Freehold Royalties Ltd (FRU-T) is viewed by experts as a relatively stable investment in the royalty sector, particularly due to its strong dividend yield of approximately 7-8%. Observations indicate an upward trajectory in production, particularly in the US, which may contribute positively to its income. Several analysts commend the company's solid management and geographical positioning, especially its holdings in the Permian Basin.However, there is a degree of caution regarding the long-term prospects for traditional carbon-based energy, with some experts suggesting it as primarily a trading opportunity rather than a long-term hold. The consensus is to take profits if owned for growth, while others support keeping it as a steady income play in a defensive portfolio.

COMMENT

CN (CNR-T) pension fund is a significant shareholder and may need to re-jig its ownership interest. Taxable investors will be beneficiaries as he expects it will become some form of a dividend paying security after 2011. Will be at a 15%-20% lower rate.

HOLD

(Market Call Minute)

TOP PICK

His 3 Picks are resistance to recession/depression. Thinks we will resume the bull market in oil but not triple digit before 2010 or 2011. This is a royalty company, which gets a percentage no matter what oil or gas prices are giving you downside protection. Have 16% pre-cash flow yield at $50 oil. If oil went back to its old highs, the stock price gain would be 50%.

BUY

Although a smaller trust, it is attractive. He would prefer a couple of others of the more senior producers such as Arc (AET.UN-T) or Crescent Point (CPG.UN-T).

HOLD

(Market Call Minute.) Will probably have to cut their payout. Wait until that happens before Buying.

COMMENT

Not really in the business of operating the oil wells but just earns royalties off of them. Thinks there's a good chance this will be acquired by a non-taxable entity.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) A cheap stock and people do all their drilling for them. Great opportunity.

DON'T BUY

Risk at collecting royalties.

BUY

Unique in that the majority of their cash flow comes from royalties. An oil/gas company could drill on their land and they get a royalty. Well-managed, conservative company. In 2011 they may be paying taxes in the 15% to 17% range. Distributions should be safe.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

He is picking away at trusts he likes and tries to Buy on weakness. Buying for yield. Thinks oil and gas will stabilize.

TOP PICK

Mostly own royalties from oil production in Western Canada. 10.6% yield. Only affected by the price in commodities, not any costs. Free cash flow currently is $4.75 pre-tax. With taxes, it is $3.20.

HOLD

This trust is a royalty model, which makes it a little more stable than some of the other oil/gas businesses.

BUY

Have a bit of a different model. They don't operate their assets, but get royalty payments from the production. They don't have the cost issues so much. Defensive.

BUY

These are the old freehold lands that were attached to the CN Railway. They get a royalty on companies that want to explore on their lands. Very low-cost production for them and high net back.

BUY

Have parcels of land that other companies develop at no cost to them. 12.8% yield.
