Constellation Software Inc. (CSU) has faced significant challenges recently, particularly concerning the departure of its long-serving CEO, Mark Leonard, and increasing fears about AI's potential disruption of traditional software businesses. Many analysts believe the company's strong acquisition model and established market presence position it well for future growth, although concerns about its ability to sustain its roll-up strategy persist, especially in light of competitive pressures and market sentiment around software. The consensus from various experts suggests that while the current valuation is attractive, especially compared to historical levels, caution is advised given the potential for continued volatility and the need for the company to demonstrate sustained organic growth. Overall, despite the mixed sentiments regarding its immediate future, a substantial number of analysts remain bullish on CSU's long-term growth prospects, reflecting confidence in its business model and management team.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 29/18, Up 34%) Very difficult to analyze. They serially acquire companies that have only one family of software that addresses particular vertical need in the market. CSU says there are thousands like this and now own bunches of them. CSU knows how to buy them. Their return on invested capital is terrific. It's still an attractive stock at current prices.

BUY

Doesn't need to rely on bigger deals to keep growth up. Flexible, nimble. Can do many, many small deals. Governance and corporate strategy risk is a lot lower.

WATCH

Possible split? He doesn't think they will split the stock. This company has done an excellent job, but the valuation is just too rich. The yield is just a little too small too. There is a risk for a sizable retracement in this stock. Be careful.

BUY

He wishes he owned it. They have a roll-up strategy in software: buy companies and integrated them well. This way, they have created tons of value, but he prefers software companies are hands-on in creating product. CSU has been a great performer though.

DON'T BUY

They consolidate various software companies. They have no debt so a pretty good balance sheet. He finds it is too rich at 20 times cash flow. Also there is no centralization of services among companies acquired.

TOP PICK

They buy other software companies, around 200 now and could acquire many more. Managers own a lot of stock, and that's a great sign. They know what they're doing. (Analysts’ price target is $1223.33)

PARTIAL SELL

It has been a darling stock for a long time. The just keep consolidating. They don't squeeze out much synergies. This was not the business model he was looking for over the years. They will have to make bigger and bigger acquisitions.

BUY

They are serial acquirers with heavy cash flow. This can continue without limit. However, they have heavy competition now. So, CSU is now increasing its balance sheet. This has done incredibly well, a no-brainer.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 09/19, Up 1%) He still likes it. A strong chart and a great performer. The longer-term trend is up. It's consolidating these days. Expect choppiness then a breakout to new highs.

TOP PICK

It has been a core holding of his for a long time. They are extremely well run. They are run by a competent intelligent operator. They acquire software companies. When they are put on the world stage they shine. They are a bit expensive right now but one you should own. (Analysts’ price target is $1176.30)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 21/19, Up 3%) A beautiful chart and story. Good performer in the past month with new all-time highs. It's been on a sharp upswing since the start of 2019. Loves it.

TOP PICK

It's long been a top pick of his. It's made new all-time highs. Loves it. (Also a Past Top Pick today.) (Analysts’ price target is $1163.67)

BUY

Have to think longer term with this name. They trade at a premium valuation. This is one of the best performers in Canada. Strong management team. They have a strict focus on shareholder value. They paid a special dividend last quarter.

DON'T BUY

They have done well over a long time period. He thinks it may be over valued right now. Without a sizable dividend, he is staying away. With a marketcap of $23 billion, they need to take on bigger and bigger ventures.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 21/18, Up 26%) We saw a choppy consolidation. Then it broke to all time highs. He loaded up even more in late December.
