Investment Q&A

Q: please comment on the Q4 and year end. This quote from CEO, is it just hype or is this company ready to start increasing customers and revenues? Also does the insiders and institutional share holders tell us anything?
"Though financial performance in FY22 was below our expectations, I am confident in the platform we have created for growth in FY23" said John Proctor, President and CEO of Martello. "The end of the 2022 fiscal year marked an inflection point for Martello towards an absolute focus on becoming a Microsoft Modern Workplace optimization leader. In FY22 we built the product, sales channels and go-to-market strategy to address this market, one which has greater potential than anything Martello has ever done. We are seeing early indicators of momentum around the Vantage DX solution just a few months after launching.

Q: Everyone, you suggested a number of micro caps stocks rather than one or two. Recently you have suggested MTLO and PNP. Can you recommend another three? Individually I will invest $1000 each and with the assumption that they could go to zero. Many thanks.

Q: Everyone, a year or so ago I asked about investing a small amount of money ($500) in a long shot. You suggested Martello - well I sold out after a 50% loss. Do you have another idea to invest $500, with the thought that I could lose 100% of my investment. Clayton

Q: Martello shares have settled into the 5 cent range with 321 million shares outstanding for a capitalization of $16 million. Could you please offer your interpretation of the recently reported financial results, the financial means available on the books to fuel the day-to-day operations of the company, and whether the company has the means to be a going concern? Also at what rate are new shares issued on an annual basis (as compensation or any purpose) to dilute existing shareholders? Thanks from an appreciative member.

Q: Could you comment on the recent closing of the non- brokered private placement to insiders. Is this a meaningful amount and could it help move the company forward. Also what does second tranche mean. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i Team - In your opinion what are the chances of Martello seeing a January bounce and what would need to happen with the company for this to happen. All the best to everyone for a Happy Christmas Season and in the New Year.

Q: What would be a good replacement for Martello. You had some suggestions a while ago but am just looking for a couple of up-to-date ideas given the recent market volatility. Thanks.

Q: Hi,
Thoughts on numbers for MTLO today?
thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team - I am considering selling my shares in Martello for a capital loss and possibly buying it back after 30 days. In your opinion is there anything that could move this stock forward in that time period. Also I am wondering if it's really worth buying back at all. Could you provide some fundamentals including cash position, level of debt and insider buying or selling. In the past you have mentioned the high pedigree of management. Does that still hold. Thanks.

Q: ZOMD The company issued a press release on October 27th that it expects to see at least 80% revenue growth this year. What comparable company do you suggest that would help in determining a possible value of the shares?

Q: I asked this last week but haven't seen a response yet, so ignore if the answer is pending. I hold these as a basket of spec stocks looking for extreme growth. I've done well with all but MTLO and I'm wondering if it still fits here or if I should let it go and roll into the remainder. Would you have a favorite one or two from this list? Any you would run away from?

Q: Hi there,

I am looking to consolidate and sell some stocks. I have listed my stocks that are not performing and would rather invest elsewhere.

Any of the above stocks recommended to hold / sell?

Thanks in advance.

Q: Any thoughts on the earnings release this morning?
thank-you

Q: Hello!

The YTD chart is dispiriting and Martello is now on the cusp of being a penny stock.

Is there any new information about the company or the sector? Any change in your assessment?

Thanks and kind regards,

Marc.

Q: Can I have your comments on FY results. This is a very small position - fun money.

Q: Gud,martello,mission ready.
Companies that have been very disappointing.
What are your thoughts ,is there any hope or cut the losses.

Q: Have had patience with this one for awhile now and need your expert analysis on tailwinds and expectations for the future or leave and revisit later. What are their expectations for this months earnings?
Thanx Gary

Q: I have been following and have read the q&a on this stock as a speculative buy ( 10 % weighting in TFSA which I believe you will say is way too high ? ) for quite some time and have some questions/ comments.
1. Management is intriguing with co chairs, which I consider messy. One is a salesman who hit it rich in the weed business (Canopy), while the other is respected and experienced ( Mathews). Their CEO is experienced ( but still with no cash in the game? ) Management a positive/ negative?
2.Their products are promising and they have made the right kind of acquisitions. Agree?
3. You have commented that the stock has been ignored and is a wait and see such like GUD.
Wondering if the market is less excited with small tech companies at the moment. Does this create the opportunity to jump in a a good price or to stay away from for a while longer?
4. Balance sheet seemed fine; true ?
Your thoughts are appreciated.
Derek

Q: I have $399 cash in my TFSA. Do you of a speculative stock that I could buy, with the understanding that I may never see the $399 again.
As always thanks for your great help.
Clayton

Q: Hello,
Thoughts on the $5M bought deal? Do you still like the potential of this company longer term? I wonder if buying into the weakness here makes sense longer term?
thanks
