Where to Next for Leafbuyer Technologies Inc (OTCMKTS:LBUY)?

If you want to know what it feels like to ride a roller coaster, just ask a Leafbuyer Technologies Inc (OTCMKTS:LBUY) shareholder. The stock has been all over the map over the past three weeks but now sits basically in the middle of a wide whipsaw range with roots down under $0.70 from late September and branches poking above $2.30. It’s enough to make the head spin.

Which way will it go from here? Well, if the company’s sales are the determining factor, then the answer could come from its latest announcement of booming quarterly sales, with results up 67% in the period ending September 30th, 2018, compared to the same period the previous year. “We recently reported our FY sales results that ended on June 30th with a 42% growth rate. This recent quarter significantly increased that acceleration. The average monthly spend per customer is steadily increasing and we are seeing higher demand for our products in all of the legal states we cover,” said Leafbuyer Chairman and CEO, Kurt Rossner.

Trying to Push the Squeeze

LBUY, as noted, just declared itself in a top-line boom. It will be interesting to see if shares can follow that lead.

“We continue to make investments in future product development. Leafbuyer delivers solutions that drive more value to our customers. Our new product bundles are being well received by the market. We not only drive consumers to dispensaries, we continue to monetize that relationship month after month,” said Leafbuyer COO, Mark Breen.

Shares of LBUY, as noted above, have been riding the roller coaster over the past month, but mostly upward, rallying roughly 30% in that time on strong overall action. Furthermore, the listing has witnessed a pop in interest, as transaction volume levels have recently pushed nearly 230% over the long run average.

This is particularly important with the stock trading on a float that is tight at just 18.3M shares. It’s something the veterans know to key on: a jump in average daily transaction volume in a stock with a restricted float can unleash fireworks as supply is squeezed in the scramble to buy or cover.
