Extendicare Inc (EXE-T) is attracting attention for its positioning within the growing healthcare sector, particularly as it prepares to cater to an aging population in Ontario. Experts appreciate its strong chart performance and effective margin management, suggesting the company is ready to benefit from increased government funding for home healthcare providers. However, caution is advised due to the market's current exuberance and the presence of well-capitalized private equity competitors. Some analysts express concerns about the stock's current valuation, believing that much of the potential growth may already be reflected in its price. Overall, while the demographic tailwinds are favorable, there is a discernible hesitation regarding its growth prospects relative to peer companies.

COMMENT
Had a rough time recently. Good operator in what is a diversified industry. Watch out for the currency hit as well as funding from Us Medicare.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Better opportunities elsewhere.
HOLD
When you have a stock that is trading with a yield like 24%, the company has no incentive to continue to pay. Will continue pain until the end of the year but it's a pretty good bet the distribution will be cut.
WATCH
Seniors housing REIT. Payout ratio of about 95%-100% on trailing free cash flow. Some issues with Medicare and Medicaid funding, which have largely been taken care of. Watching Q3 to see if there are any losses in occupancy and margins. Distribution is safe for the rest of the year.
DON'T BUY
Given its current yield, it will probably have to cut its distribution again. Has US exposure and with the slowdown in the states, investors are worried about their nursing home properties. Has been a lot of insider buying, which is a good sign. One of the higher risk REITs because of the amount of debt.
DON'T BUY
Has had an awful 2 years. Most of their distribution is “return of capital”. New management team is in place. There are other alternatives giving better cash flow.
BUY
Long-term care facilities in Canada with skilled nurse facilities in the US. Raised capital that was very dilutive to the stock. Poor quarter with low cash flow generation. 14% free cash flow yield and the distribution is covered. Attractive at these levels but would look to unload around $11.
BUY
Convertible debenture-5 years-7.25%. Probably a good yield for a conservative investor.
DON'T BUY
Sector should be wonderful but hardly anybody makes any money. Have a lot of business in the US so he is not touching it here. Some question on what the welfare fees will be. Margins are very small.
BUY
A seniors housing REIT. Considered it as a top pick based solely on its evaluation. The payout ratio is very safe. Very large discount to its net asset value. Offers a very attractive entry point at these levels.
BUY
Nursing home area. Good safe, long-term hold. Fairly high yield. Good managers. Expect they will continue to pay their income.
BUY
Owns a small piece as a trading position as it is at a large discount to end its NAV. When it comes back, he will sell it out.
COMMENT
There may be a bit of a currency concern with respect to their operations, which has had a negative effect on the stock. Overall they have a fairly good business model. Also the question of whether they where a real estate play or just a business in disguise might have affected the stock.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Past Pick Dec 22/06. Down 16.4%.) Sold off earlier this year at a profit. Still a good name and represents tremendous value at these levels. 8.9% and distribution is safe.
BUY
Have been doing a very good job. Their long-term care facilities are providing a good base going forward and will help sustain distributions as well as acquiring other businesses.
