Information Services (ISC-T) is currently under strategic review, generating questions about potential buyers, indicating a lack of clear interest in acquisition. Despite this uncertainty, the overall sentiment about the business is positive; it is characterized as highly sticky with a monopoly-like status, suggesting strong customer retention and competitive advantages. The company's dividend yield appears sustainable and is expected to continue, making it a viable option for income-focused investors. However, concerns about organic growth persist, as experts suggest that there may not be significant expansion potential. Therefore, while the stock might not provide high growth, its ongoing dividend offers a reason for investors to hold onto it.
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.
