Q: Hi,

I have a small position in Sangoma and am considering selling and adding to another tech company. Going forward however do you consider the macro space in which Sangoma operates to be a driver for growth or would you see other tech companies with greater potential and if so, a few names would be helpful. I recognize Sangoma is a small company.

Thanks

Q: I noticed a number of questions recently concerning STC and I thought your members may be interested in the response I received when I asked my Hedge Fund (who follow the stock closely and are bullish) about the recent results:

We thought the STC quarter was strong. Gross profits were up 20% YoY and cash earnings were up 89% YoY. They lowered revenue guidance but increased EBITDA guidance.
Recurring revenue (service business) as a % of revenue

20% in 2018

30+% in 2019

40-50% in 2020

*Margins have followed suite

The conference call was very informative and the focus continues to be growing recurring revenues and profits

Feel free to publish this if you think it is of value.

Cheers
Scott

thanks

Q: I own CSU, DSG, ENGH, OTEX, SHOP, LSPD, KXS and STS and was thinking of adding GIB.A once the stock settles down a bit. I'm looking to increase my tech sector . Would you add to the existing holdings or would you recommend adding GIB.A to take advantage of the recent pullback?
Thanks for your service.
