Share Structure/Fundamentals

The company shared late May its financial statement for the period ended March 31st. Cannibble Foodtech has a strong cash position with USD $421k cash and cash equivalents in hand, for $749k total assets and USD $1.36M in total liabilities. Cannibble Foodtech earned $45k in total revenues (vs. $67k YoY period) and had a total cost of revenues of $34k (vs. $42k YoY period). Suppose the company reduced its research and development expenses ($78k vs. $106k) but augmented its general and administrative, selling, and marketing services ($289k vs. $265k, $175k vs. $78k). It is good to see the company augments its selling and marketing expenses. It means Cannibble Foodtech should reach more potential clients, bringing the company more revenue.

Share Movement

Cannibble Foodtech’s stock price is CAD $0.56, went as low as $0.20, and has an all-time of $0.93 (this data was the company’s IPO price). If we focus on the fair valuation with the Price/Sales ratio, PLCN’s ratio is higher than its competitors. It is explained because Cannibble Foodtech is an emerging company, and investors are willing to pay a premium to own shares of the company. According to Yahoo Finance, its P/S ratio is 47. For a comparison, High Tide (HITI.V) P/S’s ratio is 0.57, and Ayurcann Holdings’ (AYUR.CN) is 1.57.

According to the stock chart data, the stock price is on an uptrend, with its Simple MA (20) at $0.53 and its simple MA (50) at $0.48. The RSI (Relative Stress Index) data at 58 indicates the stock is neither an overbought nor oversold territory (under 30 or above 70). Regarding short-term stock price movement, the Bollinger bands indicate we could witness price fluctuations between $0.46 to $0.59. The volume remains particularly low. On the 50-day ADV, there were 4k shares traded, and in comparison with the 10-day ADV, there are only a little more than 2k shares traded. It is explained because the cannabis market has taken a beating for the last couple of months. Investors fear this sector with inflation increasing and other data hampering retailers’ spending. Besides, it is a beautiful opportunity to add more shares or start a position in the company if you like this sector and believe it will grow.

Bottom Line

Cannibble Foodtech (PLCN.CN) doesn’t undergo the general market downtrend and, even better, is overperforming the cannabis sector. If the revenues are currently not here, it should be a matter of time. The company has strong fundamentals with only 21.7M shares outstanding and $414k cash in hands, and this is data that matters. If you don’t feel like investing right now in the cannabis industry, PLCN is worth adding to your watchlist.
