Q: I made the mistake of buying 200 shares of Ballard @$46.50 a couple of months ago just before it commenced its early-February fall from an all-time high. At the current price (~$30), I am tempted to double down with another 200 shares to bring my avg share price cost to ~$38, representing about 4% of my portfolio, a level with which I am comfortable. Am I nuts, or is BLDP poised to reward my faith and patience over the medium term (5 years)?

Thanks for your insights!

Q: Is $60 M for three dispensaries in the Philadelphia area a good deal? What sort of revenue could TRUL generate from these dispensaries?

My ‘back of the envelope’ calculations:
o # of dispensaries at end of 2020: 75
o 11 added in the 4th quarter, so lets say ~64 dispensaries made full contributions for 2020 (I have not checked if there were earlier dispensary additions in 2020)
o 2020 total revenue was 521,533,000
o 521,533,000 / 64 = 8,148,953 average revenue / dispensary

So to pay $60M for 3 dispensaries seems a little rich.
I have no idea of the addressable market for these new dispensaries.

Thanks!

Q: Can I have your opinion of this plant base frozen food company please ?

There is a december investor presentation on their web site and they plan a pretty agressive expansion over the coming years.

This market (frozen food) is pretty crowded in my opinion and do you think they have a special product ? I know they are integrated vertically and have factories in Italy and California. Costco Wall Mart and Target are big clients for them.

Thanks !

Q: Hi 5i team!,

What is your opinion of the acquisition today by Converge Technologies (CTS)?
Is it a big deal (accretive) for the company vs prior acquisitions or simply a nice tuck in?
Is it still considered a good small cap add/buy in a basket of small caps?
It is up 11% today so it looks like the market likes the deal!

Cheers,
Steve
