Amanda Maree Homeware Conducts Surveys For Its Slim Line Hangers

July 31, 2015 – – Amanda Maree Homeware, a business in Walnut, CA, has announced that they are running a survey on slim line and other clothes hangers. Their goal is to find out what their customers are looking for, thereby allowing them to improve on their current offerings. In order to encourage people to complete the survey, they will be automatically entered into a prize drawing as well.

Amanda Maree, owner of Amanda Maree Homeware, was quoted as saying, “Our hangers have been selling really well on Amazon and now we want to find out what our existing or new customers would like added to our lineup. We also would like to know what we can do to make our flocked hangers even better.”

Some of the things the company is trying to find out is whether their customers are looking for any additional features. This includes such things as colors and sizes. Furthermore, they want to know whether anyone would want any entirely new versions, like those designed specifically for children or babies.

The prize draw will choose one lucky winner at random, who will be notified by email. The prize is a pack of 25 hangers. More info on the hangers themselves can be found on Amazon and through the terms and conditions listed on the Amande Maree website. To take part in the drawing, contestants must be residents of mainland USA. For those interested in entering, enter draw here.

The current hangers have been available on Amazon for some time now. They have received a variety of positive customer reviews. “So I thought it was time to clear out my closets and started looking for a good hanger,” says Katherine Patricia Hatch. “I found Velvet Clothes Hangers By Amanda Maree Homeware and thought I would give it a try. I received my order and not only were these hangers super, the bonus cascading hooks that were in the package were a fun surprise. This product is not only top quality but the box it came in also makes for a great Christmas gift.”

However, according to Amanda Maree Homeware, no amount of positive reviews will mean their quality is ever completely perfect. They hope people will take the time, therefore, to answer the survey, so that the hangers can be improved upon further.

SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates Claims On Behalf of Investors of Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. – WMS

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / July 31, 2015 / Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc. (“Advanced Drainage” or the “Company”) (NYSE: WMS). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 888-476-6529, ext. 9980.

The investigation concerns whether Advanced Drainage and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 

On June 30, 2015, the Company filed a Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission extending its time to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 (the “2015 10-K”) due to the additional time required for the Company to complete its inventory costing analysis and the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors to review the Company’s journal entry control processes. On July 15, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing the delay in the filing of the 2015 10-K beyond the July 14, 2015 deadline and the need to adjust its previously issued earnings release for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2015. 

On this news, shares of Advanced Drainage fell $0.56 per share to close at $28.69 per share on July 15, 2015.

SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Reminds Shareholders with Losses on Their Investment in 3D Systems Corporation of Class Action Lawsuit and Upcoming Deadline – DDD

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / July 31, 2015 / Pomerantz LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against 3D Systems Corporation (“3D Systems” or the “Company”) (NYSE: DDD) and certain of its officers. The class action, filed in United States District Court, District of South Carolina, Rock Hill Division, is on behalf of a class consisting of all persons or entities who purchased 3D Systems securities between October 29, 2013 and October 22, 2014 inclusive (the “Class Period”). This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).

If you are a shareholder who purchased 3D Systems securities during the Class Period, you have until August 14, 2015 to ask the Court to appoint you as Lead Plaintiff for the class. A copy of the Complaint can be obtained at www.pomerantzlaw.com. To discuss this action, contact Robert S. Willoughby at rswilloughby@pomlaw.com or 888.476.6529 (or 888.4-POMLAW), toll free, ext. 9980. Those who inquire by e-mail are encouraged to include their mailing address, telephone number, and number of shares purchased.

3D Systems Corporation, through its subsidiaries, operates as a provider of 3D printing centric design-to-manufacturing solutions in the Americas, Germany, and the Asia-Pacific, as well as other European, the Middle East, and African countries. The company’s 3D printers transform data input from the format generated by 3D design software, CAD software, or 3D scanning and sculpting devices to printed parts using integrated, engineered plastic, metal, nylon, rubber, wax, and composite print materials. It offers stereo lithography, selective laser sintering, direct metal, multi-jet, color jet, and film transfer imaging printers, as well as plastic jet printing 3D printers.

The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants drove up 3D’s stock price by issuing false and misleading statements concerning the Company’s (i) ability to increase the capacity of its metal printing business; (ii) demand for its consumer products; (iii) the value of multiple companies it was acquiring; and (iv) expected earnings.

October 29, 2013, 3D’s CEO and President, Defendant Reichental, proclaimed that the Company had “decided to triple our manufacturing capacity over the next 12 months, as well as accelerate the development of additional direct metal 3D printer models.” Defendant Reichental also touted the strategic value of the Company’s recent acquisitions. In addition, on February 28, 2014, Reichental also represented that “our plan is [to] quadruple [direct metal printing] sales over the next 12 to 18 months.”

On July 31, 2014, 3D issued its second quarter results whereby the Company missed analysts’ expectations and reported revenue of $151.5 million on delays in the rollout of new products and disappointing guidance. On this news, the Company’s share price fell nearly 11%.

On October 22, 2014, the Company surprised the market by announcing disappointing preliminary Q3 results and guided lower full year revenue and earnings. In a press release, the Company blamed its disappointing results on capacity constraints for its direct metal printers. On this news, 3D shares plummeted over 15% on high volume.

The Pomerantz Firm, with offices in New York, Chicago, Florida, and San Diego, is acknowledged as one of the premier firms in the areas of corporate, securities, and antitrust class litigation. Founded by the late Abraham L. Pomerantz, known as the dean of the class action bar, the Pomerantz Firm pioneered the field of securities class actions.

New report details music business changes over coming year

The Midem 2015 Cheat Sheet report looks at two critical issues that will change the way the music business functions over the coming year, with an analysis of the key players and innovators that attended the event.

Cannes, France – July 31, 2015 /PressCable/

Following the latest Midem music business trade fair in Cannes last June, consultant and editor of Cannes or Bust Michael Leahy has drawn up a concise report of the two major issues that will affect the music business over the coming year. “For me, the discussion around streaming – though important – is increasingly overshadowed by the issue of data,” says Leahy. “It might seem unsexy, but data management and analysis is a growing motor of the business. Probably most facets of the business are now driven by data, and the smart executives are the ones that will harness the power within this data.”

He points to the fact that data analysis allows a better understanding of music consumers as one example. But there are also major benefits in using data and metadata for SEO purposes. “Just adding lyrics to a webpage, for example, can boost its ranking, as people actively look for song lyrics on the web. Combining better insights with greater SEO visibility will enable new revenue streams to be perfected.” The Midem 2015 Cheat Sheet also throws the spotlight on a technological innovation that could revolutionize how the business is run: blockchain technology. Perhaps best known as the backbone on which crypto-currencies such as Bitcoin are run, blockchain technology also allows for a radical re-think of how revenue is handled in the music business. To put it simply, it allows for almost instantaneous distribution of monies generated online, notably revenues coming from streaming.

The implications are wide-ranging, from artist royalties to publishing revenue. “A system that is this fast, secure and transparent will rapidly by-pass existing practices and allow for a leaner, fairer system,” says Leahy. The report also includes a selection of 17 services that either enable new revenues to be generated or optimize existing sources. Again, data plays a role, as several services can analyze videos on YouTube and pinpoint where there are revenue bottlenecks. Another allows the mass uploading of catalogues to harness YouTube’s upcoming streaming service. The Midem 2015 Cheat Sheet is available on Amazon Kindle. For further details, contact Michael Leahy or visit Cannes or Bust.
