Dollarama Inc. (DOL-T) is facing mixed expert opinions as it navigates pressures such as high valuations and softening same-store sales growth in Canada. While analysts acknowledge DOL's strong performance and potential for international expansion, particularly in Latin America, concerns are raised about market saturation and the challenges of growing in foreign markets. Most experts note its premium valuation, highlighting it trades at high multiples, which makes it less appealing for new investors. The company is still recognized for its solid business model and resilience during economic downturns, benefiting from consumers' increasing preference for value-oriented shopping. Future growth prospects are tied to store expansions and adapting to global economic conditions, particularly the impacts of inflation and consumer spending trends.

COMMENT

Management knows exactly what they are doing in the sector, and now they are going to expand outside of Canada. You have to give them points for a really consistent execution. They have done almost nothing wrong since they re-emerged as a public company. Have completely dominated their niche and there are still opportunities. If management is going to expand, you want to ride that train with them.

HOLD

A terrific company. Well-managed. There was a Short report out of the US explaining that the company sells goods in Cdn$, but buys them with US$. However, the company explained that they hedge their currency.

BUY

It is an expensive stock. It is a great company and it is going to grow. If it goes down a little bit, buy a little more. It should continue to grow and they suspect it will outperform the market.

COMMENT

This looks expensive, so the entry point has to be lower. After its big drop in Dec-Jan, it is back to delivering good earnings, but it is about 27X PE. If you own it, it is easy to Hold, but to get in, it is difficult and you would wait for a market pullback.

TOP PICK

Their ROE is in excess of 100%, putting them at number 2 in terms of ROE. An extremely well run company. Their next earnings report will probably send them higher.

COMMENT

You can’t argue with how they have executed. A top pick today is similar to this one. They continue to build more stores and they continue to get more of each consumers spending. It has just dropped below where he would like to own it from a ranking point of view, but it is because it is expensive. If you put it away then maybe it gets acquired by a US dollar store at some point in the future.

COMMENT

This company has done well, starting off with a $1 price point, then $2, then $3 and are going to go to $4. There could be some good opportunities if you are going to Sell it here and buy it back later, but it is a very hard thing to do. Thinks they will continue to do well.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

An excellent company. As a value investor, this is relatively expensive for her. The only way to get this is to be patient and wait for a bit of a pullback. If there is a resurgence in commodity stocks, there might be a pullback in non-cyclical stocks.

BUY

He likes stocks that have gone down and tried different levels. This one did and then has shrugged it off and is now moving back up again. The stock is very, very expensive, and isn’t something for the lighthearted. He would have no problem buying this.

DON'T BUY

Another Canadian phenomenal success story. How many more dollar stores can there be? Apparently there can still be a number more. The rate of growth is definitely slowing down. They have to increase margins to increase profits and that will be hard to do.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 21/15. Up 27.36%.) Sold his holdings at the $92 level last month, because it was heading back to its highs, and he thought it was a bit of a double top. He is going to wait and see if it comes down into the low $80s before he picks it back up again. A bit expensive at 25X forward earnings and a 17% growth rate.

COMMENT

One of the best run companies in Canada. Thinks they have plenty of store growth ahead of them. Same-store sales numbers are generally pretty good. This is effectively becoming a monopoly in this space in Canada. One day a US or international player will acquire them.

COMMENT

This is a great business. Sold his holdings at around $88, which is fair valuation. Trading at 30X earnings, which is expensive.

HOLD

A great company and has done exceptionally well over the past couple of years. Trading at 27X forward earnings, which is difficult in this industry. He worries a little about the cost of goods sold if you have to bring in a lot of product from outside.

DON'T BUY

If you apply Eliot wave theory, we have a spike, peak and a failure. ABC. The consumers were leaders in the third wave advance. These will not make new highs in the fifth wave. The easy fruit has been picked. The stock will drift sideways. He would favour industrials or materials.
