Magellan AerospaceMAL.TOBUYSep 29, 2014Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Aug 14, 2026. Market Open.
High insider ownership, so company is relatively undiscovered. One investor owns more than 50% of the company -- so it doesn't screen well for institutional investors. Business is booming.
Defense (~30% of its business, and he anticipates 45-50% in future) and aerospace. Good backlog. Seeing record requests for proposals, especially on defense. Huge operating leverage to get higher margins, which will increase FCF. One of the cheapest in the sector within NA. Yield is 0.83%.
The stock is cheap, and acting better. The sector (in the US, mostly) has been seeing some good numbers recently. It hit a 52-week high this week. We think it can be held, and >$10 is possible, even $12 under good conditions. $16 we think would be a stretch.

Canadian dollar revenues and US$ expenses with margin expansion and they are delevering their balance sheet. Thinks you will see better dividends, share buybacks and growth next year as well as a multiple expansion.
