According to
Nextech AR's (OTCQB: NEXCF) MDNA, the company defines "Total
Bookings" as "the total dollar value of all services / goods
included in contracts with our customers."
Zacks Investment Research
wrote in
their report on Nextech AR (OTCQB: NEXCF) "If we were to take the ratio
of bookings to revenues of Q3 2020 at 72.5%, which is our only data
point so far, that would equate to revenues between $36 million and
$44 million in revenues for 2021. As a result, we have increased
our 2021 revenue estimate to a conservative $35 million until we
have more clarity on how bookings will translate into
revenues."
NEXCF
may not be at these levels much longer.
Nextech AR (OTCQB: NEXCF) shares bounced slightly from Friday's
lows to close right at about the 200 EMA.
Zacks Small Cap Research Continued:
Augmented Reality (AR) is
just beginning to make its way into mainstream use and the market
is exploding. NexTech AR is the only public pure
play we know of that is providing services to allow companies to
use AR in marketing and advertising their goods. At a small price
to vendors per month per SKU, adoption of just a tiny percent of
the trillions of products sold worldwide will create a massive
revenue stream for NexTech AR.

Zacks Investment Research Valuation of Nextech AR (OTCQB: NEXCF)
$8.60 per share.
"We have taken a group of
companies involved in augmented reality as well as companies that
provide conferencing like Jolokai. At current valuations we
get an average of 24.8 times EV/2021 Sales. So using US$27.4 million for
2021 estimated sales, and a 24.8 multiple, NexTech could be worth an enterprise
value as high as US$680 million or a market value of $696 million.
Dividing by the current fully diluted share count of 80.8 million,
this would be a market value of US$8.60 per share or CN$11.00 per
share."
How does the
CEO feel about the company? Mr. Evan Gappelberg,
CEO of Nextech AR Solutions (OTCQB: NEXCF) purchased shares in his

and once
