Q: I like companies that are based on a subscription model. With recurring revenues and growth "banking" on acquiring new customers, it would appear to be a path towards increased profitability and less risk. Aside from the obvious candidates, Netflix, Adobe, Crowdstrike, Microsoft and even Disney, can you identify a few companies in the US and in Canada that receive their revenue largely on subscriptions, that are not mega corporations already but exhibit strong growth.

Q: I have been watching Weight Watchers (WTW) ever since Oprah put her considerable marketing support behind the company and it seemed to beat estimates quarter after quarter. I felt like I missed the boat when it went from $12 to $105 from Jan 2017 - June 2018. Ever since it has dropped like a rock to its present $35 price. My questions are 1) what caused this huge fall and is it over sold? 2) what are the current EPS estimates and PE? 3) when do they report next? 4) what is their debt load and is it manageable? and finally 5) do you think it offers a compelling entry point?

Many thanks
Scott
