This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.

Boralex Inc. is positioned as a leader in the renewable energy sector, with a primary focus on offshore wind projects spanning France, Canada, and other regions. The company is actively engaged in several growth projects, presenting potential high returns despite associated risks. A notable advantage is that once construction is completed, ongoing input costs become negligible, enhancing operational efficiency. Current market conditions, particularly the potential improvement in interest rates, could serve as a catalyst for growth in the renewable sector, although Boralex has been identified as a laggard among peers. Nevertheless, its valuation, estimated at 9x operating cash flow, alongside a decent dividend yield, suggests an attractive investment scenario, particularly as the sector begins to show signs of recovery.

HELIOS, HLG.TO
TOP PICK

940 Megawatts of power in three countries. 3.5% yield and a reasonable payout. Earnings estimates were cranked up by 14% in the last 90 days.

BUY

Has always liked the renewable energy space, but this was the cheapest with the highest growth. What is holding the stock back right now is that there is a huge convertible debenture issue that is in the money, so there is a lot of arbitraging going on that is sort of capping it at these levels. Once that either gets repurchased or converted this fall, you could see the stock really blast off. Anything in the $13 area is a great Buy.

TOP PICK

Has great long-term contracts and a very steady cash flow. They seem to be incrementally adding 2%-4% value per year. He feels he can double his money every 10 years. Yield of 3.84%.

TOP PICK

Essentially wind electricity in France and Québec. Has great long-term contracts and is incrementally adding to its business. Yield of about 4%.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Aug 30/13, Up 28%) He took some money off the table. You should see management executing some acquisitions to increase the size of the company.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 30/13. Up 31.52%.) Had thought the company would initiate a dividend, which they did. This is a good renewable power portfolio. At this point, they are going to have to rely on acquisitions to fund additional dividend and cash flow growth, but still a pretty decent valuation.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick May 16/13, Up 12.80%) Bought because it paid no dividend and traded at a big discount, but that they could pay one if they wanted to. They finished a wind project and then started paying a dividend. Thinks they can grow the dividend significantly over the next few years. Will tread water over the next few months because of a convertible debenture maturing this fall. It presents a great buying opportunity. 4% yield.

TOP PICK

Sees it breaking out and the cash flow is so cheap on a valuation basis. Projects are kicking on well.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 16/13. Up 13.76%.) Well on track to double their EBITDA and double their power generation capacity. Phase 1 of the wind farm project in Québec is now operational. Have plenty of projects in the pipeline. Sees this going as high as $20 over the next few years. Expects they will start a dividend policy at some point because they have great cash flow and great growth potential. This is one you want to hold for the long run for the upside.

TOP PICK

Example of a small cap he can own in a small fund. Expects them to pay a dividend in the next year. Multiple should expand due to dividend potential and growth profile.

TOP PICK

Small independent power producer. Expecting to see significant upside. Operating profits are going from $100 million to $200 million by 2016 and a lot of that is funded so they won’t have to come to the market and issue equity. Thinks they will be able to initiate a dividend sometime by the end of next year, which will cause the stock to go higher and get re-rated. Looking for $12 in the next 12 months and then to go up to $13-$14.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick May 16/13, Down 5.71%) Likes the space. One of the few in the space that is not paying a dividend. Trades at a big discount to its peers. One of the highest growth profiles in the sector. Doubling capacity in next 3 years. $15 in 12-18 months, then $20 within 5 years.

TOP PICK

One of the fastest growing power producers. Likes because it's not paying a dividend, so can get in at much cheaper valuations then it's peer groups, and it's also the fastest growing. Will be doubling it's capactity in the next three years. At some point will be paying a dividend, probably in the next 12 to 24 months which will drive the stock higher. Sees it going to $20 to $25 range in a couple of years. Mostly in wind power in France, and thermal power in Canada. Have their biggest project, a wind farm in Quebec going on stream at the end of this year. This is the end of phase one which is the biggest phase, will be complete, which will probably give a dividend in the next 3 years.

DON'T BUY
A power trust, basically biomass and Hydro. Hasn't been that keen on power trusts because it has been very difficult for them to grow through acquisitions. Feedstock from Quebec sawmills for the biomass has been a lot less in the last few years because of the economy.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 26/07. Up 2%.) Has been selected by Quebec to create a wind farm near Quebec city. Sold his holdings.
