TOP PICK

Consumer and commercial auto services such as oil changes, windshields, car washes. Quick oil changes are the great part of the business, as they're necessary but quick. Recession-proof. Will continue to open up locations and be a formidable player, currently #3. 

Other divisions have been clouding the great story of oil changes. Management will be divesting some businesses, resulting in pure-play oil changes. Heavy balance sheet, but proceeds from asset sales will help pay down debt. If successful, multiple should expand and institutional investors will be more interested. No dividend.

(Analysts’ price target is $21.92)
TOP PICK

Most important brand is Take 5, offering a quick oil change. Take 5 has limited products, so customers appreciate the lack of upselling. That scaled-down concept also means you don't need highly trained technicians, which means lower labour costs. Also owns CARSTAR collision repair and car washes in Europe. Selling assets to eventually be just Take 5.

Only 1000 stores, so more room to grow than competition. Taking market share. Recession resistant. No dividend.

(Analysts’ price target is $21.67)

The company operates 4300 auto service centers in the US and 14 other countries, and services over 50 million cars annually, generating over $1 billion in revenues each year.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly DRVN launched its IPO in mid-January and got caught in the downdraft of a Nasdaq general market retracement. The company operates 4200 auto service centers in the US and internationally and services over 9 million cars annually. As the pandemic recovery takes hold and motorists return to work, auto maintenance demand will jump. Recently reported earnings fell short of expectations, but revenues rose over 50%. The company has built its cash position to over $188 million. We would buy this with a stop loss at $15, looking to achieve $35 -- upside potential of 42%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $35.13)
