BUY

After a stunning fall from grace, there's been a stunning recovery. FMV is 127% higher than it's currently trading, and it's been there before. Looks like a resurrection.
A covered call He likes covered calls and you can do it with BHC. Write them and take the premium here. BHC has been rangebound, but demographics favour health stocks. However, governments will limit pricing of health services.
If it can continue on volume, it looks very positive. It has built a nice base and it’s worthy of a buy. Support should be around $27. He would aim for the 100 day moving average.
He gives managements kudos for restructuring the business. They are still heavily indebted. He is looking for valuation with consistent cashflow which this is not. It's not the type of company he looks at.
He likes and owns it. It is basically the old broken valiant. He likes the space and he likes the big time drugs. These stocks offer incredible value. His model price is $72.41, 122% upside. Buy it when it comes down again. Buy half on the way in.
The old Valent Pharmaceutical company. When it became over-levered it struggled. He thinks there are far better opportunities in the health care space.
A turnaround story. They have done a good job stabilizing the company. It has a lot of debt and legal issues to resolve. The debt levels are probably still too high. They are spinning out their eyecare business which is their crown jewel. There is some more work to do before taking a position.
He won't offer a buy-sell-hold verdict. BHC has done a good reorganization. There's talk of spinning out their eye division. Has a 6.5% EBITDA-to-debt ratio, so there's still some debt. They're still restructuring, so there will be little growth.
Kudos to the new executive at delevering and cleaning things up. Inexpensive valuation. Still a lot of debt. A turnaround story. 3% of your portfolio is a bit heavy. Add some diversity. Had a great move. Be cautious.
