My opinions as part of an early institutional investor WELL
I won't be replying to any comments. Been following this thread for a a bit. Here are my thoughts
1. Please do not decide on investment decisions from these posts. The comments, although entertaining and some with merit are for the most part guesses and wishful thinking.
2. Watch out for the punp and dump websites. Motley Fool comes to mind
3. Just my opinions, but WELL won't be sold. They have enough cash reserves. It's been a large play lately of shorting the stocks and bots. My trader saw a whole bunch of algorithm bots when he was selling .
4. The news updates sound a touch panicky. Of course they are hyping their excellent companies with great upside revenues, but it is also interesting from their last 2 news releases about what they didn't discuss, i.e. the recent companies they bought who may not be realizing expectations. All will be known next quarter .
5. My guess is as this stock price declines, so does the possibility of a Nasdaq listing.
6. Roughtly calculated debt to equity ratio is high at 48%. All these small tuck in acquisitions look nice and may contirbute a bit to profit, but I feel the updates from WELL about these small companies are exagerrated positively. Their more recent acquisition of a cardiology software company for example, is neutral in my view . Doesn't bring more business.
7. Shares have been diluted for growth. Both pros and cons for this strategy n a growth comapny.
8. Company suffering from both macro forces, ie telehealth stocks YTD avergae a 35% decline, and micro economics. They marketed as a Telehealth company, but rough calculation is very little overall revenue is from that. Are there players out there to buy the company? Really not in Canada unless a private fund buys them. Anyways my 2 cents. And get off these bulletin boards and put your $ into safer , larger cap stocks and let them ride for a few years. You will get your losses from WELL back. Can WELL recover? Sure it can , but nobody has a crystal ball.

further to my leverage point - a Canadian pension fund was the lead order on an oversubscribed $70MM unsecured conv debenture offering with a 5.50% coupon, just 2-3 weeks ago. if the market was at all concerned about leverage, there is not a chance in hell this would have been oversubscribed. the coupon would also have been much higher.

There are at least seven analysts from various financial institutions...all with a BUY rating on Well with an average target price of $12.00...surely, they aren't all up Shitt's Creek...
