Q: My recent questions about stock charts - May 9, I don't navigate much outside questions and answers and you had indicated it would be put into Forums to find out any indication about free stock charts. How do I navigate around the Forums to find out about stock charts? Also navigating around reports. I found 4 reports - TMA, AHF, EXE and RIP. I imagine there are more reports so could you tell me how I go about finding them? Thanks Dennis

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: Hi 5i,

In the last proxy & general meeting shareholders were to vote on a "blank cheque" policy for preferred shares I believe. I did not see results for the vote of this. Do you know what happened?

Would preferred shares dilute the value of the current common shares?
Are they for private investors or to be listed on the stock exchange?
Do you think this is a form of a "backup" or added plan to deleverage the company faster?
Would someone like BlackRock be interested in this type of investment as opposed to buying the whole company?

Thank you, Shane
