Q: Hello 5i team;
Exro Technologies has performed exceedingly well lately with good momentum, seems to have gained investor interest and is hitting all time highs. The company's technology involves significant improved performance of electric motors, batteries , generators and have announced several partnerships in diverse industries.
Could you offer your views as far as risk/reward on this micro cap company?
Much Appreciated!

Q: Reports Wednesday-
Revenue and EPS estimate please?

I bought this back in April as a covid play. I am wondering if I should just sell half and stick with it or move on. Is it one of those quiet unloved stories will outperform over time, or is growth too muted for a long term investor.

Thanks.

Q: Company Release from June 8
Questor Technology Inc. announces that John Sutherland, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, has decided to retire effective immediately.

Stock moved up on this 'sudden' news. Any insight why and what it might mean in the future? Could it mean he wasn't the person for the new normal that QST will need to adapt to?

Q: They have raised $30 m (without any warrants) during the past year to primarily fund exploration and drilling, my take on their press releases
Ross Beaty owns around 20%
Please explain BHP's formal earn-in and joint venture agreement dated July 15, 2019

BHP has the right to earn a 51% ownership initially, to a max of 70%
........is BHP committed to invest, or is it up to them to decide if they want to ?
if its the latter, is there a time constraint for them to invest
I'm thinking to take a small position here
what do u think

Q: Can you shed some light on what is going on with WildBrain the last two days. Never seen that kind of volatility for that stock. Did a round trip yesterday. Went from $1.36 to $2.38 on huge volume and today back to $1.36. Who is buying since there was huge volume at $2.38
And the next day take a $1.00 loss. Again, I
Don’t understand the volatility in the market.
Is it a creeping takeover going on?



$2.38 And back today to $1.36.

Q: I have held on to this looser much too long. When they announced yesterday that Aurora was selling its entire stake at $3.00 /share I gasped expecting that the stock would crater too well below that on the news. Instead it rose nicely the day of the announcement at one point trading as high as $3.84 Can you please explain the reason for this? On a separate note they also reported spectacular Q1 sales growth on Monday yet still reported a loss of $0.16 /share. Will this company ever be able to turn a profit?

Q: In your response to David's question on May 26/20 you disagreed with his assessment that IBI Group's has a good looking balance sheet. The years 2019 and 2018 are not comparable because of IFRS16. Like other smaller companies IBI did not restate it 2018 numbers for the lease liabilities that were recorded at $67million in 2019. In fact bank debt was reduced by $25 million and cash on hand increased by $6 million. The remaining material debt is a convertible debenture maturing Dec 31/21 which if the share price starts to reflect how undervalued IBI is to its peers, that debt will become equity.
The other adjustment I would like to draw readers attention is that IBI Group has significant insider ownership. As disclosed on page 9 of the Management Information Circular, the partners through a Management Partnership own 6.3 million shares of Non Participating Voting shares convertible into common shares(1 for 1) as well as 7.1 million common shares. On a diluted basis the partners or senior management own 35.68%. Directors and other senior officers own an additional 1.7%. Thank you
Don
