Q: Hi 5i,
Please give your assessment of Ag Growth's Q report and the current dynamics for the company. It has had a nice recovery since bottoming under 25 and has been in an up-trend most of this year but I am wondering if this quarter's numbers indicate that the cycle is turning down again for AFN. Thanks!

Q: From my understanding the credit facilities weren't due before 2019. With this morning press release, it seem like it will result in a default. So is it the end for performance Sports Group?
