TOP PICK

Dry transformers. Spending fair bit of money to ramp up production and capabilities. Strong balance sheet. Data centres are going to use a lot of power, so the story will continue. Trades ~10x EBITDA, but growing at really high teens multiples for revenue and EBITDA. Yield is 0.8%.

(Analysts’ price target is $165.00)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate this producer of electric transformers as a TOP PICK.  Management announced an acceleration of capital deployment, supporting the trend for growing demand for its products.  We like that cash reserves are growing, while debt is reduced.  It trades at 20x earnings and supports a 28% ROE.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $75) to $95, looking to achieve $146 -- upside potential of 28%.  Yield 0.6%

BUY

Is exposed to all the right verticals. They make transformers to optimize energy, driven by the AI boom (the need for data centres). There's still upside despite the huge rally. Business is booming, and the growth trajectory is good. Trades at 18x PE, but growth makes the future PE reasonable.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

HPS-A is the manufacturer of electric transformer systems used by electric utilities, the oil & gas sector and for EV charging stations.  Recently reported earnings indicated record high quarterly sales and a 6% increase in earnings.  We like that cash reserves are growing, while debt is retired.  It trades at 22x earnings and supports a 25% ROE.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $75, looking to achieve $130 -- upside potential of 28%.  Yield 1.0%

COMMENT

Shares have taken off due to the electrification of the grid, driven by EV demand. Kudos if you own this, but he doesn't buy smallcaps. Owners own a lot of shares. Needs to research this more.

electrical / electronic
BUY

Big tech and data centres need more power, because AI consumes a lot. Hammond plays into this.

electrical / electronic
DON'T BUY

Surprisingly, this is doing well, returning 10x your investment over 2 years. HPS has benefited from the boom in energy storage and data centres. Revenues and margins have shot up, so can they sustain this? He doesn't chase stocks that have shot up.

electrical / electronic
BUY

Canadian company that produces equipment for electrical business. Demand for EV cars, and electricity in general creating strong demand for products. Outlook for business very strong. Would expect large capital gains going forward. 

electrical / electronic
BUY

Are positioned well. Sadly, he missed buying this much cheaper. This still has legs. Still fairly valued now.

electrical / electronic
BUY
It has trouble breaking past $7.50, but he would look for a nice-volume move breaking above $7.50, then see if it breaks $10. Expect a little resistance above $8. The chart looks pretty good.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 18/18, Down 21%) They've been under margin pressure that he didn't expect. So,he exited in late-2018. This holding was a mistake, and mistakes can happen in investing. You must know when to cut your losses.
electrical / electronic
COMMENT
Seasonality is Dec.2-April 15 when it beats the benchmark by 21%. These tech-related stocks are starting to bottom lately, but not outperforming during the market low. That said, it is a rounded bottom since Q4 2018 and is curently holding its lows. If it can prop higher, this could be a tremendous buying opportunity. The 50-day average is $6.
electrical / electronic
PARTIAL BUY

Hold or maybe buy more. It is dominant in electrical transformers. Businesses overseas are starting to turn around. Their end markets are all doing very well right now. It should do well over the next few years. It checks a lot of the boxes for him.
