PWEB? That was a BB scam in 1999. An early-20's kid in Utah started to peddle some home-made software for building retail e-business sites. One of his officers is his little brother, who has no education and whose work experience consists of woodworking. The kid got a company public through a reverse merger with a defunct asphalt company. The stock started trading with a market cap of $100 M, after the Jan. 1999 reverse merger. The kid issued lots of news releases, like this one in the spring of 1999 that appears to predict at least $8.8 M revenue for 1999. pacificwebworks.com It turned out that he actually achieved only $0.3 M revenue for the year, and he burned $2.5 M cash doing it. Got a going-concern qualification from the auditor. There was a big collapse in the stock price, and it dropped off my radar screen. Looks like the stock hasn't disappeared, though. This year it's again trading at prices comparable to when the kid made the news release I mentioned. It's a fine specimen for Roger Neal to tout. Which he began doing on July 11.

Roger Neal's other new client, CCCX, looks like more fun. According to the 10k, the company's business consists of <nutritional supplements, personal care, home and auto, and pest control products , and the husband-and-wife executive team has business experience consisting mostly of MLM stuff. The auditor gave them a going concern qualification. Since Neal took over their PR this month, he's got the CEO signed up for an interview with thewallstreetreporter.com, which he also did for ZERO and PWEB. Two days ago he issued a news release with the boldest of all hype - earnings and revenue projections: Centre Capital Corporation's 12 month Pro Forma Statement of Operations projects $41,588,809 revenue with net after tax income of $12,767,136. That's interesting, because during the last 6 mos. the company had only $221,662 of revenue, according to the 10Q. The projection also appears in an 8-k filed this month. In the 8-k, it says that: Other existing product sales were forecast in the amount of $36,159,750 for the 12 months ended June 30, 2001 due to increased promotional and advertising efforts plus endorsements. Let's see. Neal expects his client to get roughly 8,000% revenue growth from existing products simply by increasing their advertising. Ummm. I sure hope Neal is able to pump this stock, and PWEB, to even more ridiculous valuations. I want to make some more money off of him.
