That sounds like two worn out mediocre club fighters who are both on the ropes with no gas left in the tank. NPHC can get money in a private placement - not Rik's last promise to investors, but nonetheless a viable option. Frank has to pull a Rocky Balboa.

All possible, but not the stuff of investing. More like gambling.

Realizing that Cobroxin is in the hands of an undercapitalized marketing firm that has not executed well, does one have any doubt that a top flight firm with the right amount of know how and capital would be able to give Cobroxin a real shot at success?

Frank has to be as smart as then undercapitalized Red Bull was many years ago when they used unconventional methods to get Red Bull on the map by gaiining cult status. I am very familiar with that situation because I was "editor in chief aka daddy help me" of my daughter's paper on Red Bull while she was at Wharton. I recommend that Frank read up on that story and many others about products that would have never gotten off the ground had they not used unconventional advertising methods to get around the fact that they did not have the capital to succeed. I would bet that most posters here use Cobroxin because they found out about it in unconventional ways. It then developed a cult status among users. That concept has to be played up IMO.

Geo- good post on the yahoo NPHC board. Way to push back the emotional Frank haters. The cult like NPHC investors don't understand that Rik's burn rate prohibits him from hiring a big time distributor that will actually charge a steep monthly retainer AND commission. Big time distributors/retail brokers are going to put back the cost of marketing on NPHC as well. This isn't a big time biotech company (as Rik would like everyone to believe). XCHO is the best option for NPHC right now.

Though it would probably never happen-- I want to throw something out there for discussion. Frank has a very captive investment base. Apparently there are many soft commitments for any additional equity, if needed (private placement). However, he is sensitive to not diluting. Naturally, the inclination is to wait until the PPS is much higher to raise capital.

New capital can be used to start marketing new products, OR...(here is comes)- what if XCHO entirely buys the patent to Cobroxin or simply takes a huge investment in NPHC?

People can say what they want about XCHO and Frank. Truth is that XCHO owns the shelf space and platform that Cobroxin is currently on. The broker network is in place, and investors/lenders are clamoring to help XCHO execute. Frank might not be the best face man for a publicly traded company. However, he has built the infrastructure for some level of long term value. Now we need to start squeezing that intrinsic value...

Dano...please consider a few thing before you post

1 Some people need a complete picture painted before they recognize art.
2. Some people go to artists showings and complain when they cant get walmart prices.
3. Some people need guidance EVERY step of the way, only to complain when they themselves mess up.
4. Some people light off a bottle rocket and proclaim to be rocket scientists.
5.Some people look at pennys and want blue chip performance and cry and throw everything out of the sandbox when they dont get there way

And the last is please understand that I want more shares at these prices. Stop painting, showing, guideing and babysitting until my stash is complete.

Some of us never will get it.


I am so happy with what is going on and cant wait for the future of this company. I think everything is moving along great and when we look back nexyt year at this time I think we will have the puzzle much more complete. Oh and by the way I thin we will see about 2.4 million third Q.
