Stocks To Watch - WTCG, KATX, DMPD, EMXC, SPMI
KATX just keeps moving right along. The trend is our firend with this stock. You can just sense the upside potential with this stock. I would not be surprised seeing $.10 tomorrow.
DMPD this stock exploded higher today after a decent surge on Tuesday. The momentum seems to be building, I wouldn't be fighting it. I think $.02 is a distinct possibility before the holiday shortened trading week ends.
EMXC this stock has held its footing the last few days. It is consolidating for the next break higher. $.0077 is the recent high that needs to be broken with conviction. After that break $.01 will come in short order.
SPMI with some impressive per share numbers from yesterday's 10K the stock sold off. Sometimes it is easier calling non-transparent pieces of garbage, then the most undervalued penny stock trading under $.10 a share like SPMI. I still think it heads higher and warrants a close eye this year.
DMPD - The Guru Gave You A Chance To Beat The Crowd
While I do not advocate buying and holding most penny stocks, I am a fan of buying up stocks no one knows about and selling them when people finally discover them. This can include shell stocks that have an attractive share structure. They can also include actively traded companies that are priced well-below their market value.
Late last year I wrote about DMPD. The stock had just bumped up to $.002 a share. From that point on it gyrated in a fairly narrow range until finally breaking out of its shell today and closing at $.01.
Here is my post from last year:
http://pennystockgurus.blogspot.com/2009/10/dmpd-chance-to-beat-crowd.html
Buying at $.002 back then would have brought you a 500% gain today. I think today's price action will continue into the weeks end.
DMPD is a stock to add to your watchlist, if you didn't already have it there when the Guru first told you about it.
KATX - Starting It's 3rd Leg Up
KATX again today posted 20% gains before some profit taking took the stock down a notch to close up 15%. It is becoming more evident by the day that KATX is going to hit $.10, the only question left is what it does after that.
I suspect this is the 3rd up leg in this long rally and the stock will reach new highs. Consider that each of the last two legs posted 500 - 1,000% gains. If history repeats itself KATX could hit $.30 a share. That would mean this rally still has some significant upside potential.
Today's action left me more confident about my bullish stance on this stock.

Wednesday Watch List - TNXI, EMXC, KATX, SPMI, CDIV
TNXI, a Guru's Buy and Hold, surged over 30% higher today, before settling up 22%. This is the start of the run that will bring this stock to the targets the Guru set last month when I made it a Buy and Hold: http://pennystockgurus.blogspot.com/2010/03/tnxi-added-to-gurus-buy-and-hold-list.html Short term $.25 Long Term $1.00+
EMXC rebounded smartly from an early session decline as buyer swooped in to take advantage of the under valued shares. The stock briefly posted 10%+ gains before pulling back slightly at the close. The stock has solid support at $.006 and some tough resistance at $.007. There have been two tries to break the $.007 barrier, each of which have been unsuccessful. The third time should be the charm. A break of $.007 would make the short term target that much closer.
KATX I expect this stock to open much higher tomorrow. You should have been listening to the Guru the last few months. I have a feeling those who did will be very, very happy.
SPMI released their annual report after the close, posting a $.01 profit. Currently trading at $.085 a share the stock is undervalued compared with its revenues, net income, assets, and cash on hand. They also anticipate opening new stores in the coming months. This growing, profitable, sub $.10 stock should be trading at much higher levels.
CDIV I end with my chart of the day. The last time I had CDIV on the blog it was trading at $.28 a share and I noted how an investment of $1,000 at $.01 would have been worth $28,000. It turns out an investment of $1,000 at $.01 would be worth $57,000 today. Not bad for a few months of watching a stock trade.
KATX - Don't Say You Weren't Warned!
I usually reserve a comment like the one I used in my title for a stock that just fell off the cliff. One that I had told my readers about in advance. KATX, however, is just the opposite. I've been bringing KATX to my readers the last few months. Watching paint dry has been more exciting then watching KATX trade recently, but I just knew it was going to break out and today it finally did.
Just last week I stated:
KATX: I still feel KATX is on the brink of a breakout. A 20-30% break higher is coming and coming soon. That will confirm my short term $.10 target.
I also drew up a fancy chart to validate my view:
You could have been buying up shares at $.05 to $.06 since February in anticipation of KATX's next leg up. The one the Guru has seen coming for some time.
Today KATX closed at $.0675,up 20%, on breakout volume.
My target remains $.10, but that is just my first target. If this is indeed the next leg up I think we break into new highs and could see SRSR type numbers, meaning $.15 - $.20 a share. That represents a 200-300% gain from today's close.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet. First we need to see $.10, which we should in short order.
SPMI - Earnings Results Impress The Guru
SPMI released its annual earnings report today after the bell and posted earnings of $.01 a share excluding a goodwill charge. The company had almost $100k in net income and used cash flows to pay down debt and reduce liabilities.
SPMI closed the trading session at $.085 a share. Here is some of the per share information that I gleaned from today's 10K filing. These are some amazing figures for a sub $1.00 stock:
Revenue: $1.40 a share
Assets: $1.18 a share
Cash: $.065 a share
The company press release about the 10K filing has a run down of 2009 highlights, which you can see at the end of this post. Below are a few of my own and the reasons why this stock could see some more upside in 2010.
SPMI closed the trading session at $.085
- The market cap for SPMI after today's close is just under $600,000.
- Revenues for 2009 were $9.8 million or $1.40 a share
- Total Assets at the end of 2009 $5.9 Million or $1.18 a share
- They ended 2009 with $449k in cash. Cash per share $.065
- Net Income increased to $86,694 in 2009 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $134,801 in 2008 for a total increase in net income of $221,495 year over year.
- They have reduced liabilities by 34% since 2008.
- They plan.. " to use the cash flows provided by operations to open between one and three new stores in 2010 and to enhance our ability to pursue other opportunities to increase our business."
It is quite apparent that SPMI is at the stage where it no longer is reliant upon outside forces to fund their business and growth plans. They have also taken the responsible step of writing off the impairment on the Mr. Sticker acquisition, which accounted for the $(.53) headline number :
Recognizing and accounting for this impairment will only help the bottom line down the road, instead of doing what many companies do and kick the proverbial can down the road.
SPMI's last earning report brought a bevy of buying that took the stock over $.30 a share. With this after hours release I think many investors will have time to look it over and find many positives, just as I did. Considering the value SPMI brings its shareholders on a per share basis, the fact that they grew net income by over $200,000 this year, and the opening of new revenue producing stores, SPMI is an undiscovered penny stock that I can see trending higher over the course of the year.
Add it it your watch list.
Speedemissions, Inc. Reports Fourth Quarter & December 31, 2009 Year End Results
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Speedemissions, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SPMI - News), a leading vehicle emissions testing and safety inspections company with testing stores in Atlanta, Houston, St. Louis and Salt Lake City today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2009.

Tuesday Stocks To Watch - TNXI, EMXC, ETLS, SARO
TNXI has traded down long enough. It is mounting a rally and I think $.15 is the next short term stop.
EMXC this stock is curling up for a big price breakout. $.01 could be seen as soon as tomorrow.
ETLS is back to its old ways. Slow steady accumulation. With the low share count and high insider ownership there is no reason why this stock shouldn't be trading over $.002 a share.
SARO was up again today. I think it could see $.0012 or better before the run is over.
TNXI - The Guru's Buy and Hold Is Ripe For A Rally
Why?
TNXI had over $28 million in revenues in 2009 with a net income of $.04 a share. Considering this stock was recently trading for $.08 a share, to say this stock is undervalued would be quite modest. I do understand the company has some significant debt obligations, but if you take away interest payments the picture gets even rosier.
My point is this: the company has finally turned the corner. When TNXI has finally broken free and paid off its debt the stock will be trading at $2 - $3 a share. Do the math now on the EPS. Using a conservative multiple of 10 for just the 4th quarter result of $.04 a share, TNXI would be a $.40 stock. Factor in another 3 quarters of equal or greater net income numbers and you are looking at a $1.60 stock. Use a multiple of 15, still very conservative and you get price per share of $.60 just on the 4th quarter number, $2.40 if you carry that number through out the year.
The bottom line: this stock is trading well below what it's true value is. By the time TNXI has truly turned the corner this stock will have soared well beyond today's close. Remember this was a $7 a share stock only a few years ago.
TNXI remains a Guru Buy and Hold. Keep it on your watchlist.
EMXC - Breakout Imminent
Tuesday should see continued buying and a possible test of $.01. Remember the book value of these shares, per the company, is $.08. I think investors are just starting to realize the value of this stock.
My weekend chart:
Today's chart:
Sunday, March 28, 2010
Stocks To Watch Monday - EMXC, PGPM, ETLS, THRR
EMXC, closed at $.0049 on Friday. It should get out of the gates strong and finish the holiday shortened week having tested and broken the $.01 mark.
PGPM seems to be consolidating for another test of recent highs. This stock trades in a wide range, keep this is mind if you are looking at taking a position.
ETLS this stock has traded off after a recent burst higher. I expect it to get back on its feet this week with the continued slow buying that we've grown accustomed to.
THRR is on the watch list because I still enjoy watching it trade. Regardless of all the news, fluff, hype, believers, and non-believers, this stock has been an excellent trade more many people. I still feel anyone holding longer than a day will be on the wrong side of the trade going forward. This stock remains a highly liquid, volatile stock that can be utilized to make quick profits.

EMXC - The Guru Expects Big Gains For This Stock In 2010
EMXC had several press releases over the last few months, and appears ready to impress this year. Investors have bumped up the stock with each promising press release, but the gains have yet to stick. I do not think these investors have done their homework about EMXC, which makes this stock a fabulous buying opportunity at these current prices.
The company has posted that their book value alone is $.08 a share. That represents any assets, less liabilities. With the current share structure that book value number equates to over $100 million in assets.
Only a few weeks back the company issued a thorough and promising press release. If they can follow through on these plans then this stock will be trading well over $.01 in short order. I do believe that the recent news and future prospects make this stock one to own in 2010.
Let's cover a few important and value adding aspects of this company.
- They are in the process of uplisting with NASDAQ. If that in itself doesn't get you excited than I don't know what will.
- They have finished preparing their corporate financials through the end of 2009 and they are being reviewed by the company's Corporate Accountant and then the SEC auditors.
- They have prepared a full disclosure information statement, which is being prepared to be filed at their corporate website, at www.pinksheets.com, and the SEC.
- They have prepared numerous other filings for the SEC and Pinksheets that will be filed in the very near term.
- They are currently rebuilding and rebranding all the EMAX Internet sites, including their online store ad media platforms.
- They have retained the SEC auditing services of Bongiovanni & Associates, Inc., http://www.BAI-CPA.com, to prepare the company's financial audits and to help further work towards meeting SEC fully reporting status for up-listing.
- They have retained the services of McMullen Associates LLC, http://www.mcmullenassociates.com, as securities legal counsel for the company. The attorneys at McMullen Associates have over 20 years' experience working with public trading company preparing documents, procedures and filings to meet SEC fully reporting status for up-listing to OTCBB exchanges as a fully reporting company.
- Finally: The company believes the shareholders will be happy in seeing the true value in those dividends when they read the financials, which the company is preparing to present in the very near term.
- And EMAX Finance has invested into the opening of a full-service real estate company in Florida."
I think I have set some reasonable price targets below. Ones that will be attainable considering the modest share structure. One that has remained unchanged the last few years. The lack of dilution with this issue is another positive factor going forward. Also the company has stated that they do not intend to reverse split the shares.
EMXC 3/26/2010 Closing Price : $.0049
2010 Price Targets For EMXC
Short Term Target (Less Than 2 days): $.009

Stocks To Research This Weekend - SARO, RMDM, FOYJ
SARO busted 100% higher on 783 million shares, hitting $.0007 numerous times before settling at $.0006. I'd keep a close eye on this stock Monday morning and would expect some follow through on today's action.
RMDM had some interesting filings come across Pink Sheets today, a share lockdown. Yesterday they issued a share buy back release. I expect this stock to trade above $.0012 in the near term after today's $.0008 close.
FOYJ hit some scanners with some impressive volume and closed up 91%. Let's see what we can find out about this stock this weekend. Are more gains in store next week?
THRR - Due Diligence?
THRR has a supposed offer from some yet unnamed entity, person, alien.... the company has yet to relay this important information so we can only speculate who has the money to buy over 10 billion shares for $.01. This same person is spending millions of dollars on a company, that per its last unaudited quarterly results, lost over $400k and boasts total assets of a little over $400k. How that warrants a 1,000% premium and a purchase price in the millions is beyond me.
With the company losing the equivalent of their entire assets each quarter I'd think it was more likely they'd be filing for bankruptcy protection, not getting bought out.

GBVS - Lawyer pleads guilty in fraud conspiracy, stock manipulation
Lawyer pleads guilty in fraud conspiracy, stock manipulation
Mar. 26 --A Kentucky attorney has pleaded guilty in Tulsa to taking part in a fraud conspiracy that prosecutors say involved the manipulation of publicly traded "penny stocks."
James Reskin , 51, of Louisville also admitted Thursday that he misled investigators for the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Justice during a meeting in Tulsa on March 6, 2008 .
Reskin; Tulsa attorneys George David Gordon and Richard Clark of Tulsa ; Dean Sheptycki of the Bahamas ; and Joshua Wayne Lankford of the Dallas area were indicted under seal on Jan. 15, 2009 .
The charges, which were unsealed Feb. 10, 2009 , alleged a conspiracy in which the defendants purportedly pumped up the stock value of three companies and then dumped the stocks quickly, leaving others to absorb losses.
Gordon and Clark are set for trial on April 5 . Sheptycki and Lankford are yet to make initial appearances in Tulsa federal court.
On Thursday, Reskin stated that from 2005 until late 2006 he entered into a conspiracy with Gordon "and others" to commit securities fraud, wire fraud and money laundering.
Reskin said he became aware in late 2005 that "Gordon and others were attempting to illegally manipulate the stock price" of Global Beverage Solutions , a Tulsa company for which he was doing legal work at the time.
To further that goal, Reskin said he wrote a letter on Sept. 14, 2005 , falsely stating that he had consulted with 26 shareholders of Global who had agreed to remove the company's officers.
As
a result, Reskin claimed Thursday that Clark was installed as president of Global by Gordon.
Also, Reskin said he made two wire transfers from the sale of Global stock in December 2005 in the total amount of $575,000 from his escrow account to an account controlled by Gordon, even though Reskin knew at the time that Gordon was not the seller of the stock.
Reskin said he made false statements in the March 2008 meeting with federal investigators on topics such as possession of a log of stock-related wire transfers, his knowledge of an offshore account used to conceal stock ownership and money, as well as his knowledge of the effect of e-mail and fax "blasts" related to Global stocks.
U.S. District Judge James Payne is tentatively scheduled to sentence Reskin, who is free on bond, on Aug. 25 .

Since that time the stock has post over a 1,000% gain. It has been a remarkeable run for CYCA, but by the looks of today's action the ride might last quite a bit longer. I followed on the coattails of this subcriber and included CYCA in several watch list posts.

CGAQ - Believe The Company Inspired Hype?
Today's CGAQ press release brought significant volume to the stock, the question is....is the buying warranted? Was this press release bona-fide? Would you want to be holding shares of this stock going forward?
I'll be quick to the point. No, maybe, and no.
The press release seems like a company orchestrated promotion. If you want investors to like your financials, then file 10q's and 10k's with the SEC. Don't release a fluffy press release that is lacking substance.
With penny stocks it is all about following the herd and buying the hype. Just be sure you are selling the hype before the herd, or you will get trampled.

Wednesdays Stocks To Watch - CYCA, VIPR, CFSC, THRR
CYCA was up again today. It looks to be getting some good momentum going. Next stop would be $.003 if the buying continues. Keep it on watch.
VIPR what an ugly day. Close to a billion shares traded, record volume for the issue. Someone took the bid and smacked it with a sledge hammer all day. This put a damper on our target, and while I am hopeful for a bounce, I'd wait to see if the selling stops.
CFSC up 525% today on big buying volume. I suspect more gains may be on the way. The stock hit an intra-day high of $.007 before falling back. Considering this stock was recent trading below $.001 I am surprised it held its gains so well. This could imply that the stock is tightly held, meaning any demand for the stock will send it much higher. If this one is not on your watch list I suggest you put it there.
THRR do not think I've changed my view of this stock. With the Conference call tomorrow it will be a stock that sees volatility and volume. This could be a sell the news event. With a $.01 buyout offer approved by the board, this stock should be at $.009 or better..... unless this was all a ploy to get you to buy the stock. Hmmmm.....
AZTC - $.11 to $.0084

THRR - Conference Call Date Set - Thank Goodness
I am salivating at the chance to dissect the contents of this call.
Let's see... the offer is for $.01 a share, why isn't this stock trading at $.0099 a share? It is either the arbitrage play of a lifetime or the company is lying to everyone? Hmmm.
Is that buyer still willing to buy all the billions upon billions of shares of stock for $.01 when there is plenty to be had at $.0012 - $.0017?
You make the call. March 24th at 11am.

KEYWORD: California INDUSTRY KEYWORD: MCT OTC
Tuesday Stocks To Watch - EFLN, TSLI, CYCA, VIPR, GAGI
TSLI posted astrong trading session and looks ready to mount another move higher. With the potential of $20 million in revenue hitting the books on this low share count stock, the upside has yet to be fully price into this stock.
CYCA offered a decent close for shareholders, and could post more gains as the week progresses.
VIPR continues to be a stock of interest and one to watch this week. I do not think $.005 is out of the question short term
GAGI was up almost 40% today. I get a few emails about this stock from time to time. I think it's a buy on the dips.

KATX - Heading Closer To $.10 This Week
The Guru has been following KATX for quite some time. The stock is now ready for its next big move higher.
With Friday's close of $.052 I expect more gains in store for this issue. For those of you patient enough to wait out this stock, then congratulations to you. I believe your wait will be rewarded.
TSLI - Trading Well Below Fair Value Pre-Merger
TSLI is trading well below its future value considering the impending acquisition of Addamo Vineyards. With the acquisition TLSI will be bringing in roughly $20 million per year in revenue. That amounts to $.50 per share, a very impressive figure for a stock that closed trading Friday at $.019 a share.
With TSLI's low share structure a valuation of $.10 - $.15 per share would be a reasonable number. Factor in the lack of investor interest, now is the time to take advantage of this, before the stock gains attention. We want to be buying these stocks before the crowd, not after.
At $.019 TSLI presents a very real investment opportunity, with the potential to pay off handsomely down the road.
These are my targets:
$.05 short term
$.15 long term.
Stocks To Research This Weekend - TSLI, WTCG, TNXI,VIPR, ETLS
I will be quick with these and I would enjoy some feed back on these names:
TSLI acquisition coming will be huge for shareholders.
WTCG the stock tested recent highs and should trade above them next week.
TNXI my new buy and hold, I think anything around this $.10 level will be golden down the road.
VIPR another Guru I told you so. $.0035.
ETLS I started the week off with ETLS at $.0007 and it did not disappoint. I think next week will be even more impressive.
THRR - The Questions You Need To Ask For The Conference Call
- Why would someone buy billions of shares of stock at $.01 when it is being traded at only $.0006 a share?
- How does a company that is losing $400,000+ a quarter get a buy out offer that is over 1,000% more than the current trading price of its stock?
- Why did you reverse split the stock at a ratio of 4000 to 1 two years ago and how did that benefit shareholders?
- After your reverse split the share count was reduced... where did these billions upon billions of shares come from post reverse split? Are you diluting or did you hire Mr. Wizard to create these shares out of thin air?
- Per your last press release you stated that a vote was not needed from shareholders to accept this buy out offer, a shareholder vote is also not required for a reverse split either... right? You can reverse split the stock at your earliest convenience?
- Does this $.01 buyout, if it ever gets done, come after the next 4,000 for 1 reverse split? Or do you have a larger reverse split ratio in mind?
- Can I have the buyers contact information? I have some worthless items I am willing to sell for a few million dollars.

Friday Stocks To Watch - ETLS, TSLI, PGPM, AZTC
ETLS is a stock that continues to impress. Readers had the chance to buy and sell for over a 100% gain so far. I think this run is still getting going. I stick to my .005 short term target. That represents a 300%++ gain from today's close.
TSLI is a stock to accumulate while it remains under the radar. The company issued an 8-K last month about an acquisition, but that has not been press released as of yet. The time to buy these stocks is before everyone knows about them. TSLI, Tapslide, remains cloaked inside a very hot penny stock market.
PGPM I brought you this stock two days ago at $.0005 and it hit $.0014 today. I hope some of you listened to my post. I liked the way it traded today and think another day or two of consolidation will be healthy before it makes its next move higher.
AZTC was on my watch list yesterday as well. The stock closed up again today, and bears watching heading into the weekend.
TSLI - Ripe For The Picking
TSLI issued an 8-K with the SEC late last month that seemed to slip under investors radar. Tapslide (TSLI), according to the 8-K, is looking to get the assets of Addamo Estate Vineyards, http://www.addamovineyards.com. Take a quick peek at the web site and you'll see this is a multi-million dollar operation.
More compelling is the fact that this acquisition is being covered along side NYSE mergers and acquisitions. A popular merger and acquisition site is covering the Addamo Estate Vineyards and Tapslipe acquisition as well as those of Black Stone Group (BX : NYSE) and Deere and Co. (DE : NYSE). Here is the link: http://www.pehub.com/66193/ma-monday-7/ . This is dated March 15th which makes me suspect the deal is imminent.
The coverage of the TSLI/Addamo Vineyards along side big board stocks illustrates the value this merger will have for current shareholders of the stock. Upon release of the completion of the acquisition TSLI will most certainly soar, as shares are revalued to represent the new assets and revenues. The time to buy a stock like TSLI is before the news hits the wires.
Also consider the low share count for this stock. Insiders hold a more than 50% stake in the roughly 40 million shares. Once investors realize the potential, shares will get tough to come by and the price per share will rise significantly.
TSLI closed trade on Thursday at $.011 a share. Once word of this acquisition spreads around the investment community I would not be surprised with a $.03 - $.04 price. If the company press releases the finalization of the acquisition TSLI could break $.05 and move substantially beyond that.
Keep TSLI on your watch list going forward.

Thursdays Stocks To Watch - PGPM, TNXI, ETLS, AZTC
PGPM is a stock the Guru thinks could hit $.001 in the next few days. A break of $.001 would give $.0015 some credence. Let's see increased volume and another +15% day before we start jumping on the bandwagon, although I have a good feeling about this one. I think before all is said and done this stock will trade at $.002 or more. I've been wrong before, just not very often.
TNXI the Guru's brand new Buy and Hold failed to disappoint today. Call me crazy with this stock, but I could see $1 coming in a rather quick and violent fashion. Of course it could pull back like POWN did after if burst up from $.06. It would give everyone an amazing buying opportunity. My point is do not jump the gun. Let the price come to you.
ETLS popped early in the morning before settling down. The continued orderly ascension of this stock is very impressive. Each notch higher makes this stock an even more impressive play going forward.
AZTC this stock has posted a chart we all like to invest in. Imagine grabbing shares in AZTC only a few weeks ago. You'd have made 1,000% on your purchase. Let's see what tomorrow brings.
TNXI - A Guru Buy and Hold - Explanation Part I
I think TNXI could pull a POWN and then some.
Here is one thing to get you excited if you are a TNXI shareholder. This was a $7 stock only a few years back. With this company mounting an impressive turnaround, I expect investor interest to return with a renewed vigor.
PGPM - Could See a Big Jump From The Current Trading Range
PGPM, for the first time in several years, issued some press that appears to have gone unnoticed by most investors.
With a current price of $.0005, I think the recent news, and lack of investor interest presents a great buying opportunity.
I could see this stock trading over $.001 in the coming days. If the company comes through on its March 3rd press and issues its financial results than I would move that target even higher.
I would keep PGPM on your watchlist for the foreseeable future.

THRR - Penny Stock Guru Initiates Procedure For Laughing In An Accelerated Manner
Anyone else laugh the instant they read today's THRR press release? The only difference between today's press release and yesterday's is that they used a thesaurus this time around to make it sound more eloquent. The first line is what really got me going. I have copied and pasted it for you expeditiously:
Thresher CEO Tom Flessner was happy to announce that "as of March 16, 2010 the Board decided to initiate procedures to finalize the sale of the company in an accelerated manner."
How about some more details? $.01 for all the outstanding shares? The buyer must be a real sucker to be buying shares at $.01 when there are billions to be had at $.0025 and below. Calling the offer "exorbitantly admirable " is even more laughable. I think saying the offer is majestically unrealistic would be more appropriate, as long as the theme remains using big words instead of real numbers.
Thresher Industries Inc. Initiates Procedures for Sale PR Newswire "US Press Releases "
HANFORD, Calif , March 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Thresher CEO Tom Flessner was happy to announce that "as of March 16, 2010 the Board decided to initiate procedures to finalize the sale of the company in an accelerated manner."

The proposition was later approved and disclosed preceding the Board of Directors of Thresher - Industries (Pink Sheets: THRR) special meeting. The Board of Directors opinion is that this offer is exorbitantly admirable with a proposed settlement that exceeds the current market price range. Thresher Industries has been advised by their Corporate Attorneys that the approval to act is not necessary by shareholders and that the Board of Directors has in fact been in contact with the majority shareholders and party's have agreed to the offer price of $0.01 for any and all outstanding shares. Thresher would like completion and closing of the deal before April 10, 2010 .
