Advanced Bio Development

description: 'Advanced Bio Development, Inc. (ABD) was a New Jersey beverage and dietary-supplement company headquartered
  in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. It developed, produced and marketed X2PERFORMANCE, a patented all-natural liquid sports-energy
  supplement built around ATP, created by founder Dr. Ralph Ferrante as an alternative to conventional performance stimulants,
  and distributed in part through Anheuser-Busch InBev''s AB ONE network. The company sold consumer packaged goods through
  retail and e-commerce; software was never its product and it never operated a developer program, public API, SDK or developer
  portal. In March 2023 X2 Performance merged into the Don''t Quit! beverage platform — ABD and existing X2 investors became
  shareholders in Don''t Quit!, X2 CEO Mark French took the same role at the combined company, and Keurig Dr Pepper remained
  majority owner — after which the X2 brand was wound down. The brand domain x2performance.com is no longer controlled by
  the company: WHOIS lists the registrant organization as HugeDomains.com and the site 302s to a domain-resale listing, while
  advancedbiodevelopment.com does not resolve. This record is retained as an honest zero — a consumer-packaged-goods company
  with no API surface, whose only remaining public presence is third-party listings.'

x-status-detail: Merged into the Don't Quit! beverage platform in March 2023 (reported by BevNET and Sports Business Journal);
  the X2PERFORMANCE brand was discontinued. No first-party host survives — x2performance.com 302s to a HugeDomains resale
  listing and its WHOIS registrant organization is HugeDomains.com, and advancedbiodevelopment.com has no DNS record — so
  no Website pointer is wired. The EquityZen secondary-market listing this record was harvested from is still live and still
  markets "X2 Performance" pre-IPO shares three years after the merger.

  detail: Advanced Bio Development made the X2PERFORMANCE sports-energy drink, not software; the brand merged into the Don't
    Quit! platform in March 2023 and its domain x2performance.com now 302s to a HugeDomains resale listing whose WHOIS registrant
    organization is HugeDomains.com, while advancedbiodevelopment.com does not resolve at all.
