Howard Sutton Absolute Software Corp. ABST-T BUY Jun 17, 2008

Software that recovers lost/stolen laptops. Some disappointments in how quickly it was ramping and the stock pulled back. Just announced they are getting in the mobile space for managing/erasing files on handhelds. Risk/reward is looking pretty good.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
A sizable company of $800 million. He follows it and is waiting for a pullback. Pays a 2.4% dividend yield, attractive. They provide enterprise cloud and flourished during Covd and remote wwork, but has retreated post-Covid. Is up in the past month. Would buy at $12-13. But cloud computing is a crowded space, unlike just a few years ago. AVST is a regional player.
