Valeo Pharma is already a successful, revenue generating, small cap Canadian pharmaceutical company that acquires the Canadian rights to commercialized drugs in other parts of the world that don’t have Canada on their radar as a target market.
This “in-license” business model is ingenious because it means ZERO developmental or clinical risk, which is the downfall of most small cap pharma companies.
This model has resulted in the following success:
$5.3M in revenues in the first 9 months of 2020 (ending July 31, 2020)
9 products currently in the market with an annual estimated peak sales of $40M/year
7 products in the pipeline with an annual estimated peak sales of $45M/year
In fact, capital markets confidence is so high that Valeo secured $8.6M in financing in the last half of the year with:
$6.9M Bought Deal financing at $1.20/shares
A $1.7M Oversubscribed debenture (non-convertible)
If that was all Valeo had, most investors would be happy to sit back and watch the Company grow.
But then came Redesca. We are going to save you the science and tell you that Redesca belongs to a class of anticoagulant medications (blood thinners) called LMWH. The size of the Canadian LMWH market is over $200M per year and Valeo believes they can capture 15-30% of this market. If you’re doing back of napkin math, that equates to $30,000,000 – $60,000,000 per year in revenues.
But how does a new product capture that much market share? Glad you asked because we asked CEO Steve Saviuk the same question. Competition is tough in all markets and they don’t let someone take 15-30% market share without one hell of a fight.
Saviuk agreed and gave the following reasons:
1. Redesca has an 8-year international track record of safety and efficacy. It is already well known
2. Redesca is flat out cheaper, which is music to the ears of Provincial Health Ministries whose budgets have been stretched to the max this year no thanks to COVID-19.
Vaelo is so confident that it stated “This is great news for the Canadian healthcare system …. and is expected to help provide significant savings to provincial healthcare systems.”
Well there you have it. Valeo is a great story. Watch the video.
HOLD ON. THERE’S MORE … A LOT MORE
In a recently issued newsletter by MDBriefCase entitled “Exploring Novel Therapeutic Approaches for Covid-19: Hesperidin vs Vitamin C” the newsletter stated that recently accumulated evidence suggests that Hesperidin supplementation may be useful as a prophylactic agent against SARS-Cov-2 infection and as a complementary treatment during COVID-19 disease. What does this mean?
Growing body of research suggests Hesperidin may interfere with SARS-CoV-2 infection process
Hesperidin may help against Covid-19 viral replication
Hesperidin is a potent antioxidant with anti-inflammatory activity that may help in controlling cytokine storm (where the body starts to attack its own cells and tissue rather than just the virus)
Valeo’s unique Hesperidin formulation (HESPERCO) is the only format available where every capsule contains 500mg of concentrated Hesperidin.
Now you have it. That’s the Valeo story as it applies to just 2 of their amazing products. There is a whole lot more to the story given their pipeline of products but we couldn’t cover it all in this great interview with CEO Steve Saviuk.
If you love revenue generating, growing and blue sky potential small cap companies, then this Valeo interview is a must watch.
When we look back at 2020 this time next year … what we’ve done is very little in my opinion to date.”
Wait … What?
“This year (2021) will see major growth and expansion …. We’re about to reap the rewards from all the groundwork and that is exciting to me … This will be our biggest year by a country mile”
Given the fact we had to do this interview on a Sunday due to Anson “putting in 100 work weeks” and “18-20 Zoom presentations per day”, as well as, 4 pretty significant press releases in the first 2 weeks of 2021, Anson is living up to his word.
Moreover, in this interview, he shows no hesitation when asked if he still feels the same way about 2021.
Watch this great Sunday morning interview with Loop Insights Founder and CEO, Rob Anson.

FansUnite Entertainment $FANS $FUNFF continues to live up to its name as the “Small Cap iGaming Super Company” by yet again announcing major news.
Specifically, their originally announced $5M financing was upsized to $11,000,000 …. and then upsized AGAIN to $13,400,000. And according to CEO Scott Burton, the demand was much higher but they had to make a decision to cut it off at some point.
This should tell you all you need to know about how much demand there is for this small cap online gambling company, who recently made history by becoming the first EVER dedicated esports sportsbook in the United States, along with partner GameCo.
What we love about the Company is having both B2C (direct gambling customers) and B2B (providing the world’s online casinos with new games and technology).
Moreover, they were granted their all important Malta license recently, are now pursuing the invaluable UK license and finally, appear to be in pole position for anticipated changes to online gambling laws in Canada later in 2021.

Datamerex (DM:TSXV) has the rare benefit that most small cap companies would only dream of …. 2 successful independent divisions that are each capable of being a company maker.
The first division is their Artificial Intelligence driven social media monitoring and discovery product … and this isn’t some basic social media monitoring tool for keywords. Clients include Canadian Federal Government, DRDC, Health Canada, United States Air Force and LOTTE (a $2.6B South Korean multinational conglomerate.
As a result of the highest level security clearances required to do this level of work, Datametrex was well positioned with deep roots in South Korea to add their second, though unintended division of COVID-19 test kit distribution. Again, this isn’t some small cap stretch trying to capitalize on a trend for the sake of stock promotion. Rather, when the Canadian Government came calling for assistance in importing and distributing COVID-19 test kits, Datametrex stepped up to the task thanks to its security clearances already in place in both countries.
Since then, the company has signed multiple multi-million dollar COVID-19 test kit supply agreements with mining companies, a $20M CAD agreement with the television and film industry and various educational institutions.
As a result, Datametrex has had its’ best year ever in the first 3 quarters of 2020 as follows:
Record revenue of $7.6 million for the nine-month 2020 period compared to $2.6 in 2019
Record revenue of $4.9 million was generated in Q3
First ever positive EBIDTA quarter
If that wasn’t enough, they started off 2021 by announcing the following:
Sold over 23,000 onsite tests for the film industry at locations in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver for the months of October through December 2020. This represents approximately $4,000,000 CAD in top-line revenue for Q4
Datametrex Providing COVID-19 Testing for Air Canada Front-Line and Inflight Employees
Binding LOI to acquire 100% of Concierge Medical Consultant Inc. a private telehealth and medical concierge services company currently generating revenue through a direct-to-consumer subscription model
Watch this powerful interview with CEO Marshall Gunter to discuss the year that was … and why he’s so optimistic about 2021.

Most of us know drones as cool toys flying around the neighbourhood, or perhaps even as simple commercial applications for things like real estate videos.
But the fact of the matter is that drone usage is about to go parabolic with huge corporations now testing ways to:
Use drones to provide Internet connections in remote locations.
Use drones to collect crowd data.
….. And there’s even a start-up that’s using drones to deliver tacos to your door.
In short, the drone industry is booming in ways people can’t imagine because the industry is shifting from the drones (hardware) to data … and one company is already ahead of the shift … DraganFly (DFLY: CSE) (DFLYF:OTCQB) (3U8:FSE)
DraganFly is an award-winning drone manufacturer and technology developer that is actually delivering some pretty incredible achievements, milestones and even history:
Established in 1998 DFLY is considered the oldest commercial drone company in the world
Built the first drone that saved a life
Boasts the first drone to be inducted into the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum
Developing a Vaccine Drone Delivery Payload System (it’s way more complicated than just transporting vaccines)
Detect infectious conditions in a person from a distance of 190 feet
Conduct phenotyping, data collection and analysis by the USDA
With all of this under the Company’s belt, it’s easy to see why CEO Chell believes DFLY will become one of the top 3 drone companies in the world and why they have now begun the process of listing on NASDAQ.
If you believe in the massive parabolic growth in the use of drones for almost everything we do in this world, or are just learning, then watch / listen to this powerful interview with Draganfly CEO and Chairman, Cameron Chell.

2020 was a disappointing one for the once euphoric cannabis industry thanks to the fallout of over-hyped and over-financed companies that failed to deliver on a fraction of their promises.
The year 2000 saw the exact same thing happen to “dot-com” companies that failed in even more spectacular fashion. Many investors swore off internet stocks forever. The smart ones waited to see which companies were real … and the rest was history as we saw the birth and growth of internet companies that delivered real value, products and customers.
The same is about to happen in the Cannabis space in 2021. With the market estimated to hit $70 Billion over the next few years, there is very little doubt that winners will be created out of companies delivering real businesses
With Distribution and Manufacturing Agreements already in place for Both Europe and USA, $INNO is now on the verge of Commercializing It’s Clinically Proven CBD Products around the world in 2021.
As a Cannabis investor, why limit yourself to a Company with just one specialty, when InnoCan offers you exposure to both the exploding world of cannabis pharma, as well as, a portfolio of patent-pending and launch ready consumer health products.
If you believe in the future of the cannabis industry and companies delivering real, value-add CBD products, then watch this interview with Innocan CEO, Iris Bincovich.

Both KABN North America (KABN:CSE) and ImagineAR (IP:CSE / IPNFF:OTCQB) are incredibly disruptive and on the cusp of unstoppable trends, which makes them both explosive but also so new that investors still need to wrap their minds around each of them, let alone both of them together. The good news is that CEO’s from both companies (David Lucatch KABN and Alen Paul Silverrstieen ImagineAR) have sat down with us to explain why their combination is the way all of us will be controlling and profiting from our online identities in the near future.
Before watching the video, here is a little about what you need to know about each company.
KABN – Solves the major problem around our online identities and data. Through Liquid Avatar they provide each one of us with the power to manage and monetize our digital identity, which is an unstoppable trend as both a natural evolution of the web, as well as, legislation forcing big platforms to no longer share and profit from our personal online data.
IMAGINEAR – As the name implies, ImagineAR is an Augmented Reality Company that enables businesses to create their own mobile phone AR campaigns with no programming or technology experience. AR is also an unstoppable trend – but don’t take our word for it.
Apple CEO Tim Cook stated “AR Will play an important role in how we use technology in the future – and promises to be as influential in our society as the smart phone”
The AR market is expected to grow to $200 Billion by 2025 from just $3.5 billion in 2017. .
Now you know why the combination of these two companies is so powerful and well worth your while to watch, listen and learn about what they are going to do. The future is coming, so you might as well see it coming first.
Though some impatient “investors” unrealistically demanded immediate and big sales agreements for the BioCloud unit, priced at $US 12,000 EACH $KNR CEO Paul Ghezzi and his team know that real success comes from building a real foundation – and they did that in a mind boggling 5 months. We’ve been in the smallcap business long enough to know that pulling off the following in 4 months is damn near impossible, until now:
DISTRIBUTION – On December 1, 2020 KNR announced Entering into Exclusive Distribution Agreement with United Safety and Survivability Corporation for BioCloud Technology Distribution in North America, Australia and New Zealand. The exclusivity applies to the industries defined as buses, rail and locomotive, subways, ambulances, fire trucks, first responder and military vehicles, with applicable associated facilities in the geography of North America , Australia , and New Zealand . The exclusivity period is 12 months with a six month mutual renewal option and is based on 5,000 units of BioCloud per annum, on a best efforts basis, to retain exclusivity. Pricing will not be disclosed for industry competitive purposes.
In addition, KNR has also entered into two non-exclusive BioCloud distribution agreements covering Ontario and Saskatchewan.
MANUFACTURING – KNR has engaged OES Inc. a local design and contract manufacturer in London, Ontario to produce the BioCloud units. OES Inc. has a long and established history of assisting with the design and manufacturing of complex technology. Initial maximum capacity has been set at 10,000 units per month.

There is a lot we could say about American Creek Resources (AMK:TSXV) Treaty Creek Project but you might accuse of us of making it up, so we’ll let the words of 4 much smarter and wealthier people do all the talking:
Eric Sprott, Billionaire Investor and 2X Investor In American Creek Resources
“It certainly looks like they have 20 million ounces and they could easily get to 30 or 40 or 50 million ounces (of gold)” – July 24, 2020
Darren Blaney, President & CEO American Creek Resources
“Clearly, we have a massive, world-class gold system that still shows no signs of weakening to the northeast nor at depth.”
Walter Storm, CEO Tudor Gold (JV Partner) And Financier Of Osisko Gold Reaching $4.5 Billion Market Cap
“These results have proven that we have an excellent understanding of the structure, geology and mineralogy of this massive gold system.”
Ken Konkin , Tudor Gold Exploration Manager (Credited With Discovering Brucejack Mine Just South Of Treaty Creek)
“Given the success of the two deep drill holes GS19-47 and GS19-48, the Goldstorm System shows no signs of weakening to the northeast and several more drill holes will be needed to find the length and depth of this huge gold system.“
