As of the market close 3/4/21, FORW market cap is $233.8MM. However, according to this tweet from the FORW CEO George Sharp, the value of their Humbl warrants, pre-split, are:



$.19 (market price of Humbl on 1/13/21) - $.159 (profit/“in the black”) = $.031 (presumed cost of FORW warrants per share)

This was pre-split, so with the reverse split, FORW’s 125MM warrants are at a cost of $.124/shr. Assuming the CEO of FORW knows what he’s talking about, the profit from those warrants are now 125,000,000 x (market price of Humbl - cost per Humbl warrant), or 125,000,000 x ($3.15 - $.124) = $378.3MM. That doesn’t even consider the what Sharp said about every Humbl $.01 increase being a $.0113 increase for FORW.

However, FORW only has a current market cap of $233.4MM = 440,324,326 shares outstanding x $.53/share price. Why? They can’t possibly have $145MM in debt - 3 months ago they weren’t worth more than $30MM as an entire company.

FORW’s press release a couple months ago scheduled a Zoom call for their shareholder update and annual financial report on 1/12/21. On 1/4/21 they rescheduled the annual report and Zoom calm for 2/16/21. However, as part of a share offering and shareholder dilution on 2/09/21, Mr Sharp announced the Zoom meeting and annual report would be delayed again to 3/05/21. Mr Sharp commented:

quote:

Mr. Sharp commented, “While I realize that some will be disappointed in this postponement of the shareholder call, the Board of Directors determined that delaying it was prudent in light of some ongoing developments. I am sure that the shareholders will appreciate the need for the delay once the discussion takes place. I don’t anticipate that there will be any further postponements.”


Unfortunately, Mr Sharp delayed the shareholder update meeting and financial report again yesterday. The meeting is now scheduled for 3/11/21. Interested persons can register by clicking on this “humble” image:

Seriously, that image was take directly off the FORW website and should work. Mr Sharp also took his Twitter private around the time he changed the date of the update/meeting once again.

So, the question is why does FORW continue to trade at such a significant discount to the presumed profit of their Humbl warrants? There is simply no way a company like FORW, whose corporate address of 1022 Nevada Hwy, Boulder Cit, NV takes you to this PostNet solution:



could have anywhere near the debt necessary to drag on its market cap so much. Even if you consider it’s corporate history:

quote:

Formerly known as: Guard Dog, Inc. until 1-2020
FSBO Media Holdings, Inc. until 9-2008 Discover Capital Holdings Corp. until 11-2005 Sunlite Technologies Corp. until 11-2001 Hospitality Concepts, Inc. to 1-1990


Their most recent financials don’t suggest they have anywhere close to the debt necessary to explain the market cap gap vs the warrant values.

So, can money be made on the illogical gap between FORW and Humbl? Should FORW really be trading for 62% higher, should TSNPD (Humbl) be trading for 62% lower, or somewhere in between?

FORW got crushed yesterday. I dumped my shares of that on the last big pop. It Made me way more than TSNP on that huge runup but it doesn’t track correctly in either direction. Been in and out a few times. Overall I put about 57% more in my pocket than TSNP but since the reverse split it only goes up at 1/3 and drops by 1/2.

I wouldn’t expect it to in the short term just given the high volatility, but I think I’d add to FORW over Humbl if I was a longer term believer.

I would agree but nothing about this market is logical right now and the volitiity of TSNP makes FORW even worse

This whole thing is pretty fascinating to watch play out. It seems like George Sharp will either end up in handcuffs or on a dais next to Elon Musk as a couple of giant tech CEOs. The canyon of possibilities between those extremes seems less likely than one of those two things occurring.

Are those warrants currently redeemable or is there a specific redemption date?

Press release doesn’t seem to indicate any lock up period. They can be exercised for up to 2 years from the purchase date, which was 4Q2020

Out of curiosity, do you have any DD on stocks you recommend? You only seem to love negativity. I’d like to know your positive thoughts on stocks or funds if you have any.

I’ve said BA looks attractive vs airlines. If airlines are priced properly, you’d expect BA to rally soon.

Dude, this isn’t healthy. I’m concerned about your mental stability and this stock.

Why? It’s legitimate research and information.

In a normal world, yes.

Of course in reality you are doing this trying to win an Internet argument and would rather be right than other people making money.

This is not your battle, yet here you are fighting. That is the unhealthy part. Go outside and get some fresh air.

This. You’ve spent hours arguing about a stock that you seemingly don’t care about, and now this comprehensive post. You say it’s for DD and that any stock could be a buy, but you’ve clearly already done your DD and determined it’s not a buy, so why won’t you let this go?

You are obsessing over these 2 stocks because you got in an internet fight with a random internet posted named AncientTiger and it’s clearly eating at you until you somehow prove you are right. Well AT isn’t here anymore. You aren’t buying this stock right now. And those who did have already done so. So frankly it just comes across as a little obsessive that you’re still so concerned about this.

You realize this is a thread where I’ve laid out a potential bull case for FORW, one of AT’s picks, right?
