Vision Marine (NASDAQ: VMAR) Proves It Is One To Watch After Master Supply Agreement And Initial Purchase Order from Groupe Beneteau, a Global Market Leader in the Boating Industry

Benzinga

As 2022 winds down, investors are already looking to 2023 and the potential opportunities that await. One area that is set up for a big 2023 is the electric vehicles market. According to Reuters and other news outlets, 2023 is shaping up to see a big kickstart in mass production efforts for the EV market. However, the growth in EVs will not be limited to just cars, vans, and trucks. Electric boats continue to see heightened demand, as consumers look for alternatives to traditional combustible-engine-powered boats. A big portion of this demand is from potential big savings from less maintenance, no gas costs, and more eco-friendly compared to traditional boats. According to ResearchandMarkets, the global electric boating market is estimated to grow from $5 billion in 2021 to an estimated $16.6 billion by 2031. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.9% between 2022 to 2031. Vision Marine Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: VMAR) is an electric boating company that has already proven itself as a potential leader in the emerging industry after its recent collaboration with boating industry giant, Groupe Beneteau. VMAR and Beneteau Enter Into a Master Supply Agreement On December 13, 2022, Vision Marine and Groupe Beneteau announced they had entered into a formal Master Supplier Agreement. Under the terms of the supplier agreement, Vision Marine will supply Groupe Beneteau with its E-Motion 180E electric outboard motor, which is one of the world’s first purpose-built, fully electric outboard motor and powertrain systems, which will be equipped on Beneteau’s upcoming Four Winns H2e electric boat model. The Four Winns H2e boat is the first electric runabout available to consumers, which will be jointly marketed by both companies to Beneteau’s vast dealer network. Across five continents, Beneteau maintains a network of 400 dealers, including 72 dealers throughout the United States. Vision Marine’s E-Motion 180E outboard motor has undergone extensive testing and validation over recent months. Given the outboard motor’s design and durability, Beneteau saw the product as a perfect complement to its Four Winns H2e boat model. Keep in mind that Vision Marine’s E-Motion 180E outboard motor was also clocked as the fastest electric motor by reaching a top speed of 109 MPH at the 34 th annual Iconic Lake of the Ozarks shootout in August 2022. See the Four Winns H2e In Action At the Vision Marine Technologies Testing Facility in North Miami, Florida: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZ8VVnagS0Y "We are proud to enter into this strategic global supplier alliance with Groupe Beneteau. This represents an exciting milestone and inflection point for Vision Marine and its shareholders. We look forward to sharing our mutual mandates, and to assist Beneteau to expand its global carbon neutral goals via the electric transition of global waterways." stated Alex Mongeon, co-founder, and CEO of Vision Marine. “We expect our order book to show continuous growth as we approach the formal introduction of the H2e, as well as other offerings by Beneteau.” Vision Marine Receives First Purchase Order from Beneteau for 25 E-Motion 180E Motor Systems Following the announcement of the master supplier agreement, Vision Marine disclosed that Groupe Beneteau has also placed its initial purchase order for 25 E-Motion 180E outboard motor and powertrain systems. In addition, Beneteau says it will provide Vision Marine with a quarterly rolling forecast, which will include additional purchase orders for more outboard motor systems. The purchase order marks a big milestone for both companies. For Vision Marine, the purchase order from a major firm like Beneteau is a clear “proof of concept” for its E-Motion 180E system. Through all the testing and validation, VMAR has developed a quality product that is worthy of use in a trusted brand like Four Winns and Beneteau. Furthermore, the purchase order further solidifies the companies' partnership, as Beneteau aims to adapt its boating models to electrification by 2030. There is currently nothing else available on a commercial scale to OEMs or consumers, giving Vision Marine the key leadership role with its E-Motion system. "This initial order sets an important commercial milestone and reflects not only the value but also the trust Beneteau places in our innovative technology, as we expand fully electric propulsion systems globally across Beneteau’s formidable portfolio of brands,” stated Alex Mongeon, co-founder & CEO of Vision Marine. While the two companies did not disclose a specific price associated with the purchase order, there are clues out there that we can use to help determine the value. For instance, Vision Marine received a purchase order from The Limestone Boat Company (TSXV: BOAT) back in September 2022 for 25 E-Motion 180E powertrains. While unconfirmed, investors can estimate that Beneteau’s purchase order, which is also for 25 E-Motion 180E powertrain systems, is likely around the $2 million mark as well. Given Beneteau says it plans to provide additional purchase orders on a rolling basis, this represents a big opportunity for Vision Marine to grow revenues and further expand its operational milestones. Overall, 2022 has been a breakthrough year for Vision Marine. Throughout the year, Vision Marine has expanded its partnerships with Octillion Power Systems, Nextfour Solutions, Ltd., Groupe Beneteau, and more, to develop its proprietary powertrain system. This year also saw rigorous testing and validation of the powertrain system, which blew past expectations and is still the most powerful electric outboard motor available today. 2023 is shaping up to be a big year for Vision Marine. After laying a strong foundation in 2022, the company can now focus on expanding focus on sales, further developing its product line of electric boat models, and its revenue-generating boat rental business, which just recently expanded to Portside Ventura Harbor, California. Investors should take some time to take a deeper look into the over-looked electric boating market and the massive opportunity it presents through the next several years.

HeartBeam (NASDAQ: BEAT) Looks to Disrupt to Multi-Billion-Dollar Patch Market with its Patent-Protected 12-Lead ECG Patch Product

Benzinga

Monitoring a patient’s heart condition is an extensive undertaking considering the current standard of care practices. Up until a few years ago, heart patients seeking to have their condition monitored outside of a clinical environment were tasked with wearing a monitoring device called a Holter monitor. Holter monitors and records electrocardiographic signals from an individual as they go through their regular daily activities. Think of having an old "Walkman" with wires sticking out and strapped to you as you go through your daily life. Furthermore, the Holter monitor was developed in 1957 by Dr. Norman Holter. Given the incredible technology available today versus 1957, it is hard to believe the mobile ECG has not seen any major hardware updates in decades. HeartBeam (NASDAQ: BEAT) is one company that is working on a 21 st -century upgrade to the outdated wearable ECG market, using a convenient patch to help patients monitor their heart condition using a 12-lead ECG. What is the Importance of a 12-Lead ECG and Why Existing Patch Options Fall Short Wearable medical technologies continue to permeate into mainstream consumer electronics, as individuals look for ways to help monitor their health and wellness. Among the most popular wearables available right now is the Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) Watch. Consumers have been told they can monitor several different health and wellness metrics, including being able to take an ECG on the go. Unfortunately, what is not immediately known to those consumers is the fact the Apple Watch only uses a single-lead ECG. In the context of obtaining useful medical information, a single-lead ECG does not tell the patient or medical professionals very much at all. Single-lead ECGs only record one dimension of the heart's activity and do not provide the needed medical data to determine if an individual is having a heart attack or cardiac episode. The 12-lead ECG, on the other hand, provides a complete, standard of medical care, information for a patient’s heart. Rather than just monitoring rhythm, the 12-lead ECG provides diagnostic information needed for the detection of all heart diseases. For example, single-lead ECGs cannot detect ischemia, a condition that restricts blood flow to the heart and eventually results in a heart attack. Currently, there are a few patch products available on the market for heart patients. However, these products are largely single-lead and are only focused on diagnosing arrhythmias. These existing patch products are not capable of diagnosing any condition related to Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), which occurs when plaque builds along the heart's walls and can cause a life-threatening heart attack. Zio Patch by iRhythm Technologies (NASDAQ: IRTC) is considered to be the current market-leading patch option available today. However, the product again only has single-lead capabilities. Overall, the wearable ECG device market is estimated to be valued at a total addressable market of $2 billion in the United States alone, according to iRhythm. According to ResearchAndMarkets.com, the global ECG patch and Holter monitor market are estimated to reach $4.8 billion by 2030. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.16% between 2022 and 2030. With a CAGR of just under 20%, the patch and wearable ECG market is forecast to grow substantially faster than most other industries. HeartBeam’s disruptive technology could help them obtain a huge advantage over the existing products available today. HeartBeam’s Patch and AIMIGo ECG Technologies Through HeartBeam’s credit-card-sized AIMIGo 12-lead ECG device, patients at a high risk of heart attack can carry this ECG device in their purses or wallets without any major inconveniences to ensure anytime, anyplace monitoring. The company’s patch product is designed to be used by patients who are experiencing cardiac symptoms but do not have an existing underlying diagnosis. Despite HeartBeam’s high patient convenience factors the 12-lead data that is obtained is not reduced in value in any way. This ensures that patients and medical professionals are obtaining accurate health data to ensure a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Furthermore, combining the convenience of a credit card-sized device with a more powerful 12-lead ECG, means that medical professionals would not likely prescribe a single-lead option when a better option is available. Not only that HeartBeam solutions offer critical remotely collected highly relevant medical data for use in a treatment plan, but these devices have potentially more favorable economics to that medical practice as well. HeartBeam’s disruptive ECG products are protected by U.S. patents. In fact, the company’s patent portfolio accounts for six granted patents that serve as vital protection for its technology against competitors. These patents continue to help HeartBeam position itself as a major player in the high-growth industry of cardiac telehealth. Specifically for the 12-lead patch product, HeartBeam was granted a U.S. patent in September 2022. The patent (No. 11,419,538 B2) expanded on the company's previously granted patent (No. 11,071,490 B1) for a 12-lead ECG patch monitoring technology. These two issued patch patents serve as a major foundation for the company's intellectual footprint as the company looks to expand its technology to make cardiac patients and their medical professionals' treatment options more effective. Overall, HeartBeam’s planned 12-lead ECG patch product is reportedly the first-of-its-kind and only such technology in existence. The U.S. patents granted for this disruptive technology help to ensure HeartBeam is protected from competitors and can potentially commercialize the products once approved by the FDA. HeartBeam looks to be at the forefront of the mobile, wearable ECG market, which gives freedom to patients while also ensuring regular monitoring of their conditions. For investors, patients, and medical professionals, HeartBeam’s technologies look to be a major game-changer.

Spotlight Growth Shares 2 Small-Cap Stocks that could be Resilient in 2023

Benzinga

As investors look forward in preparation for 2023, small-cap stocks should be a key area of research. Overall, the majority of Wall Street estimates large-cap stocks in the S&P 500 (NYSE: SPY) to drop or remain largely unchanged over the next twelve months. Market watchers are anxiously watching the Federal Reserve’s every move, as they continue to raise interest rates and increase the risk of a global recession. As of December 2022, major global investment banks maintain a price target range between 3,675 and 4,500. As of this writing, the S&P 500 is trading at 3,895. The potential hit to large-cap earnings continues to be debated by investors, but small-caps remain an area of the market that actually has growing bullish sentiment. According to Bank of America (NYSE: BAC), Chief Investment Strategist Michael Hartnett said "Secular trends of stagflation, reshoring, localization, fiscal stimulus = small cap bull in 2023." In a recent blog post by Alliance Bernstein (NYSE: AB), James MacGregor, CFA (CIO of US Small & Mid Cap Value Equities), Bruce Aronow, CFA (CIO of Small & Mid Cap Growth Equities) and Samantha Lau (Co-CIO of Small & Mid Cap Growth Equities) penned an interesting article that supports the idea that small-cap stocks are further along in the recovery. “Small-cap stocks are also trading at extremely depressed valuations—the lowest in 20 years—compared to larger companies, based on price-to-earnings ratios. Current geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainties have disproportionately and indiscriminately impacted small companies. Investors have discounted further potential hazards for small-caps, without regard to company fundamentals. So, we think firms that offer resilient business models will stand out and benefit the most along the road to recovery,” according to the Alliance Bernstein article from December 2022. Looking ahead to 2023 with small-cap bullish sentiment building, here are two stocks that we believe have resilient business models and could weather any further economic & market volatility next year: Small-Cap #1: Asure Software (NASDAQ: ASUR) Asure Software is an Austin, Texas-based human capital management (HCM) cloud solutions provider in the United States. While the company is a small-cap with a current market cap of just under $180 million, Asure has been in business since 1985 and has continued to focus on developing tech innovations to help small-to-medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with streamlining their back office operations, such as human resources, taxes, payroll, employee benefits, and more. Shares of Asure have vastly outperformed the overall market with a positive year-to-date (YTD) gain of over 8.5%, as of mid-December 2022. This outperformance is a byproduct of the company’s strong resilience experienced throughout an economically-volatile year in 2022. Asure’s resilience was confirmed once SMBs began cutting costs across the board to prepare for a potential recession and continued economic uncertainty. However, these SMBs also realized that certain costs, like Asure’s suite of cloud HR technologies, actually help to save more money at the end of the day. Streamlining operations and helping to automate certain back-office tasks are essential for SMBs in all economic conditions, especially during uncertainty. In short, Asure’s payroll, FlexTax platform, vast 401(K) integrations, and other services actually help companies cut costs. Analysts covering Asure continue to maintain a bullish outlook on the small-cap tech company. Currently, the company has six analysts covering the stock with an average target price of $11.00 and a “buy” rating. Asure management is also forecasting a bullish 2023 after raising guidance during its Q3 2022 earnings release. For the fourth quarter of 2022, management estimates revenues to come between $23.5 million and $24 million. Adjusted EBITDA for the period is estimated to be between $3 million to $3.5 million. For the full-year 2023, Asure management sees total revenue between $98 million and $102 million, with an adjusted EBITDA margin range of 14% to 16%. Beating estimates is nothing new for Asure. Over its past nine quarterly financial results dating back to the third quarter of 2020, Asure has either met or exceeded revenue and EBITDA guidance. The only time Asure slightly missed estimates was back during Q1 2021, when EBITDA came in just under consensus. However, from Q2 2021 to current, Asure’s earnings outperformance has picked up steam. This perfectly aligns with the tightening of the overall macro-economic environment, which has been bullish for Asure, as SMBs look to cut costs and streamline operations. Despite its earnings prowess, Asure continues to fly under-the-radar. However, it appears only a matter of time before the Street begins to take notice of Asure on a grander scale. 2023 could be the year that Asure finally emerges as a key small-cap player, as the economic environments looks to continue favorable conditions for the company.

One of the largest space ETFs, the ARK Space Exploration & Innovation ETF (NYSE: ARKX) holds total assets of $265.19 million and has declined nearly 32% YTD, as of this writing. Individually speaking, Terran Orbital Corporation has had a 2022 to forget with a return of -86% YTD, through mid-December 2022. However, Terran Orbital is not like other SPAC space hype stocks out there and while the company is still working on profitability, its operational achievements set the company apart from its competition. Since its establishment in 2013, Terran Orbital has supported over 80 missions, which have resulted in the launch of more than 200 satellite services for NASA and the U.S. Department of Defense. Furthermore, Terran Orbital has continued to see strong revenue growth and even secured a $100 million investment from major aerospace & defense company Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE: LMT). The company also entered into a strategic cooperative agreement with Lockheed that extends collaboration into 2035. During the third quarter of 2022, Terran Orbital reported record revenue of $27.8 million, which represents year-over-year growth of 171% compared to the same period last year. The company's backlog exploded by 168% to $198 million since the end of 2021. The space company did report a net loss of $27.4 million, but that was an improvement compared to Q2 2022’s net loss result of $32.3 million. Currently, Terran Orbital has six analysts covering the stock. All six maintain a “buy” rating on the space company, with an average target of just over $11.00. This represents a potential upside of over 680% from its current price of $1.41.

Why New Year's Resolutions Fail

The Chicago School of Professional Psychology

Studies show that by February, 80 percent of New Year’s resolutions have been abandoned. So how do you make sure yours are among the 20 percent that are kept longer than a couple of months? Psychologists say it’s important to focus not on the goal but on the process of change. New Year’s resolutions often fail because they encourage a goal-oriented, rather than a process-oriented approach. It’s not about achieving a single goal, it’s about developing a habit or set of habits that result in the desired goal(s). “The process of change starts with understanding that a behavior is producing negative consequences,” says Dr. Michele Nealon, Psy.D., President of The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. “Then comes the internal negotiation—evaluating the pros and cons of changing. When you decide to change, then comes preparation, and this is critical—set yourself up for success.” “Next, decide your action steps and how you plan to maintain or modify these steps over time,” she adds. “Finally, plan for falling off the wagon—and get right back on track.” According to Dr. Nealon, this process can take weeks or months, so that is another reason why New Year’s resolutions often don’t work. “It’s difficult to wake up one day and suddenly decide you will change a long-held habit or practice,” she says. “Better to give yourself some time to think over the entire process and make sure that you are committed to change." She offers five tips for increasing chances of successful change include: Make change actionable and measurable Create a plan for incremental change; taking small steps to start Challenge yourself to be accountable or find an accountability partner Be forgiving; when you inevitably fall off the wagon, get back up About The Chicago School of Professional Psychology: Integrating theory with hands-on experience, The Chicago School of Professional Psychology provides education rooted in a commitment to innovation, service, and community for thousands of diverse students across the United States and globally. Founded in 1979, the nonprofit, regionally accredited university now features campuses in iconic locations across the country (Chicago, Southern California, Washington, D.C., New Orleans, Dallas) and online. To spark positive change in the world where it matters most, The Chicago School has continued to expand its educational offerings beyond the field of psychology to offer more than 30 degrees and certificates in the professional fields of health services, education, counseling, business, and more.

Multipolar Development Corporation Early Modeling Success Paving Way for New Direct Current Electric Machine Prototype

Multipolar Development Corporation

Multipolar Development Corporation (MDC) an electrical engineering company announced a key design milestone in the development of its novel Multi-Polar Technology™ electric vehicle (EV) propulsion enhancement system. Models are proving that MDC’s patented technology will improve efficiencies in overall performance and range of operation, particularly in large consumer vehicle trucks and commercial transport vehicles. MDC engineers and partners are completing a finite element method (FEM) model for a 10 kW 2 kV prototype direct current (DC) electric machine that demonstrates the ability to operate at higher DC voltages and without the need for a commutator. “Multi-Polar represents one of the single greatest incremental improvements in motor technology I have seen in more than 25 years,” stated engineering expert and MDC team member Arie Hirshbein, “I am thrilled and excited to be part of the development team at this early stage.” “The machine analyzed could be operated like a one-phase brushless machine, providing an advantage in control that could provide flexibility at different operating points of the motor. Without a need for rare earth permanent magnets, Multipolar technology provides a huge advantage in the performance of the motor and avoids supply chain and environmental issues associated with permanent magnets currently utilized,” Hirshbein continued. “Since the failure and maintenance of commutators have made higher power of DC electric machines impractical, the success of our model bodes well for its future in an industrial setting,” stated Multipolar inventor Shaun McCutcheon. “The Multi-Polar design is expected to allow high motor torque performance, including a high starting torque, making it suitable for heavy industrial applications and large electric vehicles (EV’s).” “The modeling is paving the way for us to demonstrate and prove the gains in overall system efficiency that our technology achieves through a physical prototype. We are designing a prototype based on the current computer models and showcasing the significant practical use of the technology,” McCutcheon continued. MDC technology modeling employs an advanced software and firmware-based control system that adjusts the polarity and the magnetic field strength of each electromagnetic pole within an electric motor or generator to achieve the desired operation. The control system relies on sensor data about the position and speed of the rotor to optimize pole parameters in real-time to enhance performance. The FEM model simulates 42 and 78 poles within a rotating machine and provides a numerical solution for the electromagnetic fields and relevant voltages. Recent simulations achieved rectification of generator output exceeding 2000 V DC at speed with no brushes or commutator in the model, resulting in a significant proof of concept for the design. Multi-Polar motors will require fewer external drive components as the speed and torque are managed directly by the advanced control system. Unlike standard DC brushless machines, they will require only two power connections. The wide range of operational speeds at full power – owing to the ability to change the number of poles virtually – will allow MDC’s machines to be repurposed through software and firmware changes rather than being replaced or redesigned. The advanced control system will also be able to compensate for efficiency losses due to mechanical imperfections or damage. “Multipolar moves us into a truly digital machine age – an advanced machine without many of the inherent inefficiencies and limitations of classic electromagnetic energy conversion,” McCutcheon explained. “The modeling proves our technology has the potential to shock the EV industry and advance it to a new level of efficiency and performance.” Multipolar Development Corporation is an Austin, TX-based S-Corp comprised of energy, electric, and automotive engineering experts. ### Please visit: https://www.multipolarmachine.com/ For more information or to schedule an interview with Shaun McCutcheon, please contact Dan Rene of kglobal, at daniel.rene@kglobal.com or 202-329-8357 Contact Details kglobal Dan Rene +1 202-329-8357 daniel.rene@kglobal.com Company Website https://www.multipolarmachine.com/

Travel Technology Association Files Comments with U.S. Department of Transportation on Airline Ticket Refunds and Consumer Protections

Travel Tech

The Travel Technology Association (Travel Tech), the voice of the travel technology industry and a consistent advocate for public policy that supports a competitive and transparent marketplace, filed comments today in response to the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on “Airline Ticket Refunds and Consumer Protections,” – Docket No. DOT-OST-2022-0089. "On behalf of consumers and our member companies that serve them, the Travel Technology Association is proud to stand with the U.S. Department of Transportation in assuring once and for all that airline travelers are made whole when their flights are canceled,” said Travel Tech President and CEO Laura Chadwick. “You get what you pay for, and when you don't, you should get your money back." "We welcome the Department's decision to define what constitutes a ‘canceled flight’ and ‘significant change to flight itinerary.’ These definitions will bring much-needed uniformity and clarity to what have been fraught and stressful experiences for travelers facing weather or airline staffing issues," Chadwick continued. "Great customer service, whether before, during, or after a trip, is key to the value Travel Tech members offer. These definitions will help online travel agents better support their customers navigating frustrating flight cancellations and the labyrinth of airline customer service systems." The Travel Technology Association’s full comments may be viewed at: https://www.traveltech.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/Comments-of-The-Travel-Technology-Association.pdf In its comments, the Travel Technology Association explains that ticket agents are already bound to issue refunds “promptly” after airlines provide the authorization and funds to do so. In its draft rule, the Department proposes that customers receive refunds within seven days. However, it takes up to eleven days to secure refunds from airlines' payment and refund systems. "To require refunds before the funds are returned by the airline – as the proposed rule currently demands – would impose an undue financial burden and risk on ticket agents. We encourage the Department to revise this part of its proposal to reflect that airlines’ payment and refund systems are beyond the control of ticket agents.” ### About Travel Tech The Travel Technology Association (Travel Tech) is the voice of the travel technology industry, advocating for public policy that promotes transparency and competition in the marketplace to encourage innovation and preserve consumer choice. Travel Tech represents the leading innovators in travel technology, including global distribution systems, online travel agencies and metasearch companies, travel management companies, and short-term rental platforms.
