PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 2/09. No change.) Always seems to be overlooked in the engineering sector. Have diversified out of US land holdings and into environmental engineering. Expects low to mid-$30's.
TOP PICK
(Top Pick Sep 02/09, Down 8.3%) We are seeing a lot of volatility in engineering stocks. They depend a lot on ability of governments to spend money. If we fear another recession, then there may not be a lot of capital to do projects. But they are diversified into buildings and land. Still likes it. Diversified engineering company that does not take on a lot of construction risk, like a lot of its competitors. Broadened foot print in environmental engineering area. Over the next couple of years you will see more significant organic growth as well.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 2/09. Down 11%.) A lot of stimulus spending for road construction/bridges didn’t happen as expected. Making acquisitions in the environmental engineering area, which will be their future. Very well positioned North American engineering company without any of the construction risks.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 2/09. Down 14%.) Infrastructure play. Came off lately because people are worried about the state and municipal finances. Have diversified away from land development projects and are more involved in environmental engineering. Not involved with construction risks. Still a buy.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 2/09. Down 2.3%.) If a robust turnaround in infrastructure starts, this will have the potential of getting up to $30-$35 range. Long-term hold.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Mar 23/09, Up 25.23%)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 2/09. Up 5.4%.) Engineering diversified in North American. Don't have construction risks. Involved in urban land development, buildings, roads and highways but also very much expanded into environmental practice. Excellent infrastructure play. Good price.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Dec 19/08, Up 9.7%) Over the next few years it has great prospects. SNC always looks extremely expensive. There are pockets in SNC that are overvalued. (Y)
TOP PICK
North American infrastructure company. Do the engineering work, not the construction work. Hurt last year because of their large exposure to land development, particularly in California, which has been dramatically reduced now. Have expanded their environmental engineering footprint. Well priced.
HOLD
Likes infrastructure. Well managed. Now a lot of infrastructure companies and he expects a lot of M & A activity in the sector. 3rd on his favourites list as it has some exposure to the US residential market. Long track record of adding value. Good Buy and Hold but he prefers others.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Mar 23/09 Up 21.57%) Still likes and holds it.
TOP PICK
A lot of consulting and engineering projects in North America but they don't take on construction risks. Have diversified away from urban land development and are much more into environmental engineering. Well placed across North America to participate in any infrastructure build out.
TOP PICK
Engineering. Has backed off recently and may drop a little more. Have more work orders than they have workers. Good infrastructure play.
BUY
Thinks the stock could start moving above the $30 level. Earnings are coming out on Nov 5 and estimates have been slowly moving up. Longer-term infrastructure is a good place to be.
TOP PICK
Good infrastructure play. Likes that they are a North American play. Do a lot of engineering but don't take on construction risks. Stock was held back because they have a lot of business in the urban land development, particularly in the southern US. Into architecture, bridges, transportation and other engineering projects.
