Quipt Home Medical (QIPT.V)

(A Top Pick Sep 02/21, Down 19%) It deals in home care products, e.g. oxygen, etc. It has been growing the business by 30% over the year but the stock price is down because it is a small cap company. A different market moves them substantially higher. A recent banking deal allows for more acquisitions. It is moving from a regional player to a national one. Next year a lot of catalysts could move it higher.

It is a Canadian company operating in just the U.S. The CEO has done a good job growing the business. It screens cheaply but needs more consistent profitability.

(A Top Pick Sep 02/21, Down 30%) Health care is moving into homes so it is in a good spot. It is still making accretive acquisitions and guiding 30% higher revenue. It is in 19 states. He continues to hold the debentures.

Home healthcare business with chronically ill patients. Growing organically at 10% per year. They are also acquiring companies and just announced 2 acquisitions. Fantastic margin at 22% EBITDA. The stock trades at 6x next year's EBITDA compared to 10x for their peers. Buying more right now. Will go higher as it gets rerated. (Analysts’ price target is $12.23)

Chronic care, ventilators. Revenue growing at a fantastic rate, using a subscription model. Cheap compared to peers. Not a concern whether Medicare or Medicaid are cut. Perfect example of money rotation to small caps. Management owns a fairly good position. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $121.37)

(A Top Pick Jul 02/20, Up 72%) A US medical device company (lifts, oxyegen and other homecare products). Continues to like it, given aging demographics. The valuation is attractive. They continue to grow by acqusition, adding geographic regions and fragmented, small busineses. They have cash to buy more companies and are EBIDTA positive. Good cash flow. Expects this to get taken out one day. Price pressures are always a possibility if suppliers raise prices. Also there are reimbursement cuts in the U.S. medical system every few years, another caveat.
