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.

Transforming Plastic Waste Management: The Impact of SMX’s Track and Trace System

Security Matters PLC

Plastic waste has emerged as one of the most pressing environmental issues of the 21st century, posing significant threats to ecosystems and life on Earth. Each year, millions of tons of plastic waste end up in our oceans, landfills, and even in remote parts of the world, causing devastating impacts on wildlife, marine life, and the overall health of our planet. These synthetic materials, designed for durability and longevity, can take hundreds of years to decompose, thereby persisting in the environment for extended periods. Microplastics, tiny fragments resulting from the breakdown of larger plastic items, have infiltrated even the most remote corners of the globe and are increasingly found in the food chain. Moreover, the production and disposal of plastics contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, further exacerbating climate change. Addressing the plastic waste crisis requires innovative solutions that not only enhance recycling efficiency but also promote a circular and sustainable economy. SMX’s Innovative Technologies Stands Ready To Help Improve The Pressing Plastic Waste Issue SMX (NASDAQ: SMX), is an innovative circular economy company, set to revolutionize the plastics industry with its cutting-edge track and trace technology. This organization is dedicated to digitizing physical objects on the blockchain, a strategy aimed at promoting a circular and closed-loop economy. Their patented technology utilizes an indelible chemical-based biomarker to "mark" any object—solid, liquid, or gas. This unique barcode can be deciphered using the company's proprietary 'reader,' which pulls up the corresponding stored data, safeguarded by the immutable nature of blockchain technology. In April 2022, the company made headlines in the recycling world after successfully concluding commercial readiness trials for their pioneering plastic tracking system. At the heart of this innovation is an industrial-grade identification, authentication, and sorting conveyor belt designed specifically for the plastics sector. As they anticipate the commercial deployment of this revolutionary technology, SMX is actively engaged in promising discussions with various strategic partners, promising a new era for plastic recycling. SMX Technology Can Track and Trace Plastic Throughout Its Lifecycle, Helping the Environment & The Plastics Industry SMX’s innovative technology stands to greatly benefit the plastics industry by reducing waste and increasing recycling, ultimately bolstering environmental sustainability while also enhancing the industry's efficiency. Their patented marking technology, which assigns a unique chemical-based biomarker to objects, enables an unprecedented level of tracking and tracing throughout the lifecycle of plastic products. This paves the way for more effective sorting and recycling, since stakeholders can now precisely identify the type of plastic, the manufacturer, the percentage of recycled content, and even the number of times it has been recycled. The revolutionary conveyor belt detector, an integral component of their comprehensive solution, provides reliable data readings at every stage of the supply chain. This allows stakeholders to seamlessly transfer ownership of materials and products, record essential data, and attach critical documents via the intuitive interface. This game-changing innovation provides unparalleled transparency, enabling users to effortlessly track and trace plastic packaging throughout every stage of the value chain, from sorting to mechanical recycling. Such heightened transparency and traceability facilitates the creation of a digital twin of the product, thus illuminating every stage of its value chain. This can drastically improve the sorting capabilities of recycling and waste management facilities, and subsequently increase the percentage of plastic that is effectively recycled. By doing so, SMX’s technology aids in driving a more sustainable future for plastics, promoting a circular and closed-loop economy that mitigates plastic waste and its associated environmental impact. Moreover, this cutting-edge system has the potential to unlock the ability to reclaim and reuse all types of plastic content, bridging the gap for plastic circularity. By offering a solution that can be customized to individual requirements, such as detecting specific "marked" polymers among other waste, SMX is well-positioned to revolutionize plastic waste management and recycling. The versatility of SMX’s technology extends its applications across a broad range of industries from automotive to electronics, fashion and food. The chemical-based marker is applicable to solids, liquids, and gases, while the conveyor belt system can be tailored to specific needs, such as reading various types of packaging, detecting marked polymers among other waste, and modifying the dimensions and speed of the conveyor belt. As global concerns about plastic waste and sustainability persist, SMX’s innovative track and trace technology offers a promising solution to increase recycling efficiency and foster a circular and closed-loop economy in the plastics industry.

MYANIML EXPANDS PREDICTIVE HEALTH PLATFORM USING MUZZLES TO DETECT DISEASE IN CATTLE

MyAnIML

Using its AI-enabled predictive health platform to improve the security of the beef and dairy supply chain through early disease prediction, MyAnIML™ released today new geolocation technology to identify and find sick cattle 2-3 days in advance of symptoms to protect the health of the herd. MyAnIML’s patent-pending technology employs artificial intelligence and machine learning to predict a broad range of total health indicators using the industry’s first facial - specifically a cow’s muzzle - recognition library dataset, designed and built by MyAnIML. Its newly released Bluetooth-enabled ear tag helps producers quickly find the individual animal in the herd in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. “We know from advances in human biometrics and deep-learning technology that the face can be a reliable predictor of disease. Using the same concept, we can now “fingerprint” an individual cow’s muzzle to monitor its health and predict a variety of issues days in advance,” said Shekhar Gupta, MyAnIML’s founder and CEO, who discovered and commercialized the first-of-its-kind technology solution in animal agriculture. “By addressing symptoms early, we can better ensure the health and well-being of the entire herd for a more reliable and efficient food supply chain.” Together, the hardware and software stack offer the global beef and dairy industries a more precise method of herd health management when profit margins continue to be razor thin and the cost of meat, dairy and other food products remain high. Based on a comprehensive analysis of cattle lost to diseases, cost of medical treatment and low productivity impacts, MyAnIML estimates the U.S. cattle industry loses approximately $200 billion annually. For example, Bovine Respiratory Disease (BRD) costs the U.S. feedlot industry up to $900 million annually in treatment costs, and total industry losses are much higher when productivity losses are factored in, according to the American Society of Animal Science. BRD is just one of many diseases and health metrics MyAnIML identifies days before other health technologies, allowing producers to isolate the animal and start earlier treatment. Predictive Analytics Reduces Antibiotics Use and Creates More Resilient Supply Chains Earlier treatment means cattle producers can use antibiotics more efficiently, reducing costs and inhibiting the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, a rising concern amongst health professionals. More than 70% of all medically important antibiotics sold in the U.S. are used in livestock production. The cattle industry takes up the bulk of that demand, using antibiotics to treat sick animals and as a preventative measure. A typical 5000-head feedlot spends $250,000 annually on antibiotics just to preemptively treat calves for BRD, Gupta said. “Antibiotics have been a powerful tool to keep U.S. herds healthy, but by identifying infected animals days earlier in the disease cycle, producers can reduce the risk to the herd by an individual animal. It’s a win-win for producers and consumer health,” Gupta said. AI and Bluetooth Technology Identifies A Sick Cow In Large-Scale Operations MyAnIML ’s Bluetooth ear tag was developed specifically to help large-scale commercial feedlots, stockyards and dairies implement predictive health technology into day-to-day operations. Unlike other ear tag technology in the market, like RFID tags, MyAnIML’s tag helps pen riders quickly find a specific animal using their mobile device, saving hours of labor and more rapidly removing sick animals from the herd. “In a large-scale, or even small-scale system, being able to accurately predict a sick cow is a huge benefit. But finding that animal has been like finding a needle in a haystack,” said Nathan Leiker, a northwestern Kansas cow-calf and feedlot operator using the MyAnIML technology since early 2022. “MyAnIML’s Bluetooth ear tags connect the dots between disease prediction and animal identification. Now I just check my phone and it takes me directly to the cow I want.” How it works: Strategically mounted cameras take multiple images of cows’ muzzles daily, monitoring for changes. Images are analyzed against MyAnIML’s library of health indicators. When a sick animal is detected, an alert with its ID is sent to the rancher. MyAnIML’s geolocation app’s directional arrows and audio signal leads ranchers directly to that animal. Commercially available in the U.S. since 2022 with multiple large installations and pilot projects underway in 2023, MyAnIML has attracted international interest and plans rapid scale-up in the coming years. Ranchers or dairy producers interested in implementing the technology can visit myaniml.com for more information. About MyAnIML MyAnIML, an AI startup for animal agriculture, invented and commercialized the first-of-its-kind platform for early disease prediction in cattle using facial recognition technology focused on a cow’s muzzle. The initial discovery is the product of intense curiosity and a sense of purpose by the founder, a computer scientist, and his wife, a physician. Founded in 2021, MyAnIML’s mission is to help ensure the health and well-being of cattle while ensuring an affordable and safe food supply. Partnering with veterinarians, land grant universities and ranchers, the company’s experience developing and scaling data platforms for other industries is now being applied to animal agriculture.

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.

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.

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.
