Information Services (ISC-T) is currently undergoing a strategic review, leaving questions about potential buyers. Experts highlight that the company operates in a highly sticky market, which suggests a strong customer retention rate and competitive position akin to a monopoly. Although the business is appealing due to its stability, the overall growth prospects appear limited, indicating that organic expansion may not be high on the horizon. Nonetheless, the dividend yield is regarded as sustainable, providing shareholders with a reason to hold onto their investment primarily for income generation rather than for capital appreciation. Overall, the expert consensus emphasizes the strengths of the company's business model, even as uncertainties linger regarding its future ownership and growth trajectory.
Has a 20-year exclusive mandate to provide land registry and affiliated services in Saskatchewan. Very, very inexpensive. Trading at 13X on a PE basis, and has something like a 10% free cash flow to enterprise value. Also, has a very low level of debt. Dividend yield of 5.68%.
Allan MeyerBasically land registries in Saskatchewan. Very good business and very stable so dividend should be sustainable. Saskatchewan is one of the more rapidly growing provinces. To him it may be fully valued but it is one of the Steady Eddie stocks that you could buy and just put away. This will not be a sexy growth company but will provide the steady dividend and over time you get small, but gradual increases.

(A Top Pick April 25/16. Up 14.93%.) Owns a land registry in Saskatchewan, so any transaction for housing or corporate or personal goes through them. Investors are looking for businesses that have a long duration, or really long life assets. Because it is stable and pays a dividend of almost 5%, investors are willing to pay a higher price for it. There is still probably another leg up from here.
