OurPet’s Company’s (OPCO) Continued Product Innovation Sets Stage for another Strong Showing at SuperZoo, Solid FY16 Results

The World Pet Association’s version of E3 started this week at Las Vegas’s Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, giving companies in the pet industry the chance to get their brands in front of over 15,000 of the sector’s most influential buyers. As one of the pet industry’s biggest trade shows, SuperZoo 2016, opens its doors, it makes sense to look back at the success OurPet’s Company (OTCQX: OPCO) had at the show last year. Winning “Best New Cat Product” at the 2015 SuperZoo for its OurPets® Catty Whack® helped see OurPet’s Company to record Q4 and FY15 financial results. This ingenious little platform, with a scratch pad on top and six holes around the perimeter from which a fast-moving feather wand randomly darts out, also features the company’s patented Electronic RealMouse® sound, brilliantly simulating the hunt, and feeding/satisfying the cat’s natural instincts.

The instant rapport with consumers established by this and other similarly well-designed products has endeared the company to “pet parent” consumers, allowing OurPet’s Company direct access to premium consumer demographics within the sector. A firm legal grasp on its growing portfolio of over 160 issued or pending patents and the ability to captivate consumers with elegant, high-quality, extremely clever designs, spanning everything from feeders and waterers to waste disposal solutions and toys, has cemented the company’s retail brand presence and the positioning of its ever-evolving array of products. This proven ability by OPCO to lock-in brand positioning with tightly-held IP and designs is a big part of the valuation story for the company moving forward.

Given its success last year, it is little wonder that the company is doubling down at this year’s SuperZoo with the rollout of its OurPets® Switchgrass Natural Cat Litter™ with BioChar, an all-natural and fully biodegradable litter that speaks directly to the core of the high-end consumer’s consciousness. As was pointed out late last year by Netherlands-based Innova Market Insights (http://nnw.fm/wVA1Q), consumers want simple products with increased ingredient transparency and a back-to-basics approach that is focused on key positioning targets like organic and GMO-free. This is especially true when it comes to luxury and premium consumers who buy OurPet’s Company brand high-end feeder bowls and other offerings, like its new Intelligent Pet Care™ line of smart products, which have the ability to monitor pet behavior via the IntelligentPetLink™ smartphone app.

Years of product R&D went into this new cat litter and the superbly effective/sustainable combination of pine wood chips, which have undergone thermochemical decomposition (pyrolysis) to produce activated, non-marking carbon (biochar), with North American switchgrass speaks volumes about how well OPCO understands its target demos. Not only does the biochar process sequester CO2 while utilizing produced gasses as a clean-burning fuel, the biochar has proven to be extremely effective at soaking up moisture and odor. By this same token, switchgrass is a non-feedstock biomass typically used for applications like flood control, making it another ultra-green ingredient choice that both delivers performance and speaks directly to savvy high-end consumers about the product’s sustainability, and the company’s forward vectors.

Investors should keep an ear to the ground for news out about OurPet’s Company coming out of SuperZoo 2016, because if the latest product rollout is any indication, this could be another banner year for OPCO.

Star Mountain Resources (SMRS) Primed to Capitalize on Rising Zinc Prices

Zinc prices have been exploding in recent months, up nearly 45% since the beginning of 2016 (http://nnw.fm/BlPv5), following what is seen by many as a classic example of shrinking supply and growing demand. In a recent article on the tightening zinc market in the UK (http://nnw.fm/h30pP), Reuters columnist Andy Home points out that “The International Lead and Zinc Study Group (ILZSG), for instance, estimates that mine output outside of China contracted by 9.5 percent in the first quarter”, and “Investors have been drawn in by a narrative of mine closures and a resulting tightening of the raw materials supply chain.”

On the demand side, emerging economies, as well as the associated need for cars and trucks, continue to support the need for zinc. Zinc is the fourth most widely-consumed metal in the world, and it is an important alloy used in the production of automobiles and related products, as well as for zinc undercoating. A recent article on manufacturing in the Indian state of West Bengal, for example, emphasized the increasing government focus on growing the region’s automobile manufacturing (http://nnw.fm/4OuXX).

For Star Mountain Resources, Inc. (OTC: SMRS), a micro-cap mining company focused on acquiring mineral properties and turning them into producing mines, the timing couldn’t be better. The company is currently engaged in restarting its Balmat zinc mining operation in St. Lawrence County, New York, which it acquired from HudBay Minerals in late 2015. It’s a move designed to propel Star Mountain from a junior explorer to an active producer, with a revenue stream expected in the latter part of 2016.

The Balmat/St. Lawrence Zinc Mine has a long and successful record, producing in excess of 30 million tons of ore with a grading of 8.6% zinc. It’s also fully permitted, complying with all current Federal and State mining regulations, and in line with Star Mountain’s stated dedication to the health and safety of employees, as well as local communities, and associated environmental responsibilities.

Singlepoint, Inc. (SING) Announces Initiative Designed to Capitalize on Pokémon Go Phenomenon

Before the opening bell, Singlepoint, Inc. (OTC: SING) announced plans to cash in on the Pokémon Go craze by developing a mobile app designed to bring like-minded players together. The company has already initiated discussions with programmers under contract to create a new app that will reward users for performing a number of geo-targeted actions while playing Pokémon Go. Additionally, Singlepoint’s companion app will look to increase the social interactions among gamers by introducing a comprehensive messaging platform that enables communication through global, team and friend-based channels. By combining these complementary features, Singlepoint aims to take advantage of the current mobile spectacle while spurring sustainable financial growth in the coming months.

“We are perfectly aligned in the mobile app space to take advantage of the current phenomenon that is Pokémon Go, along with similar scenarios in the gaming world across the board moving forward,” Greg Lambrecht, chief executive officer of Singlepoint, stated in a news release. “We are to the point where technology has demonstrated the ability for gaming to bring players to the outdoors: engaging, exploring and with a camaraderie among players like never before. We intend to capitalize on this in a big way.”

Since its launch in early July, Niantic’s Pokémon Go has blazed new trails in the mobile space. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) confirmed that the app was downloaded more times during its first week on the App Store than any other app in history, and, as of July 18, it boasted an active user base of roughly 21 million in the United States alone. From a revenue standpoint, Pokémon Go currently generates roughly $1.6 million in daily revenue from the App Store, and similar results are to be expected from Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) Play. The game has also proven extremely successful in converting free users into paid users. According to a report by Needham and Company, Pokémon Go’s ratio of paid users to total users is roughly 10 times that of Candy Crush, the record-setting title from Activision Blizzard’s (NASDAQ: ATVI) King Digital, which generated more than $1 billion in revenue during both 2013 and 2014.

Pokémon Go has also flexed its digital muscle in the investment community. Nintendo (OTC: NTDOY) stock more than doubled in the wake of the game’s monumental release, despite the fact that the gaming giant didn’t make Pokémon Go and has somewhat limited upside from its success.

For Singlepoint, attempting to capitalize on the success of Pokémon Go is the next step in the company’s ongoing rollup acquisition initiative. Singlepoint leveraged this strategy in May when it acquired an interest in DraftFury, which is widely recognized as the first cash flow positive daily fantasy sports enterprise. Look for the company to build on the momentum offered by this acquisition in the coming weeks as it targets promising firms in the mobile app space, particularly those relating to the massive popularity of Pokémon Go.

Monaker Group (MKGI) is Exploring the Travel Industry’s New World of Alternative Lodging Rentals

At the dawn of the sixteenth century, who in Europe would have thought that another continent existed? Not many, it seemed. The Florentine explorer, Amerigo Vespucci, after whom the continent is named, coined the term Mundus Novus (New World) in a letter to a scion of the Medici family. In that missive, Vespucci set out his supposition that the lands encountered to the west were not the eastern bounds of Asia but an unknown continent. His revelations, when published, stirred Europe with an energy and excitement not seen since the Crusades.

Today, there is a similar buzz in the wanderlust industry. This time, the undiscovered continent is the vast expanse of private properties that have the potential to enter the alternative lodging rentals market, and with the well-positioned portfolio of online travel agencies (OTAs) offered by Monaker Group, Inc. (OTCQB: MKGI), the modern explorer can explore this new world and globetrot to his or her heart’s content.

Great things have small beginnings. According to this feature (http://nnw.fm/TCs3f), the seed of the alternative lodging rentals market in the U.S. was planted when David and Lynn Clouse founded VRBO (Vacation Rentals By Owner) in 1996. The difficulties the couple encountered in trying to rent out their ski condo in Colorado made them realize that others would be experiencing similar challenges. VRBO was a huge success. In 10 years, it was listing about 65,000 vacation properties. Its sparkle of success caught the eye of HomeAway.com, which snapped it up in 2006. In turn, last year, HomeAway.com was acquired by Expedia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EXPE) for $3.9 billion.

This trend of big fishes eating smaller fishes is a sure sign that the alternative lodging rentals sea is spreading. Predictions of its growth are truly astonishing. A recent report from Research and Markets (RAM), titled ‘Global Vacation Rental Market 2015-2019’ (http://nnw.fm/0SMzI), estimates that the market ‘will reach $169.7 billion by 2019’. At present, the global industry has a market size of about $100 billion, with the U.S. accounting for approximately one-quarter of that. That means the industry is expected to grow by almost 70 percent over the next four years.

Growth is likely to be greatest in Europe and North America, since these regions harbor widespread awareness of the vacation rental concept. The RAM report cites a number of factors for the upcoming boom:

“The entry of new technologically oriented start-ups and higher interest in vacation rentals among travelers is one of the reasons for market growth. Travelers are more inclined to using business intelligence software and data mining tools to harness their data to improve their decision-making. Also, price optimization by utilizing revenue management software is gaining popularity in the market.”

Monaker Group and its subsidiaries have amassed vacation home inventory with the aim of becoming one of the world’s largest online marketplaces for the alternative lodging rental industry. Its flagship online marketplace, NextTrip.com, offers over one million listings in Europe, Asia, South America and the United States with links to 115 websites in 16 languages. The NextTrip platform earns fees in two ways. Fees may be paid by property owners and managers as subscription amounts for an annual period. In addition, fees may be paid on a performance basis. Under such an arrangement, properties are listed without initial charge and a commission is paid when the property is booked.

At present, about 100,000 listings are subscription-based. Monaker is currently encouraging owners and managers to convert to the performance-based format. The company believes this format offers greater transparency and reduces the risk incurred by owners and managers. Monaker will also benefit from the performance-based arrangement since ‘no-charge’ listings should increase total inventory. In addition, commission charges will undoubtedly reflect the added benefit of reduced risk provided to property owners.

Laguna Blends, Inc. (CSE: LAG) (LB6A.F) (OTC: LAGBF) Positioning Itself for Multi-Industry Growth

Laguna Blends, Inc. (CSE: LAG) (FSE: LB6A.F) (OTC: LAGBF), the network marketing company focused on the nutritional health benefits of hemp, has positioned itself strategically to grow within a multitude of markets across the U.S. and Canada. The main markets currently using hemp in their products include health foods, functional foods, natural body care and cosmetics, and veterinary markets. Although Laguna is set to grow within the hemp market, through the commercialization of its current products, the company is also tapping into the coffee and health markets.

Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages across the world. With more than two million cups of coffee being consumed on a daily basis, it is no wonder that LAGBF thought it an appropriate market when it launched its protein coffee: Caffe, made up of whey and hemp protein. Aside from being one of the world’s favored beverages, coffee is also the second most traded commodity worldwide, and the single cup serving market has continued to grow every year. This steady growth enables Laguna’s affiliates to sell a globally popular product, but with the added benefits of hemp.

The wellness-health industry often has blurred lines among its consumers. It’s a market that focuses on the overall physical and mental well-being of a person, not just on curing an illness. This industry encompasses the ongoing maintenance and improvement of one’s health. In order to enter into the health market, Laguna integrated itself into the protein industry with Pro369, an infused-blend functional beverage made of HempOmega®, hemp protein, and ginseng. This formula comes in four flavors and can be mixed with drinks, allowing consumers to boost their omegas 3 and 6 while introducing essential amino acids and ‘good’ fatty acids into their diets.

Laguna’s quest has not stopped there. Most recently, the company announced positive results from its clinical trial data of Cannaceuticals’ CBD facial serum. Laguna has also signed a non-binding letter-of-intent with CannaCeuticals of California (“Canna”) in order for both parties to mutually benefit from the business opportunities involved in the cannabidiol skin care industry. According to MarketResearch.com (http://nnw.fm/D7Lgp), the U.S. skincare industry is expected to reach $10.7 billion by 2018. Not only this, MarketResearch.com also found that one of the main driving forces for this growth will be the demand for natural and organic products. As a result, Laguna will be able to enter yet another industry within the health market: skincare.

In a recent news release, Stuart Grey, CEO and founder of Laguna Blends, Inc., had this to say: “Canna has spent a tremendous amount of time and financial resources to create what we believe is the highest quality CBD skin care line available on the market today. By combining the known benefits of CBD’s into a skin care product, we anticipate that Laguna is poised to become a direct sales leader in the skincare industry. By offering the Cannaceuticals skin care line of products to our affiliates, the Company anticipates an increase in product sales and recruitment of new affiliates.”

eXp World Holdings, Inc. (EXPI) Adds Russ Cofano to Management Team

Earlier today, eXp World Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: EXPI) announced the addition of industry veteran Russ Cofano to its management team. Cofano will serve as EXPI’s chief strategy officer and general counsel moving forward.

“I have been looking for ‘the next great opportunity’ within the industry, and I’m certain that I’ve found that opportunity at eXp,” Cofano stated in this morning’s news release. “Unlike other new entrants, eXp is redefining the brokerage model of the future from within. Glenn Sanford has assembled a fantastic team and I’m excited to join them and use my various industry experiences to help the company chart its course of success.”

In total, Cofano brings more than 25 years of industry experience to the EXPI team. In recent years, he has served as senior vice president of industry relations for MOVE, Inc., operator of a network of real estate websites that attracts more than 30 million monthly visitors, including REALTOR.com®. Cofano’s duties in this role included developing strategy and business relationships with leading organizations within the real estate industry, as well as multiple listing services (MLS) and technology firms. In addition to his work with MOVE, Inc., Cofano has also served as chief executive officer of the Missouri REALTORS®, the largest trade association in the state of Missouri, and as vice president and general counsel for John L. Scott Real Estate, which was consistently ranked among the largest real estate brokerages in the country.

“Russ brings a wealth of experience and industry knowledge to the Company from multiple perspectives,” Glenn Sanford, founder and chief executive officer of EXPI, added in the news release. “We’re fortunate to be able to add Russ to our team and believe he will have an immediate and lasting impact on the Company as we continue to grow.”

EXPI has continued to build on its success in expanding the reach of its Agent-Owned Cloud Brokerage™ in recent weeks. In mid-July, the company launched eXp Realty in New Jersey, bringing its total national presence to 43 states and the District of Columbia. eXp Realty is also operational in Alberta, Canada. Additionally, the company is now listed in more than 105 unique MLS, and its network includes more than 1,400 real estate professionals, an increase of 62 percent from the beginning of 2016.

This nationwide growth is particularly intriguing when studying EXPI’s most recent financial results. In the first quarter of 2016, the company recorded revenues of $7.1 million, an increase of 107 percent from the previous year. This total correlated with a 106 percent year-over-year increase in agent count in its real estate division.

Momentous Entertainment Group, Inc. (MMEG) Video Content Streaming Deal with Poolworks Germany Social Network is an Industry Template

The deal with 10 million-plus subscriber Poolworks Germany is a perfect fit for an acquisitive and already diversified entertainment and direct response marketing company like Momentous Entertainment Group, Inc. (OTC: MMEG). Momentous has an operational footprint spanning unique content production for documentary, film and reality TV, as well as live music events, adult contemporary and faith-based music, and even covers film finance/distribution, and direct response TV marketing. Laying the groundwork for a vibrant synergy longer-term, the July 25 announcement of a binding agreement with this Berlin-based developer of the widely successful social networking platforms for (mostly college) students across Europe, StudiVZ and MeinVZ, represents a solid revenue engine for MMEG.

One of the big valuation gripes by investors about social networking operators in general has always been the absence of clear revenue generation pipeline solutions in the business model. It has always been network first, content and capital later (build it and they will come). Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) might be the most notorious case, with its massive user base and seemingly unimpeachable status as a new cultural norm, combined with an inability to really harness the revenue generation potential of that user base.

Twitter has continued to go the ad route and has had some success in doing so, but it is becoming increasingly obvious to many sector operators that content is indeed still king, and meaningful impressions are driven by original, high-quality video/image content. In order to carve off an ever larger slice of the social network ad spend pie alone, which is on track to hit nearly $36 billion next year (or 16 percent of total global digital ad spend) according to eMarketer analysts, network proprietors and all businesses that use those social networks to engage their customers will be forced to channel high quality and/or original content at users. Symbiosis is required between networks, advertisers and content providers in order to make the chemical equation balance.

Poolworks is an interesting case, as StudiVZ and MeinVZ are more like a Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) geared toward students, with its core user base in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The platform has seen some bleed in recent years, as have all entrenched social networks, given the continual rise of new entities and other instant messaging environments like Yahoo’s (NASDAQ: YHOO) Flickr, Facebook-acquired Instagram, or sites such as Pinterest and Snapchat. However, Poolworks’ tight rapport with a choice demographic and its core user base being in these highly sought after European markets make it ideal pipeline for a company like Momentous Entertainment Group.

MMEG will funnel Hollywood-quality film and TV via a branded, streaming, end-to-end “internet TV” over-the-top (OTT) content platform, functionally akin to Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) or Amazon Prime (NASDAQ: AMZN) streaming. The numerous shared revenue streams enabled by the deal will help to foster a strong relationship between the two companies, coming from sources ranging from ad sales and transactional VOD (video on demand), to monthly subscription fees via the company’s own SVOD (subscription video on demand) service, which looks like it will function in much the same way as Amazon Prime membership in that it will grant subscribers unfettered access to premium streaming content. The deal is also a rapid development vector for the branded SVOD implementation itself, and MMEG intends to take the service worldwide into the aforementioned $36 billion social network ad spend ecosystem.
