so Jerry, if I understand you correctly.. you now think the company issued over 2 billion shares at a huge discount so they could buy them back at a premium on the open market?
you

you deserve a little R&R..

well jerry

hopefully in your conversation with expo's TA
you and elson discussed the possibility (or lack
thereof) of the co.s AS increasing .. being shown
on the NV SOS site and those *shares* hitting the
tape .. 15 minutes later on the SAME DAY .. as i
suspect you discovered ... it doesn't work that way

that is exactly what happened on 11/29/2010 and it
was a major screw up done by whichever entity has been
*consistently* shorting EXPH since approx 11 am on 9/15/2009

here's another clue jerry .. *retail* isn't known
for shorting
.. and there is no doubt imo that whichever
*entity* shorted EXPH (it was actually done via those
*curious trades* between those 2 well orchestrated runs
in 2009) has now created a rather interesting paradox

'cos while the pps is indeed cellar boxed .. *volume* has
to show now 2 X per month .. b4 the 15th and b4 the eom

and so it will go .. which is why i keep *pressing* to find
out if the *router* down for 6 weeks impacts transparency
*expected* in jan 2011 .. or pushes out another 6 weeks

and while some may post .. why doesn't mgmt issue *transparency*
on what they have now
.. my analysis is .. they've see too many
times over the last 2 years .. what info released *piecemeal* results
in .. which is why when the BOD appointments are pr'd (material
event) out of mgmt .. imo all the *other* aspects covering EXPO's
transparency will follow .. could be the same day or the same week

what *imo* won't happen is aiding and abetting a *mini run* only
to see EXPH *SHORTED* right back down .. as has been the *norm*

==
imo it will be EXPH's first ever *CONTENT* driven run .. jerry
everything *b4* .. has been *orchestrated*


==

now what i want to know is beyond .. fins/forms/ceo/etc retail

is whether we see audited fins for fy 2010 (due march 2011)
and if there is an announcement re: ETC .. (on a regional
basis with big box retail acct) after *transparency* and
post *requisite* short back down


then i want to see if indeed the intent is to take the co.
private in 2011 .. imo audited fins and a r/s will be a fact

again i know what i'd do .. i'm curious to see what the new ceo does

Jerry...while I have no concrete proof of this, I think it became obvious a good while back that the T/A for EXPH is partially gagged. You asked a valid question about EXPH share dispersion that I believe EXPH management has determined would serve little but to lead to another half dozen valid questions. Which if answered would lead exponentially to another dozen and so on...the results if truth be known a massive disaster for JD Brown. In addition, IMHO the insane premise that these shares are being bought up and tightly held by zealous insiders would disappear in puff of smoke....the very second the info you requested was made known. It would also likely lay open to the light that insiders have sold common shares and that would lead to overwhelming evidence the company is (as I suspect) in serious trouble financially, out of operating capital and relying on share sales almost exclusively to keep the doors open. No, I have no concrete proof of this but in such situations it only makes sense to look for one explanation that answers all questions. And Expo Holdings, Inc. being broke, desperate and facing serious repercussions from their shareholders if the truth comes out is the only answer that performs satisfactorily. The situation that got them into their current dilemma is JD Brown's greed, naiveté and endless belief he could just dilute the company until better times arrived and then "make up" for things later. Well, share sales can't cancel out incompetence and indifference to reality...not forever. And "ever" has arrived.

You will never get a satisfactory answer to your question. Right now Brown has finally realized that if he continues misleading in documented form, he is just digging his grave deeper with each PR. So he has clamed up...gone silent. His CEO electee may well have got cold feet and backed away. EXPH may have even received inquires as to what is going on from sources that can't be lied to or misled. Once again, I am speculating here, but assuming the picture I am painting would be true, everything, everything fits neatly. Everything then makes sense. No clandestine James Bond scenarios are necessary. No secret overthrow plots required. No constantly changing, ever adjusting, rambling excuses designed to prolong denial and inject a glimmer of hope where common sense dictates none should exist. Just the natural progression of greed and dilution destroying a small company run by the naive and foolish who sought to foist their financial problems off on the backs of others. Arrogant, self righteous wannabes who thought they knew best and there actually was a free lunch and a management team that is about to discover the consequences of what happens when the 800 pound gorilla shows up with the dinner tab. That is what is very likely happening here. That is most likely why you can't get logical answers to your valid questions. All IMHO.
