The pumps
The promotional outfits are unfazed by the recent price momentum and they are still busy sending the promotional emails. Recently Valmie announced that it is going to be present in the Unmanned Systems 2015 event and requested potential acquisition candidates to get in touch with the management team so that they can discuss future associations. However, it doesn’t seem to have any impact on investors and there is every reason for it.
The performance
Valmie when was trading at more than $3 a share, its market capitalization stood around $180 million mark. The shareholders at that time were expected strong financial numbers from the quarterly report for the period ended February 28.

The company recorded no revenue since inception, and the quarterly net loss came at $135,320.
The red flag

Recently, the company converted $383,927 worth of debt into 3.8 million shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.10 per share. The financials and the conversion clearly indicate the problems with the company.
