Andy Nasr Ferrovial SA FER-SM TOP PICK Jan 31, 2017

An infrastructure company and their 2 assets are the Highway 407 and Heathrow Airport. A good example of an infrastructure company that has been beat up giving a decent dividend yield and 2 great assets that give you inflation protection. Trades at a big discount to its replacement costs. Dividend yield of 4.87%. (Analysts’ price target is $20.92.)

COMMENT

With global utilities or yield plays falling, what would be a good name to buy? This one is a Spanish infrastructure group. It is utility-like in that they own part of the Highway 407 toll road, so you are almost getting an infrastructure play. This gives you a long dated asset that is earning 5%-6%, compared to where 30-year yields are in the 2% range. Thinks it is good value moving forward.

TOP PICK
A defensive real asset holding. A Spanish listed infrastructure company with a list of world-class assets. They own over 43% of the 407 ETR -- high quality, high margin business with a long life (until 2098). It trades at a premium to peers, but there is still catch up in value, he believes. Yield 2.77% (Analysts’ price target is $29.08)
TOP PICK
A 47% investor in the 407. This is an infrastructure giant from Spain. 25% stake in Heathrow. The upside to the 407 is not fully appreciated. The managed lane opportunity in the US is underappreciated. (Analysts’ price target is $30.50)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 27/19, Down 26%) One of the best old-school infrastructure companies. Great assets including a stake in the 407 -- the crown jewel in concession assets. They are divesting their more volatile assets. He still likes the long term outlook.
HOLD
A transportation and infrastructure name. It has been disappointing, especially with the shutdown heavily affecting this sector. The 407 is still the crown jewel in all of transportation infrastructure. Long term, it is still a good investment. Once COVID is under control, people will not want to take public transport. We will probably see more driving.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 10/20, Down 20%) Heathrow and 407 are its two main assets. Hit by pandemic. But these will not be permanent impairments to the business. Excellent asset to own over the long term. Compelling at current valuation.
