Chartwell Retirement Residences (CSH.UN-T) is positioned well within the retirement residence market, benefitting from aging demographics and a lack of new supply. Most experts are bullish on the stock, highlighting its solid fundamentals, including high occupancy rates above 95%, which are expected to improve further. Analysts agree on the company's potential for growth, noting its strategy to expand through acquisitions rather than traditional equity raises, which has generated some volatility but is largely seen as a sound long-term approach. Despite its current high price-to-earnings ratio compared to peers, many believe in its strong growth narrative and ability to maintain or increase margins over the coming years, with positive trends in earnings growth projected through 2028.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 12/11 . Up 52.1%.)

DON'T BUY

Everything that can be a REIT is being one. We have an obsession with yield over common sense. You have to be careful with REITs. As a class, they look really expensive. CSH has been very well managed. He has nothing against it. Be careful with REITs. Prefers higher quality dividend plays.

COMMENT

One of his favourite REITs because demographics favour the growth of nursing homes and he feels this is one of the best run ones and you are going to have rising earnings and rising dividends. 5.16% dividend yield. He could see 5%-10% upside.

HOLD

Good performing stock. Has been volatile and more recent past has been kind. Have done a good job of repositioning and selling US assets. Always prudent to trim after a good run. Buy at sub-$10 level.

DON'T BUY

Nursing homes. Have assets in US and Canada. Just sold a big portion of their US portfolio. US retirement home numbers recently came out and they were very good. Trades at 15X price to AFFO so feels it is fully valued.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 4/11. Up 54.81%.) This one had been beaten up unnecessarily.

BUY

A leader in the seniors housing play. Yield of over 5%. Management is refocusing on Canada. They have made an acquisition to expand their presence here. Selling off non-core areas in the US. Demographics are good with people getting older and living longer. Taking advantage of the low interest-rate environment.

BUY

Long-term demographics are in its favour. Dividend is secure.

COMMENT

Feels seniors housing market is pretty well-balanced in Canada. A little bit more supply than demand in the last 2-3 years. His biggest concern with this one, up to about 6 months ago, was operational risks and execution. They struggled, which is why they have languished compared to some of their peers. Recently undertook a very sizable acquisition of retirement assets, scattered across the country. Got a US operator to help manage those assets. Upside here is a couple of bucks. Decent dividend.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 4/11. Up 40.87%.) Recently sold a big chunk of their seniors housing in the US.

TOP PICK

Seniors housing operator and manager. Likes the industry fundamentals. People are living longer. Very low penetration rate for people going into seniors housing communities so they will benefit. Not reliant on government funding. 20% of the business is long term care in Ontario. About 25% of business comes from the US but they’ve been refocusing on what markets they want to be in there and have been selling off non-core assets there.

COMMENT

Really likes this one. Growing faster at about 10% versus the REIT sector of about 8% but trades at a discount to the REITs. REIT sector trades at about 17X forward AFFO while this one trades at around 13.5. 6% dividend is well supported. Have been doing a good job of shedding their non-core US assets and re-deploying the cash into core assets..

TOP PICK

(Top Pick Jun 20/11, Up 12.05%) Occupancy is 90%. Refocused on what they were going to do in the states, selling some assets. Likes yield at 6%. Great vehicle for income and some capital growth. Beta is half the volatility of the TSX composite.

COMMENT

Largest publicly traded owner/operator of seniors housing in Canada. Have decided to consolidate into 4 core markets in the US to reduce their exposure. Recently sold a small portfolio of US assets. He would be a buyer under $9. He wants a 15% return on this one but if you are happy with a 10%-12% return you could buy these levels.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick June 20/11. Up 16.65%.) Largest Canadian in senior housing. Their facilities are assisted living independently so it is not funded by the government. High occupancy. Likes the demographics. There is very low penetration for seniors housing. They hope to increase this over time. Pulling back from the US market and refocusing on where they want to be. Increased their presence in Canada through Québec, which is good.
