SaaS triple bagger from March lows, disregarding the spike down weekly hammer low.
Thought I'd seen it somewhere - one of Claude Walker's holdings

and that was about as good as it got, last Oct. A couple of run-ups based on FY20 and corporate activity, but as a small player up against big hitters, it may be hard to get wins. 1H21 was not well received

This is a buy recommendation on Motley Fool. Look at the return when they recommended and they still kept on shouting it as a buy.
Poor investors who previously listended to their BUY call to loose half of their hard earned money.
Thanks to MF who are always shy to accept their failrues in black and whte. Purely psychological game they play with less educated investors .

Damstra published three news today.
The SP dived down more than 12% already with volume transacted ten times than yesterday's volume
One of the news is about CFO resignation and new CFO with existing CFO to continue until April 22 (6 months notice avoiding any contractual dismissal clause , retirement or just a new job ??) .
The others were some what rosy but only one item in the CEO's presentation.
However market did not like it at all. Mr Damstra holds a significant investment himself . So what is happening on this path ?
Whats your comments folks - opportunity or concealed disappointment . How could Mr Damstra put his money recently then ?

see 3y

DTC, an Australian-based global provider of integrated workplace management solutions, refers to recent media speculation in relation to receipt of an unsolicited confidential, non-binding and indicative proposal from Accel-KKR. Discussions in relation to this Proposal have concluded.

.... hasn't hurt the SP, short term. LT, I guess the predators thought they could get it for a song. $2.40 peak in Oct 2020; after a plunge , some twenty months later, it got to as low as 7.5c in June 2022. Now 20c.
 
One to keep an eye on, if they can continue to be FCF +'ve and pay down the debt, while not increasing share count, maybe, just maybe might be an investible business in there. Today's 4C was quite encouraging.
One of the contracts I have in my company uses Damstra for the compliance training, its nice software & web interface. I can see why companies use their services.
