Q: Do you still think xtc.to is an undervalued stock? Underwater by 40% so would this be a good stock for a tax loss? It has a horrific chart for the last two and half years.


EPS .18 for this quarter represents a p/e of 13.6 which is a premium to mg.to mre.to and lnr.to. Are you still
Confident in this company or move on to else. It has been a serious underperformer in the sector.

Last 1 year
MRE.TO + 100%
LNR.TO +33%
MG.TO +30%
XTC.TO -4.5%

Q: would appreciate your insight and views on this company now that they have reported and seem to be showing momentum.
would it be a little less riskier now for a small position.
thanks as always gary

Q: How would you view pollard announcing yesterday that they are increasing their ownership in NYX?

Q: Well, 14 months since my previous Q on CSO and it seems like there is a positive trend (after 3 years of negative eps the latest 3 qtrs were positive). But has it been solely due to the price of (mostly) met coal, or do you think their operations have improved (any indication that they are besting some of their competitors)?
The management commentary sounded quite positive - but that's what I wanted to hear - so I'm interested a more critical take.

Q: Would appreciate your opinion on this company. Seems they have foothold in Austraila.

Q: Any thoughts about RTI these days?

Q: What do you think of Minco Silver (MSV)? Is there something fundamentally wrong with the company or is it just trending lower due to the sector and tax loss selling?

Q: I am doing some research on PTG and I am somewhat amazed to see that the companies market cap is about $100 million, but revenues clock in at over $1.3 billion. It would seem to me that they have a large degree of leverage to any cost savings they can wring out of their operations. Even a 1% reduction would equate to a significant % of their market cap. I was also thinking that this could make it attractive as a takeover candidate. I note, as well, that in a recent response you indicate that the fairly attractive dividend appears safe. I am looking at building an investment "thesis" if you will, and was wondering if you could add any comments as it does sound as though you have had access to management recently.
Kind Regards.

Q: This small cap stock has had quite the drop in recent weeks. Are you aware of any recent news?
Thanks...Stan.

Q: Good Morning,

I have not yet finished my homework on Quarterhill, but I need your advice.

In the past nine months Quarterhill has invested US$67,415,000 in the acquisition of three companies (Viziya, IED and iCOMs), I believe these acquisitions were financed by cash on the balance sheet. In the June quarter, revenues were US $12,842,000, in the September quarter revenues were US $72,158,000. Net income was US $26,211,000, plus a onetime charge of US $15,190,000. They have US $40,000,000 in cash. Can Quarterhill repeat these numbers over the next quarters ? If they do, then their annual revenues will be US $280,000,000 and net income will be in the US $100,000,000 range and cash on the balance sheet will be north of $100,000,000.

Current US stock price is $1.73 ($1.73 multiplied by 124,767,000 stocks) and the market capitalization is US $216,000,000. If I deduct the projected cash on the balance sheet for the next twelve months, the enterprise market cap is US $ 116,000,000. These are very good numbers and this is a cheap company. I feel as if I'm my missing something in my analysis? Why is the company so cheap ? Will the new acquisition remove the lumpiness in revenue from quarter to quarter ?
Merci

Q: Hi Peter, wondering of your thoughts on this company (IP-T) or too small to assess?

Thanks!

Q: What do you think of the prospects for this small company?

Q: Are there any other names on your radar currently that might resemble a young SYZ or SIS ? Thanx Robbie

Q: Hi...who are the competitors of Photon control ?
Thanks.

Q: Does power metals corp. have a worthwhile deposit in its spodumene lithium area in Ontario. It is stated that spodumene mining results in a purer lithium extraction that is necessary for the small lithium batteries in smartphones and all small appliances. Is this a worthwhile speculation at this time.

Q: I notice sadly that Jean Lamarre Chairman of DBO passes away at age 63. A young age. Does Company have the depth in management to lead this company now that Mr. Lamarre has passed away.

When does company report its next Quarter and what are your thoughts of buying more shares. I have a half position. RAK.

Q: I purchased REAL on the IPO. I'm down 32% since then. Would you recommend purchasing more to average down my cost base or sell that holding? What is the future outlook for Real is my question.
