Back then he was part of a penny stock promoting outfit, along with William Nalley, called 'Stocks That Move', this would have been 2013-2014, they sent out a newsletter promoting RAFA, usually making ridiculous price predictions and other highly speculative BS.
This was one of them, of course the stock never went to $5, instead it went sub-penny, there was never a deal with Sistema, never any 'billions' in sales. Rafarma, the Russian pharmaceutical plant operator, was eventually(2017) bought out by the PROTEK Group, and the US investors in RAFA didn't get squat in that deal.
