$BBIG Most complicated web of warrants I've ever untangled. This took a little while😂 Hopefully this helps others understand how this worked. This only covers Hudson Bay; placement agents and BHP are separate, but relatively minor.

@ZashGlobal
recognize $BBIG cash advances as capital contributions to the ZVV partnership? BBIG shareholders have a minority economic interest, yet they've absorbed all of the dilution. That would better recognize the intention to merge last year IMO.
$BBIG I held my tongue when the 13G came out the other week, not enough info to support speculation. Now that the DEF14A is out, it sheds a lot of light on the situation. (1/)
Nice list of the companies "fighting naked shorts." Here's how much they've diluted year-to-date: median 80%, average 1323%! Some are in the process of going bankrupt despite that dilution. Defending them is pure ignorance.

This good boy had a seizure at 2 AM last night, scared the hell out of us. Tests came back in normal ranges, so all we can do is keep living our best lives, and hope it was a one-off. Off-leash run by the river with his sister 👌
I'm on Twitter to talk about stocks - not about why I'm talking about stock X or stock Y. I don't have ulterior motives, but that's not an argument I can settle. If sharing info that clashes with a bull or bear thesis bothers anyone, my posts are not for those people.
$TTOO Groundhog day - you know what I'm saying $TRKA! Twitter loves Dunning-Kruger effect, though. Pro tip: if you want a stock that won't R/S, try spending more than $1 👌
So $BBIG is valuing ZASH's debt at $0 (not forgiven, but worthless,) yet want to give ZASH 144M shares to acquire them and quash the debt 👎 PZAJ debt similar deal, except Vinco would be credited most of that debt towards acquiring them.
$CEI desperately needs an update on O/S and outstanding Antilles Series C shares. Today's 8-K only marks the end of a source of dilution I (and I suspect most others) didn't even account for - the measurement period for Discover's conversions earlier this year was still open.

The floor on the Series G was also already $0.20. Assuming the third tranche weren't redeemed by 9/30, that could mean we see the $25M cash as an asset, without the convertibles being a liability. In other words, a $25M boost to shareholders equity.
$MULN CEO Michery was awarded 45M shares for signing an agreement to pay Watergen to put drinking water fountains in their vehicles. A very literal case of dilution 🤣
$BBIG Looks like Farnsworth wants the company to pay 100% (or more) of acquisition costs for A360, but only receive 51% stake in the partnership that will acquire it. Sound familiar, sound fair?
$CEI Y'all are asking about these Series C again? Here's the math. Just swap in yday's $0.3301 VWAP, and voila - you'll find there are 37.4m shares underlying the remaining 270 Series C. Number increases if new VWAP lows are seen. (1/3)
$CEI The wild thing about this non-compliance is it dates back 4-5 years. The company regained compliance in '19 by mis-classifying their toxic convertibles as temporary equity until called out on it in 2021, and forced to re-state everything dating back to 3/31/2019. (1/2)
#NakedShortWar
weekend update: $HLBZ has dumped 62M shares in less than 3 weeks. Palella's running lower on ammunition; only 40M until he runs out. Not for nothing, his proposed reverse split will free up more room to dilute.
Per 12/26 agreement, for it to proceed, $CEI needs Antilles to sign off on significant limitations to Series C dilution. I doubt that happens, but doesn't matter what I think. If they do sign off, and agreement's considered material, there should be an 8-k by Monday.
$MULN Nice change of record date Michery, you scumbag. Changed it so he could vote the free shares he got for equipping the cars with water fountains or whatever BS "milestone" it was this time. Also waited for his hedge fund pals to exercise warrants into 65M extra votes.
$OPGN So damn sneaky! Issued warrants at discount in May - required shareholder approval, which fell through in September - stock pumped ~2000% - have investor pay extra to retroactively negate the original discount - issue new warrants at $0.34 🤑
$GNS so Hamilton filed to sell 4.7M shares when the stock was $0.99, PR'd that he'd loan the company up to $4M convertible at terms of pending offering, wound up only loaning $1M, which can now convert into 2.86M shares plus 5.71M warrants at $0.35.
$200,000,000,000 invested in $NVDA in 1999 would have made you a quadrillionaire today.

$CEI Some context, since this is making the rounds a bit. This was from January. I still have no doubt that Doris is motivated to complete the merger. But the delays suggest something is still preventing it. I think stockholders equity is the issue. (1/2)
$OCTO have burned $1.9M in the last 6 weeks, but they expect to burn less than $2.4M in the next 12+ months, but they need to raise additional capital to grow at a time that isn't conducive to raising capital? Something's not adding up...
$XELA It's official, Nasdaq is spineless. If the public interest were to be served through the delisting of any company, it would be XELA. Instead, Nasdaq made an exception. The NT-10K today reiterated the issues. Very clear timeframe for everyone on this R/S, though.
$SMFL It's important to check insider and lockup details on an

, but that's the last of the concerns here. This one's special. Only 1.44m shares sold in the IPO - that sounds like a really low float, right? So why did it crash while trading 9m+ shares in two days? 🧵
$FFIE A cool negative 5300% margins. Only a disaster like this could have the run it did. It required failing to disclose some extremely material disclosures, but it was still an incredible run.
(2/2) With the implications of falling price on Series C conversion rate, and no announcement of the third tranche of Series G shares being redeemed by 9/30, CEI is well overdue for an update again. Looking forward to CEI & VKIN's 10-Q's due in a couple weeks.
$TPST Buddy got his exercise price locked in at the highest close in 2 years 😂 A cool 40X higher than it would've been if he received them the day before.
$TYDE Walk through this deal. Original deal was $33.33m in notes, convertible into 3.333m shares @ $10/share. They've now used $22m of the $33.33m to buy back $22m worth of notes, leaving $11.33m. Conversion price has been dropped to $1.06/share. (1/)
Zash gets ~38% of combined $BBIG company in this deal (144M shares.) Think about it this way - if they made the agreement in February '21, BBIG would have only needed to issue Zash 12M shares for that ownership split. Due to delays, BBIG was diluted 12x, Zash was not.
@BBIGshares
mind explaining how you authorized preferred shares in the first place? There were >233M $BBIG voting shares outstanding when Rod Vanderbilt declared there were none.

$CEI Delisting after all this time kind of caught me off guard tbh, that stock has been like a cockroach. NYSE Amex low price delistings aren't exactly etched in stone though, it could probably come back after an R/S.
$XELA PRE14A for R/S after their Nasdaq hearing suggests they still have a path to compliance IMO. And that Nasdaq's cumulative split ratio rule has no teeth. This sets up maybe the most absurd Nasdaq R/S scenario since TOPS' 2017.
$CEI $VKIN How the Doris chapter began, years ago. Viking didn't want to lose a deposit and risk foreclosure on their main O&G assets, so they signed a deal with the devil. CEI needed to buy something to boost equity, or face delisting. (1/2)
$LQR Maybe this is why they need to raise cash for the 2nd time since IPO three months ago. New management agreement with their CEO pays him $480K annual salary + 10% of gross revenues! That will make a dent in their 16% gross margins...
$MULN Fresh conversions👀 132M shares converted @ $0.303, but check out the (approximate) value applicable to cashless exercise of these 244M warrants. That's ~0.9 shares/warrant, so ~220M free shares, bringing the net cost for 2/9 conversion down to ~$0.11.
$LQR A director's brother acquired an 8% stake 10/16 (apparently from the 10/13 offering priced @ $0.19.) That same day, they drop a PR and the stock has its best day ever with a high of $0.46. By the time he filed his 13G, he sold everything. What a lucky guy!
$BETS If you want to understand how they could have diluted 3B shares since last update, just run these numbers using $0.0049 VWAP from 12/22. [184.6 Class E Warrants] * [$0.13 initial exercise price / $0.0049 low VWAP] / [70% * $0.0049 low VWAP] = 6 billion shares.
@BuyingFDs
@MrZackMorris
The court docs showed he held CEI from < $0.50 all the way to $4.75, and only sold when it stopped him out around $3. Which was consistent with his tweets.
$MCOM These numbers are impossible, and would defeat the whole idea of doing an R/S for compliance. So ask yourself: why are they proposing up to 1:100 ratio, and how will they overcome the issue of having too low of float if they do?
$CEI Forget if or when an R/S will happen, I would suggest reaching out to the company to point out they should ensure to increase par value ($0.001) by the split ratio IF they do an R/S. Huge implications on Series C floor price if they split without increasing it.
Major efforts to force this vote through IMO. It's not just an increase to authorized shares. The most important proposal is the preferred shares - if that passes, they can issue blank check shares with extreme voting power to force future votes through without retail 😈 (9/9)
$HLBZ the scammiest element of this vote went over my head at first, and I don't see anyone else talking about it. HLBZ has two series of shares - Class A, and Class B. CEO Palella is the sole Class B shareholder, with 14.2M shares. (1/)
Remember when 1:100 R/S's were rare, even extreme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. $MULN 1:100 (their third R/S this year,) $GMBL 1:400, $SIDU 1:100, $NXU 1:150, $AVTX 1:240, in a span of just over a week.
So I won't waste thoughts or breath on people who want to argue my motives as opposed to the content of my posts (constructive arguments always welcome.) People lobbing accusations will be blocked - they can enjoy their echo chamber, and I'll focus on discussions of value.
There's a big difference between an "at-the-market offering" (ATM) and an offering that's "priced at-the-market." An ATM offering isn't fixed in size (up to the amount registered) or price, and they might never sell any shares. 🧵

$NVOS 35 publicized mentions of 4 non-dilutive funding sources over the last 15 months, by my count. Also by my count, the company's received 0 dollars from them to date. Is this not ridiculous?

@In_GENIO_MEX
Thanks for bringing up another fun rabbit-hole to dive down! You can see the authorized preferred shares were noted at 30m as of Sep. 30 last year, but then down to 0 as of Dec. 31 (this is from 10-Q and 10-K, respectively.) We can trace this back. (1/)
I need someone to help me with this, $BBIG is asking on the Proxy to authorize 30M of preferred shares as they said we have none, but in the state of Nevada registry it says they already have 30M of preferred shares since 2020. WTF?
$BBIG How Hudson Bay probably played this $TYDE spinoff disaster. If you've followed these guys much on BBIG or elsewhere, they generally don't hang onto shares or pre-funded warrants for long. Example: $INPX (1/)
