    Fro Investors: Listen Up!

    ALL FRO INVESTORS: PLEASE LISTEN CLOSELY

    I just want to remind you that the distribution of SFL shares will be 2/18,

    BUT the cash distribution of 2.50 per share comes ONLY if you hold through 2/20. The cash distribution comes later, about 3/1.

    BillyJoe:

    Please note that FRO is going to give out another bunch of SFL shares NEXT dividend date, May 29?. If you hold they will give you another 25 shares for the 100 shares you hold of FRO now.

    How's that for DOUBLE nice?

      New-Born,
      Pinch me I must be dreaming. Can I buy more FRO and get more SFL before May? When will they run out of shares and why don't they keep some? It should be easy to hold these shares. Why would anyone sell?

        Pinch You

        BillyJoe,

        You can buy more. I bought 500 more after the ex-date for SFL, and am holding for SFL and 2.50 cash divy.

        Note that in May this is the end of SFL share giveaway. With the February 3 gifting of SFL shares, they have given away 75% of the company. With May gifting of shares, 100% of SFL will have been broken off from FRO.

        Don't forget there's another 2.50 divy coming in May, too.

          New-Born,
          Not to start any rumors,but on an MSN board one poster noted that in Dec.2004, FRO's Tor Troim at a conference with GMR and OMM representatives at his side announced intentions to acquire GMR and OMM within 12 months and have SFL manage the finances of the resulting company.

            SFL Shares

            BillyJoe,

            I was inaccurate in saying that FRO will giveaway SFL shares May 29. The date has not yet been set, but the speculation is May 29th is the date. I apologize for the inaccuracy.

            Hey, it was a deal, wasn't it? I like dividends and free shares.

              Newborn...Most of my relatives are from Breathitt County Ky. I don't go there often, but I guess I can't deny that I am part hillbilly. Oh yea, and IIC...I was born in Oxnard. I would give my life history, but I grew up as a military brat and I lived in too many places to list here. I call Florida home.

              Newborn, is it too late to buy FRO for the Dividend???

                Webs,

                Part Vulcan, part hillbilly. Is that even legal?

                FRO: ex-date for cash money is 2/23/2005. You are sitting in the rocking chair for cash, Webs. The way I see things is that the price ought to move upwards towards $55 by then. I would think it would be a good time to jump on board, but of course, what do I know? If nothing else, you ought to see the price increase between now and ex-date, and you could, shall we say, "jump ship" just before the divy or hold for long term gains. I would like to get that last chunk of SFL for free myself. But my opinion is that it should be a good play.

                    RL,

                    Why do you like BCII? I'm curious because I've been watching this one for a while, too. Maybe I should have taken a position, since it's done pretty well, but I just didn't learn enough about it to feel comfortable with that. Revenues look pretty good, profits are just now rolling in... momentum is building, what else do you see?

                          You're a pretty good dart thrower.

                          Did you see that big move today by NGPS? Picked up .03 last time I looked. I told you it was a strong buy

                            thanks for the info RL... it's pretty much the same as what I know about BCII, and don't worry, I'm not buying it based only on that info. I know someone working there, and I'd probably talk to him first before putting any money into this. you need to be extra careful when putting money into small pharma companies. they can drop like a rock, in a heartbeat. though the earnings BCII has, this doesn't seem to be as likely a scenario... unless the main product sales were threatened somehow. this is the key point I'd want to know before investing- whether there are any issues (known or "hidden") that could threaten Hectorol sales.
