Local.com aussichtsreich

zurücbezahlt - bei Local Corp geht es um eine Wandelschuldverschreibung in der Höhe von sage und aschreibe fünf Millionen Dollar.

Möglichkeit 1: Am weitaus häufigsten ist in der Realität, dass man einen neuen Kredit aufnimmt und damit den alten Kredit tilgt, wenn man nicht gerade in einer schrumpfenden Branche arbeitet.

Das könnte im Fall von Local Corp ein Bankdarlehen sein, eine normale Schuldverschreibung (die in USA sehr viel üblicher sind als bei uns) oder wiederum eine Wandelschuldverschreibung. Alle Möglichkeiten stehen Local Coro offen, übrigens auch ein Bankkredit, der dann aber u.U. teuer sein könnte als der bisherige.


Möglichkeit 2: Eine weitere Möglichkeit wäre die Rückzahlung aus der vorhandenen Cash. Rein rechnerisch fehlen hier, wenn man den Kassenbestand vom 30.9. heranzieht, gerade einmal 700.000 Dollar, um die 5 Millionen abzullösen. Dass noch einmal 7,4 Milllionen an Cash Flow fließen wie in Q2/2014 und Q3/2014, also dem halben Jahr vor dem 30.9., glaube ich nicht, aber es würde auch schon ein Zehntel davon reichen, um die 5 Millionen zu erreichen. Allerdings wird man sich auch nicht völlig blank machen, denn ich vermute einmal, dass man den Kassenbestand nicht unter 3 Millionen absinken lässt.

Möglichkeit 3: Man könnte sich Eigenkapital über die Ausgabe von neuen Aktien beschaffen - momentan wäre dazu die Ausgabe von 7 Millionen Aktien erforderlich, um die Schuld ausschließlich durch Eigenkapital abzulösen, was die Aktienzahl von 23 Mililionen auf 30 Millionen ansteigen ließe.

Möglichkeit 4: Man könnte Vermögensgegenstände monetarisieren, wozu sich hervorragend Patente eignen.

unterbewerteste Nasdaq-Aktie, denn 16 Millionen Marktkapitalisierung sind z.B. bei diesen Daten extrem absurd:

Publishers: 3 billion search queries monthly

Owned and Operates: 42 million queries monthly and 17million unique users monthly

nQuery: 10 million queries monthly, 26 million mobile subscribers
Soon to = 200M+ global monthly searches

zumindest - und wohl auch längerfristig - die beste Lösung sein dürfte, ist meines Erachtens leicht zu erkennen. Vorausgesetzt allerdings, dass man aus Gründen der Eile nicht zu große Abstriche machen muss.

“We have identified hundreds of websites and applications that we believe infringe upon this patent and believe there are likely thousands more. We have set a clear course to begin the process of licensing this patent and expect to continue to report the results of these monetization efforts with greater frequency. Overall, we currently believe that a conservative estimate of potential future licensing fees that could be generated from this patent is $100 million. We believe we are well-positioned to explore the monetization of our other patent families as well, including our pay-per-call patents.”

Mit dieser Aussage, die zudem an die SEC gefilt wurde, hat man den Kopf enorm aus dem Fenster gestreckt. Wenn da aber auch nur eine oder zwei Millionen zustande kämen, wären zusammen mit den am 30.9.2014 vorhandenen 4,3 Millionen in der Kasse die 5,0 Millionen Tilgung wohl kaum ein Problem, zumal man dann auch die Kassenhaltung kleiner halten könnte, weil das auf weitere Lizenzzuflüsse hindeuten würde.

Financial monetization of patents only started  

 
The financial monetization of patents has only started by one (the oldest) patent of 13 patents. And by the first trial by hundreds or thousands, who hurt this patent of Local Corp. we saw a very big success for Local Corp: A payment of $700,000 for Local Corp from Fry’s

But this $700,000 will never standing alone – take a look at the speech of the CEO as the settlement was published, some weeks ago.

Long term value through Innovation

• Expanding reach with the expected launch of nQueryTM solution with a top five global carrier

• Launched our advanced traffic quality solution nTegrityTM

• Building and monetizing our Local audience with proprietary traffic quality tools

nQuery is already powering millions of user searches per month and is expected to grow significantly with the onboarding of new partners.

We also continue to explore new ways to monetize our proprietary assets including our Krillion data ingestion and localization technology. We believe the value of Krillion is that it seamless ingests normalizes and localizes various types of data and presents relevant content across multiple channels in customer use cases. The most recent use case was a launch of new ad formats and where-to-buy solutions for web, social and mobile in the shopping space. We look forward to discussing this more in the future

Intend to continue making significant investments in initiatives to diversify our revenue sources and promote our future growth "As we continue to diversify our technologies and traffic sources, we remain focused on technology and advertising offerings that will improve the experience for our end users, and allow our network and other third party partners to enhance their service offerings and lower their costs. While we are still very focused on the local search industry, we believe there are additional opportunities in technology and advertising that we and our customers can benefit from, while diversifying our revenue sources.

"We believe the consumer shift to mobile devices presents a tremendous opportunity for us. Today, consumers are using their mobile devices more than ever before to search for local products and services.

We believe that Local can become the technology engine which powers third party apps and sites that seek to provide on-the-go mobile consumers with the local business, product, and service information they want, when they need it, along their path from discovery to decision. If this happens, we believe we will be in a better position to control our financial future by having direct relationships with retailers and brands and as a result we expect to be able to reduce our reliance on third party advertisers.

In addition, we believe that any wide adoption of the Local technology platform would result in access to an immense amount of data about retailers, manufacturers, and consumers alike. We believe this could further evolve Local's platform into a location-based data play, complete with highly valuable consumer behavior trends, price history by category and other valuable information. We believe we are in the early stages of this evolution in consumer search and we believe we are well positioned to take advantage of it."

inside von SEC und Finra meines Erachtens noch keine Beine gemacht.

Aber nichts ist ja bekanntlich unmöglich.

aber die werden unter der Decke gehalten:

"Mitchell says the SEC has never made public the results of its investigations of the naked short selling of Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley or Goldman Sachs, the big banks that collapsed or nearly collapsed during the financial crisis. The complaint also points to the massive violations of Reg SHO committed by UBS Securities and Credit Suisse Securities, which became public in 2011 when the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) released its settlements with those two banks."

Why the management of Local Corp don’t accuse the market makers, naked shortsellers and their criminal brokers and the sleeping and grass smoking helpers inside of SEC and Finra is clear – Local Corp must be well-positioned to repay the low amount of 5 million convertible debt in Apri 2015 and does not need the offering of new shares or a new convertible obligation.

Manipulation for shares of Local Corp begins every trading day at 9.30 am sharp with very few shares and continues on all day. It has been going on not for months but years with absolutely and exactly same pattern. Local Corps management is equally at fault for allowing this to happen continuously. Daily chart for this security is a living proof of manipulation. Even though small number shares are traded the manipulator use sophisticated tricks and continuously keep dumping few shares in order to keep price lower. Happens all day along and if stock managed to come up some, manipulator brings it down near the close. I have analysed all this statistically. Why the manamgent of Local Corp had not decided to file a complaint with SEC can have only one reason: Local Corp must be well-positioned to repay the low amount of 5 million convertible debt in April 2015 and does not need the offering of new shares or a new convertible obligation.
