Investment Q&A

Q: Hmm.a is a spin off hps.a. would you invest in one or both? If one ,which one and why?

Q: G'morning 5i,

I'm sitting on a fairly substantial loss on GXE in my TFSA. In trying to decide what to do, I first waited for the strategic review to complete, hoping that something positive would come of that. When it didn't, I next decided to wait for its latest earnings report, hoping for something positive there but, from my review of the numbers and despite management's rosy outlook, I don't see anything re-assuring there. either.
My inclination is to sell, take the loss and do something useful with the now severely diminished funds.
Occasionally in the past when I've made that decision with a losing investment, hindsight has caused me to regret it, and I think perhaps I should have been alert to signs that a turnaround was in the offing.
From your objective perch do you see any reason to hold GXE given the milquetoast strategic review and what I interpret to be the less than satisfactory recent earnings report?
I look forward to your thoughts. Thank you.
Peter

Q: Is the FOXF growth story broken or just terrible macro right now? Are they losing share to a competitor? They have had a bumpy ride with the earning shocks and wondering if they can still kick it back into high gear. Or if earnings will continue to deflate.

Q: This is more a comment. This company has spend a significant (over $20 million) on R and D, in particular automation, over the last three years and the benefits are clear to see. The cfo told me that the new technology has performed beyond expectation and it is equivalent to employing 100 welders.
The dual share structure, while often maligned, does have its benefits. It means management has a huge incentive to get things right.

Q: On February 14 Zach presented an overview of Payfare on the Monthly Roll Up Podcast . It sounded intriguing and it is now on my watchlist. Any further evaluation would be welcome. What metrics are important to watch as this company continues to develop?

Q: BNE has been one of my worst performing oil and gas stocks over the past year. Your last answer on BNE mentioned that it is cheap on all metrics and my spreadsheet shows it screening well against other oil and gas companies. What do you think is the problem?

Thanks Steve

Q: Can you please comment on:
(1) Insider Ownership
(2) How is management compensated - salary, options, common shares purchased in open market?
(3) Do they dilute shareholders? Perhaps share count over the last 3-5 years and if it was warranted in your opinion

Thank you so much for your valued information. I am really appreciating 5i Research.
