Shareholder Question: Share Buy-Back

 

Shareholder Question

Good Sunday sir.  I am texting to ask if you have ever thought of a share repurchase program? I read in your blog potential investors want you to raise the price in order to receive the loan. Maybe this way everyone wins. Use a percent of the loans to go toward repurchase program, some towards JV, Pps rises and more loans come in. At this price it seems you could buy on the open market for around 6 months and retire 500 million to a billion shares. It would make a lot more appealing moving forward and clean up the books. 

Answer

Thank you for your question.  You have anticipated one facet of our strategy to support our shares long term. There is a way in which shareholders are in a “win-win” situation, if we can alter our operating conditions somewhat.

If Winning Brands can generate sufficient operating net profit and allocate the surplus in two directions, debt repayment and share re-purchases, then shareholders can benefit from share repurchase (because the repurchases are not just short term and temporary).

Two alternatives can exist, and both are positive.

Many males are engaged in hand practice to prevent damage to parasympathetic nerves that are associated with an erection, anywhere purchase cheap levitra from 10% to 65% of men that undergo the procedures might experience impotence or ED condition. Mostly they viagra for women uk are about calming and quieting our mental, physical, or emotional distractions. This is widely ronaldgreenwaldmd.com cheap cialis used to treat impotency in men. One scenario is that the share price does not rise for the time being, but because of the low price the shares are affordable enough for the company to purchase and then “cancel”. In this scenario the issued and outstanding shares can be reduced rapidly.  In the worst case scenario of a .0001 price, literally all shares could be removed from the market for only $380,000.  That is a lot of money for the company at the moment, but may not be unrealistic if the company has operating success.  If as the share count is reduced there will be an upward pressure on price, that will be good for shareholders.

The alternative scenario is that the positive circumstances of the company cause the share price to increase beyond an affordable buyback scenario.  In that case, the buyback is a moot point because the price will be considerably higher than it is now – and that will be good for shareholders too.

Accordingly, the top priority is to find a way to add profit flow to Winning Brands.  This may be possible through astute joint ventures in which Winning Brands’ partnership is “purchased” through its effort and JV service contribution, rather than cash.  We are working on some of those scenarios now.

Aside from all the fancy planning, some things in life come down to plain old-fashioned good luck.  We seem to have been getting some lucky breaks recently.  These have a way of creating a new vibe that leads to favorable outcomes.  One should not depend on luck of course, but plenty of success stories have had special moments of good fortune.

Let’s be open to all of these things.

Cheers,
Eric Lehner, CEO
