4. Valuation
(1) Currently, the company is still not profitable. In Q1 2019 it actually generated around $150k in cash. It seems the trend will continue.
(2) Assuming by 2021, it can generate $30m in revenue, $10m in gross profit. $7m SG&A. $3 in real income $60m cap. 100m shares. It can support a share price of $0.60(CAD$0.80) by then.
5. Risk
(1)It seems the company actually created an account on stockhouse.com to promote its stock which is really rare.
(2)Currently, it has not generated enough cash to pay down the debt it needs to pay each quarter. Also, it needs cash to fuel future acquisition.
(3)Its gross profit is growing each quarter, however, its SG&A is also growing. It is hard to tell the SG&A growth will not exceed the gross profit it generates.
(4) It seems not much to improve efficiency when combining those new locations together.
6. Conclusion
The company is in the right industry and has a lot of potentials. However, it still needs some cash injection to fuel future acquisitions. The current price is acceptable if the company can generate profit as the current trend shows.
