3 Small-Cap Tech Stocks That Appear Ready to Resume Their Rallies

Spotlight Growth/ASUR

Unearth hidden treasures in the high-risk, high-reward realm of small-cap stocks, where savvy investors can capitalize on market dips and ride the wave of growth, armed with diligent research and risk management strategies. Waiting for a pullback on quality small-cap stocks can be an attractive investment strategy for risk-tolerant investors seeking higher returns. Small-cap stocks have historically outperformed their larger peers over a long time horizon, offering higher growth potential in exchange for some additional risk. However, it is essential to focus on quality stocks with strong fundamentals, as they are more likely to withstand market fluctuations and deliver consistent returns in the long run. These under-the-radar companies can sometimes avoid much of the broader market chaos, making them appealing investment options during market dips. When investing in small-cap stocks, it is crucial to focus on research and make proper asset allocation decisions, as these stocks are highly volatile and susceptible to market risks. Investors should also consider their risk appetite before venturing into small-cap investments, as these stocks can experience significant declines during market downturns. Buying the dip in quality small-cap stocks can be a rewarding strategy for investors with a higher risk appetite and a long-term investment horizon. By focusing on strong fundamentals and proper asset allocation, investors can maximize their returns and grow their wealth over time while navigating the inherent risks associated with small-cap investments. With quality small-cap stocks in mind, here are three tech-focused companies that are worth researching further: 1. Asure Software (NASDAQ: ASUR) The Austin, Texas-based company provides cloud-based human capital management (HCM) software solutions geared towards small and medium-sized businesses. Asure’s suite of services aims to help businesses cut costs by streamlining back-office operations across human resources, payroll, tax, employee attendance, HR compliance, and more. Since the start of 2023, Asure has inked partnerships with notable companies such as H&R Block (NYSE: HRB) and Intuit's (NYSE: INTU) TurboTax to expand their offerings and features aimed at helping small business boost their employee retention and recruitment efforts. Asure Software saw impressive growth during 2022, which resulted in total revenue of $95.8 million or 26% year-over-year growth. Adjusted EBITDA for 2022 improved by $4.2 million to reach $11.8 million. The HCM provider’s 2022 results surpassed its own guidance by a significant margin and with SMBs continuing to look for ways to cut costs and get leaner, Asure’s products & services likely face another year ahead of strong demand and growth. The strong growth trend appears to be continuing into 2023 so far, after the company reported impressive Q1 2023 results with revenue of $33.1 million, a 36% increase from Q1 2022. Recurring revenue reached $28.0 million, up 22% from the previous year, and net income stood at $0.3 million, a $3.4 million improvement year-over-year. The company also reported a gross profit of $24.4 million, marking a 58% rise from Q1 2022. Following these strong results, Asure has updated its full year 2023 guidance, with expected revenue in the range of $111.0M - $113.0M, up from the previously estimated $105.0M - $107.0M. The company also provided Q2 2023 guidance, forecasting revenue between $25.0M - $26.0M, and an Adjusted EBITDA of $2.5M - $3.5M. According to Nasdaq.com, Institutional investors continue to provide Asure with strong support with institutional ownership of over 65%, which equates to a total value of around $182 million, as of this writing. Furthermore, disclosures from the period ended March 31, 2023, showed Asure gained Barclays PLC (NYSE: BCS), Ritholtz Wealth Management, Jump Financial, LLC, and others as new institutional shareholders. 2. C3 AI (NYSE: AI) Based out of Redwood City, CA, C3 AI describes itself as an enterprise AI app software company, which offers a comprehensive platform that allows businesses and organizations to develop, deploy and operate AI applications. C3 AI's platform features many industry-specific software-as-a-service (SaaS) AI apps that are geared toward helping enterprises begin to adopt new technologies into their operations. Artificial intelligence has been a major theme through the first half of 2023. The rise of OpenAI’s ChatGPT and the incredible capabilities of new AI programs have led to a surge in demand. C3 AI has been a beneficiary of this demand, as investors look to scoop up AI-related investments. Even the U.S. Department of Defense has partnered with C3 AI to develop enterprise AI solutions for the U.S. Air Force’s critical mission readiness. C3 AI is well-capitalized with a strong current ratio of 7.70, as a result of cash & equivalents holding of over $311 million and limited debt, as of January 2023. Nasdaq.com highlights C3 AI’s institutional ownership at nearly 42%, which has seen 80 new institutions add shares of C3 AI since the end of Q3 2022. 3. Vimeo (NASDAQ: VMEO) Vimeo is a New York-based video software solutions provider. Using a SaaS model, Vimeo allows subscribers to create, collaborate and deploy video within its platform. From OTT streaming and monetization capabilities to AI-based video creation and editing, Vimeo's platform provides a comprehensive solution for major corporations, small businesses, solopreneurs, schools, and more. In early May 2023, Vimeo reported first quarter 2023 financial results, which continued to demonstrate growth at the video software provider. While total revenue did see a slight 4% decrease y/y to $103.6 million, net losses saw a massive improvement of $25.9 million during the quarter to reach ($0.7 million). In addition, adjusted EBITDA improved by $13.6 million to reach $3.2 million during the first three months of 2023. Enterprise booking saw impressive growth of 62% y/y, thanks to new customers including BBC, UCLA, Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ), Warner Brothers, and more. Over the past several months, Vimeo's share price has struggled but has continuously found support around the $3.25 level. Based on the financial results, Vimeo is seeing a growth shift to enterprises. This could help the company stabilize results, as enterprise customers tend to be more vested and longer-term focused than smaller organizations and individuals. If Vimeo can continue to build on its enterprise growth, its share price could see some improvement.

Columbus, Ohio-area School Wins Grand Prize in National Creativity Competition presented by Jersey Mike’s Subs – Earns Visit from the Harlem Globetrotters on Tuesday, May 23

Campus Multimedia

Glacier Ridge Elementary School in Dublin, OH, has been named the national grand prize winner of the Court of Creativity contest presented by Jersey Mike’s Subs. As the grand prize winner, the school will receive a visit from the world-famous Harlem Globetrotters on Tuesday, May 23, plus a $1,000 prize that was awarded when they became a finalist. Judges from the Harlem Globetrotters and Jersey Mike’s Subs were impressed by the students’ ability to blend science, music, and basketball in a creative and original way. The school’s participation included multiple grade levels as their 5th graders performed and analyzed 10 different science experiments, and 3rd graders created a basketball movement music routine. "Congratulations to Glacier Ridge Elementary for winning the Court of Creativity challenge," said Rich Hope, Chief Marketing Officer of Jersey Mike’s Franchise Systems, Inc. "We were impressed by the creativity and energy from all the submissions we received, and we're thrilled to name Glacier Ridge Elementary as the grand prize winner." Known as the “Court of Creativity presented by Jersey Mike’s Subs,” the six-week contest was open to public, private, and vocational schools with grades Kindergarten through 5th across the United States. It was part of Jersey Mike’s and the Harlem Globetrotters’ ongoing efforts to promote healthy lifestyles, teamwork, and creativity among young people. The contest encouraged students to showcase their creativity related to the Harlem Globetrotters or the sport of basketball. “On behalf of the staff and students of Glacier Ridge Elementary School, we are extremely honored and grateful to be the recipient of the Court of Creativity contest sponsored by Jersey Mike’s and the Harlem Globetrotters,” said Pete Kurty, Principal at Glacier Ridge Elementary School. “We are excited to celebrate as a whole school as the Globetrotters perform and then we are treated to a delicious Jersey Mike’s lunch. We would be remiss if we didn’t also celebrate the creativity of the teachers of the winning lesson submissions. Incorporating creativity into instruction is what great educators do every day. However, without the creativity, innovation, and collaboration of the 5th-grade teaching team and the music and physical education teacher, this experience would not be possible. Thank you to Jersey Mike’s and the Harlem Globetrotters for encouraging and promoting creativity and quality instruction in order to provide an amazing educational experience for students.” ABOUT JERSEY MIKE’S SUBS Jersey Mike’s Subs, with more than 2,500 locations nationwide, serves authentic fresh sliced/fresh grilled subs on in-store freshly baked bread — the same recipe it started with in 1956.

Experience Next-Level Privacy with Sekur Private Data Ltd.’s (OTCQX: SWISF) (CSE: SKUR) SekurVPN: The World's First Big Tech-Free, Swiss-Based VPN

Sekur Private Data, Ltd.

In today's digital age, where online privacy is increasingly under threat, a Virtual Private Network (VPN) offers a powerful solution to safeguard your online identity and secure your data from prying eyes. A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a technology that creates a secure and encrypted connection over the internet, allowing users to browse the web privately and anonymously. It does so by routing the user's data through a remote server, masking the user's IP address and encrypting their online traffic. VPNs are widely used for various purposes, such as protecting sensitive data, bypassing geo-restrictions, and maintaining online privacy. They are particularly useful for individuals and businesses that need to secure their communications and personal information from hackers, cybercriminals, and unauthorized access. As internet privacy concerns continue to grow, VPNs have become an essential tool for safeguarding one's online activities and ensuring a safe and secure browsing experience. Growth Outlook For the Global VPN Market The horizon for virtual private networks (VPN) in the global market is looking exceedingly bright. With a staggering market size of $48.94 billion in 2022, the VPN industry is predicted to reach an awe-inspiring $358.64 billion by 2032, with a remarkable compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.04% between 2023 and 2032. This phenomenal surge is a testament to the escalating need for impregnable and secluded internet connections, alongside the mounting menace of cyberattacks and data breaches. In terms of global revenue estimates, the VPN market is projected to experience substantial growth during this period. The market, which was estimated at $44.6 billion in 2022, is expected to reach a revised size of $137.7 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 15.1% over the analysis period from 2022 to 2030. This growth can be attributed to the increasing adoption of VPNs across various industries and regions, as well as the ongoing advancements in VPN technology and services. Sekur Private Data Launches New, Innovative SekurVPN Product That Swaps Big Tech For Private Swiss IPs, and Includes its Proprietary HeliX Technology With Military-Grade Encryption Sekur Private Data Ltd. (OTCQX: SWISF) (CSE: SKUR) has introduced SekurVPN, a groundbreaking privacy-oriented VPN solution that operates independently of big tech companies and is hosted in Switzerland. The service is designed for users who prioritize privacy and want to conceal their IP addresses from potential hackers while engaging in online activities such as banking, shopping, emailing, or using messaging apps. SekurVPN's pricing is set at $7 per month per user or $70 per year per user, with various currency options available. SekurVPN stands out by not relying on Big Tech or Hyperscaler hosting, assuring that there are no bundled third-party services and preventing data leaks. It does not monitor user traffic, and registration does not require a phone number. The VPN employs its proprietary infrastructure and exclusively provides Swiss IPs, ensuring user data is not shared with external service providers. SekurVPN securely directs all internet traffic through its private servers in Switzerland, incorporating top-tier encryption standards and its proprietary HeliX technology. Each connection has unique encryption keys, keeping users' passwords, sensitive data, and internet usage encrypted even on untrusted public networks. With a simplified user interface, SekurVPN is easy to set up and deploy. Users simply tap or click to establish a connection. The service is presently available on iOS and Android devices, with MacOS and Windows versions expected to launch soon. Alongside SekurVPN, the company provides a bundled Sekur plan that includes SekurMessenger and SekurMail, incorporating proprietary anti-phishing and privacy features such as SekurSend® and SekurReply®. SekurMessenger's innovative "Chat-By-Invite" functionality allows secure communication with non-SekurMessenger users without requiring them to sign up or install the app. Sekur's data privacy offerings are all hosted in Switzerland, where user privacy is stringently protected under Swiss law. The Swiss Federal Constitution's Article 13 safeguards privacy rights, and the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) restricts unauthorized processing of personal information.

COMCAST LAUNCHES SPEEDS FASTER THAN A GIG IN DEMING, PORTALES, AND TAOS

Comcast New Mexico

Comcast announced today internet speeds up to 1.2 Gbps (1,200 Mbps) are now available via the Xfinity 10G Network to nearly 20,000 homes and businesses in Deming, Portales, and Taos, New Mexico. These new speeds are available to new and existing customers. With the launch of new, faster speeds, Comcast, the nation’s largest provider of Gigabit internet, will provide internet options ranging from 50 Mbps to 1.2 Gbps, together with video, mobile, voice, home security and management products, and other products and services geared to local businesses. In addition, Xfinity Internet customers who lease a gateway will have access to Comcast’s next-generation cyber protection, xFi Advanced Security, that automatically detects and blocks of cyber threats like malware, providing peace of mind to consumers and businesses. “Comcast is committed to connecting more people to what matters most to them,” said Chris Dunkeson, Area Vice President, Comcast. “We’re excited to bring additional internet options to consumers and businesses on our fast, reliable, secure network. Whether it’s for work, school, or entertainment, our fiber-rich, gigabit network is built to meet the needs of tomorrow - today.” Comcast also is addressing digital equity in the communities we serve through Project UP, the company’s $1 billion dollar commitment to help tens of millions of people connect to the internet and build futures of unlimited possibilities. In the last three years, Comcast has invested more than $13.5 million in more than 75 nonprofit and community organizations across New Mexico. Additionally, Comcast will continue to bring affordable, high-speed internet to low-income households through Internet Essentials. In over 10 years, the program has connected more than 10 million Americans, including 412,000 New Mexicans. Comcast also proudly participates in the federal Affordable Connectivity Program, which provides a subsidy of up to $30 per month –up to $75 per month in tribal areas—to pay for Internet service, covering the full cost of both Internet Essentials (50/10 Mbps) and Internet Essentials Plus (100/20 Mbps) for eligible households. Interested customers can visit Xfinity.com/ACP or call 1-800-Xfinity to learn more about this program and find out if they qualify. -More- Powered by the Xfinity 10G Network Comcast’s network and Internet experience are powering homes today and into the future: Ultimate Capacity: Xfinity customers connect nearly 1 billion devices across the company’s network annually.

Fastest Internet: Comcast is the largest provider of Gigabit internet and about one third of Xfinity Internet customers subscribe to gigabit speed products. Unprecedented Coverage: The latest Xfinity Gateway provides a more reliable connection throughout the home. Customers can get wall-to-wall WiFi coverage with a powerful Xfinity WiFi Boost Pod that extends coverage to hard-to-reach areas, with plans for an offering of increased support for in-home WiFi through a “boost guarantee” later this year. Most Reliable Connection: Comcast is scaling the nation’s largest and most reliable network – the Xfinity 10G Network – that passes 60 million homes and business and counting. The company plans to launch a new device that is “storm-ready” with cellular and battery backup to help keep customers connected even when the power goes out. Ultra-Low Latency: The Xfinity 10G Network and the latest Xfinity Gateway are a powerful combination that deliver ultra-low latency for those moments when response times matter most like video games, a fast-growing category with Xfinity households averaging more than one gaming console per home. For local businesses, Comcast Business offers a suite of connectivity, communications, networking, cybersecurity, wireless, and managed solutions to help organizations of different sizes prepare for what’s next. Powered by the nation’s largest Gig-speed broadband network, and backed by 24/7 customer support, Comcast Business is the nation’s largest cable provider to small and mid-size businesses and one of the leading service providers to the Enterprise market. Comcast Business has been consistently recognized by industry analysts and associations as a leader and innovator, and one of the fastest-growing providers of Ethernet services.

While most sites which target the women-bettor demographic segment their offering by exclusively discussing women’s sports, BettingLadies.com differentiates itself through the discussion of both women’s and men’s sports. This mixed approach to female-targeted content enables bettors to participate in and enjoy wagering opportunities around dominant leagues such as the NBA, NHL and MLB, while also embracing the emerging market of women’s sports betting. “The genesis of BettingLadies.com is about making sports betting more accessible for women. I looked for content to help educate myself as a bettor, but found the majority of resources were clearly created to be consumed by a male audience,” said Val C. Martinez, CEO and founder of BettingLadies.com. “Multiple studies have found that nearly a third of the betting market is women, however the opportunities for female-centric content have been limited. While there are women content creators in the market, I strategically saw whitespace and wanted to create a new space where bettors could consume content from like-minded female sports fans, as well as build a platform where female creators can find a voice in the emerging sports betting market.” Martinez brings more than 20-years experience as a banker and financial executive, leading large business groups in major financial institutions, to her role as founder of BettingLandies.com. In addition to daily news from the sports world and daily betting lines, BettingLadies.com currently hosts the following signature elements: BettingLadies.com Community - Sign up and meet, interact and discuss betting with like-minded women. Lady Locks - Daily videos provide insights and betting information on the day’s biggest sporting events. Betting Guides - Educational videos, tutorials and how-to’s for all betting skills from beginners to the advanced. Tarot Reading - A fun free-to-play game for users to get their fortune on different sports betting experiences. The site’s most noted content creator is a professional wrestler and sports broadcast talent Danielle Kamela. In addition to writing for BettingLadies.com, Kamela creates the site’s signature digital asset, the daily “Lady Locks” series, which posts to Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. “What drew me to working with BettingLadies.com was Val’s vision to create an approachable, judgement free and inclusive community, built on educating and supporting the growth of women bettors across the country,” Kamela said. “As a fan and bettor of all sports, Lady Locks provides me the opportunity to be flexible in the content I create, moving seamlessly from NBA to MLB games and NFL games in the fall. I’m excited about the future of this site and giving a voice to women bettors.” In addition to Kamela, BettingLadies.com has plans to expand to more than a dozen featured personalities in the coming months. “Beyond the launch, our goal is to evolve BettingLadies.com to be synonymous with the betting experience for women. We’ll soon begin creating in-person regional betting events based on the growth of our community,” said Martinez. “We’re continually looking for new affiliate partners, as well as voices and creators, to scale and expand our content to new mediums, social platforms and sports. As a true first mover in this category, we see nothing but potential for the future of women sports bettors.” To learn more about the site and to sign up for the BettingLadies.com betting community, please visit BettingLadies.com.
