Before the opening bell, Content Checked Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: CNCK) announced the addition of Dr. Göran Rune Skog to its board of directors. Skog brings more than 35 years of experience in the field of medicine to the Content Checked team, during which time he has specialized in orthopedic medicine, physical medicine, research and surgery, invasive pain management and rehabilitation. He currently serves as the head of the spine treatment unit at the NIMI Hospital in Oslo, Norway, and as the associate professor at Cedarcrest Hospitals in Abuja, Nigeria. Additionally, Skog maintains his own private practice in central Stockholm, Sweden.

“We were determined to find a board member with all of the attributes that Göran embodies and we are proud to welcome such an outstanding individual and leading medical authority to our board,” Kris Finstad, president and chief executive officer of Content Checked, stated in this morning’s news release. “I am confident that Göran is going to make a significant and positive impact on our Company.”

Skog received a bachelor of science in psychology from the University of Stockholm, a bachelor of science in Zoology from the University of Tulsa and a doctor of medicine from Oklahoma State University. Leaning on these qualifications, he has served in a number of high profile positions over the years. Notably, Skog served as the physician for the Swedish National Alpine Ski and Winter Olympic teams, as well as the medical director for the Swedish Ski Areas Organization, Alpine Search & Rescue of Sweden and Sea Search & Rescue of Sweden. He’s currently a member of the board of directors of Active Life Foundation, SEB (Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken).

“I have a long-term interest in nutritional, dietary, medical technology and the process of guiding innovative companies to make a positive impact in people’s lives, hit business milestones and expand into new markets,” Dr. Skog stated in this morning’s news release. “I am excited by what Content Checked has accomplished and I am honored to be joining their board.”

In addition to adding a wealth of medical and nutritional experience to its board of directors, the appointment of Skog represents another step toward Content Checked’s planned uplisting to the NASDAQ exchange. Earlier this month, the company engaged Bonwick Capital Partners LLC as its financial and corporate advisor in an effort to better position itself for uplisting later this fiscal year. Among the corporate governance standards to which Content Checked will be required to adhere in order to qualify for uplisting, the company needs to appoint independent directors to its board. Additional requirements include the engagement of an audit committee and adherence to defined management and officer compensation requirements.

With numerous pundits currently raving about the bullish undercurrent for zinc, as a looming supply shortfall is predicted on the horizon amid ebbing China slowdown fears, it makes a great deal of sense to look at domestic producers in low-risk jurisdictions. Producers who can act as a profit vehicle for investors over the medium- to long-term price appreciation currently projected for this increasingly widely used metal, whose primary industrial consumption comes in the form of being used as an anti-corrosive galvanizing agent for iron and steel coatings. Given the recent closure of the Century mine in Australia by Melbourne-headquartered MMG, Ltd., whose majority shareholder is the state-owned corporation, China Minmetals, as well as big production cutbacks by the likes of Glencore (OTC: GLNCY) and Nyrstar (OTC: NYRSY), overall global production is off by around 10 percent, according to Haywood Securities’ mid-cap base metals guy, Stefan Ioannou.

Increased real-estate activity and infrastructural investment rebounding in China on the back of broad-based credit easing further underscores a supply equation shift that is apparent from the International Lead and Zinc Study Group (ILZSG) data, which shows how inventories went from a surplus of 183k tons at the outset of 2015, to a 60k ton deficit at the end of the year – even as total global inventories fell by 55k tons. Conservative estimates from the likes of JPM and Macquarie Research further confirm this bullish outlook for zinc, with mine output forecasts for 2016 falling 4.5 percent and 3.3 percent, respectively.

All of this throws a bright spotlight on a domestic zinc producer like Star Mountain Resources (OTC: SMRS), whose Balmat Mine is in upstate New York near the St. Lawrence River and the border with Canada. The IG7 report on Balmat (http://dtn.fm/4P3eK) out early this February roundly confirmed initial reserve estimates for the property (which was acquired back in November of 2015), showing some 585k tons of proven and probable reserves at a 9.2 percent grade. Given an estimated initial 2.5-year mine plan haul of some $80.8 million in revenues, as well as a broader 8.5-year mine plan that would consume similar-grade/adjacent reserves, Star Mountain Resources is the very portrait of a small, domestic producer, in an ideal jurisdiction, with the massive sulfide zinc mineralization digs needed to profit off this looming zinc shortage.

The noteworthy commitment to site safety and environmental stewardship for which SMRS is known should help to stave off any potential impediments for the company as it wraps up plans to finish the minimal overhaul needed at Balmat before the onsite mill can be shipping out high grade zinc concentrate to a hungry global market. Described as a low-cost, mechanized operation, with the mine equipment fleet in excellent condition, Star Mountain has every intent to, and seems capable of, actually exceed the planned production rate for Balmat, and SMRS has brought in the heavy guns to make sure its well-timed play pans out with maximum upside, retaining 30-year geological guru Dr. Mark Osterberg as the company’s new president and COO.

Zinc is only about a hundred bucks shy right now of the Capital Economics target price of $2,000 a ton by year’s end, and with the April 19 price around $0.86 a pound, the Haywood Securities per pound number for 2016 of $0.80 being exceeded speaks volumes. Especially when one considers Ioannou’s recent comment to Streetwise Reports’ The Gold Report, where he explained the Haywood Securities projection for 2017 is around $1.00 a pound.

It is generally accepted that the first successful organ transplant was the one performed by Dr. Joseph E. Murray at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital in Boston in 1954. Dr. Murray, who won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1990, and his team transplanted a kidney from one identical twin to another. Later, in 1967, Dr. Christian Bernard, a South African heart surgeon, garnered international acclaim after he performed the first human heart transplant at Groote Schur Hospital in Cape Town. Since then, the field of organ transplantation has grown. Data (http://dtn.fm/QMlg0) published by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, shows that ‘each day, an average of 79 people receive organ transplants’. Some estimates (http://dtn.fm/OgPb3) are even higher. The Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation (MTF) states ‘it is estimated that approximately 600,000 Americans benefit from some form of transplant each year ’.

Yet the same U.S. government data shows that is not enough to satisfy the need and so ‘an average of 22 people die each day waiting for transplants that can’t take place because of the shortage of donated organs’. This is why professionals in the health care industry are increasingly turning to companies like the International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCQB: ISCO) and their regenerative technologies that augment or replace organ transplants.

The International Stem Cell Corporation’s human parthenogenetic stem cell (hpSC) technology holds out a life-saving promise to those with end-stage organ failure in two ways. First, it circumvents the problem that arises when the immune system attempts to reject the transplanted organ, which it perceives as an alien thing. In early transplant operations, medications were administered to suppress the immune system, but such an approach leaves the body, essentially, defenseless against other even minor threats.

The rejection problem arises because embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are heterozygous. i.e., they generally have different forms of genes (alleles) at each genetic position of the paternal and maternal chromosomes. Alleles contain the mechanism that determines between domestic and foreign bodies in the form of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes. ‘Since hESCs are derived from fertilized embryos, they carry the genes of a unique individual, thus the therapeutic cells derived from hESCs will carry alleles that can be recognized as foreign and be rejected by most patients unless they receive immunosuppressive therapy. Such therapy is costly, has significant side effects, and often is disabling in the long term.’

‘In contrast, the hpSCs developed by ISCO are derived from unfertilized eggs (oocytes) that have been shown in peer-reviewed journals to exhibit unlimited proliferation potential and are pluripotent (can become cells from all three germ layers that form a human being). Most significantly, hpSCs can be created in a ‘homozygous’ state in which the alleles, including the HLA alleles, are the same at each genetic position. When these HLA alleles are also found with a high frequency in a population, these ‘HLA-homozygous’ stem cells and their therapeutic derivatives have the potential to be immune-matched to millions of people. For example, ISCO’s first homozygous stem cell line with high-frequency HLA alleles has the potential to be immune-matched to an estimated 75 million people worldwide.’

Back in 2010, ISCO added two world-leading immuno-geneticists to its scientific advisory board to study the immune-matching properties of its human parthenogenetic stem cell technology and the potential for each hpSC-derived therapeutic cell to be an immune match for millions of people. Dr. Hans-Dieter Volk, Professor of Immunology and Chair of the Institute of Medical Immunology and Berlin-Brandenburg Center for Regenerative Therapies (BCRT) at Charité Universitätsmedizin in Berlin, and Dr. Matthias von Herrath, Professor at the La Jolla Institute of Allergy and Immunology at University of San Diego, are both highly regarded immuno-genetics experts internationally.

Second, hpSCs may obviate the need for an organ transplant. ISCO’s hpSCs are similar to human embryonic stem cells in that they have the potential to be differentiated into many different cells in the human body. Thus, they may replace diseased or malfunctioning cells in the liver, the eye, and in the nervous system before a full transplant operation is required.

Earlier this week, Content Checked Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: CNCK) took another great stride toward getting the word out about the tremendous benefits of its SugarChecked app when it was featured in an exclusive segment on Las Vegas’s local Fox affiliate, KVVU. According to data from Nielsen, KVVU is currently one of the top two stations servicing Las Vegas and its surrounding areas, particularly among individuals aged between 25 and 54.

“Now there’s an app out there called SugarChecked,” the presenter stated in the segment. “It is touted as the easiest and most reliable way to help you find the real truth behind the sugar and how much your food contains.”

In recent months, Content Checked’s suite of dietary apps has been featured in a wide variety of publications, including Yahoo! Travel, SheKnows.com, Z Living, Bustle, #LatinaGeeks, Simplemost and SELF, reaching millions of potential customers and gaining invaluable brand recognition. The company has built on this progress through entry into strategic partnerships with synergistic businesses, such as Kitchology, Inc., a mobile platform that provides tailored recipes to consumers with special dietary needs, and Leaner Creamer, the only all-natural powdered coffee creamer that promotes weight loss and appetite suppression.

Earlier this week, Content Checked set the stage to fully capitalize on this increased exposure when it engaged Bonwick Capital Partners LLC as its financial and corporate advisor. In addition to assisting with the company’s financial, corporate and mergers and acquisitions strategies, Bonwick will advise Content Checked on its planned application submission for uplisting to the NASDAQ exchange later this year. Ahead of this planned uplisting, the company will be required to adhere to a number of corporate governance standards outlined by NASDAQ, including the appointment of an auditing committee and independent directors.

In a news release announcing Content Checked’s engagement of Bonwick, Kris Finstad, the company’s president and chief executive officer, stated, “Bonwick Capital has assembled a specialized team of experienced financial and industry professionals who will play an essential role in our overall strategy of increasing shareholder value. Our planned uplisting to NASDAQ will allow us to tap into much broader capital market resources and further solidify our short- and long-term goals of successfully executing our business strategy.”

Content Checked’s revolutionary suite of mobile apps – including ContentChecked, MigraineChecked and SugarChecked – caters to the specific needs of people living with dietary restrictions. To date, the company has created a robust database featuring definitions for more than 70 percent of conventional U.S. food products, enabling it to address the needs of the more than 15 million people across the country suffering from food allergies, as well as the roughly 38 million who suffer from migraines and chronic headaches.

At the forefront of digital commerce technology stands Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTC: ALYI). The company invests in verticals within the digital commerce space that have the potential to transform the global electronic payment infrastructure. Alternet also develops payment technology solutions that offer a wide range of payment channels along with financial technology that centers on digital currency, payment solutions and services, and banking solutions. The company has further expanded its technological interests by strengthening its digital analytics department. Digital analytics allows companies to examine raw data with the purpose of making more informed marketing decisions and is currently one of the fastest growing business industries in the world.

The IDIC forecasts that the “big data technology and services market will grow at 26.4% compound annual growth rate to $41.5 billion through 2018.” The many benefits of using data analytics are becoming clear to businesses worldwide as more and more incorporate this technology into their infrastructures. First, data analytics can predict possible outcomes from altering variables while forecasting the probable consequences of these variables. This technology also monitors current marketing trends so companies can keep pace with their competitors and thus quicken reaction time. Lastly, digital analytics can easily find relationships between different variables which lead to further links and possibilities. Overall, data analytics remains a powerful tool for companies because it allows them to view the interests and dislikes of their customers while staying up to date on market trends.

An example of how data analytics fits in with current needs comes from the recently exposed Panama Papers. Over 11 million documents hacked from a Panamanian law firm were recently revealed that contained illicit information related to offshore accounts of powerful people throughout the world. Journalists needed a way to sift through this impossible amount of information, so they used data analytics, which extracted all text and metadata. This data was then indexed to easily search for names, credit card information, and patterns. These documents show evidence of money laundering, bribery, sanction dodging, tax evasion, and involvement with organized crime. Without data analytics, siphoning through this information would have taken years.

Alternet Systems has been developing and perfecting its own data analytics system. The company offers businesses a cloud based solution that includes predictive analysis, visual tools, and marketing automation. Clients can view data sources across a variety of fields while studying unique marketing trends among audiences and micro segments. The software also generates recommendations. Using Alternet’s software guarantees clients the immediate discovery of new segments and activities of functional areas for better marketing decisions. Alternet Systems intends to continue developing its innovative digital commerce and analytics technology in a world that relies on convenience and reliability.

MissionIR today announces the online availability of its interview with Glenn Sanford, CEO and founder of eXp Realty International Corp. (OTCQB: EXPI), which, as previously announced, is changing its name to eXp World Holdings, Inc. to reflect its achievements and growth initiatives discussed in the interview. The interview can be heard at http://www.QualityStocks.net/interview-expi.php.

EXPI is the holding company for several businesses, including eXp Realty LLC, the Agent-Owned Cloud Brokerage™, a full-service real estate brokerage utilizing a 3D, fully immersive, cloud office environment that provides around-the-clock access to collaborative tools, training, and socialization for real estate brokers and agents.

Sanford begins the interview with further insight into this structure, the company’s broader business strategy in the residential real estate space, and its growing presence in 35 U.S. states and two Canadian provinces.

Much of this growth is largely attributed to the company’s revenue sharing program and innovative virtual platform, which replaces the need for a traditional real estate office. By reducing its bricks and mortar footprint, EXPI is able to share its revenues with agents and brokers who contribute to corporate growth.

As of March 31, 2016, EXPI had grown its agent base to more than 1,100 members, representing 100% agent growth in a single year, along with correlating revenue and cash flow.

“Agents and brokers have a great split, because obviously we don’t have the overhead. But we also pass on the different initiatives – revenue share being one of them, and the other one being a stock ownership initiative … that’s really created a big catalyst for growth,” says Sanford.

Another stimulant for EXPI’s growth is a strong management team. Sanford first describes his extensive background as a long-time entrepreneur before describing the skills and experience of several other powerhouse members of the company’s leadership.

After recapping several of EXPI’s 2015 milestones, Sanford wraps up the interview by discussing the company’s goals for 2016.

“The biggest goal is just really to build infrastructure to support the growth … that’s a lot of people to assimilate in the organization and make part of the culture of the organization, and then all the tools and systems that need to be in place to support all of them,” he says. “If we keep on doing what we’re doing … we should easily end up in excess of 1,800, maybe 2,000 agents this year … if we hit those numbers then we really, in 2017, should be in the 3,500 agent range. If you work that into the revenue side of it … this year we should do in excess of $40 million in revenue … so we’re really excited about the growth.”

A holding company for a number of businesses, eXp World Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: EXPI) operates as a full-source real estate brokerage that provides 24/7 access to its 3D, fully-immersive cloud office environment. The Agent-Owned Cloud Brokerage™ offers collaborative tools, training, and socialization for real estate agents and brokers. The company believes that the most important aspect of any real estate brokerage is its agents and brokers. Therefore, eXp World Holdings offers a place where agents become part owners of the company while building their businesses along with unity, knowledge, and revenue inside the ‘Cloud Office Environment’.

A cloud office environment offers relevancy in a quickly advancing technological world. Real estate consumers have access to more knowledge and information, making them less likely to visit a brick and mortar real estate office. These offices are beginning to diminish as more and more professionals move toward services based online, because they understand that consumers seek easy access to real estate materials. Also, brick and mortar offices have high costs, such as utilities, insurance, rent, and staffing, making cloud-based environments that much more appealing.

Though consumers desire easy and accessible real estate listings, they still need agents, because the process of buying, selling, and finding a home remains an emotional and confusing process. Agents and brokers have valuable insights, knowledge of local markets, and the experience with negotiations. eXp World Holdings understands this, which is why thousands of consumers have already flocked to its resource searching for a perfect platform to start the process. Its agents have the expertise and experience consumers rely upon.

Since technology continues to evolve, eXp World Holdings knows the importance of embracing innovation and progression. The company offers brokers and agents the opportunity of earning equity awards for growth contributions and a revenue sharing program based on the percentage of gross commissions earned by fellow professionals brought into the company. With its business model centering on increasing listings while decreasing overhead costs for agents, eXp Holdings recorded an 84% increase in agent growth and 80% revenue growth in 2015 alone. The company intends on continuing this impressive progression through a technologically forward business strategy that helps consumers and real estate professionals alike.

The renowned physicist Dr. Stephen Hawking, famously said, “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change”, an observation that OurPet’s Company (OTCQX: OPCO) lives by. Earlier this year, the company filed its annual report (10-K) for the financial year ended December 31, 2015, which showed that it is responding to a changing market environment with operational efficiencies and new product innovation.

Net revenues for the 12 months ended December 31, 2015, were $23,819,189, an increase of $1,048,627 (4.6 percent) over revenues from the prior year. This growth resulted from increases in both unit sales and margins.

Net income for 2015 reached $1,336,912, increasing by an astounding 74 percent over net income for 2014. This improved performance showed that OurPet’s Company’s management is taking good care of business. Gross profit margin improved to almost 32% from 30% the previous year, and selling, general and administrative expenses actually declined.

OurPet’s Company’s 10-K also showcased the success of its dual-brand strategy, with the OurPets® brand for the “pet specialty” channel and the Pet Zone® brand for the “grocery, drug, mass” channel. In 2015, sales remained about the same in the “grocery, drug, mass” channel and increased in both the “pet specialty” and “e-commerce” channels by 11.8 percent and 6.3 percent, respectively.

The increased sales ran across many customer types, including distributors, national chains, regional chains and e-commerce retailers. The largest growth in revenue in 2015 came from sales to national chain customers, which increased by approximately $586,000, followed by sales to distributors, which grew by approximately $256,000.

International sales in 2015 were about $2,620,000, around 11 percent of total sales, and fell by approximately $300,000 or 10.3 percent, compared to 2014, mostly due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar.

In 2015, the two largest product categories, comprising 85.9 percent of net sales, were toys and accessories. Both of these categories grew in 2015, with toys and accessories rising by approximately $406,000 (3.6%) and bowls and feeders rising by approximately $938,000 (11.0%). The edibles and consumables category comprised 5.9 percent of sales and decreased by 8.0 percent during 2015, mainly because a value-chain customer discontinued a product. The waste and odor category, which comprised 4.5 percent of sales in 2015, grew by 13.9 percent. The company expects this category to become more important in the coming year, as it has several new products under development, including its new Kitty Potty™ and Switchgrass/Bio Char Natural Litter.

At present, cats trump dogs at OurPet’s Company. The company sells more products for cats (57 percent of total sales) than it does for dogs (41 percent of sales). Another two percent is made up of miscellaneous items. Nevertheless, dog product sales increased at a rate of 11 percent because of higher bowl and feeder sales, as compared to cat product sales, which were up just one percent.

Last month, OurPet’s Company introduced its Intelligent Pet Care™ product line at the Global Pet Expo. Intelligent Pet Care™ products use Bluetooth® technology to communicate information to pet owners’ smartphones about their pets. The company also displayed its Whirling Wiggler™ Spinner Toy, new waste management products, and new designs for its bowl and feeder line.

OurPet’s Company’s intelligent and pro-active approach to the pet care marketplace is a result of its enlightened, well-informed management. The present team is made up of Dr. Steven Tsengas, chairman and chief executive officer; Dean S. Tsengas, chief operating officer, vice president of operations and secretary; Scott R. Mendes, chief financial officer; Kathleen Homyock, vice president of sales and new business development; and Gabriella Chessman, vice president of marketing. Dr. Tsengas is an engineer and inventor who has been elected to the National Inventors Hall of Fame. Under his guidance, OurPet’s Company has developed a portfolio of hundreds of products and nurtured an intellectual property (IP) stockpile of over 160 patents.
