[[tagnumber 0]][[tagnumber 1]]By now, it’s clear that Medbox Inc (OTCMKTS:MDBX) is in a pretty nasty situation. The company stock has lost 99% of its value year–to–date and the red sessions that the ticker is recording are a lot more than the ones it manages to close in the green.[[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]]The overall direction is downward and it couldn’t be any other way. The company had to restate some of its filings and the numbers were far from the ones previously reported. The latest one shows that [[tagnumber 6]]MDBX[[tagnumber 7]] is actually in a pretty dire situation.[[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 11]] [[tagnumber 12]]cash: $346 thousand[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 12]]current liabilities: $16.7 million[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 12]]revenues for the first 9 months of the year: $464 thousand[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 12]]net loss for the first 9 months of the year: $25.1 MILLION[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 20]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]]Certainly some very disturbing numbers that show us the fate of [[tagnumber 6]]MDBX’s[[tagnumber 7]] stock is no surprise.
