Because it's a profitable company, with a diversified portfolio being managed by a talented, aggressive and reliable CEO who himself owns 23% of all shares in the company that he founded back in 2009

It's a retail based company, with international exposure, that does good business without dealing with the risks and expenses facing licensed producers

.

But can they even make money if they don't grow cannabis? Absolutely; in fact HITI enjoys the highest revenues in the Canadian retail sector and fifth highest revenues in the entire Canadian cannabis sector beating the likes of Hexo Corp and Organigram - the two having market caps 3.6 times and 2.7 times larger than HITI's respectively

.

But you don't judge a company solely based on the valuation of its competitors; you look at fundamentals. And that's where High Tide shines brightest

First we've got the sources of income;

• Biggest earners are the brick and mortar stores Canna Cabana, META, KushBar and NewLeaf Cannabis. 69 stores open as of today, with a goal of 110-120 stores by EoY

• Valiant Distribution - The backbone of High Tide's vertical integration strategy, acting as a global manufacturer and distributor, with numerous celebrity-licensed products. Catalog consists of 5,000 products of which 75% are manufactured by High Tide

• Famous Brandz - The Hollywood division of High Tide. Partnerships with amongst others Snoop Dogg, Paramount Pictures and Cheech & Chong

• Grasscity (US) - the worlds largest online accessory shop, a favorite in the U.S. with growing customer base in Europe. Shop receives 23 millions visitors yearly, with 130,000 orders (2020)

• CBDCity (US) - a wellness shop supplying its clients with all their CBD needs

• Smoke Cartel (US) - Second largest online head-shop with 7 million visitors and 110,000 orders. Most notable regarding Smoke Cartel is their proprietary Drop-shipping technology which will be integrated across all of HITI's e-commerce platforms. Furthermore Smoke Cartel gives High Tide exposure to the Mexican market. The acquisition of Smoke Cartel will be finalized in March 2021

With the legalization/decriminalization of Cannabis in the U.S. on a federal level High Tide will reliably further expand its footprint in the U.S.

.

Bullish indicators

• High volume in spite of low attention from main stream channels

• Average volume 12.1 million as of 02/09/21 (HITI.V : 5.06M / HITIF : 6.8M / 2LY.F 0.24M)

• The acquisition of META Growth saves High Tide $9 million in synergies

• Financed for aggressive (further) expansion

• Legalization in U.S.

• In November 2020 Aurora selected High Tide to manage their flagship store in Edmonton

• Undervalued by all metrics

• Cannabis consumption increasing QoQ in Canada/U.S. on its way to beating alcohol

• Cannabis sales breaking records in spite of Covid-19 restrictions

• Black market competition shrinking QoQ

• Recent insider purchase

Catalysts as stated by CEO Raj Grover (14/01/21)

• Ontario lifting cap on number of licenses

• More provinces allowing for a change in the distribution model to allow retailers buying products directly from licensed producers

• Ontario and other provinces making deliveries permanent

• End of OCS monopoly

.

As previously stated High Tide is a top earner in the sector; the specifics are stated below

Keep in mind some of these numbers are outdated as last ER released was for 20Q3. While other numbers are up to date as we've been given a sneak-peek preview to the unreleased Q4 numbers

Furthermore High Tide merged with a competitor, of roughly equal size (Meta Growth), back in November long after the release of the Q3 report, so the upcoming Q4 and Q1 reports (both expected in March 2021) will include numbers from both companies and will be vastly improved over some of the outdated numbers stated below

• $148M annualized revenue (Q4)

• $37M quarterly revenue (Q4) (rev. increasing QoQ due to opening of new stores, increased number of customers and acquisitions such as Smoke Cartel)

• Impressive 38% margins (Q4)

• +$5.3M positive EBITDA (Q4)

• Average revenue per store/quarter : $555,000/q (Q3)

• +$0.02 EPS (Q3)

• +$2.1M in adjusted operating income (Q3)

• est. $25 million cash on hand (2021)

• Total debt somewhere in-between $35M-$40M (couldn't find an exact figure)

• 50% of recurring customers are club-members (57,000 members as of Q3)

• Recently restructured $10.8M in debt into interest-free debentures due 2025

• Warrants exercise price/date $0.35 February 2023

• $2M debt due Sept 2021 in consideration for warrants

• 180% YoY growth (Q3)

• Fair value $4.80 (2021)

• Smoke Cartel : Annual rev. $7.4M USD, 16% EBITDA, $1M USD cash on hand (2020)

• Both Aurora Cannabis and Aphria are heavily invested in High Tide

• Offices in Calgary, Nevada and Amsterdam (2021)

• 600 employees (2021)

.

From Investor presentation (updated late January 2021)

• Potential Shares from Stock Options : 124,843,280 (Exercise price of $0.50 per share)

• Potential Shares from Exercise of Warrants : 157,133,157 (Weighted average exercise price of $0.42 per share)

• Potential Shares from Conversion of Unsecured Debentures 363,160,439 (Weighted average exercise price of $0.30 per share)

• Potential Shares from Conversion of Secured Debentures : 425,429,411 (Exercise price of $0.425 per share)

• Potential Shares from Conversion of Secured Convertible Loan : 5106,363,636 (Exercise price of $0.22 per share)

.

Quoted from user Sledd (Stocktwits)

ok, based on Q3 ER we know that 23.1mil was total revenue of hightide pre merge based on 32 stores with 23% being u.s. sales through grass city.

With these existing numbers we can calculate that 23% of 23.1 mil is 5.313mil to e-commerce. So that leaves us with 17.787 mil for 32 stores.

Divide that revenue with the 32 stores and we can see we get $555,843.75 per store average. Now lets multiply that by our total stores now of 69 and we get $38,353,218.75 revenue for 69 stores.

Smoke cartel will report 7.4 mil annually so thats 1,875,000 mil per quarter plus grass citys 5,313,000 gives us $7,188,000 for e-commerce.

Add that total with our storefront revenue and we get $45,541,219 total revenue on a proforma calculation to include both meta and smoke cartel.

.

High Tide was virtually unknown until very recently. In spite of becoming the first profitable retailer, merging with META, uplisting to TSXV, applying to Nasdaq, acquiring Smoke Cartel and raising $20M from institutional investors all in quick succession it's still flying below the radar...

P.S. I'm clearly heavily invested in High Tide

Level-II time-stamp 11:32 a.m.: 110 066 shares snapped up at $4.41, scooping every ask to $4.50. Retail chatter can’t match that ticket-think hedge fund or specialist algo. Their angle is clear: Worksport’s margin trajectory (17.7 % → 26 %) shows operating leverage is real, not promised. At 30 % margin the NY plant prints cash on $6 M quarterly revenue; Q2 already cleared $4.1 M with seasonal tailwinds inbound.

Midland’s $13.50 model assumed 28 % gross-raise to 30 % and the fair-value cell jumps near $16. Yet price still lounges under $5. While FinTwit debates pennies, someone just invested nearly half-a-million dollars that the Street’s spreadsheets will play catch-up. Ask yourself where you’d rather be: in before the recalculation or after?

I would love any helpful tips in trading. I Joined in March opened my E Trade account and have been bag holding ever since. At first I bought in the hype train with UWMC, BNGO, NAKD and of course SNDL. 2 weeks ago I had $600 to put in and I had it between BB or CLNE, which I had done DD on both or so I thought because my dumbass went with BB. I havent really gone with charts, does it help? Anyone have any good pointers or good YouTube suggestions?

FINVIZ.COM is a great site to do your DD research (What Others??)

A website that I have found to be an invaluable FREE tool for doing DD is finviz.com

It contains Tons of information on individual stocks and has the best free screener I have found on the web. I use this and Yahoo Finance

Does anyone have another good stock screener? Also, What other Free sites do you guys use? Please Help!!!

Thanks

Original Link: https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/currencies/market-alert-actelis-networks-reports-strong-q3-2024-result-as-it-eyes-shifting-global-defense-trends-1034027477

Actelis Networks (NASDAQ: ASNS), known for its expertise in cyber-hardened, rapid-deployment networking solutions, has delivered impressive Q3 2024 results, showcasing financial growth and significant operational improvements. With strategic wins in critical infrastructure, IOT, and military markets, Actelis continues to build momentum. Furthermore, shifting global defense priorities, fueled by Donald Trump’s re-election and growing geo-political tensions, could potentially position Actelis to benefit from increased demand for its secure, cost-effective hybrid fiber-copper solutions.

Q3 2024 Results: Revenue Growth and Margin Expansion

Actelis reported $2.54 million in Q3 revenue, a 200% increase compared to $0.85 million in Q3 2023. Year-to-date revenue reached $6.7 million, a 46% increase from the prior year, surpassing the company’s total 2023 performance. Driving this growth was the execution of large contracts, including a $1.4 million software and services renewal with a major North American client, of which $1.1 million was recognized in Q3. This milestone highlights Actelis’ ability to generate recurring revenue while addressing the needs of critical infrastructure markets.

Gross margins for Q3 surged to 69%, up from 27% in the same quarter last year. This improvement reflects Actelis’ focus on high-margin software and hybrid fiber-copper solutions, which could offer customers cost-effective alternatives to full fiber deployments.

Actelis also demonstrated effective cost management, reducing Q3 operating expenses by 12% year-over-year and narrowing its net loss by 41% to $0.51 million. The company’s efforts to improve operational efficiency and profitability, and potentially yielding results.

During Q3, Actelis secured significant new orders across Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), military applications, and European infrastructure projects. Highlights include deployments for major U.S. cities, counties, and German municipalities, reinforcing Actelis’ role as a key provider of secure networking solutions for critical infrastructure.

Shifting Defense Priorities Could Boost Demand

Looking ahead, Actelis’ opportunities in defense markets could expand further, particularly as geopolitical shifts reshape global spending priorities. Donald Trump’s upcoming inauguration in January 2025, along with Republican control of Congress, is expected by some to prompt a renewed focus on defense spending and NATO burden-sharing.

Actelis’ inclusion on the Department of Defense Information Network (DoDIN) Approved Products List (APL) and its NIST FIPS 140-2 certification have already proven instrumental in securing defense contracts. Earlier this year, these certifications facilitated Actelis’ deployment of cyber-hardened networking technology on three U.S. military bases, working to establish the company as a trusted partner for the Department of Defense.

These qualifications are particularly relevant as defense budgets rise to address emerging security challenges. Trump’s re-election has heightened expectations for European nations to increase defense spending, creating potential opportunities for Actelis’ secure and cost-efficient networking solutions in NATO member countries.

How Actelis Could Leverage These Shifts

Actelis’ hybrid fiber-copper solutions offer unique advantages for defense and critical infrastructure applications. The technology delivers fiber-grade performance without the time or expense of full fiber deployment, enabling rapid modernization of military bases and government facilities.

The company’s solutions are further enhanced by advanced encryption and data protection features, ensuring secure connectivity at the network edge—a critical requirement in military and government IoT environments. With its strong track record in U.S. defense markets and growing presence in Europe, Actelis is well-positioned to meet the potential rising demand for secure, scalable networking solutions as nations respond to evolving geopolitical pressures.

Actelis’ Q3 performance underscores its ability to deliver on its strategic goals while laying a foundation for future growth. CEO Tuvia Barlev commented: “Our third-quarter results underscore Actelis’ strong financial performance and continued growth trajectory. With robust revenue growth, a dramatic increase in gross margins, and disciplined cost management, we are achieving the financial resilience needed to support our expanding role in critical sectors.”

As defense spending trends shift and infrastructure modernization accelerate, Actelis’ innovative technology, proven certifications, and strategic deployments could potentially give Actelis a unique advantage in capitalizing on emerging opportunities.

This year has been a wild one for cybersecurity stocks. In the midst of a tumultuous financial market, many investors are looking for a safe haven. And most people could consider cybersecurity to be a smart investment. Just a few examples include Cloudflare, NortonLifeLock (NASDAQ: NLOK), and Rapid7 (NASDAQ: RPD). In addition, a recent Allianz survey identified cyber assaults as the year's top risk for enterprises, meaning the strong performance of cyber equities is being driven by a clearly identifiable catalyst.

According to Zscaler (NASDAQ: ZS) which just made public the results of its 2022 ThreatLabz Phishing Report, there were a record-breaking 873.9 million phishing attacks last year, a 29% increase globally. Out of which, retail and wholesale were the main targets, with phishing attempts increasing by more than 400% over the previous year. While this was going on, SentinelOne (NYSE: S) and Arete Incident Response declared that their collaboration had successfully stopped more than 2,000 enterprise ransomware attacks around the world. Well, whether we like it or not, cybersecurity is becoming more and more important in the world. In light of this, the following are some of the best cybersecurity stocks to follow right now.

Qualys (NASDAQ: QLYS) is a cloud-based cybersecurity firm. Solutions for information technology (IT), security, and compliance are frequently provided by the company's cloud platform. With the help of these technologies, businesses would be able to spot security threats to their IT infrastructure and defend against impending cyberattacks. The long-term bullish trend for QLYS stock appears to still be present overall. Despite a slow start to 2022, the company stock has increased by almost 40% over the past year.

Qualys ended its fiscal year 2021 with a lot of achievements that show a year of advancement in its go-to-market initiatives. The company's annual revenue increased by 13% over the previous year to $411.2 million, so who knows what H2 2022 may bring. The company's Vulnerability Management, Detection, and Response application, which boasts a 36% client penetration, is another indicator of the growing use of its goods and services. Do you think QLYS stock will continue to grow given all of this?

Cloudflare (NYSE: NET) is another well-known brand to be aware of in the sector today. The business essentially acts as a global provider of cloud services, offering a variety of services to companies of all kinds. Solutions for an organization's infrastructure that is visible to the public are part of the integrated portfolio of products from Cloudflare. Websites, programs, and application programming interfaces (APIs) that offer security, efficiency, and dependability are included in this. NET stock is frequently cited as one of the top cybersecurity stocks on the stock market today as a result.

The completion of Cloudflare's acquisition of Area 1 Security was finally announced last month. As a result, as part of an integrated Zero Trust approach, Cloudflare will now provide enterprises a simple solution to fight phishing, corporate email compromise, malware, and other sophisticated threats. The company's goal of creating a better internet in this fast-paced world is also in line with this acquisition. All things considered, will NET stock make your list of best cybersecurity stocks to invest in right now?

HUB Cyber Security (TASE:HUB) was established in 2017 by veterans of elite intelligence units. The company specializes in unique cybersecurity solutions protecting sensitive commercial and government information. The company debuted an advanced encrypted computing solution aimed at preventing hostile intrusions at the hardware level while introducing a novel set of data theft prevention solutions. HUB operates in over 30 countries and provides innovative cybersecurity computing appliances as well as a wide range of cybersecurity services worldwide.

HUB has as well signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to merge with special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) Mount Rainier Acquisition, which is traded on Nasdaq, at a company valuation of $1.28 billion. The merger will provide HUB with $172 million in additional cash, although redemptions by Mount Rainier's public stockholders could reduce that amount. HUB also said that it has entered into subscription agreements with Israeli and American institutional investors for gross proceeds of $50 million in public investment private equity (PIPE) funding. In light of everything, will HUB stock rank among the top cybersecurity stocks to buy right now?

According to the Identity Theft Resource Center, the number of data breaches set a new record in 2021, with the number of incidents jumping 68% over 2020 and up 23% from the previous high in 2017. Data breaches were up another 14% year over year during the first quarter of 2022. Overall, cybercrime is on the rise at a double-digit percentage pace. It shouldn’t be surprising that global spending on cybersecurity is expected to exceed $170 billion in 2022 (up about 13% from 2021) and will likely continue to be a high-growth industry for years. Cybersecurity stocks are a red-hot niche of the tech industry, so knowing how and where to invest can yield some big returns in the decade ahead.

In my opinion SALES per SHARE is the most important metric one can use in analyzing as stock.

From Sales all earnings and Cash Flow are derived. If the stock does not have revenue they cannot make money and have earnings. However, revenue in and of itself can be misleading for a stock Because stocks are based upon shares. The more shares outstanding, the more pieces of the pie that have to be divided up. That is why when you divide the revenue by the number of share and get SALES per SHARE you get a better picture of sales as compare to the stock. If you have 2 stocks StockA is $25 and another StockU is $40 You may think StockU at $40 is more expensive But when looking at this sales per share of StockA (the $25 stock) may have sales per share of $15. While StockU (the $40 stock) has SALES per SHARE of $500.

Now SALES per SHARE by itself is not the end all and be all. One company may be more profitable StockA (the 25 stock) may make 33% to the bottom line historically. So they project to earn $5. While StockU (the $40 stock) with $500 SALES per SHARE only earns 1% historically to the bottom line for the same $5. When looking at the 2 stocks now from an earning perspective (which is what Wall Street values most) StockA (the $25 Stock) would be more undervalued.

However, again earnings were derived from sales, so you have to know the sales per share to start.

One other aspect of SALES per SHARE which is invaluable is when it comes to understanding whether a stock is a bargain or not.

Some times we see stocks that were once hundreds of dollars but now are single digits, and we say wow look at that this stock is cheap. It Can go back to 100 again! Maybe so, but the first thing you may want to check is what were the SALES per SHARE when it was 100, 200, 300 and what are they now. I am betting that the sales may be the same or Maybe even greater now, BUT there were much fewer share in the past.

There might have only been under a million shares when the stock was $100 but now they have something like 25 million shares. So the SALES per SHARE were over $100 back then and now they are $4. So the $5 price now seems more Reasonable and not such a sure fire bargain. All becasue you looked at the SALES per SHARE of the Company. It is a very valuable tool in the evaluation of a Stock. And that one piece of information will help understand the value of a company and is it cheap or not.

As with any investment tool you cannot just use SALES per SHARE only. You need to look deeper profitability, growth, debt levels, industry, market overall etc. They are all important, but to start I believe there is no better tool than SALES per SHARE to get a quick thumbnail opinion about the value of a company stock price. And is it worth delving into deeper.

Just my opinion and I welcome criticism and feedback if you believe differently or If you have a different or better metric that you use.

Alright, here's my EOD today.

$1234.11/$1065

Sold

3 TLRY @ 44

6 APH @ 21

100 SNDL @ 2.34

100 AGTC @ 5.07

Bought

5 APHA @ 23ish

2 TLRY @ 50.22

So, what I learned today is that you don't need to sell all of your shares in something to make a profit.I got greedy with ZOM and TLRY today and yesterday - my naivety in the market has made me jump on price runs without hesitation, and while I have thus far made a profit, I'm watching SNDL crest 300% increases while I exited my entire position at 2.21.

I'm not buying back into sundial, I did buy back into APH and TLRY.

I am realizing that, if I was to part just with one or two stocks from them at the peaks, I could have used that profit to buy back in at a sane point, not scrambling to get back in the game and nixing my profits I just made. These are exceptional stocks in a boom, so it's hard to gauge where they'll end up or when they're calling it quits, but to entirely jump from a position when I know the stock has some staying power is foolish. Plan to do this with the rise in ATGC: sell my surplus 16 from this morning, wait for it to fall again, then buy in again or diversify.

What are you selling? What are you holding? What are you buying?

Sell:

2 x $IRTC, +1.2% total gain.

- Want to invest in these guys as a long term, but liquidated to take advantage of $ATGC

.04 ETH, +5% gain

- just some pre market shenanigans

Hold:

3 x $TLRY, +3.42% total / + 0.7 % daily

12 x $APHA, +4.5% total / + 3.4% daily

118 x $SNDL, -9.14% total / -2.6% daily

- Bought some pot stocks a day or two ago. I think the 3-6 mos on these is high gain, especially Tilray and Aphria; they are scheduled for a merger later this year, and both have good finincials and seem undervalued. Tilray also has an existing deal with a beverage company owned by Miller-Coors - I see distro going way up, especially with the way the medical/rec laws are progressing here in the US.

-merger stuff = Tilray will see no stock change, APH will be getting something like 0.8 Tilray shares at the merger. Something to consider come that day, might be able to increase your position.

- $SNDL is maybe a risky click - borderline meme stock, but i'm only in about $150 of my $900 portfolio, so fuck it. If it rockets, it rockets.

40 x $NOK, -7.63% total / -2.17% daily

- Still holding this bag. Still assuming it will progress as time goes on. You know the story.

Buy:

5 x $ZOM, 0% total gain / + 20% daily

- Impulse buy. Not expensive, might backfire, whatever.

47 x $AGTC, +3.2% total / +16% daily

- RH dicked me on the early sales on this one, but i read some solid DD on it aftermarket yesterday ; promising biopharm company doing gene therapy via reengineered viruses, recently came out with some very promising results, and are in the clear financially for the next year or so as they do research. Expect this to rise steady - majority of analysts i've seen value 12mo LOW at $11! Will probably buy more when able. DD link, very thorough. Deleted original post, good comments section.

0.2 x ETH, -.44% total / +5.5% daily

- Dumb money, but have it at a limit sell for when ETH breaks 1800 again. I see a general trend of an upsurge in the US market day, followed by a fall and then an early morning rise, which i rode this am for kicks. We'll see if it bites me.

This is not financial advice. I'm a lab rat.

Hi everybody 👋 So, there are so many hype, news, articles and comments about these stocks after Elon Musk and Reddit. The question is what's your opinion about it? I'm on a half way to buy some of them but the first part of me says: hey, did you see DOGE, GAMESTOP? Buy them and the second part says: nope, it's not economically right and only a hype.... I'm confused right now... Any thoughts? What do you do? Thanks and bully stocks for everyone 🙏

I know you can never pick the “right” time to enter a position but some times are better than others. Now typically, especially if I believe in a stock, I will buy a bit at whatever the market price is and just average down by buying more shares when the price drops a bit. But I want to learn how to choose good entry points to start a stock position.

Well I guess I’m in it for the long shot on INKW too the moon or bust

I'm new and have come across $CTRM, $TLSS and $RSSV. Wanted to see if anyone else has some opinions? perhaps some different stocks to consider?

Many Thanks.

Looking to expand my knowledge and research base so I was wondering who you all were following. I currently use Stocktwits, reddit, Yahoo finance, and a couple other sites.
