    from the 2018 Annual Report

    “As of December 31, 2018,
    warrants to purchase an
    aggregate of 135,302 share
    of common stock (on a
    post-reverse-split basis)
    were outstanding.”

    “… an exercise price
    of $10.18 …”

    “… expiring on
    July 15, 2019 …”

    CFBK has seems to have
    a nice simple ownership
    structure.

    The options seem quite
    modest. Of-course that
    can be taken two ways
    (like a lot of things).

    They probably will not
    declare a dividend for
    at least three years,
    and that seems to be
    as well for people
    like myself, who would
    buy very few shares.

    They seem to have the
    energy to make a bit
    like a start up. A new
    branch this March.

    There is the problem
    of rising interest rates,
    and attracting deposits;

    still, speaking relatively
    of bank stocks (and I’m
    coming from nowhere, right
    now) an interesting
    investment.

    And one can get
    their news, snoop in
    their books, and follow
    their story for free.

    Click, click.

    What a wonderful luxury
    to receive the Bowser Database
    in print version.

    The constancy and privacy
    of the possessedness of
    paper and ink.

    The vibratingness of the
    pixeled screen, leaves me
    in always a degree of
    inquietude:

    When I look at the
    print version of
    The Bowser Database,

    I will not have the
    uncanny feeling, that:

    it is looking back at me.

    Thomas Rice addresses
    this issue in the
    Open Discussion Topic:

    FORD

    it was rerecommended.)

    It is interesting that
    people often feel
    a relationship between

    what they sold
    and what they received.

    However:

    It is proper to allocate
    all investing funds,
    as if they were fresh capital,
    because that is what they are:

    Like the Firebird:

    This is not a proper
    answer to the question,

    it is suggested, however,
    indirectly, by the Game Plan,
    that one consider the next
    Company Of The Month.

    Or, as the plan stresses
    diversification, perhaps
    consider a stock on page 4
    that isn’t already in your portfolio.

    A “Disappearing” (or “Hidden”)
    Topic can also be found
    by searching it’s name

    (a Disappearing Topic
    will be drawn up,
    to the list of found items,
    by a search of any term,
    that it contains).

    Then click on the
    Topic Name.

    For example:

    search (in the Forum search box):
    Instruments Of Ownership

    Then scroll down to the TOPIC
    Instruments Of Ownership

    (it will have the number
    “#11880” next to it)

    (there will be other entries
    for: Instruments Of Ownership
    in the list of found items,
    including, obviously, this one)

    When the Moon
    is in the Seventh House,

    And Jupiter
    aligns with Mars,

    The preferred shareholders
    may own the shirt on your back,

    And the class z shareholders
    may steer your stars.

    It might be the dawning of
    the age of warrant conversion.

    The age of debt conversion.

    Dilution.

    Dilution.

    All considerations
    of trust and sympathy aside:

    It might be beneficial
    to have an understanding of
    the instruments of ownership
    that operate upon a title
    to Roebling’s Brooklyn Bridge.

    Now, of-course; yet also
    when the clock strikes Twelve,
    and the common shareholders
    all change into mice,
    at hay pennies on the dollar.

    . . . Or nice round pumpkins,
    to fill that blank asking:
    Proceeds Received?

    Alas, my hope failed:

    Of-course, the
    Cost Basis
    will not change.

    Multiply the
    Cost Basis Per Share
    by 5.5

    Would anyone like to comment
    on whether the Common Shares of
    Central Federal Corporation (CFBK)
    represent 100% of the corporation’s
    ownership?

    Or whether CFBK has any warrants,
    special classes of shares,
    or preferred shares?

    Please ignore what
    I wrote above.

    It is not correct.

    As Faris Sleem
    plainly and
    clearly stated:

    just multiply
    your cost basis
    by 5.5 . . .

    I hope!

    IF: the reverse split
    issued 1 new share
    to replace every 5 old shares,
    as stated in
    the Follow-Through table
    of the March 2019 Bowser Report:

    THEN: $15.00 would be
    the Adjusted Buy Limit
    _____________________________

    IF: the reverse split
    issued 1 new share
    to replace every 5.5 old shares,
    as stated above:

    THEN: $16.50 would be
    the Adjusted Buy Limit:

    $3.00 x 5.5 = $16.50

    The New Buy Limit
    ____________________________

    Or, more confusingly:

    300 dollars per 100 shares

    300 ÷ 100 is the same as 300/100

    $300 ÷ 100 shares = $3.00

    The Old Buy Limit : $3.00
    ____________________________

    300/(100÷5.5*) = 300/18.18

    * the 100 shares
    must be divided by 5.5
    (the reverse split)

    $300 ÷ 18.18 shares = $16.50

    The New Buy Limit : $16.50
    _____________________________

    Because of the reverse split,
    your position is probably an
    Odd Lot: a group of shares,
    not divisible by 100
    (without a remainder).

    Therefore:

    the reverse split divisor
    must be changed, from
    addressing 100 share lots,
    to addressing single shares:

    18.18 was the hundred share
    reverse split divisor:
    it must be divided by 100:

    18.18 ÷ 100 = 0.1818

    0.1818 is the single share
    reverse split divisor
    ______________________________

    For space convenience
    (this is all being done
    with one finger on an
    inexpensive cellphone):

    Your Old Cost Basis = OLD

    Your New Cost Basis = NEW

    Your Doubling Price = DP

    Your Sell All Shares Price = SASP
    _________________________________

    OLD x 0.1818 = NEW

    NEW x 2 = DP

    NEW x 0.5 = SASP

    Adjusted Buy Limit $15.00

    And since you have
    commandeered
    The Bowser Database thread
    to the purposes of TSSI:

    Please answer this,
    Mr. Q3 Reader:

    Do the Common Share
    shareholders own
    100% of the company
    as of that report?

    Especially, are there any
    special classes of stock,
    or preferred issues?

    (if they could get
    their share price up
    a conversion of debt to stock
    wouldn’t be a bad idea;
    on the other hand,
    the way they’re doing,
    maybe it’d be completely
    unnecessary)

    Hey! I wanted it
    to go down to 75¢
    to buy it!

    He he he, maybe the
    indexes will fall,
    and bring it down
    like before.

    Probably not: probably
    all the weak holders are
    gone, and seller’s remorse
    will come back with a
    vengeance.

    Oh well. I’ll survive.

    Good Luck!

    (it should not be
    too surprising
    if the quarter was
    a little weak,
    given the macro
    economic mood)

    By the way,
    if you bought it
    at AmeriTrade, how
    did they behave?

    We’re you able
    to buy it over
    the internet,
    like a regular
    stock?
