Creative Edge Nutrition Inc (OTCMKTS:FITX) has been on a downward slope for some time. Questions over insider stock sales, Health Canada rejecting CEN Biotech's planned 58,000 sq. ft. building in Lakeshore, Ontario, Canada to grow pot and make the property the largest, most advanced medical marijuana grow facility on earth, and a slew on negative articles by short sellers have really taken a toll on its stock price. However, things are starting to look up for the company now that its energy drinks are set to take off and FITX is spinning off CEN Biotech. Plus the company is now in the hands of CEO James Robinson and we're looking for a rebound in FITX.Shareholders of FITX, as of the close of business on November 30, 2015 will receive 1 share of CEN Biotech, Inc. common stock for every 700 common shares of FITX owned on the record date of November 30, 2015. The total shares of CEN will be 7,000,000 which is comprised of 6,900,000 common shares and 100,000 preferred shares. CEN is currently planning to have its shares traded on the OTC Markets QB.In December, CEN Biotech made a tactical legal decision unilaterally requesting an adjournment of the Judicial Review examinations because of the Canadian government's intention of a federal-provincial-territorial process that will lead to the legalization and regulation of marijuana. The requested adjournment of the pending Judicial Review case is essentially an extension of time for the depositions of CEN and government officials until early March of 2016.

Among these are Cherry Pear, Blueberry Lemonade, Strawberry Kiwi, Peach Mango, Apple Berry, and Orange Pineapple. When the GIDDY UP line was announced, CEO James Robinson said:

"We have made significant progress towards the launch of this breakthrough energy drink to the market. Formulations have been completed for all six product flavors in both sugar and sugar free. The Company has developed the formulations for the twelve products and ordered the Fruit flavoring for our first production run of approximately 200,000 cans to meet early market demand for GIDDY UP. In parallel, we are currently working on our 24 pack master case & four pack packaging design six color process.

Currently trading with a market cap of $19 million, FITX has been able to captivate investors in the past with its story. However, the company failed to deliver on almost all of its promises. Investors are now hoping that FITX has turned a corner and new CEO James Robinson can deliver with the GIDDY UP line of energy drinks. The deal with Dr Pepper Snapple is certainly a step in the right direction. Furthermore, the spinoff of CEN Biotech will hopefully unlock shareholder value. With the stock having been beaten up so much by the shorts, we think a rebound is due. Sign up to Insider Financial and stay on top of the latest developments from FITX.
