COMMENT

WSP Global is pretty much the gold standard. They are pretty much 100% consulting, whereas STN-T and SNC-T are not. He has shied away from the whole sector. The problem is the engineering and construction business, which he has never liked. Margins are razor thin. STN-T wants to get away from E&C. He would buy WSP-T on a correction. STN-T might be a buy at some other point. SNC-T he stays way from and has done so for many years.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

It's done quite well, and she missed it. It's fully valued now, so wait for a pullback. She prefers this company in this space, because they're purely services, not construction and so not exposed to cost overruns. They've acquired to grow.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Super well managed. Only in the consulting business, so they don't take on the enormous project risks of the others. Making targeted acquisitions around the world. Great company and management. Pricey. Catch it on the dips. High on his watch list.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

A global industrial stock, since investors are shunning SNC now. But WSP is enjoying a 52-week high, so this is the wrong time to enter. This is a long-term buy, and definitely a good hold.

PARTIAL SELL

It's had a nice run since 2015. He's afraid of something that's run this high in the currrent frothy market. Sell half and take profits.

BUY

Is the PE high? He likes the company and thinks it has executed on contracts well. They will benefit if SNC-Lavalin gets banned on contracts and this has caused the stock to rally. He would buy it here and sees 10 years of good growth potential.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

This is on her radar screen. It is purely a service play, rather than construction. This allows them to avoid cost overruns on projects. She thinks this is the best in the space in Canada. She would wait for a pullback in price.

TOP PICK

The management team has a great track record. They have met all their promises to pay down debt and increase revenue with better things yet to come. Yield 2.23% (Analysts’ price target is $75.18)

COMMENT

ARE-T, WSP-T or SNC-T? He owns SNC-T, which has had its issues alongside the Canadian-Saudi Arabia situation. Fundamentally the company performs well. He owns STN-T. He was expecting this space to see better investment following the Canadian government plans to add to infrastructure. He has grown cold to the space as a whole.

COMMENT

He owns two others. Recently there has been a lot of talk about infrastructure but not an awful lot of work being done. He likes the industry long term. Short term it has more to do with what is in their portfolio of projects and he says don't buy.

BUY

Has recommended this. A great company. They've absorbed some acquisitions well. They've corrected and their outlook is good.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

He likes the company. Has owned stock of it in the past. Overvalued now trading at 12 times EBITDA. Excellent Management team at execution. He would look at it if it comes back at 10 times EBITDA.

BUY

He's playing infrastructure through WSP who are locking their debt to earnings, yet grow by acquiring. A conservative approach he likes.

DON'T BUY

This offers industrial exposure to international infrastructure. Rather than owning the asset (as Brookfield does), WSP builds it. She prefers WSP to SNC-Lavalin because its income is services related and it doesn’t have the cost-overrun risk that SNC has because of its fixed price bids. She would not buy WSP at this level because it has had a good run and is fully valued.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 28/17 - Up 36%.) Last quarter margins were up. They are still modeling 36% earnings growth. The name is getting a little pricey. He has lightened up a little bit. There are enough contracts around. There are enough governments that are spending.
