not management, just since May 12th, and a large portion of shareholders at the meeting had yet to complete the certification process. Also, the shareholders attending were encouraged to bring their contracts now, as there is funding to complete those contracts (funding!!). The funding and projected revenue that could be PR’d would do much to further improve the pps.
The Zero Cost program is truly zero cost. Understand that it is a non-entry item to the balance sheet, as it is a service agreement. Once the customer understands this and that the savings go directly to the bottom line, it is a no-brainer decision. It is a brilliant business plan that makes it now possible for most every business to take the step to being energy responsible without the huge cash outlay previously required.
Another contributing factor is Enertrade. We own a retail electricity provider. Even though the Zero Cost program is totally independent of the customer’s choice of electricity provider, it is very likely that at some point in time, we will have the chance to become their provider. The natural selling inroad there has tremendous potential to expand the Enertrade customer base. AND, Enertrade is expanding to two more states this year!
When any combination of these events occur, we could easily be on our way to .16. All this is just my humble opinion, but let’s see what happens. Good luck to all!
