The reviews for CGI Group (GIB.A-T) reflect a consensus that the stock is currently facing challenges primarily due to slowed earnings growth and concerns about the impact of AI on the consulting sector. While there’s recognition of CGI's strong balance sheet and stable revenue from long-term contracts, many analysts express caution due to negative organic growth and the effects of external factors like the US government shutdown. Some experts suggest that despite the difficulties, the company's established market position and resilience may offer attractive entry points for long-term investors.

ACN

BUY

Can't go wrong if you invest for the long term. Harder to do installations in the Covid environment. Pickup in demand once conditions abate. Might have a few more challenged quarters. One of the best companies on a risk adjusted basis. A good one to accumulate rather than chasing high flyers.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 09/20, Down 20%) Orders have slowed down a bit. High quality name. Stock got a bit ahead of itself. What they do is mission-critical. Significant holding for her. Covid delayed projects, but they'll resume and business will improve from here.

STRONG BUY

It is an undiscovered secret in Canada as a leading consulting firm. It is the answer for the need for companies to transition. This is the leading Canadian company of its kind. He thinks they will continue to do very, very well.

TOP PICK

Is Canada's largest IT services company. They serve government and healthcare, as well as financials and retail. Very global. Increasingly, they're licensing their own intellectual property and client engagements, which have favourable long-term margins. Resistent to the pandemic. It should grow EPS this year. The kicker is GIB is a successful buyer, doing some recent tuck-ins and transformational deals. The current CEO will probably make a meaningful merger or buy to put his stamp on the company. (Analysts’ price target is $102.26)

BUY

Pretty robust pipeline. Nice earnings. Target price bumped up. Just below all-time highs and will most likely move up to the $100s or 110s. A tech name in the TSX that would make a lot of sense for people.

BUY

They just beat their Q3 based on strong 96% recurring revenues across all service lines. Its 2020 outlook is muted, but he sees good growth into 2021 as firms spend more on IT. Strong balance sheet and acquisitions are a big part of their strategy. It'll grow at 9% EPS at a decent 15x multiple into 2022. He keeps adding and it remains good at current stock prices. This continues to benefit from stay-at-home work.

BUY

She's long owned it and likes it here. CGI is lagging the tech rally. They do systems consulting and outsourcing. The outsourcing is far more recurring and managers plan to raise that 50% to over 60% in time. They enjoy a recurring revenue stream because of long-term contracts. They were impacted by COVID, because of less activity in signing new deals, but that's picking up now. They continue to buy strategic assets to expose them to certain verticals and geographies.

BUY

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks CGI is Canada's biggest IT company. It's no secret that tech has boomed during this pandemic and anything serving stay-at-home employees is enjoying a lift. CGI's services are split between outsourcing and consulting, in Canada, Europe and Asia, with a healthy dollop of cybersecurity in an age of heavy demand for online security. The balance sheet is steady and solid, enjoying strong recurring revenue streams, a free cash flow yield of 6% and a forward PE of 17x. The CGI Stock is found in lots of Canadian stock portfolios. Read Top 3 Hits & Misses for our full analysis.

BUY

Comfortable buying it at these levels. Recurring revenue stream. Trends such as working from home, cybersecurity will benefit the name. Likes it long term.

COMMENT

There's been pressure on IT budgets during the pandemic, but CGI has always been well-run. They're good at buying and integrating companies. But expect pressure in the next few years due to tighter company budgets.

PARTIAL BUY

He continues to hold it. It's grown by acquisition well and rolled out their product line effectively. CGI provides IT solutions which enjoys rising demand. Great balance sheet with lots of free cash flow. Another acquisition would help. It's worth holding, at least. Decent valuation and he likes their core business.

TOP PICK

A consulting and outsourcing business. It does not have the same scalability as a software company as its success is based on the number of workers it has. Longer term, this business has a tremendous footprint for its global markets. It plays well into cyber-security concerns. It is valued at 17 times earnings and has a free cash flow yield of 6% with strong recurring revenues. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $97.15)

TOP PICK

She has owned this for quite a while. At this price level it is a buy. Their business is split between outsourcing and consulting. This includes high recurring revenues. The lock down and pandemic has slowed some of their business. However, she thinks companies will realize the value of the services in security and outsourcing going forward. They have a sold balance sheet to fund future acquisitions. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $97.12)

COMMENT

Rather than GIB, he prefers ACN. If he wanted to expand into information services, he would add GIB.

BUY

He likes and owns this stock and would be a buyer today. It is Canada's largest IT company, offering outsourcing in Canada, Europe and Asia Pacific. Their recent earnings were better than expectations. They are running lean and benefiting from small acquisitions. They manage to grow earnings at 10% annually over 5 years and it trades at 17 times earnings. The revenue is highly visible and sticky and highly contracted.
