STKO 3rd Quarter 2011 Financials
Authorized ♦ 175,000,000 – Outstanding ♦ 79,425,737 – Float ♦ 3,650,000
A low float stock worth buying and holding onto… while you can!
This low floater quietly went about its business in 2011, and it appears it’s going to get a bit noisier in Jacksonville, Florida, home of Stakool, Inc. ( OTCQB : STKO ) in 2012. President and CEO Peter Hellwig has the experience to keep the solid news flowing and to keep this developmental stage company moving in the right direction. OTC stocks with experienced management at the helm are always fun to watch. Hellwig and his 20-plus years experience understands how to grow a company, and he’s been making some bold moves. Stakool, Inc. , operates in the natural & organic and health & wellness markets under its wholly owned subsidiary Anthus Life Corp.
In early 2011, Stakool, Inc. entered into a purchase agreement with Anthus Life Corp. , and with 2011 in the books, this has turned into a remarkable marriage that produced a strong CEO for the company in Peter Hellwig and a strong product line that is only growing stronger. Hellwig was the CEO at Anthus Life Corp. , and became the obvious choice to run the newly expanded, fully reporting OTCQB company. There is nothing complicated about Stakool, Inc. , and the company purposely keeps everything simple. It’s that simplicity that is making noise as Anthus Life is adding to its product line and making smart partnerships that will add to its revenue stream and bottom line and grow its distribution footprint in North America.
We feel as strongly as Peter Hellwig does that STKO will have a banner year in 2012 as he works to grab the company’s share of a $6.4 billion dollar pie in the natural and organic snack industry. The CEO has discussed the company will add additional products in the new year, and it has recently expanded its offerings with a bi-lateral agreement that gives the company an organic product to complement its own energy bars. With a Float of only 3.65-million, any volume at all will dramatically move the price per share… more importantly, the current PPS sets up an awesome entry price. This is a company that is certainly worth a position heading into 2012.
Company Overview
Stakool Inc./Anthus Life Corp. has a goal to bring to market premium products like its Natural plus Energy™ bars and its newly added New Sun Cookies and become one of the leading distributors of natural and organic products. The company has 8 different energy bars in its Natural plus Energy™ bar collection and now with New Sun Cookies added to complement the bars, the product line and distribution channels are growing in concert with one another.
The company is headed up by Peter Hellwig who has spent 20 years as an executive for Fortune 500 and Fortune 100 companies on the consultancy side working specifically in mergers and acquisitions, strategic planning and business development. He has spent the last 5 to 10 years with starting up developmental stage companies and getting them prepared for the public market. Hellwig has experience in launching products, and he’s adamant that Anthus Life will launch at least 2 to 4 additional product lines in 2012.
The company made another solid move when it brought US Olympic gymnast Shannon Miller on board to serve as the company’s spokesperson. Miller holds 7 Olympic medals, she is a mother and she is a cancer survivor. Surviving cancer and raising a little one has Shannon Miller eating healthy and always on the go, so combining that with her sports background as the most decorated US gymnast ever… she knows a thing or two about energy and the necessity to have it readily available. Miller’s endorsement is a feather in the company’s cap, and she is an ideal spokesperson for all of the healthy brands that will be distributed by STKO . The company scores a perfect 10 with her selection.
Company Products
Natural plus Energy™ bars come in 8 simple flavors… Granola Bar, Pecan Bar, Peanut Bar, Almond Bar, Cranberry Bar, Cashew Bar, Fruits and Nuts Bar, and the Sesame Almond Bar. The company prides itself on “simple food.” In the energy bars, you will find anywhere from 4 to 8 total ingredients ranging from nuts and seeds to fruits and grains that all highlight the company’s efforts to bring its customers “the right amount of all natural, tasty ingredients to give you the boost you need.” Anthus Life has stepped up its sales efforts with an online presence by offering the Natural plus Energy™ bars for sale online at two high traffic websites.
Peter Hellwig is looking for ways to expand the availability of the energy bars and we assume its new products into the future, and to that end, the CEO is utilizing both alice.com and drugstore.com to increase its sales. The two websites are visited millions of times each month by consumers. Alice.com is the leading e-commerce platform and online marketplace for household essentials.
Anthus Life utilizes Alice.com for its Natural plus Energy™ product line because of its industry leading direct-to-consumer platform for consumer packaged goods. Alice.com not only offers the products directly to its consumer following, but also provides the foundation for the shopping cart services on naturalplusenergy.com as well as for the online storefront on the product’s Facebook page.
Hellwig says drugstore.com is one of the leading e-tailers, and “certainly they are the leader in the online sales of health, beauty and personal care products, and we are thrilled to have our products be part of such a leading organization. The implementation of both of these online venues is just the beginning of a continuing strategy of expanding our e-commerce, online and social media presence. Reaching out to your consumers through sophisticated distribution channels is key to maintaining visibility and building consumer awareness, exposure and brand loyalty.”
New Sun Cookies …a new product offering through a bi-lateral agreement between Anthus Life Corp. and the company New Sun Cookies . New Sun Cookies are sold across Canada and the United States in health food stores, natural food sections of supermarkets, and many other retail outlets — including Costco, Whole Foods, Loblaws, convenience stores, and coffee specialty shops. This bi-lateral agreement will give STKO the opportunity to place its energy bars into already established distribution channels with the cookies.
New Sun Cookies are made from organic ingredients and are USDA Organic, ECO and Kosher certified and Organic Canada certified. The products are available in eight flavors and are made with whole grains, zero trans fat, low sodium and the company says a great source of fiber. When discussing the company’s potential strong sales growth throughout 2012, Hellwig points to this deal with New Sun Cookies as a great contributor. ”The addition provides expanded sales opportunity; we immediately gain a distributor and their existing sales; as well as having the distributor add our (energy) bars in the product offering to their existing down-line customers.”
