TOP PICK

Very competitive position in all of its key markets. Very high cash flow stability. Good stability and earnings and a strong revenue growth profile. Online business grew 50% in the 2nd quarter.

COMMENT

Very well run company. Growing their business. Feels distributions are fully sustainable. Doesn't expect a lot of upside, so if you buy it would be for the yield.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

In the long-term, he feels that technology is going to take away a lot of the need for yellow pages. Distribution is secure. Their income and revenues are also secure. Would prefer to get it at $11.

TOP PICK

One of the best management teams. Adept at acquiring, integrating, taking costs out of their business and creating new business models. Supply information to Google and Yahoo. $.50 of every $1 they make flows through to shareholders. Any place below $14 is a good price.

BUY

Should have secured distributions for the foreseeable future.

DON'T BUY

Have done a good job of cutting their costs. Still have incredible margins. Feels the Yellow Pages are not used as much and prefers other internet search vehicles.

BUY

Yield is very steady. Likes what they are doing on the internet. The 7th or 8th most visited web site in Canada. Distribution keeps going up.

TOP PICK

Expanded into the classified publishing with the acquisition of Trader Medium, Auto Trader, etc. Delivering very good growth of about 30% on the internet side. Looking for 4%-5% growth overall.

BUY

Have about 90% of the Yellow Pages directory in Canada. Have been pretty innovative. Growing their online presence. Have a new product, “ Hello Yellow”, where you can call 310-YELLOW to get the name of a supplier in your area. 7.75% distribution.

TOP PICK

About 7.75% yield. Sound business model. Their print book drives their web strategy, which is a growth strategy. One of the higher-quality income funds.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 8/07. Up 6.1%.) A "free cash flow machine". For every $1 it takes in, over $.50 ends up on the bottom line and is available for increases in distribution. Growing their internet presence. One of the best Canadian management teams overall.

BUY

You've seen some softness in the market right across the board. If you are interested in income, this company is as good as it gets. Their strategy is that they will continue to maintain their 1.09 distribution and increasing their cash flow, so that by 2011, they will be able to pay the new taxes, and still maintain their 1.09 distribution. Are making efforts to grow their online business.

HOLD

Excellent management team. Moving into vertical media. Looking for strong online growth (30%). Not very cheap right now. Expects a pull back, but if you are holding it, continue to hold.

DON'T BUY

Is the most expensive of this type of business. It's out of favor. Thinks it's going to pull back further and faster.

DON'T BUY

A concern is that their growth prospects in Canada is becoming more and more limited. With the changes in technology, their stranglehold on the information markets could have other people nipping at their heels. Would be a little more comfortable if the distributions were 8%.
