DON'T BUY

The yield is almost 9%, but he'd prefer a lower dividend with better growth. They are losing market share. Don't buy just for the yield. In fact, sell if the yield hits 10%.

DON'T BUY

He does not own this. There has been a lot of consolidation in the retail food space. The company has been withering a bit and is feeling the impact of Uber Eats. The question is if they can be re-define themselves. He hopes they don't cut the dividend. He would not buy into it.

DON'T BUY

Pays a big yield, but the stock has done poorly. Can they sustain the yield? He doesn't like restaurant stocks--we're at the top of the cycle, so people may eat out less. PZA is struggling with its market position against competitors. They need re-branding or new management as a catalyst.

DON'T BUY

He once owned it. He prefers Domino. PZA has big Alberta exposure and has had trouble getting going there. Valuation and high yield are compelling now, but he needs to see a positive catalyst to turn around their story.

COMMENT

So much of it depends on the ability of the company to manage its cash flow. As long as same store sales holds up, it looks like it is turning the corner and can do better.

HOLD

A royalty company. Low risk dividend overall. He likes it. Income names have been beaten up. Overtime it will come back.

DON'T BUY

Everybody loves pizza, but you can throw up looking at PZA's stock price. We all grew up on Pizza Pizza, but now kids can order from so many different options. The dividend is in trouble and needs to be cut. They're great marketers, but this can only go so far. They need to re-organize, maybe privatize.

DON'T BUY

He doesn’t know if this franchise matches all the other options are out there. A royalty play.

DON'T BUY

Income royalty names have suffered from interest rate hike fears. He prefers other royalty companies. He'd like to see more Pizza Pizza stores and same store growth. Pays a 9% dividend. Prefers A&W who are growing their footprint in
Canada. People will always want pizza though.

DON'T BUY

his stock is one you definitely don’t want to buy yet. It is making lower highs and lows and you have to wait for a base to form. Don’t catch a falling knife. Yield 7%

COMMENT

A royalty company which gets a 6% royalty from all the Pizza Pizza locations across Canada. A decent business model. The issue is same store sales for some locations, which were down about 1% because they increased prices. That resulted in a bit of a decline in traffic. Thinks the broader quick serve restaurants segment is going to be somewhat challenged.

COMMENT

Has done exceptionally well as a royalty and has outperformed the group. Valuation is fairly high for the growth they are getting. Doesn’t see any problem with taking some profits. He worries about the sector. These things are trading at 15X, which is a pretty rich multiple.

HOLD

A royalty Pool. A wonderful business and really well run, and pizza never goes out of style. They have a very dominant position in the market. Feels that the dividend grinds higher year-over-year.

COMMENT

(Market Call Minute.) This has paid a great dividend through the years. Dividend yield of 6%.

WATCH

Considered a consumer discretionary, but to him it borders on the consumer staples area. If it drops below its support level of around $13, something might be up. Chart shows a big head and shoulders rolling top, which is why the $13 level becomes really, really important. You bring in a lot of volume once you break down below that. If it breaks that $13 level, he would stay away.
