Q: Hello Team 5i!

Can I have your opinion on Grande West Transportation. The stock was recently highlighted in a research report on Globe Investor. Company is looking to capture new market share with niche mid-size city buses to replace current full size ones made by competitors that operate 80% empty most of the time. The company is apparently qualified for the Buy America program, looking to the US to drive growth and is at the cusp of great earnings. Seems interesting. The next New Flyer (or their next acquisition)? The time to get on the bus or stay at the curb?

Thanks for all your help.

Dave

Q: TOS recently released results with revenue up from 0.15 million to 3.75 with a loss of $0.02.

Revenue growth is massive (albeit from a very low number). Is this growth expected to continue? Where will/could this company be in 1 - 3 years? Any idea when they expect to have positive earnings?

I'm a holder (~1% of portfolio) and wondering if I should add. I personally like the technology and progress of the company thus far but continue to seek your input.

Q: Since August 2016 has your interest in this little company been peaked more? Would this be a good growth prospect it seems to be chugging along well. Or could it possibly get bought by a bigger company one day?

Thanks

Q: AcuityAds (AT.v) reported excellent quarterly and year-end operating results this week, while showing impressive growth and execution from its acquisition of 140 Proof. Their acquisition of U.S.-based Visible Measures announced on Thursday seems unbelievably cheap and financing it at a 6% discount very reasonable. Liquidity remains an issue though some of the founders are releasing more of their extensive holdings as part of today's financing to increase supply.

Is 5i getting closer to having a look under the hood?

Q: Hi, you had commented a while back on Market Call that you needed to "do more work" on AcuityAds to look at growth potential versus valuation. Since there there has been additional news, including an aquisition today as well as the opening of an office in Europe. Have you had a chance yet to look at the company in more detail, and if so what is your current view? The CEO looks top-notch to me and they seem to be laying out a good path forward to make this a much bigger company.

Q: SVI is currently at $1.69 on the TSX Venture Exchange. Analysts high target price is $1.70. Current average buy recommendation is 1.25. However, the Parabolic SAR is at 1.74 and falling; MACD (0.04) is at the same level as the Signal and falling; the Histogram is at -0.003 and falling; the Price ROC is at 2.42% and falling; and the RSI is at 60.30 and holding. It made a profit of +0.01 in its last quater' it pays a dividend of 0.592%. Market Cap is $493.286 million. What is meant by a negative Beta (i.e. -0.415242?)
What has been driving the stock up since March of 2016 (i.e. 0.78 cents to $1.69; x2.2 approx.)?
Is this stock worth buying in a pull back?
Many thanks for this.
