Q: Greetings
Petrofrontier has recently abandoned it's exploration for oil on it's land claims in Australia. The company has $10 million in cash, no debt and 80 million shares outstanding. So it has cash on hand of 12.5c per share and the stock trades near 4c per share. Considering the current low price of oil and that potential farm in partners are reducing spending in general how likely is it this company might just shut down and return that cash to shareholders? Or does that put the current management team out of a job and I am merely dreaming out loud here?
Thanks
Tim

Q: Hello % 5 I Team ,
Could you provide your insight in this small company.
Would you recommend it a good buying opportunity. The 3 year chart looks attractive. It is indirectly in the gaming space.
Thank you for your reply

Q: Fission Uranium recently announced it's maiden resource estimate which seemed to surpass expectations. I know this sector has been unloved. and we may be a few years away from working thru any uranium supply surplus. Wondering if it might not be too early for forward thinking investors, to consider the uranium space, and in particular FCU. Do you consider it a potential take out candidate somewhere in the future? Thanks very much.

Q: I would like to get your opinion on Espial Group's recent contract win. Do you think it is material to the company? I recently bought a half position in ESP (3% weighting in a 15 stock small-mid cap growth portfolio) and I am considering filling my position. My other tech holdings are TLA, SVC, PHO, and WIN; however, SVC is also only a half position. Which would you prefer filling?

Thanks for the great service!

Q: What is your view on Contagious Gaming Inc.(CNS). The volume picked up after a long decline. Also concerning all gaming companies, would the availability of software playing perfect poker (www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-30718558) discourage online palyers? Thanks for your great service.

Q: My question is on M-x as well as M.PR-x as I hold some of each. How do you feel about this stock going forward? What do you think of its underlying holdings in our current low energy environment? How much of their business is Alberta based? And how safe is the cash flow in terms of covering their preferred dividend? Thanks for your help.

Q: My question is general in nature though uses phm as an example. PHM recently announced two LOI. The purchase price will be cash and PHM shares (in one case some 7 million shares). My question is, when a company purchases another in this way, where do the shares come from? Also, would this type of purchase tend to put a lid on price appreciation as the purchase shares hit the market? Thanks as always and best for the new year.

Q: I've been searching for relatively cheap canadian pharma stocks that have postive cashflow and earnings growth. I recently came across CRH Medical, a recent recommendation of J.Donville. After accounting for the recent aquisition (trailing earning, some dilution, and debt), to me, it still appears quite cheap relative to the sector. I realize there is some execution risk, and now a fair bit of debt, but it seems reasonable. How do you assess this company and compare it to other small/growthy names in the sector? I currently have a half position in CRH and I am thinking about doubling down. I also own PHM and CPH in the sector but they don't look as cheap anymore. Thanks.

Q: Hello team,
Do you have any comments on today's news wire release on the execution of a letter of intent to acquire a regional business. This is the first time I have heard of this term...it is non-binding and the subject company's financials are unaudited - and yet is sounds like a done deal. Also the news wire release is not for distribution in the U.S. as per the preamble. Should this have an impact on the stock price at present? Thanks

Q: You have not been asked about IVW for some time. It has done nothing for years and now at $0.05 it seems to be at a multi-year low. Provided it can survive until economies around the world begin to pick up, it may be a good "bottom fishing" opportunity. Do you have a current view on this Company?
