This is a very good little company. When I first came across this company it trading on the Pink Sheets and had a market cap of about 40 million dollars. They were a typical pink sheeter that had done a reverse merger and gone the typical pipe financing route. When I first met them I was very dubious of their credibility but I stayed with it and worked through a painful series of one on one meetings in broken English. I made a small investment because something told me these guys were for real. Fast forward a few years, today they are listed on the NYSE and I have grown...

AOB's Cash Generation Provides Backstop to Earnings Miss
American Oriental Bioengineering's (AOB) 3Q09 results missed expectations and prior guidance as key risk factors came to bear. The company also announced a relatively small restatement to prior results following the engagement of Ernst & Young as its auditor (some minor housekeeping is okay, in our view). We noted in our post last week that short interest was elevated, but we hoped the shorts would be wrong this time.
