Weekly small cap wrap: Who won the lottery this week?

The lives of two people from Queensland and one from New South Wales changed forever after last night’s $150 million Powerball jackpot.

The three lucky winners will pocket $50 million each after beating out half the Australian population who entered as well. We can only imagine what it’d be like to win.

But as an event that occurred 44 years ago today shows, there are other things in life to win at.

ASX SMALL CAP WINNERS:

Kyckr (ASX: KYK) +150%

Many ASX boards may think to themselves that events such as a major investor buying in are just as good as winning the lottery. And for a tech company such as Kyckr that’s aspiring to grow like WiseTech (ASX: WTC) there’s nothing quite like Wisetech’s founder, Richard White, buying up a cornerstone stake in the business. That is just what happened on Thursday when Kyckr received a ringing endorsement from the boss himself. “I can see in Kyckr, a product, business and opportunity set that can be leveraged and accelerated to major advantage,” White said.

Candy Club (ASX: CLB) +75%

Investor James Bailleu is taking his faith in the sweets-as-a-service stock to the next level. He will become chairman and put in another $3 million (half in shares and the other in a bridging loan), taking his stake in the business to 28.5 per cent. The stock is 75 per cent higher than last Friday which means Baillieu — who bought in at 8 cents per share — has made an on-paper gain of around $375,000.

YPB Group (ASX: YPB) +50%

The product authentication provider began the week with a big breakthrough. China’s leading security label supplier, PanPass, signed on as its first client to prevent QR codes from being counterfeited. A $2.5 million capital raise announced today drew it back from earlier highs but it still posted a weekly gain of 50 per cent.

ASX SMALL CAP LOSERS:

BMG Resources (ASX: BMG) -46%

Its tough enough as it is being a lithium miner, even in the Lithium triangle with low prices due to an over supply. But BMG Resources told shareholders on Friday morning ‘no brine has been intersected to date’ at its project.

Aus Tin Mining (ASX: ANW) – 33%

Another stock that had bad drilling results and hence a bad Friday. The Tasmanian focused tin miner announced its mine truck experienced transmission problems so had to be sent to the repair workshop. This was on top of its mine excavator failing a few weeks ago. The company said it is now reviewing the project to determine the most efficient means of extracting value from the project. While it told shareholders it would provide an update in early October, some shareholders did not want to wait.

Smiles Inclusive (ASX: SIL) – 22%

The dental stock has asserted for months that things were turning around. But the ASX received information suggesting otherwise – and it confirmed just $323,344 was left in the bank plus $1.2 million Bartercard trade dollars. The company said it would stay afloat but shareholders kept dumping the stock – which is now over 95 per cent down from its IPO price.
