MyEcheck Inc (OTCMKTS:MYEC) Pushed Up By Social Media
[[tagnumber 0]][[tagnumber 1]]The performance of MyEcheck Inc (OTCMKTS:MYEC) has been pretty bad throughout most of this year and we have seen quite a lot of sessions end in the red for the company stock. Lately, however, there has been some upward movement that wasn’t explainable at first sight.[[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]]The company hasn’t issued very optimistic press releases, apart from a debt exchange agreement with TCA Fund Management Group. The company’s financial state also doesn’t provide much investor confidence. Here is what [[tagnumber 6]]MYEC[[tagnumber 7]] had to show in the balance sheet of its report for the second quarter of the year.[[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 11]] [[tagnumber 12]]cash: $22 thousand[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 12]]current assets: $153 thousand[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 12]]current liabilities: $2.09 million[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 12]]quarterly revenues: $181 thousand[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 12]]quarterly net loss: $1.65 million[[tagnumber 13]] [[tagnumber 22]] [[tagnumber 0]] [[tagnumber 2]] [[tagnumber 0]]Looking at these numbers we are not amazed by the poor performance of [[tagnumber 6]]MYEC.[[tagnumber 7]] The cash reserves have gone down alongside the assets while the liabilities have grown.
