Q: Good Afternoon
Historically Hammond has been a good performer but not so much in the past 12 months. I know you continued to like the name but can you explain the stock based compensation and who gets what? There is a pattern developing where this stock gets clipped because of SBC. Will this be a negative going forward or will it level out eventually and not have such an impact on the Share Price.
Thank you for your great service as always
Marty

Q: " I am increasingly interested in shifting from US to Canadian growth stocks and have been looking a little closer at the 5i growth portfolio as a result. I recently acquired a position in PNG.V and am actively looking for another great Canadian growth story. Could you comment on the company (or companies) you would recommend from your growth portfolio that would be the best bets to put new money to work in the current environment?"

Q: Hammond getting whacked again after earnings. Is it because of the lower backlog, share based comp, lower gross margins? All of the above? What are your thoughts going forward? Its had a nice run since the April lows. Would you add here or wait? Have a 2.15% position in the name after the drop today. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i, this stock always trades the same, slow escalator up, earning release: "Net earnings of $13.4 million in the quarter, significantly impacted by share-based compensation.", and then it takes the elevator down.

Please provide review of results and whether it is still holdable or are there better options.

Thx

Q: Can I ask you to comment on these three favourites with your best guess on the potential impact of AI on their future growth and earnings? I'm guessing based on previous comments that if ZDC is already using AI it will probably be net positive. For PNG possibly the same? But in the recent 5i report on KSI one of the potential risks listed was if a major customer developed their own in-house solutions….one could see how AI might facilitate that and end up being a net negative for KSI? Just curious if you have any thoughts or have picked up anything from any public comments from any of these companies? Thank you.
