http://www.otcmarkets.com/otciq/ajax/showNews...=923743814
Fort Wayne, Indiana –June 30,2014 - Freedom Energy Holdings, Inc. (Pink Sheets: FDMF.PK) CEO, Brian Kistler, today released the following letter to shareholders:
As I prepared to attend the Cannabis Summit at the Denver Convention Center, I must admit it was with some hesitation not really knowing what to expect. Those close to me know that I am not one to participate in any of the mind altering activities or the promotion of such activities. The use of Alcohol, tobacco and Cannabis all fall into the same category from my personal point of view, there may be some good things from its use, but when it is misused the devastation that follows is much of the time life changing in a destructive way and it is the misuse of such products is how I feel strongly enough about to try to do our part in the education and dissemination of facts regarding the use of Medical Marijuana. I think it is only fair to make mention that Prescription drug abuse kills a person every 19 minutes. This statistic is from the center for disease control and prevention (CDC). As of January 2014 there has not been 1 overdose related death attributed to cannabis (CDC).
Let me state clearly, that just putting the word “Medical” in the name should not lower the expectations, but in fact raise the standards. The deregulation is not the push but may be the first step. The buzz words being used are Decriminalize and Tax. Decriminalizing will save States and Federal Government enormous amounts of money and allow the unfettered research. Taxing will then bring money to the state and federal budgets while spending less. The devastation relating to the cannabis and families is usually related to an individual or family member serving jail or prison time for possession or trafficking. I am very happy to report that it was very clear and apparent upon first arrival at the Summit the overwhelming theme was professionalism and great expectations. The hall was lined with Vendor’s booths. Not “weed”, but with technology and equipment, that would have looked at home in any other industry’s summit.
The Medical Cannabis industry has moved from the basements and garages. The processing units for extraction of the oils and different components, being used in the wide variety of different products and methods of use, are very expensive and scientific. This alone will assist in controlling the entry into the production of Medical Cannabis. Only what is produced in a very controlled and monitored environment will eventually make it to the medical products. And this will not be a hobby operation any longer. The curtain has been pulled back and now the power players are openly coming to the party. We are excited and proud to be in this space, of providing education and information, where a multitude of individuals can now find potential relief by the legal use of medical cannabis/marijuana when pharmaceutical drugs are not providing satisfactory results. Although much research is still needed the side effects of cannabis are currently known to be far less than the multitude of legal disclaimers that are attached to all prescription drugs.
How does all of this pertain to Freedom Energy Holdings, and more importantly its shareholders? Let me say again that it was a very eye opening experience for Rob Panek (CTO) and me. As we introduced ourselves to the different vendors to learn about the product or services being offered, it was very apparent that no one was coming at the industry in the same manner we were. There was a great interest in the Global Medical Marijuana Forum. All of the handouts we had with us were taken. This was very encouraging to see the level of interest in our desire to provide a friendly and centralized location that one could go to in order to obtain the most current and screened information. I am absolutely convinced that with our shareholders effort and assistance we can make www.globalmedicalmarijuanaforum.com the place to go for the most current and best information. So please show your support and join our forum and talk to others in the forum of your experience and concerns.
Secondly we also found that our relationship with Launch TV is going to be a huge advantage to our shareholders. The interest in the GMMF site was great, but when we mentioned the access to Launch TV and a channel dedicated to Cannabis Industry, eyes really lit up and the conversations took a higher level of interest. I am pleased to report

that Rob and Maureen are already working on plans of how to bring GMMF and LTV into a closer working relationship so that each can exploit the strengths and benefits of each medium for the other.
Thirdly, the level of professionalism in the breakout sessions we each attended gave us collectively great insight as to the current state of the industry, where it is going, how it is going to get there, and concerns of the industry leaders. There was PHD. Chemists, Legislators, Dispensary owners, growers, investment bankers, hedge fund operators, security operators, and cashless transaction operators that spoke just to name a few.
As we had a debriefing session on Wednesday evening after the summit concluded we developed the following as points of interest and concern. It is in no way conclusive and will be expanded upon, but I wanted to report our initial experience and findings. Therefore as follows:
1. The Industry is in its infancy and so the fact that we are just entering the space is not a hindrance as no one has taken the pole position yet and everyone is jockeying for their place. In fact, because of Rob’s excellent work on GMMF, we are actually in a very good spot of leadership to set the standard that all others will have to measure up.
2. Those that are in a leadership positions are emphasizing that the “pothead or stoner” stigma and stereotype must be overcome. In just about all breakout session the emphasis was the only way to do that is to raise the level of professionalism of the industry participants. I cannot stress enough the fervor this issue was discussed by all concerned.
3. Being that it is the beginning of what are calling the next .com phase and the huge money involved, there will be enough room for everyone to play, so do it correct and be professional with the consumer and others in the industry, even competitors.
4. There is much more to the industry than growing and distribution. Ancillary businesses to support the industry came from all over the United States. Even from states that have not even considered the legalization of Cannabis, so the “Genie is out of the bottle” and will not be put back. It is just a matter of time and at least the “Medical” use will be legalized in more and more states and eventually the Federal Government will fall in line with the will of the people. Forget the moral issues of right or wrong, just like the lottery, there is just too much money involved for the State and Federal governments to not want in on it. Big Pharma will also be entering, if not already there in the shadows.
5. Investment Banking/Hedge Fund professionals are very concerned with the “irrational” valuations of some of the cannabis related publicly trading companies. Not to mention the SEC and the speed they are taking to suspend questionable companies trading. There was a strong emphasis that investors should be very cautious when buying stock in a company that carries a market cap of several hundred million dollars when they have no revenues and barely a business plan. “Don’t fall into the Bigger Sucker trap” where you buy at one level and then hope for a bigger sucker to sell your stock.
To the dismay of some, I am happy that FDMF has not experienced this irrational valuation. In fact I think it is just the opposite on our case, and I am confident that as our plan unfolds and the revenues are shown to be real and growing, the valuation of FMDF shares will be fully realized and when the tide has turned into the shareholder’s favor the pain we are all feeling right now will be just a distant memory. I am committed to growing the company in the correct manner and not just by hype and continued promo.
In conclusion, we are hitting on all cylinders right now. GMMF and LTV are at full speed ahead and making great progress towards real and reoccurring revenues. As we finish the 3rd quarter for FDMF we will be posting revenues from different sources for the nine months ending June 30, in excess of$350,000. Our ELAS project is still awaiting the MDEQ approval to go into operation and even though it is not as we desired it to be, we are still committed to the advancement of ELAS. Its turn will come and we will be ready to act when we are given the green light.
The tide is turning into our favor and I am very confident of the future. Please feel free to call or email me with your questions and concerns. I also am always to happy to have you come to the office so we can talk in person.
Respectfully,
Brian Kistler
