My guest on the show today is Mathieu Martin, Portfolio Manager at Rivemont Investments and Editor of the Stocks & Stones Newsletter. Recently, Canadian MicroCap buyouts have been gaining focus - as Mathieu points out in our conversation, there’s been 10 non-resource Canadian MicroCap transactions in 2023. While that may not seem that much, the frequency they’ve been happening of late has us MicroCap warriors taking note. I invited on my friend and colleague, Mathieu Martin, to chat with me about what is going on here and whether we think M&A will continue to move at this fast rate with the fear that sentiment is or may change for the better.

MSM Tier One Quality Index Review (April 11-18, 2024): Weekly Stats + Q&A Preview and Stocks to Watch at the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS with Maj Soueidan and Jan Svenda, GeoInvesting

My guest on the show today is Joe Lucosky, Managing Partner at Lucosky Brookman. You might take one look at this title and might not think this is for you; as an investor you might wonder why should you care whether a company decides to uplist, cross-list or even delist? What do these terms even mean? Why is the company wasting their time even considering any of these corporate actions? If you’ve ever asked yourself this question, whether you’re an investor or even an issuer, this is without a doubt the episode for you. Even if you’ve never thought about these topics, I think you’ll find our conversation fascinating.

In the world of Micro and Nano-caps, this conversation is happening in every boardroom: should we uplist to the NASDAQ from OTC Markets? What’s this new U.S. Listings program at CBOE? Should we delist to the OTCQX, QB or the Pinks? Is it too soon for us to Uplist? Should we cross-list onto OTC or NASDAQ? Should we do a simultaneous raise with uplist or cross-list? How will our investors react to this?

I’ve known Joe for years and has given multiple keynotes on this topic at our recent investor conferences, including a Keynote Q&A with Erik Sloane from the CBOE at the Planet MicroCap Showcase: VEGAS on April 30, 2024. You don’t want to miss that. This is Joe’s topic, his bread and butter, and he truly enjoys helping companies understand what makes the most sense for them. I think we do a good job covering every angle on the topic, but look, I invite you to give it a listen, and would love your feedback on this one.
