PANL, I was in SLJB for many of the same reasons I'm in PBLS. I even made money on SLJB but have yet to make any here. Comparables betweent he two companies?
SLJB has multiple locations of verifiable construction supply facilities. PBLS has multiple locations of construction companies and a sand & gravel supply facility. Both firms claim revenue and net income are generated by their facilities.
SLJB had a verfiable 25 year history as a supplier. PBLS has a shorter term but verifiable history.
Both have made claims regarding outstanding shares but neither has been fully transparent.
Both have had pie in the sky money making entities to sweeten holding them. SLJB made the claim for over half a billion dollars in sales in cement, lumber and supplies for the Middle East. PBLS has dreams of oil discoveries in Wyoming and Nevada.
Both had long term managment still in place at the time of my purchases with long histories in their communities.
Both promised audited financials.
Some differences?
SLJB lied about their auditors.
SLJB lied about their acquesitions.
Paul Alonzo, although impuned by many still remains at the head of the Company.
SLJB however after my entry made a change to a CEO not once but twice.
PBLS has had more verifiable business acquisitions.
PBLS has entities and licenses that are more verifiable via the internet.
The entities PBLS have acquired are traceable through independent magazines and newspapers.
Every business PBLS operates is located in the U.S.. SLJB was purportedly in Canadian, U.A.E., German, Eqyptian etc.
PBLS has issues IMO. Transparancy, no audited financials, lawsuits, failure to follow through on dates of promise, recinded buy backs and an arrogant CEO so we have a 1 1/5 cent price.
They are however very transparent as to what they are doing and people they bring in as management. I always had doubts about SLJB as with any penny stock. I have doubts with PBLS but have a far more positive view as I read about their attorneys, auditors, acquisitions and at times failures.
