Automating fulfillment centres to improve margins. Equity raises caused it to tread water. Solid baseline, should trend up nicely. Demographic tailwind. Getting into medical supply distribution.
Interesting business model. Pharmacy services to LTC. Technology automates everything. Continues to add facilities, so revenue and cashflow increasing. Reasonable multiple. Trades thinly, not a lot of institutional volume. Small cap selloff. On his radar.
It was formerly Centric Health which had many businesses and a lot of debt. They paid the debt and sold businesses. Now, they're 100% focussed on Canada's #1 institutional pharmacy which distributes to seniors' homes. They're automating fulfillment centres to expand margins. Again demographics are a tailwind. Tuck-in acquisitions are coming and are integrating some now, so there are expected costs. He holds a large position. Trades at a reasonable valuation. A safe growing stock.
