Q: Questions on Topicus:

What makes Topicus different from any other software company - i.e. what makes it more attractive relative to others?

Since it's operations are European, does it currently trade at comparable European valuations?

The economic outlook for Europe appears to be worse than North America. Is this not a concern over the short to medium term?

How do Topicus' current metrics compare to when it first traded?

If you were to choose 3 highest-conviction Canadian growth stocks with similar market cap / risk profile / management quality, would Topicus be one of them?

Q: I'm playing around with a screener and trying to find potential multibaggers. I've been screening for ROE and ROIC greater than 20%. What other metrics would you suggest for this screen that would include quality potential multibaggers but exclude the crappy companies that just show up due to 1 year of high ROIC & ROE. Thx

Q: Hi 5i,

I have small positions in each of these three travel businesses. I was thinking of selling one to add to the other two, in an effort to be more efficient in my holdings. Would this be a good idea or would the diversification of holding all three be worthwhile?

If selling one, which would be your choice and why? I know you have recommended BKNG in the past but I sometimes wonder whether the other two have a stronger moat?

Growth investor with a long-term time frame.

Thank you, Doris
