AARDVARK:
FBNA's management was also told that they own to much of the company and that proper control should be at 30% instead of 65%.
[Excellent justification for imminent stock dump! Use sparingly!]

FBNA has some major acquisitions that they would like to complete in this fiscal year.
[Always bring this up! Every time!]

These target companies are of a size that would require a higher stock price to be taken seriously by the target.
[Excellent set up for other creative justification to follow, such as "the stock price needs to be higher."]

In fact FBNA lost a chance to make a major purchase because their IPO is set at $1.
[See previous note.]

Plus FBNA has been told by other major wall street firms that if their stock was at $5 then they would be able to recomend FBNA to their clients.
[Always, bring up "Major Wall Street Firms.]

Most big wall street firms are NOT allowed to recomend under $5 stocks for compliance reasons.
[See previous note.]

FBNA wants to grow their core business to 250 million ASAP and feel that with proper valuations can do so easily.
[Another excellent reason to justify need for stock price manipulation.]

This is the same company that grew to over 100 million in just a few short days, so I feel confident in managements track record.
[Always exude confidence in closing statement.]
