Bombardier Inc. has garnered a favorable outlook from multiple experts, positioning itself as a strong performer in the aerospace and defense sectors, particularly within the business jet market. The company has successfully reduced its debt and improved its balance sheet, transitioning into a pure-play business jet leader with impressive growth metrics, such as a 43% increase in the new order book and a 25% Year-over-Year growth in services. Despite challenges related to capital intensity and market dynamics, analysts point to significant demand for aircraft and advantageous government contracts as positive indicators. Nonetheless, the stock's valuation has come under scrutiny, with some experts suggesting it may now be fully priced, prompting considerations for profit-taking. Overall, Bombardier's operational turnaround since its near-bankruptcy days highlights its potential and the ongoing evolution of the aerospace industry.
(Top Pick Sep 17/12, Up 30.52) He trimmed a little. You could see normalized earnings at $0.75. It had a good run and you should take some profits, holding some still. You will see entry into service next year in the ‘C’ series and you will get a jump in the stock price. More countries are spending money on transportation infrastructure now.
If you are going to speculate, he feels you can get a company with much better upside. The problem is the number of shares that are outstanding. Have a big backlog and decent products but this is a situation where they are competing globally with companies that have government support. The upside might be $1-$2 if everything goes well in the market. If you are going to speculate, he would go for mid/small caps where you could quadruple or 5X your money if everything works out the same way.
(A Top Pick July 16/12. Up 28.71%.) The big question is when are they going to get the C series up. Has been delayed twice and now they are not giving a definitive date for it. He expects it will go up before the end of September. Results have been very, very good but, at the same time there are risk factors. Have taken on a lot more debt which makes things a little iffier. Still likes. His target is just a shade under $7.
Had the 1st test flight of their C series today. Over the next while, you are quite likely to see an increase in orders, as people have been sitting on the fence waiting. In the meantime, they have had success in other parts of the aircraft division as well as several good additions to the backlog of the transportation end. Thinks there could be significant upside over the next year.
