Fintech Select Ltd., with a market cap of CA$2.80 million, has recently become profitable, reporting net income growth and sales of CA$1.31 million for the second quarter of 2024. Despite its profitability and outstanding return on equity (1162%), the company remains highly volatile and trades significantly below its estimated fair value. It has no debt but faces liquidity challenges as short-term assets do not cover liabilities. Recent changes in auditors may affect investor confidence, though these were due to external factors unrelated to financial performance. The board's average tenure suggests experienced governance amidst these developments.
