Q: What is 5i's thoughts about Sangoma's bought deal financing announced this morning at $1.55. Despite the dilution is it good for current shareholders given the Company's track record? Will it improve valuation metrics (trading multiples) going forward? Currently Sangoma trades less then 1X sales which seems very cheap against their peer group and other small caps.

Q: Would appreciate your analysis of their Q3 earnings that were released after close yesterday. At first glance, they look to be pretty solid.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
For the third quarter of fiscal 2019, sales were $28.92 million, 78% higher than in the same quarter last year and the seventeenth quarter in a row in which sales have grown from the prior year. For the first time, services revenue exceeded $10 million, continuing to grow in both absolute and relative terms.

Q: You mentioned that Sangoma Technologies got upgraded by Acumen Capital. What is their new target price? With a current market cap about $90 million do think the stock price and multiples will jump when the market cap exceeds $100 million? For example based on last quarter's revenue run rate the stock trades only 0.75 X sales despite its strong growth rate, profitability and good balance sheet.

Q: My small cap portfolio currently consists of Macro Enterprise, Sangoma Technologies, and Gran Columbia Gold. I’m looking for 1-2 more niche small cap names to add to that list. Are there a couple others that interest you right now? Thanks.

Q: At bare minimum should Sangoma's stock price trade at least 1X sales based on the current sales quarterly run rate of $30M or $120M annually (which is a mix of recurring) just reported therefore a stock price closer to $2.30? The Company continues to exceed on revenue growth, EBITDA and cash flow expectations and trailing net income has little meaning for a company making big acquisitions because of one-time integration costs . From management comments the Company's outlook is very strong and they continue to execute on paying down debt. Other Company's trade at more then 3 times future sales with no track record! I am missing something?

Q: I noticed 5i has dropped Reliq a growth stock from your portfolio. Would STC, QST, ITC & CWL be good growth stock replacements given their current value?

Q: Hi
Sangoma recently announced the purchase of Digium for US28,000,000. Once the transaction is signed, Sangoma intends to finance the deal by borrowing approximately $21 million. The new credit facility will be drawn in US dollars, and will be repaid over 7 years and is expected to have an interest rate of 6.0% to 6.5% per annum at closing. What do you think will be the monthly or annual payments? Will the payments represent only interest costs or will they include a portion of capital?
On page 8 of the investor presentation, it is written that Digium has about $15,000,000 in tax NOLs. Is it fair to assume that Digium has lost $15,000,000 over several years and that Sangoma will be able to use the tax NOLs in order to avoid paying taxes on future US earnings?
Is the Nols considered an asset? Will it show up in Sangoma's balance sheet?
If Digium did not have $15,000,000 in tax NOLs, what would have been a fair transaction price?
What is the approximate value of $15,000,000 in tax NOLs?
What is the approximate percentage of the purchase price attributable to the $15,000,000 in tax NOLs?
Thank you and have a nice day.

Q: My first reaction to the big deal announced this morning was to sell all my shares. I don’t understand buying a company for so much that is ebitda breakeven. I realize the recurring revenue is good and maybe this gives them cross selling opportunities but will this deal not result in diluted eps and ebitda/share? What’s your take on he deal? Thanks

Q: I have complied a list of what I believe are all high quality microcap stocks with current market valuations that are still very attractive and have good upside potential over the next 12 months. How does 5i ranks these stocks and am I missing some obvious microcap stocks with similar traits?
