Hi tkc,

Just to clarify re use of ATM.

Not saying it will not be needed. Just that it was needed far less in May than I expected. Since a zero cash balance provides a lower bound for a debt-free company, and since the balances were already stretched in Q1, then that forces me to certain conclusions.

Income is covering the deficiency.

And/or expenses are being deferred.

Since we know more-or-less what Wave's expenses are, then we can make decent guesses on the income side.

Wave may find that June is softer than May, in which case the $1/2m or so I presume they required this month would not be adequate and extended use of the ATM would be necessary. I just think whatever they need is not going to be massively dilutive from here. Even if they sold 5m shares at 90 cents, that is nothing like the doom I was worried about. I had something like 20m shares at 30 cents as a possibility after the dismal Q1 results and assuming an equal or worse Q2.

Hi CF, I was away and in catching up I read your and Dog's comments re: likely no more need for ATM use this Q. I was merely butting in. Re: your SMB uptake. It's interesting how A/R as a % of new business has increased over the passed 3 Qs (it's been above 60%) which is nearly double what it had historically been. This suggests that the majority of new sales has recently been in the last month of the Q OR Wave is extending its terms to 60 days. SMB may need the extended terms. I haven't attempted to SWAG Q2 billings as I was so very surprised at Q1 being so weak.
