ATS Automation Tooling Systems (ATS-T) has garnered positive sentiment from various analysts despite some recent volatility in stock performance. The latest quarter saw revenue exceed expectations, although bookings showed signs of softening, prompting a focus on higher-quality businesses rather than immediate growth. A strong backlog and improving margins have been highlighted, suggesting resilience in the business model even amidst muted earnings due to factors unrelated to demand. Analysts express optimism, with price targets hovering around $49-50 and a potential upside of 10-25%, indicating that the stock still represents a favorable entry point for investors despite a recent dip in price. The company is well-positioned to capitalize on trends in automation linked to reshoring and modernization in manufacturing.

HOLD

Had a much harder row to hoe than he expected. Still likes. He is hopeful that they'll off their solar unit before the end of the year. This plan has been in the making for a couple of years now and it looks like they are closer to a final solution. Hopefully there will be some traction when the economy improves. Target price of $20+.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Jul 13/10, Up 28.82%) Largest holding in portfolio (10%). Seems to finally be in turnaround mode. Revenues skyrocketed last quarter. Still have to clean up problems in photo division.

HOLD

Chart shows a huge symmetrical triangle for about 1.5 years across. This is basically a gunfight between bulls and bears. There has been a breakout on the upside, which is very bullish.

HOLD

Currently trading at about where he bought it. Hasn’t done much for him over the couple of years he has had it. Turning around but they have their solar unit that is hurting them and until they sell this it will be difficult for them. He has a target price of $22.

BUY

Having difficulties with solar operation. If they spin it off there are all kinds of questions about what shareholders will receive. As economy recovers it is a real bell weather. Longer term it should do well. It remains on his buy list.

HOLD

Good company but one of its divisions, Photoaut (?) out of France is hurting so they are stuck. Likes management. Not expensive. Will be a work in progress.

HOLD

2 business including automation systems business and solar. She attributes no value to the latter. She’ll continue to Hold for 2 quarters in hopes the economy will bring them back on side.

BUY

Recent earnings were disappointing to a lot of people. Made money, but not much. Looking to sell their solar division. Good management.

TOP PICK

Problem is that their revenues fell off last year. But they managed stay profitable until this last quarter. But it was a write off due to silicon. CEO knows what he is doing. Positioning it for growth. Has a lot of faith in him. Could see a triple.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 1/09. Up 62.5%.) Good management. Revenues went down above 40% in the last quarter. Think they can triple from this level. Still a Buy.

BUY

Started buying because of the solar division. They are possibly looking to sell their solar division. Likes the management. Think they have a long way to go. As the economy returns it would not surprise him to see it go over $20.

BUY

Occupies a prominent place in his president’s portfolio. A favorite and a contrarian pick. It is a serial disappointer. Global trade fell off a cliff last year and this hit ATS but they were still making money so that tells him they can size operations and workforce. If you believe this economic recovery is going to get some traction then it is well leveraged to that and will do well. A long term hold for him.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 5/09. Up 60%.) Sold his holdings and took a slight loss. Wouldn't be surprised to see this go to at least $9 before the summer and potentially $10 before year-end. If you own, get out if it drops below $7.80.

BUY

Likes management. Cut a lot of costs and increased revenues. Plan to do some solar work in Ontario. They have debt under control. He has a lot of confidence in this company. This quarter will not be that good because the backlog is down. He’s comfortable with this one. As things recover they can do well.

TOP PICK

Auto Industry but they have been going through a tremendous turn around. They are also in the solar industry. Backlog is up. They are profitable now.
