Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: It has been 6 months since you last commented on CTS so I would appreciate your assessment of their Q3 results that were released on 20 Nov. Clearly the market liked what it saw as the SP took off although it has now checked back 26% from its high water mark of $1.72. But the company looks to be on the right track so I would value your views on the future prospects for the company.

Happy Holidays to everyone at 5i.

Q: Hello 5I
My holdings include, with total portfolio weights::
ATD.B (4.65%); BYD.UN (5.65%); CP (3.65); CSU (3.50%); GSY (4.6%); WSP (4.20%); ZEM (4.5%)

I have concern about a possible recession and economic slow down, and I would like to structure the equities in my portfolio with a bit more of a conservative and defensive tilt.

I otherwise would want to keep these positions but do you see any of these 7 being less conservative and defensive? With my objective in mind, should any be reduced or eliminated?

thanks for your excellent service.

Q: More a comment than a question, I just read your answer to a question asked by David. My understanding of Sangoma current cash and debt position is the following : on July 16, 2019, Sangoma closed a short-form bought deal prospectus offering of 14,846,500 common shares, at a price of $1.55 per common share for aggregate gross proceeds of $23,012,075. As of June 30, 2019, Sangoma had $11,724,000 in cash, therefore, it is fair to say that on July 16 Sangoma had ±$34,700,000 in cash ($23,012,075 + $11,724,000).

Following the acquisition of VoIP Innovations, Sangoma has drawn approximately C$46 million from a credit line provided by BMO and TD. Approximately CDN$22 million will be used to pay off all existing debt and around CDN$24 million to fund this acquisition. Since the acquisition is for US36,000,000 or ±CDN$48,000,000, Sangoma will withdraw CDN$24,000,000 from its cash reserve leaving approximately CDN$10,7000,000 in cash and will be have a debt of CDN$46 million.
