The ticker was stuck in the $0.0013 to $0.0016 range and the dismal volumes weren&#8217;t doing much to help it move in the right direction. All in all, nobody seemed to care about<strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong>. But was this all that surprising?<\/p>\n<p>Truth be told, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong> didn&#8217;t look like the most appealing investment opportunity out there. After all, some people still remember the sour taste they were left with when they fell for the $500 thousand Victory Mark pump and saw more than 90% of their investments go up in smoke in a matter of less than a month.<\/p>\n<p>The history of paid promotions has certainly left its mark on the company credibility and on November 7, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong> took another hit on that front when the SEC issued a Cease and Desist order against the company because of a violation of some regulations. <\/p>\n<p>To top it all off, the business isn&#8217;t exactly flourishing. In fact, the company&#8217;s state at the end of May was pretty terrible. Here&#8217;s a snapshot of the figures as found in the latest 10-Q:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>cash: $45 thousand<\/li>\n<li>current assets: $132 thousand<\/li>\n<li>current liabilities: $2.5 million<\/li>\n<li>quarterly revenues: $6,457<\/li>\n<li>quarterly net loss: $5 million<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So,<strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong> didn&#8217;t really have much going for it and the lack of interest was hardly surprising. At the beginning of last week, however, we saw some serious movement around the stock.<\/p>\n<p>On November 24, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong> recorded a dollar volume of almost $480 thousand and gained a total of 43%. The ticker closed that session at $0.0023 per share and remained pretty much flat during the next one although trading was once again pretty active.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for the sudden spike is not too easy to define, but willingly or not, the company tried to keep the fire going by announcing that Benny Powell, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong>&#8216;s CEO, will host a live shareholder video report after the closing bell on December 4.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, this didn&#8217;t help much. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong> lost around 17% during the pre-Thanksgiving session and on Friday, it wiped out another 10%. It&#8217;s currently sitting at $0.0017 per share which is pretty close to where it was before last week&#8217;s sudden and inexplicable jump.<\/p>\n<p>So, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a> proved to us that it&#8217;s not the best performing stock in Pennyland. But that&#8217;s where the same question pops up for the second time: &ldquo;<em>Was this all that surprising?<\/em>&rdquo;.<\/p>\n<p>If you take a closer look at the latest report, you&#8217;ll see that the company has been burdened with quite a lot of toxic debt and the resulting dilution is clearly putting enormous pressure on the stock. <strong>During the three months ended May 31<\/strong>, for example, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong> issued a total of <strong>1,202,602,616 shares of common stock<\/strong> in order to satisfy <strong>$666,180 worth of convertible notes<\/strong> which means that the average conversion price stands at just <strong>$0.0005 per share<\/strong>. The Subsequent Events section tells us that between June 4 and July 11, a further <strong>$148,574 worth of debt<\/strong> was turned into <strong>190,919,396 shares of common stock<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>There were plenty of toxic notes still outstanding on May 31 and several 8-K forms from the last few months show that some more have been issued. The dilution is unlikely to stop anytime soon and only time can tell us if <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=REDG\">REDG<\/a><\/strong> is capable of withstanding the pressure. So far, however, it has done nothing to show us that this is indeed the case.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A couple of weeks ago, Red Giant Entertainment Inc (OTCMKTS:REDG)&#8217;s stock wasn&#8217;t in a particularly good shape.
