Its happened to a number of stocks I have owned or followed.

On one hand, its not good, on the other, if being public costs them $200k per year and not being public adds $200k to their profitibility then it might overcome the liquidity issue.

But, how much liquidity do these small stocks have anyway ?

Not much.

Regarding MHCO, I added a little at just over $2 recently.
(Very small amount and a small position for me)

The CEO recently exercized an option at $2.625. I dont think he would do that if he thought the stock was going to $1 !

Also, the company bought a big block from a director with health problems for $3.50.

MHCO is a value stock and they had a pretty good turnaround.

The way I see it, they could sell the thing in a few years at $5-7 and that would be our liquidity.

HGPI is trying to do it. EDIN did it. HURC tried and failed. ANII is doing it via a reverse split.

There are more examples. It appears this is the risk of owning such small stocks.

If management & the board are above board then I can see it as a positive for shareholders in the long run.

Of course, thats just assuming that the company earns $200k more per year every year.
