Bombardier Inc (BBD.B-T) has garnered positive attention from experts, largely due to its impressive turnaround and focus on the aerospace and defense sectors. Analysts highlight the company's strong balance sheet, robust order growth, and expansion in the services division, which has shown significant year-over-year increases. Although concerns about capital intensity and economic sensitivity of private jets remain, many see promising catalysts such as government contracts and a growing international market. Some analysts indicate that while Bombardier has been performing well, the current valuation may suggest a cautious approach, recommending to trim positions rather than add to them, especially after substantial price increases. Overall, there's optimism for continued growth amid the evolving market landscape.

DON'T BUY
Potential to be a great Canadian company however, does not understand recent management decisions. Too many moving parts to place a value on the company. Stock not performing well. Time will tell whether management decisions pay off, but until then, do not buy.
COMMENT
Strong performance of the stock the past year must be put into perspective. Long term holders have been disappointed with stock price over the long term. Private jet business has supported the business. Balance sheet stretched however valuation is still high.
WATCH
It has been a great winner in the last ten months. It has refocused as a pure play business jet operation. It is a lot leaner and a lot more focused. It is now a show-me story.
DON'T BUY
Top performer on the TSX this year. Every penny stock has its day. Rough time for years. Holding garage sales for the last 10 years. Problematic. They've burned all the furniture, and they're down to card tables and plastic chairs. Taxpayers have been bailing it out. Low margin, high risk.
RISKY
Investors have had an aversion to this name for a long time. A few good quarters and free cashflow. Lots of demand for their product. Stock is ahead of itself at 12x vs. 10x for peers. Very loaded balance sheet. A whippy name. If it moves down to $1.20-1.30, might be worth putting some risk capital to work.
PARTIAL SELL
It's a tough one. It's a bet on the near-term future on corporate jets. It's a huge debate given Covid. Jets are safer than commercial flights. Then again, businesspeople can meet on Zoom, not in person after a flight. Also, companies are getting scored on ESG and private jets score negatively. Take profits.
DON'T BUY
Worst is behind them. He wouldn't buy it. Doesn't like the roots of its governance. Peaked at $25 in 2000 and has declined since then. Has benefited Quebec, but if a company can't also generate value for shareholders, there's no reason to buy it. Private jet market is either hot or cold. Worries about the balance sheet.
DON'T BUY
A perpetually challenging stock. They now focus on aircraft. Their balance sheet continues to be a problem; they're still burning cash flow even though they're winding down their capex program this year. As demand for business jets increases with reopening, then their balance sheet can improve in coming years, though it's not guaranteed. He would avoid this.
DON'T BUY
They have too much debt for their business model. Before at least they were more diversified but getting rid of their metro car division makes it operate in a narrow space. It is a risky bet. The C-Series put them in a massive hold.
SELL
It has really been bankrupt for year, if not for continual government bailouts. Get out of this position. Think of quality US names right now.
DON'T BUY
It's no longer investment grade, but a trading stock. Too much has fallen apart, like the jet division being sold to Europe. There are so many balls in the air, like a new untested management team.
DON'T BUY
It is a poorly managed company, highly leveraged, in financial distress and he would not own any part of it, not common, not preferreds, not the corporate bonds not even the most senior most ones. It is not out of the question that this company goes bankrupt.
DON'T BUY
Since 2000, they have had negative free cashflow. They have been unable to generate enough cashflow to cover capital expenditures. Things have gotten more expensive along the way and the debt load is weighing down. Most of it is coming due in the next 3 years. They have sold off most assets that they could, and they may sell off their private jet business. However, it will not be enough to cover the debt load. He would look at the bonds if you want a Bombardier but he wouldn't be a buyer.
DON'T BUY
They're talking to Textron to unload their jets division, which means they will make only trains. But their trains are lemons; just ask Toronto, London and New York which openly complained about the poor quality. He sees no upside in BBD, and they carry massive debt. A hole.
DON'T BUY
Will they sell their train or business jet division? He sold this a long time ago after they kept failing to build a plane and increasing their costs. They must sell something to capitalize their balance sheet that carries around $10 billion net debt. He doesn't know what they'll sell. Investors have a sour taste over the company, which lacks credibility on the street.
