PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 6/05 Up 15%.) Had earnings which were not overly impressive but likes their outlook. Investing in new aircraft all the time. Balance sheet is a little bit dodgy with quite a bit of debt.

BUY

A great company. Has been forward looking into refocusing its strategy towards the Pacific rim. Now picking up contracts in far flung areas of the Pacific. There are some problems with leverage. A lot of foreign currency exposure. They have the leadership position in the industry, the best aircraft and the best safety record.

HOLD

They control a substantial part of the market share so it is hard for them to grow substantially, if not by acquisition. Last quarter was weaker than expected so the stock is down. Doesn't see much risk in the stock.

DON'T BUY

The founder died and the stock went up. This is never a good sign. Missed their earnings, with great regularity. Has sold all his holdings.

HOLD

Associated with servicing a lot of the oilrigs. There is a change in management that raises some question marks. Has been a very good company.

COMMENT

Internationally, they are probably one of the main oil service companies in providing services to remote and offshore facilities. With the drop in oil prices, business has decreased. If you are long-term holder, the stock will do well again.

DON'T BUY

Terrific company in terms of its global operations. One of the largest fleets of helicopters in the world. Operating in some very interesting geography. Market seems to be unsure of management.

BUY

An international stock. A lot of their business is related to oil. Recent numbers have shown an improvement. A well-run company and a great reputation.

HOLD

Possibly being acquired by First Reserve. There is always a little risk that they will not be able to raise the money but management of both companies are confident the deal will go through. If you own, Hold but watch and possibly sell closer to the takeover date if you are concerned.

TRADE

A takeover bid for it. Waiting for the bid to consummate. The company is being bought.
