I urge anyone interested in CBAI to look over their SEC filings. Don't rely on the company press releases, as they are misleading. The are protected by the "forward looking statements" at the bottom of the press release. It didn't take long to come up with some very compelling facts about CBAI.
Here is a link to their last quarterly report:
CBAI Sept 30th 10Q
Let's cut right to the chase:
- CBAI is losing money at an ever increasing rate, and revenue is on the decline, not rising as the current stock price pump would lead you to believe.

Shares Outstanding 2,775,994,889 258,075,887
- The outstanding shares have increased from 258,075,887 to 4,568,253,327 on November 9th. That's an astounding growth in the outstanding shares.
- Over that same time revenues have fallen and net loss has risen. The company is losing over $2 million a quarter. They have lost close to $6 million in the last 9 reported months.
Straight from the 10Q:
Results of Operations for the Nine-Months Ended September 30, 2009
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, our total revenue decreased approximately $0.7 million, or 22.1% to $2.6 million. Rain’s revenues decreased approximately $0.5 million, or 71.6%, due to the steep down turn in the economy, and also due to the change in the Rain business model as well as our management decision to deemphasize this business.
Cord’s revenues decreased $0.2 million or 8.8%, to $2.4 million, because of significant cutbacks in marketing and advertising due to a lack of capital. Cord remains focused on strategic organic growth and accretive acquisition strategies, which management hopes will reduce or eliminate the losses and negative cash flow.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have experienced net losses of $6.0 million and $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. At September 30, 2009, we had $158,164 in cash. We currently collect cash receipts from operations through both of our subsidiaries: Cord and Rain. Cord's cash flows from operations are not currently sufficient to fund operations in combination with its corporate expenses. Because of this shortfall, we have had to obtain additional capital through other sources as discussed in Note 4, Notes and Loans Payable.
Are you guys following this?
Since inception, we have financed cash flow requirements through the issuance of common stock and warrants for cash, services and loans. As we expand our operational activities, we will likely continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations. We hope to be able to obtain additional financing to fund operations through equity offerings and borrowings to the extent necessary to provide the necessary working capital. Financing may not be available, and, if available, it may not be available on acceptable terms. Should we secure such financing, it could have a negative impact on our financial condition and our shareholders. The sale of debt would, among other things, adversely impact our balance sheet, increase our expenses and increase our cash flow requirements. The sale of equity could, depending on the terms of its placement, among other things result in dilution to our shareholders.
These words are not mine but straight from CBAI's 10Q. I once again urge you to read it.
If I had to give the cliff note version of it:
CBAI is losing money at an ever increasing rate, our revenues are on the decline, we don't have the funds to continue operating unless we can sell stock and dilute our loyal shareholders.
When CBAI is back at $.003 don't say the Guru hasn't warned you.

Big Liar
Another TRUE article! When will this be on the front of Google Finance today??? Can't wait for everyone to read it. So many have their blinders on. When the stock price was just .003, it has had its run and coming down and hard. Everyone will be so mad when that happens. Anyway, more people read google finance than any message board. Thanks for another great article!
Figures are right off the s-1 and are true. The hype has gotten away from itself and people are going to fall hard on this one. Expect a 50% decrease in one day. How many followers do you have that read your blog?
You obviously shorted this stock and find yourself up against a wall. Good luck but I think savvy, well informed investors will see right through this weak attempt to manipulate the stock. This is the closest I've ever seen to a "sure thing" in my time investing.
Russell as you will soon find out there is no "sure thing" with a stock at $.017. It's priced there for a reason and currently with the amount of shares hitting the market it will be priced a lot lower.
CBAI is bleeding money and will lose well over $10 MILLION next year at the current rate. Where is that money coming from? Right from shareholders in the form of dilution.
It is all right in the filings. I have not made up one number.
The debt they have reduced is good enough for me, they have paid off more debt than their losses produced. Whats your arguement to that?
Amiable dispatch and this post helped me alot in my college assignement. Thank you for your information.
