British utility company Telecom Plus said it would write down about 11 million pounds of unrecoverable bills at its gas unit and that it expected its full-year pretax profit to be “significantly below market expectations”.
Shares in the company fell as much as 26 percent to their lowest in about three years, making the stock the biggest loser on the FTSE-250 Midcap Index.
Telecom Plus said it expects an adjusted pretax profit of 52 million pounds to 53 million pounds ($77 million-$79 million) for the year ended March 31, after taking into account an about 6 million pound impact from higher-than-anticipated leakage and theft of gas.
“Excluding this impact, the outcome will be below the level we were expecting to achieve,” the company said in a statement.

by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
LifeVantage, which was once one of Utah’s fastest-growing network marketing companies, has reduced their staff by 10% and senior staff members have been demoted to customer service positions.
This comes in the wake of CEO Doug Robinson’s sudden departure from the company amid reports that his departure was instigated by top-level distributors, who blamed his incompetence for falling sales revenues.
On Apirl 1, 2015, LifeVantage Corporation (the “Company”) received a written notice (the “Notice”) from NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company has not been in compliance with the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for a period of 30 consecutive business days.

TriVita Loses Trademark After FTC Fines Them $3.5 Million
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
A year after the Federal Trade Commission fined supplement maker TriVita Inc. $3.5 million for making unsupported health claims about its Nopalea cactus juice drink, a federal appeals court on Friday also refused to give the company a trademark registration on the juice name.
The Federal Circuit ruled that “Nopalea” couldn’t be registered as a trademark because it is merely descriptive of the drink — made from juice of the nopal cactus — that TriVita was selling with it.
