National Stock Exchange of Australia CEO Max Cunningham talked with Proactive's Angela Harmantas from the PDAC conference in Toronto about the exchange's role in the Australian market, its focus on mining companies, and its expansion plans. Cunningham explained that the NSX is one of two active stock exchanges in Australia with a tier-one license, allowing it to serve all investors, including retail. He highlighted that around one-third of the exchange's listings are mining-related, with strong growth potential in the sector. Cunningham noted that NSX is working to fill a gap in the Australian venture market and is focusing on attracting mining companies, especially from regions like Perth. He also emphasized the importance of international relationships, mentioning cross-listing agreements with Canadian exchanges such as the CSE and TSX, as well as OTC Markets. Looking ahead to 2025, Cunningham discussed the challenges of IPOs due to regulatory hurdles and capital-raising difficulties. Instead, the NSX is prioritizing direct listings, which allow companies to go public without raising capital upfront. He stated that NSX is seeing increased interest from firms moving from the incumbent Australian exchange, as well as from Canadian companies seeking dual listings. #NSX #StockMarket #MiningStocks #IPOs #DirectListings #PDAC2025 #Investing #AustralianMarkets #DualListings #CapitalMarkets

Jason Paltrowitz, Executive Vice President of OTC Markets, joined Richard Carleton, CEO of the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE), and Sarah-Louise Porter from the Aquis Exchange, in a discussion with Proactive about the importance of cross-listing during the Global Markets Forum in New York. Paltrowitz emphasized that 92% of the dollar volume on OTC Markets comes from non-U.S. companies, showcasing the importance of helping these firms access U.S. capital without the complexities of major exchange listings. He highlighted that cross-listing is particularly beneficial for early-stage and venture companies, as it offers access to U.S. investors while avoiding the high regulatory costs of larger exchanges. Richard Carleton echoed these sentiments, noting that cross-listing with OTC Markets is essential for Canadian companies seeking U.S. and global exposure, especially in today's difficult capital-raising environments. Sarah-Louise Porter added that Aquis Exchange's goal is to create more efficient markets, aiding companies in navigating the challenges of global market conditions. The discussion emphasized the role cross-listing plays in corporate growth strategies and connecting global markets. #proactiveinvestors #cse #otcmarkets #aquisexchange #OTCMarkets #CrossListing #CapitalAccess #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Fathom Nickel CEO Ian Fraser joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide insight into the company's progress and future plans. Established in 2015 with a focus on battery metals like nickel, copper, and cobalt, Fathom Nickel aims to secure critical North American metal supplies essential for electric vehicle (EV) batteries and decarbonization efforts. Operating two properties in northern Saskatchewan, namely Albert Lake and Gochager Lake, Fathom Nickel has been actively exploring these sites to uncover valuable mineral deposits. While Albert Lake served as the company's flagship project at its IPO, the acquisition of the Gochager Lake property in late 2022 marked a significant expansion of its portfolio. Extensive drilling efforts at both sites have yielded promising results, particularly at Gochager Lake, attracting attention from the market. Despite challenges in funding simultaneous projects, Fraser highlighted successful winter drilling programs and outlined plans for further exploration, including field mobilization in June and drone surveys to gather crucial data. Fraser underscored the importance of the U.S. market, citing productive engagements at recent conferences in New York. Fathom Nickel's listings on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) and the OTC Markets Group have facilitated strong support from U.S. investors. Leveraging governmental incentives for critical metals, the company aims to secure funding for the exploration stage and advance its strategic goals in North America's burgeoning battery metals #proactiveinvestors #fathomnickelinc #cse #fni #otcqb #fnicf #mining #nickel #BatteryMetals, #NickelMining, #CopperMining, #CobaltMining, #EVBatteries, #Decarbonisation, #NorthAmericanMetals, #AlbertLake, #SugarLake, #MiningExploration, #Saskatchewan, #CriticalMetals, #OTCMarkets, #CSE, #USMarket, #DroneSurvey, #FieldCrews, #DrillingPrograms, #MarketAttention#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

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.

Xalles Holdings (OTC:XALL) chairman Thomas Nash takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company's strategy of acquiring technology companies with strong assets and management teams, as well as the potential for significant growth. Nash explained that Xalles targets early-stage companies, guiding them through a business lifecycle that spans from incubation to acceleration and growth, with the ultimate aim of achieving a profitable exit. Nash emphasized the importance of the management team and key personnel in these acquisitions, stating that companies remain wholly owned subsidiaries, retaining their original management to ensure motivation and alignment with Xalles Holdings' goals. Xalles Holdings does not adopt a hands-on approach in the daily operations of its acquisitions but provides support in areas like financial backing, marketing, PR, and leveraging business development networks, Nash said. This support is aimed at helping subsidiaries refine their business plans and navigate towards financial milestones effectively. The company's acquisition strategy does not have a fixed timeframe, offering flexibility to adapt to each company's unique needs and market conditions. This strategy includes various phases, from early-stage incubation with Exotic Studio to acceleration with Exogamous Advisors and eventually to a formal acquisition under the RISE model, which stands for Roll In Selected Exit. Pending acquisitions include 100% of Fluid Tech and a stake in WooSender, demonstrating Xalles Holdings' diverse portfolio. The company also reported a 234% growth in revenue year-over-year for the third quarter of 2023, marking its ninth consecutive quarter of revenue growth, attributed to strategic acquisitions and effective support for these companies. #XallesHoldings #TechnologyAcquisitions #BusinessIncubation #GrowthStrategy #FinancialGrowth #TechInnovation #StartupAcceleration #ManagementTeam #BusinessDevelopment #StrategicInvestments #XallesHoldings, #TechAcquisitions, #StartupGrowth, #BusinessLifecycle, #OTCMarkets, #TechnologyInvestment, #StartupIncubation, #StrategicGrowth, #ManagementLeadership, #ProfitableExits, #EarlyStageCompanies, #FinancialMilestones, #BusinessAcceleration, #TechInnovation, #SubsidiaryManagement, #FinancialSupport, #MarketingSupport, #BusinessDevelopmentNetwork, #IncubationToExit, #ExoticStudio, #ExogamousAdvisors, #RISEModel, #InvestmentStrategy, #RevenueGrowth, #TechSectorInvestments #ProactiveInvestors #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Tolu Minerals CEO Iain Macpherson joined Steve Darling from Proactive at our OTC studio in New York City to discuss the results of the company's trench sampling program at the Peni Creek prospect, part of the broader Mt Penck project in Australia. The project is conveniently located, accessible by road just 56 kilometers from an existing deep-water port at the provincial capital of Kimbe on New Britain Island. The infrastructure supporting the oil palm industry in Kimbe provides easy and reliable access to the project site, facilitating future development. Macpherson shared that the company has collected assay results for 432 trench samples and 171 rock samples from the Peni Creek Prospect during a field program in 2023. Among the notable results are samples showing 7.29 g/t Gold + 54.6g/t Silver (PR23076), 60.3 ppm Mo (PR23096), and 686 ppm Cu. These samples were collected from Northwest-trending narrow mineralized zones, confirming the presence of at least 7 separate mineralized structures over a 260-meter-wide zone and 460-meter strike extension. These findings provide additional drill targets and confirm the prospectivity of the Mt Penck project, adding to the existing focus area at the Kavola section. The company plans to conduct further work, including airborne MT geophysics, extensive trenching, and drilling, to explore and delineate the potential of the project further. Macpherson emphasized the importance of engaging with North American investors, highlighting the company's positive reception in the region. The interview underscores Tolu Minerals' long-term vision and accelerated exploration strategies. #proactiveinvestors #tolumineralsltd #asx #tok #mining, #exploration, #goldmining, #coppermining, #silvermining, #ASXlisting, #PapuaNewGuinea, #CEOinterview, #investing, #resourceexploration, #miningindustry, #geology, #mineraldeposits, #OTCmarkets, #NorthAmericaninvestors, #miningnews, #geologicalsurvey, #mineralresources, #explorationresults, #miningupdate, #miningcompany, #preciousmetals, #naturalresources, #miningstocks#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

OTC Markets Group EVP of Corporate Services Jason Paltrowitz joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share some compelling findings from a study conducted by the OTC Markets. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of all Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) that took place on the NASDAQ CM and NYSE AMEX markets in 2022, totaling 91 deals. One striking aspect of the study was the snapshot of the market cap of these companies the day after the offering, which averaged at an impressive $213 million. However, a mere 28 days post-IPO, this average had dipped significantly to $102 million, and the current average currently rests at a more modest $56 million. These figures underscore the dynamic nature of the market and the challenges these newly listed companies face in maintaining their initial valuations. The study's findings revealed some alarming statistics, with a staggering 92% of IPOs experiencing negative rates of return from their offer price. The overall average total return across all these IPOs stood at a daunting -64.8%. Even more concerning was the fact that 34% of these companies found themselves on an exchange non-compliance list post-IPO, highlighting the difficulties they encountered in meeting regulatory requirements. Additionally, 51% of these newly listed firms resorted to reverse stock splits, either before or after their IPOs, raising questions about the alignment of interests within these companies. Amidst these findings, the study underscores several crucial takeaways for companies contemplating an exchange raise. Companies need to carefully assess whether they are well-positioned for success post-capital raise, considering factors such as their size and stage of development. Equally important are considerations related to advisory fees, compliance expenses, and the potential dilution costs for existing shareholders. Another critical consideration is the investor base, as companies should identify the type of investors participating in the offering – whether they are long-term holders or short-term intermediaries seeking to quickly flip discounted shares. Addressing these questions becomes essential for a successful exchange raise, as they directly impact a company's ability to navigate the complexities of the public market landscape effectively. #proactiveinvestors #otcmarkets #smallcaps #ipo #CorporateServices #StockMarket #Investing #CapitalRaising #FinancialInsights #SmallCap #MediumCap #FinanceTips #MarketResearch #Stocks #PostIPOChallenges #InvestorRelations #BusinessGrowth #MarketData #StockPerformance #EconomicAnalysis #FinancialAdvice #CompanyManagement #StrategicPlanning #CapitalStructure #InvestmentStrategies #StockExchange #MarketTrends #FinancialMarkets#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

We discuss the fastest way to build your business on LinkedIn, the role of a stock transfer agency, and why you must understand your customer's needs to be successful in business.  --- Build Your Business on LinkedIn with Seth Farbman Our guest is Seth Farbman, the chairman and president of V-Stock Transfer, a stock transfer agent providing a unique combination of 24-7 online access and proactive, energetic and personalized customer service. Seth, welcome to the show. Thank you, Steve. It is a pleasure to be here and I appreciate you having me. Great to have you here. You have an interesting and quite unique business, that at least on this show we have not come across. So I'm very curious about several things, but let's start with your entrepreneurial journey, including your three exits and starting your companies with the V and stuff like that. So share with us, how did you get here? I guess it's been a journey. I feel like I just started yesterday sometimes and I hope we have a long way to go, but it has been a journey over 20, 25 years. I started off as a, as a securities attorney and really sort of always, I wouldn't say always, not since a young child, but certainly at a law school, had a bug, or the DNA for business, for entrepreneurship. And a couple years at a law school, I had my own firm, but the first business venture was called Vintage Filings. And Steve, what that was, an SEC Edgar filing company, and the great story where I slept on my couch for six months and I ate pizza for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, but that was in 02, and between 02 and 07, we were able to grow it to about 4,000 public companies and had our first exit, sold the company to PR Newswire. I had tried some other different outside of public company work that didn't end so well. So not every story is golden. And one was in the weight loss business, one was in the apparel business, I lost my shirt. And I ended up going back to the corporate compliance world and had a company called V Corp, which we sold to a Walters Klor after a few years and a company called Vcheck Global, which was backgrounds and due diligence, which we sold to a private equity firm called Sunstone Private Equity a couple years ago. So all that really is a segue to my main gig now is I run V Stock Transfer and we are a stock transfer agency. We work with about 800 publicly traded companies listed on NASDAQ, New York Stock Exchange, OTC Markets. And that's sort of where I am today and the role that I sit in. That's fantastic. So let's switch gears here and talk about the framework that you bring into the show. And you called it the lose the argument, but win the deal, or lose the argument and win the deal framework. Can you explain to me what that means and how do you actually win the deal when you lose the argument? Yeah, I mean, I think we started speaking about that where you reach a certain point, whether it's in business or in sales, and I can't say that it's the philosophy of everyone, but at some point, I just decided that I don't want to be that type of business person who is twisting arms, who's being uber aggressive, and who is just forcing my solution down the throat of somebody whether they need it or not. And I'm not looking to argue with someone. So my philosophy is I'm going to present the value that I bring to the table, the services that we offer, how I think that I could help you for what you're trying to accomplish, and if you recognize that and we can continue the conversation, that would be great, but I just, I don't want to spend the time and the effort trying to convince you of something that you may not ever recognize that you need or want. So that's sort of the philosophy behind it. Don't spend time and effort trying to convi...

Brayden shares his thoughts on how The BC Bud Co is carving out a unique identity for the company in an increasingly competitive marketplace by leaning fully into a business model that does not include farming and producing their own product – a true rarity for a cannabis focused company. He also explains how the company's decision to adopt and fully embrace a marathon versus sprint model has helped place them into a position to capitalize on a market sector that has seen its fair share of casualties over the past few years. This is truly a wonderful and informative conversation that anyone following the cannabis market sector will not want to miss. So sit back and enjoy the show. The Company trades on the OTC Markets under the symbol $BCBCF and you can find more information about them by visiting their website at https://www.thebcbc.com/
