Q: Hi 5i Team!

FTG was a top pick on Market Call yesterday and is among the most active on the TSX today. Your lone opinion on FTG on April 12 indicates a positive impression and outlook. Would you please expand on your opinion as follows:

What current metrics matter to 5i when evaluating this company now, and how does this guide you in forming your opinion?

What metrics would you focus on when evaluating FTG a year from now?

What industry do they serve, and who are their main customers To what extent do they depend on domestic and export sales of their technology?

Is FTG a good candidate for a 2-3% patient wealth building portfolio or do you consider more of a cyclical investment?

Is FTG the kind of investment that would possibly considered by 5i in future as a candidate for the Growth Portfolio?

Appreciate your opinion, as always...

Q: More M&A going on in the burgeoning programmatic ad space with Comcast acquiring StickyAds today for $US 100m+

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/comcast-acquired-french-ad-tech-102757421.html

As mentioned in the article, Comcast had also acquired FreeWheel previously for $US 320m in 2014

As I understand it, AcuityAds already includes the marketing and technical aspects of a combined FreeWheel and StickyAds. Of course the scale of business is different but their valuation at US $420m+ might make AcuitiyAds at $CDN 33m look attractive to someone. Would you agree?

Q: Stupid, me, I forgot to put in the company name when I asked a question, lets try it again. I bought this company about 3 weeks ago, and has been on a stswady decline ever since. I don't understand it, they are trading at about cash value and are making money. I didn't know they had done a QT transaction, I typically avoid them like the plague, how do you feel about this one, do you think I should take my lumps or hang on.

Thank you for you time and have a nice day

Q: What is your opinion of the product that Flyht Aerospace has and its potential in today's market. I really like the theory of the product but as the price lingers I'm thinking there must be some problem or issue that is stopping companies from purchasing their solution for all aircraft. Is it still a leading edge solution in the market place and its cost per aircraft is what is holding sales back? Management? Or does it simply need more time. Would appreciate your input here
Thank-you in advance
