the numbers look good! are they sustainable, though? have to look at what this co is doing first, then maybe buy some...

Looks interesting. Wonder if they plan to increase penetration in the US?

It looks like a mini-Herbal Life (Multi Level Marketing), right?
I see they were investigated and cleared a long time ago and as long as not further questioned as a MLM pyramid scheme it will remain lucrative while remaining questionable due to the MLM structure and the dark cloud associated with that business structure.

Interesting that in their most recent 10-Q and 10-K the most recent results are shown all the way over to the right and the previous period to the left of that. This is the reverse of just about any such report I've ever seen so if you look quick it appears that sales decreased by 1/3 instead of increasing by 1/2.

The Alura product looks particularly interesting.

Look at that little monkey go!

If you look at these quarterly numbers, this stock is incredibly undervalued right now. They also gave an advance estimate of 2Q revenues of 34 million, which would be 50% over the last quarter! Could be the steal of the century or a disaster waiting to happen:

Look at the steady increases in revenue each quarter for at least a year, L. P. Hold until this shows some indication that it will stop. I do realize you're already traumatized by holding past 15% but try to hang in.

I sold all of my NHTC today....it was easy money that I didn't want to give back. Doesn't mean that the stock won't keep going up..just seems too good to be true.
