Information Services, symbol ISC-T, is currently under strategic review, raising questions about potential acquisitions and the attractiveness of its prospects. While there are concerns regarding who might be interested in buying the company, experts generally favor its business model, describing it as highly sticky and nearly monopolistic in nature. The dividend yield is viewed as sustainable, suggesting that it will be maintained over the long term. However, there are doubts about achieving significant organic growth, indicating that investors may need to hold the stock primarily for its dividends rather than for capital appreciation. Overall, the company holds a strong position, but the future might see some limitations in growth opportunities.
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.
