My guest on the show today is Roger Fan, Founder and CIO of RF Capital Management. Firstly, shout out to Chris Abbott from 1035 Capital for the introduction. Roger runs a long-biased investment firm in LA that invests primarily in equities, and focuses on nanocaps and special situations. Their objective is to compound at 15-20%+ over the long term with a concentrated portfolio and minimal/no leverage or shorting. I invited Roger on to learn more about his strategy and how he intends to achieve these returns. Roger mentioned a number of names during the interview today and for full disclosure, I am not a shareholder in any of them.

My guest on the show today is Deiya Pernas, Co-Founder and Analyst at Pernas Research. Growth, runway for growth, greenfield opportunities, current market penetration, competitive landscape: these are all concepts we need to think about when looking at MicroCaps, and we've talked at length on this show about. The idea, or the ability, to conceptualize the future for any given company is a skill I think we all wish we had mastered (then we'd all be extremely wealthy), and yet, is what makes investing in Small, MicroCaps so damn fun. Deiya and his team at Pernas Research focus heavily on companies where their future is brighter than their current state, in other words, how the conceptualization of their futures are different from market perception. We dig into this idea today, and provide a few examples to illustrate what Deiya means. Deiya mentioned a number of names during the interview today and for full disclosure, I am not a shareholder in any of them.

My guest on the show today is Colin King, Partner at Circle City Capital Group, Inc., and known as @valuedontlie on Twitter/X. I think we've all seen those memes and videos of folks who left their amazing job at Goldman Sacks to buy multiple small businesses, then of course, if you subscribe to their newsletter they'll show you how they did it. All jokes aside, it's a strategy that has worked time and again for many folks out there, however, buying and operating small private businesses is not as easy as social media would make you think, goes without saying. I invited on Colin to talk about his journey to launching and running this strategy at Circle City Capital Group. Colin mentioned a number of names during the interview today and for full disclosure, I am not a shareholder in any of them.

My guest on the show today is Tristan Waine, better known as @hurdle_rate on Twitter/X and Editor, Author of the Hurdle Rate newsletter on Substack. We've talked many times here about the circle of competence, investing in what you know, looking at companies that produce goods or services that you actually consume, a style of investing, or more specifically, idea generation that Peter Lynch made famous. In our conversation today, Tristan and I talk extensively about this concept as it pertains to his investing style and philosophy. Specifically, we thought we could up the boring business ante, by talking about the sexiest businesses alive: accounting and document management software. In all seriousness, we have a great time, and Tristan provides some valuable insight on the topic of investing in what you know. Tristan mentioned a number of names during the interview today and for full disclosure, I am not a shareholder in any of them.

My guest on the show today is Leon, better known as @mavix_leon on Twitter/X, and writer/editor of Underfollowed Stocks Newsletter on Substack. As his publication indicates, Leon is all about finding underfollowed investing opportunities with little to no institutional following, a natural fit for our show here. I invited him on to better understand his approach here, plus: European Small/MicroCaps, disassociating from FOMO and his thesis on Shelly Group $SLYG. Leon mentioned a number of names during the interview today and for full disclosure, I am not a shareholder in any of them.

My guest on the show today is Dylan Marrello, better known as @ragingbullcap on Twitter/X. I've been following Dylan for a while now and wanted to invite him on to learn more about investing strategy, philosophy, and most interestingly, what investing themes he's looking at right now. As a natural contrarian, we jammed on a bunch of these ideas, including: counter cyclicality, offshore oil drilling, commercial real estate, coal, buying scarce assets, inflation protection, and more! We also talk at length about his largest position, Cipher Pharmaceuticals.

Dylan mentioned a number of names during the interview today and for full disclosure, I am not a shareholder in any of them.

My guest on the show today is Paul Cerro, CIO of Cedar Grove Capital Management. Paul was recently on Andrew Walker's Yet Another Value Podcast having a conversation about Red Cat Holdings $RCAT - a company we actually interviewed, now way back in the day, in 2019 when they were still on the Pink Sheets. He did an awesome job on the show, and invited him on today to learn more about his investing philosophy, strategy and why it's not necessarily bottom fishing when looking at MicroCaps.

My guest on the show today is Nick Blitterswyk, CEO of UGE International. On May 29, 2024, UGE announced an arrangement agreement for going private transaction with NOVA Infrastructure Fund for an all-cash consideration of C$2.00 per common share, a 270% premium to the closing price of the common shares on May 28, 2024. The company officially closed the planned take-private transaction on August 15, 2024. Today's interview has a few factors at play here:

1. We've done quite a few interviews recently here, i.e., with Mathieu Martin and Paul Andreola, about how M&A has been hot, particularly in Canada, for the last 12-18 months, with no signs of slowing down.

2. I've known Nick now for almost 10 years, having first interviewed him back in 2015, and have covered the UGE journey from beginning to now conclusion of their life as a public company. So, I wanted to share with you all a conversation about Nick's experience as a MicroCap public company CEO, what it means to run a MicroCap public company, what happened and why now was the time to go forward with the transaction to go private, lessons learned, insights to pass on about his experience being a MicroCap CEO and more! Now that the deal has officially closed, I really appreciated Nick's candor and hopefully a lot can be gleaned from this episode that the entire MicroCap space can learn from, as well as a glimpse behind the thought process when faced with the prospect of staying public vs. being acquired/going private.
