Just like we have stated in other Pump and Dump ("P&D") investigations, we are comfortable with stating that American Heritage International (AHII) shares are worth no more than they would fetch as a shell company, or in this case $0.002.

• AHII trades at a market cap of around $200 million even though it appears that its e-cigarette assets were valued at only $25,000 at the time of its reverse merger in August 2013.
• Investors assume that AHII has 99 million shares outstanding, but in actuality the true fully diluted share count is around 250 million. We are betting that investors will react negatively to this reality once they fully digest the company's 2013 10-K (just filed) where this finding is not readily apparent.
• The CEO is involved with another public company that is receiving "third party" promotional activity.
• We believe that the competitive and regulatory environment almost ensures that AHII's business plan fails. We believe it to be absurd that AHII is of the opinion that its competitors are undercapitalized. Vapor Corp Common (VPCO) just raised $10 million. Lorillard (LO) subsidiary Blue eCigs controls 40% of the US e-cigarette market.
• Regulatory risk, right from the company:"On August 23, 2013, the Wall Street Journal reported that the FDA is considering a ban on online sales of electronic cigarettes, although the FDA clarified that any such intention would be part of the agency's rule-making procedures. If the FDA implements such a ban, our financial results would be materially adversely affected, as approximately 50% of our revenue is derived from online sales." Our response to this statement? Fifty percent of what revenue?!
