National Holdings Corp. (NHLD) Sees Drastic Improvement in Year-over-Year Positive Adjusted EBITDA

National Holdings, a full service investment banking company operating through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, reported financial results for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Total revenues for the year were $118,648,000, a decrease of $7,873,000, or 6%, compared to $126,521,000 over the same period in 2011.

The Guitammer Company, Inc. (GTMM) Management Links Arms with Shareholders

One of the things investors look for in a company is the quality of the management team and the alignment of the team’s personal interests with those of the company’s shareholders.
