Being the call is end of January, I am not sure what can keep the price up near term ? Seems it may fall when the reality of the forecast hits.  We will see.  It is for the patient investor.  Near term, I cannot see much happening.  The guess is that they guide down numbers and then miss by at least 20% this quarter.  But I have been wrong many times before.  I like BRVO into 2007 and beyond but will be more cautious with any short term money.

Hi,

I think about bailing out of BRAVO - seems like the stocks is slipping towardz the forties, and i dont like that, while there are other opportunities out there...
Any thoughts?

Joozt,

Read the main thread by David Randolph.  It has alot of information.  Good luck.
Just one opinion, do the research

fill_the_gap

It is the trust factor that bothers investors.

They miss 20 percent each quarter, so how can anything be trusted ?

And the CFO and CEO give mixed signals on further dilution, forecast, etc.

It may be a trade into calls, selling right before the call and then evaluating. 
But holding through a call has hurt.  So be careful unless more becomes known.

Just one opinion, do the research

Bravo! Foods Signs Multi-Year Manufacturing Agreement With Jasper Products 

NORTH PALM BEACH, Fla., Jan. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bravo! Foods
International Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: BRVO), a brand development and
marketing company that manufactures, promotes and distributes vitamin-
fortified, flavored milks, announced today that it has signed a multi-year
distribution agreement with Jasper Products, L.L.C. of Joplin, Missouri, one
of only three dairy processors in the United States that has approval of the
United States Food and Drug Administration to produce aseptic shelf-stable
milk in bottles. Bravo! has contracted with Jasper, which has produced its
flavored milks, including Slammers(R), since 2001, for the continued
production of Bravo!'s products through September 2010.
Under the terms of the agreement, the parties have agreed to annual volume
commitments for the ordering and production of Bravo!'s various lines of
shelf-stable, single-serve flavored milk beverages. The scheduled production
commitments with Jasper will be realized on a ramp-up basis, commencing in
April 2006, with the installation of additional processing equipment at
Jasper's Joplin plant. These production commitments will satisfy the agreed
upon supply obligation of Bravo! to Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc. (CCE), under
Bravo!'s Master Distribution Agreement with CCE by the summer of 2006.
To secure the production commitments, as well as the right of first
refusal for Jasper's additional production capacity going forward, Bravo! has
paid a one-time equipment mobilization payment of $2.7 million to Jasper. The
agreement incorporates per unit monetary penalties for both unused capacity by
Bravo! and any production shortfall by Jasper.
Roy Warren, Bravo!'s Chief Executive Officer, said, "The importance of
entering into this agreement with Jasper cannot be overstated. By it, we
satisfy our supply obligations under the CCE Master Distribution Agreement and
move closer to our long-term production goals." Mr. Warren continued,
"Perhaps more important is the continuation of our past relationship with
Jasper -- one that has been invaluable to Bravo! in terms of Jasper's support,
cooperation and faith in our business."

I got a reply e-mail from Roy about the CC date.

Roy said they have not set a date yet but will issue a PR when they do.
And that most likely it will be the last week this month.

So I will continue the plan of buying into any call.  But holding into any call will not happen again.

They also have the presentation Tuesday which may help momentum before the CC.

Nice work, Don ! applaud. 

Added more today in anticipation of a run into the call at the end of the month.
Will probably sell right before the call.  This is a play on the buy the rumor and sell the news again. 

They still have not announced a time and date.
I expect 72-80 range into the call.  Movement beginning when they announce.

We will see.

Just added quite a bit of BRVO here.

It should run up into the end of the month call.

BRVO is reletively predictable about running into a call.
Buying before they announce the time and date.

Some have asked for the CEO e-mail to ask what the time and date will be for the end of month meeting.

Does not hurt to ask.

David,

Thank you for commenting.

It cannot be far from your sale price if you want to re enter without losing.  .

Anyway, I will only trade BRVO until they prove otherwise.

What is proven is that they rise into Conference Calls and then selloff within a range.
And then the process repeats.

Profiting as much as 20 % each time is working well as long as the proven range continues.

And until they do something significant, many traders are playing BRVO this way.

So I will never hold BRVO through a call again after taking a giant hit the last time.

I am not sure what they will say in the meeting.
But it is not what they say, it is what they do that matters.
=======================================

My e-mail correspondence with Roy today and his answer below.

I understand, the release will come shortly. We are excited. Thanks. rGW

Agreed,

Investors in OTC are often spoiled by dates being released a few weeks in advance of an event such as a conference call.  Until you upgrade exchanges, the price will suffer without something to look forward to with OTC investors.

Just an idea as to why the price cannot build a base.
The OTC market is a different animal.  It affects the long and short term investors alike.  Because as you know, a stock under  $ 1.00 takes a different kind of investor.

Your purpose seems to be to sell milk and not worry about this.
I can see the pps potential of BRVO. Building a loyal base is the way to go.   

Missing quarterly expectations and keeping the investors guessing has hurt the price so far.

If a date was announced, it would run up to the date and probably build higher lows and higher highs.  The inverse is true when a date is expected and announced too late.

Not a big deal, it will all work out in the end.

Thank you for listening.
