 Corporate updates and company advances:

We have purchased a Chevy heavy duty cargo van that will be used in our route sales division. The custom wrapped van featuring our logos and Dr. Karent Sierra's (see images on FB) image, will assist us in our DSD (Direct sales deliveries) to convenience stores, supermarkets, hotels and schools. We also welcome Yasmani as our company driver. His duties are to oversee our DSD and manage our custom coolers installs and replenishment.

Company Updates:

 We recently have been faced with a couple of legal issues we would like to clarify. A fictitious lawsuit was filed against Pleasant Kids and on December 15th an order was signed by a Circuit Court Judge vacating a judgment that was granted due to a misrepresentation of facts. We have entered into a settlement with a former employee and have since started making the payments to satisfy the amounts owed. A $10,000.00 payment was paid on February 12th 2015. Our corporate council at Fishers & Philips have since served a demand letter to the responsible parties to immediately remove all documents of the vacated judgment or be faced with a lawsuit for an amount of $100 dollars a day plus damages and legal fee. The demand letter was delivered on February 24th and the parties have 30 days to remove or face this lawsuit.

Additionally, in an ongoing effort to increase shareholder value the company recently decreased its authorized shares. This move was not welcomed by a company investor. The investors filed a claim in New York and after long conversations the claim was dropped but the authorized needed to be increased. We are fully committed to transparency but the nature of the negotiation needed to be discreet so that the final outcome can be a positive one.

Battlefrog Sponsorship Discussion Update

Earlier this year Pleasant Kids, Inc. entered talks with Battlefrog concerning potential sponsorship of the Battlefrog Series.  On February 9, 2015 Pleasant Kids Inc believed that it had reached an agreement in principle with Battlefrog.  Pleasant Kids then sent out a sponsorship announcement to the public.  Unfortunately, talks then failed to result in a sponsorship agreement.  As a result, Pleasant Kids must retract its press statements to that effect.  

Our new corporate website will soon be finished and it will represent our efforts of building our corporate image and brand. We are excited to receive feedback from the public regarding our new site. As always we want to offer thanks to our shareholders as we continue our journey towards success.
