Andrew PinkReally likes this whole segment of e-commerce and logistics. A very clear winner in the space. Lots of acquisitions. Buys intellectual property, brings it in-house, rebrands and sells it. Cross-selling opportunities are pretty phenomenal.
Andrew PinkLots of room to grow. Pressure from higher interest rates will push companies to automate. As global trade unwinds, in a good position to help clients with complex logistics.
Michael DecterRevenues would have been $3.9 million higher used last year's FX rates or $1.7 million higher if we'd used last quarter's FX rates.
At the end of the quarter, had $189 million in cash, and we're debt-free with an undrawn $350 million line of credit.
Remains well capitalized, cash-generating, debt-free and ready to continue to invest in business.

Stockchase InsightsDSG-T vs. OTEX-T which to sell to raise cash? DSG-T, if you own it, you would have done very well, but the fair market value is 78% lower than where it is at now. There is a lot of momentum behind it but not a lot of value. OTEX-T is trading right at its fair market value and has not been above that in ten years. He would sell either one if you want a source of cash.
Great company. Overvalued. Pandemic and e-commerce have been a boon. Growth both organic and by its acquisition spree. Trades at 71x earnings. His preference is for Open Text, which has a larger market and has grown more quickly. OTEX trades at 14x earnings.
