NXT seems to be the favourite of the big broker houses - RBS helps them raise capital, overwrites, then sells to its clients.
Fundamentals aside (and clearly MAQ is better off... with no long term debt and no leasing liability). Also... MAQ grew profits, grew EPS and has enough cash to cover its short term liabilities, i.e. accounts payable.
The two aren't even in the same league. One is a debt-funded speculative play on soaring demand for run of the mill data centre storage... The other is a niche, high margin, investment in high security data centres.
They both have their risks but the barriers for entry in MAQ's target market are higher, and there is less risk of margins being destroyed by competition (or surplus supply).
