WRIT Media Group, Inc. (WRIT) – A Digital Media Company for the Masses

WRIT Media Group, Inc. is a holding company growing its operations within the digital media content industry. The corporation is spreading its reach in this business via two branches. It is fully engaged in content creation via its subsidiary Front Row Networks and in retro video gaming via two other divisions, Amiga Games and Retro Infinity.

Incorporated in 2007, WRIT Media began life as the Writers’ Group Film Corporation. In the beginning, the company produced films, television programs and entertainment programs for diverse media formats then, in February 2011, the California-based company acquired Front Row Networks and, in August 2013, Amiga Games. By creating a synergy with these subsidiaries, WRIT Media has been able to benefit from the increasing demand for interactive digital content and alternative mobile and theatrical content to transform itself into a digital media company. Under the company’s new structure:

• Front Row Networks provides production, distribution and financing of live concerts, music documentaries and family programs for both theatrical and ancillary distribution.

• Meanwhile, the “retro” video gaming division, comprised of Amiga Games and Retro Infinity (another acquisition), publishes classic video games for the latest technological devices (e.g. smartphone, mobile and TV set-top devices) and for a growing audience interested in such games.

From social media campaigns to crowd funding, WRIT Media is employing innovative approaches to bring additional attention to its mobile gaming products and to reinforce its focus on expanding within the digital media industry. With the backing of its managers, who have 100 years of combined industry experience, such inventiveness has helped the company achieve significant milestones, including a $10 million equity line of financing and the acquisition of Amiga Games in 2013.

Latitude 360, Inc. (LATX) Utilizing Proven Marketing Tool to Promote Increased Customer Loyalty

Despite heavy competition from home consoles and mobile gaming systems, the market for combined restaurant/entertainment venues has continued to thrive in recent years. According to a report by IBISWorld, the arcade, food and entertainment complexes industry has experienced consistent growth over the past five years, accounting for approximately $2 billion in domestic revenue in 2014. Latitude 360, Inc. (OTCQB: LATX), through its chain of award-winning upscale dining and entertainment locations, is capitalizing on this industry growth while laying the groundwork for aggressive national expansion.

Latitude’s current portfolio includes three locations in strong markets across the United States – including Indianapolis, Indiana; Jacksonville, FL; and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In the first quarter of 2015, the company leveraged the marketability of these locations to record a 19 percent year-over-year increase in gross sales. In particular, Latitude had tremendous success in selling specialized membership cards, surpassing 5,000 ‘360x Club’ memberships since the start of the program in the summer of 2014.

In June, Latitude cleared the way for the continued growth of its membership program by teaming with leading consumer management platform Clutch to upgrade the club’s backbone technology. These upgrades are expected to allow the company to more effectively encourage customer loyalty, in addition to serving as an immediate source of added revenue. Industry leaders, including Dave & Buster’s Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: PLAY), utilize similar programs to promote repeat visits.

“We’re excited to partner with Clutch to integrate its advanced technology and provide streamlined, cross-channel experiences that deliver valuable entertainment benefits and rewards to our members,” Brent W. Brown, chief executive officer of Latitude, stated in a news release. “Clutch… [has] taken our concept to the next level by providing our guests with exceptional value while driving revenue and trips to our venue.”

The company’s current membership program is split into three unique tiers providing varying levels of benefits based on membership fees. The free ‘VIP’ loyalty program, also known as the ‘Green Membership’, offers redeemable points for purchases made in any of Latitude’s locations. However, benefits are greatly increased for members of the company’s fee-based ‘360x Club’. These members, which can choose between ‘Blue Membership’ and ‘Black Membership’ programs, enjoy access to monthly benefits worth $150 and $300, respectively.

Through the continued development and refinement of its membership club, Latitude is taking significant strides toward enhancing customer loyalty and increasing its market share. As the company continues to expand its network of restaurant/entertainment venues, it is in a strong strategic position to capitalize on the favorable conditions of the restaurant industry while promoting sustainable returns moving forward.

Well Power, Inc. (WPWR) Gearing Up to Turn Natural Gas Waste into Opportunity

Gas flaring is a fairly efficient method of burning impurities found in raw natural gas and carbon dioxide, but without the proper equipment in place, much of the wasted fossil fuel is expelled directly into the atmosphere – resulting in billions of wasted dollars and detriment to the surrounding environment.

The National Oceanic Administration Association (NOAA) estimates that gas flares pump 400 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere worldwide each year, adversely impacting local populations of human and wildlife, and often resulting in loss of livelihood and severe health issues.

For Houston-based Well Power, Inc., the environmental and economic obstacles are more of an opportunity than a problem. Through a strategic licensing agreement, Well Power has the rights to Texas, along with the first right of refusal on the other U.S. states, to a new technology solution designed to process waste natural gas into “clean power” and engineered fuels. Based on proprietary technology, these Micro Refinery Units (MRU) are mobile, high-yield and can be deployed with minimum capital expenditure.

The MRUs, currently in development, will provide the opportunity to turn a wasted resource into a product of value while at the same time enabling wider access to energy, improved environmental conditions, and economic development for local populations where gas flaring is prevalent – such as North Dakota. By focusing on eliminating legacy flaring and minimizing new flaring, Well Power has an opportunity to assume a vital role in the continual for sustainable resource development and energy efficiency.

Well Power also intends to offer its technology along with full-service engineering, design, construction, modular fabrication, maintenance and construction management services to clients in the upstream areas of exploration and production.

Development of the product is ongoing, with the first MRU expected in the near future.

On the Move Systems (OMVS) Sees Strong Market Potential for Proposed Shared Economy Courier Service

On the Move Systems reports that after conducting its own market research, it finds that a shared economy courier service offers clear and distinct advantages over companies built on more traditional business models. The company says these findings empower its proposed service, for which the company is now actively scouting possible locations.

“We’ve found several compelling stats that lead us to believe a shared economy courier service would prosper in the right situation,” OMVS CEO Robert Wilson stated in the news release. “For example, such a service would have a tremendous competitive advantage thanks to lower capital and labor costs compared to someone like FedEx or a local ‘hot-shot’ company. We’d have a flexible workforce driving their own vehicles, eliminating the need for any brick and mortar facilities and dramatically cutting overhead.”

Taking advantage of lower overhead, OMVS says it could offer competitive rates, and with a flexible workforce available at a moment’s notice, the new shared economy courier service could also provide faster deliveries than traditional companies. With an online, on-demand service, OMVS would avoid the need to open and operate costly call centers or drop-off locations, as well as the hiring of ground and administrative staff, or loading crews. This would free OMVS from incurring debt, which is an issue for many traditional courier companies.

In recent years, courier service revenues have been steadily climbing, up nearly 15 percent to nearly $95 billion in 2014 from $80 billion in 2009. A survey of courier companies reported most enjoyed double-digit revenue growth in 2014 with expectations for similar results this year. Market analysts peg the courier industry as a $216 billion market overall.

The Aristocrat Group Corp. (ASCC) Canadian Distributor Launches RWB Vodka Marketing Campaign

The Aristocrat Group Group this week made a significant advance in its international expansion of distribution when the company’s joint venture partner in Canada, Westcoast Spirits Company, Ltd., began its marketing campaign to promote RWB Ultra-Premium Handcrafted Vodka in British Columbia.

Obtaining Canadian distribution has been a priority for ASCC since RWB Vodka’s debut. In late 2013, ASCC began its partnership with Westcoast Spirits to capitalize on market growth in a nation where vodka is the most popular distilled spirit category. On par with its distribution initiatives, ASCC announced last week that its first Canadian shipment of its flagship spirit would arrive in Vancouver, one of Canada’s most important markets for distilled spirits.

“The Westcoast Spirits Company has already begun reaching out to buyers in British Columbia about stocking our product,” ASCC CEO Robert Federowicz stated in the news release. “We believe our potential for growth in the Canadian marketplace is huge. RWB Vodka is one of the only spirits in the country approved for ‘gluten-free’ labeling, and that’s going to make our product stand out from the pack.”

The recipient of 17 tasting awards over the past two years, ASCC celebrates the GMO-free RWB Ultra-Premium Handcrafted Vodka as one of the most highly decorated American vodkas in the distilled spirits marketplace. ASCC is currently in the midst of a major expansion behind the continued success of RWB, as well as the impending debut of Big Box Vodka, an ultra-premium bag-in-box distilled spirit. Earlier this month, ASCC announced that it expanded its distribution network to include the state of Louisiana.

Arch Therapeutics, Inc. (ARTH) Preparing to Initiate Human Clinical Trials for Innovative Hemostatic Device

Arch Therapeutics is a medical device company developing a novel approach to stopping bleeding and controlling leaking during surgery and trauma care. The company’s leading product candidate, the AC5 Surgical Hemostatic Device™, is being designed to achieve hemostasis in minimally invasive and open surgical procedures, effectively making surgery faster and safer for patients. Unlike currently available products, AC5 has been shown to promptly stop bleeding by conforming to irregular wound geometry, and, with a completely transparent construction, it allows surgeons to maintain a clear field of vision directly into a wound without hampering future healing.

In recent months, Arch has made considerable progress in the development of its promising hemostatic device. In April, the company announced the results of a study designed to compare the effectiveness of AC5 against currently marketed hemostats. Arch’s device demonstrated an average time to hemostasis of significantly less than 30 seconds, while the commercially-available gelatin-thrombin hemostat took an average of more than 200 percent longer. In June, the company built on these results when it received favorable data from a preclinical toxicity test indicating that AC5 was well-tolerated among test subjects.

“These results present another snapshot of promising data for AC5,” Dr. Terrence Norchi, president and chief executive officer of Arch, stated in a news release. “We are continuing to study the characteristics, safety and performance of AC5 in preclinical studies as we prepare to start our human clinical trial next quarter.”

In an effort to fund its upcoming clinical studies, Arch recently completed a private placement that is expected to provide more than $3 million of additional capital after related expenses. With this added flexibility, the company will look to continue marching toward the eventual commercialization of AC5 following the completion of its impending human trials.

When commercialized, AC5 will give Arch improved access to the rapidly growth market for minimally invasive surgery (MIS). According to a report by Photonics, the global market for MIS is expected to reach $50.6 billion by 2019, up from just $25 billion in 2012. AC5 is ideal for this market because of it leaves no sticky or glue-like residue, enabling for improved precision during both MIS and open surgical procedures, as well as faster recovery times for patients.

Moving forward, Arch will continue toward the future commercialization of its innovative device. For prospective shareholders, this progress, along with the vast commercial potential of AC5 in a selection of thriving medical markets, makes the company an intriguing investment opportunity in the months to come.

Wisdom Homes of America, Inc. (WOFA) CEO Featured in Exclusive QualityStocks Interview

QualityStocks today announces the availability of a new audio interview with Jim Pakulis, Chief Executive Officer of Wisdom Homes of America, Inc. (OTCQB: WOFA). The interview can be heard at www.QualityStocks.net/interview-wofa.php.

Pakulis first explains the company’s business model as an owner and operator of manufactured home retail centers headquartered in Tyler, Texas, before detailing its improving financial performance in its first full year of operations.

The CEO then discusses WOFA’s trajectory as the Company seeks to achieve more than $4 million in revenues for 2015 and continued growth beyond, driven by three different existing or planned revenue streams: manufactured home retail centers; subdivisions; and mortgage options.

The interview then moves on to the company’s background in technology and why Pakulis moved its operations into the highly opportunistic manufactured housing industry.

“The number of homebuyers purchasing manufactured homes since 2010 is increasing roughly 10% per year. As of 2014 there was about 62,000 manufactured homebuyers in the U.S. That represents $4.1 billion in homes sold … in the U.S,” he says. “Since the financial debacle there were fewer retailers in the retail space. However, on the other side of the equation, the houses that are being manufactured at the factories are second-to-none. They’re as beautiful as stick-built houses today. So the image people may have of the mobile home of 20 years ago should be completely wiped away. It is truly a brand new day in the manufactured housing industry.”

Pakulis also details the background of WOFA President Brent Nelms, and how his experience fits into the broader company vision. Moving ahead, WOFA seeks to open up to 30 additional manufactured home retail centers in the next five years, and in the near term is getting more involved in subdivisions and land/home packages.

“We would like to continue to provide land/home packages … for the second half of 2015 and actually all throughout 2016 … we want to get more heavily involved in the subdivisions and as time continues to go on, we want to start creating small communities …,” says Pakulis.

Referencing WOFA’s consistently paced news releases, Pakulis wraps up the interview with optimism in the company’s progress and initiatives for the future.

“At the granular level, this is an example of the direction we’re heading. We’re expanding. We’re expanding methodically, smartly — but we’re in expansion mode, absolutely,” he says.

Comstock Mining, Inc. (LODE) Cuts Costs, Records Improved Gross Margins in Second Quarter 2015

Comstock Mining (NYSE MKT: LODE) is a Nevada-based gold and silver mining company with extensive, contiguous property in the historic Comstock and Silver City mining districts. Additionally, the company is an emerging leader in sustainable, responsible mining practices – including concurrent and accelerated reclamations, soil sampling, voluntary air monitoring, cultural asset protection and historical restorations. In 2012, LODE completed infrastructure construction and initiated production at its Comstock property, leveraging the largest known repository of geological data on the region in order to achieve maximized stockholder value.

In recent months, LODE has continued to make considerable production progress in the region, promoting strong financial results. Despite gold prices falling nearly 18 percent over the past year, the company achieved mining revenue of $5.4 million in the second quarter of 2015, which was just an 11 percent year-over-year decrease. In order to offset the decline in revenue, LODE successfully decreased the costs associated with mining operations by 42 percent from the previous year, helping the company achieve an impressive gross margin of more than 41 percent for the period while demonstrating the immense value of its experienced management team.

Moving forward, LODE is turning its attention toward its Lucerne underground drilling and development project. The company recently completed extensive geological development and modeling through the use of previously collected drilling data and historic underground mining maps, allowing it to locate a definitive underground development target that presents significant opportunity for immediate exploration. LODE plans to partner with American Mine and Tunneling LLC and American Drilling Company, Inc. to commence development of underground access to the site in the coming weeks.

“Our goals for this year are minimizing operating costs and expanding the Lucerne exploration and development activities,” Corrado De Gasperis, chief executive officer of LODE, stated in a news release. “We expect to be cash positive from operations for the full year 2015, while transitioning our mining activities during the third quarter and initiating underground development.”

For prospective shareholders, LODE’s recent financial growth – despite slumping commodity prices – demonstrates the tremendous potential for the company when gold prices begin to rebound. Look for LODE to make strong progress toward the development of its Lucerne project in the months to come, providing a platform for continued market growth for the foreseeable future.
