Recovered nicely. Good stock moving forward. Good story and long-term track record. You can buy at these levels, buy more if it goes lower.

food processing

BUY on WEAKNESS

Too late with the runup? Strong run recently. Insider buying. Consumer staples have done quite well, and tend to do well this time of year. Good company. Wait for a better opportunity, say $31.

food processing

HOLD

Good time to sell covered calls? No, don't sell covered calls right now. Went down during Covid. Strong recovery recently, and this will continue. Interesting in an era of rising rates and low growth. Safe and stable. (Analysts’ price target is $37.00)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jul 26/21, Down 13%) Headwind is the trend away from dairy. Buy when it's on sale and continue to hold. He'd buy for new clients at these levels.

food processing

DON'T BUY

He owned it 5 years ago, but return on invested capital over 10 years was above 20%, but has more recently fallen to 5-6%. SAP relies on production and the supply of milk, which they don't control the price of (makes him nervous). So, it's like a commodity play. The returns on capital are too low for him and have been declining.

food processing

BUY

Owns shares in company. Tightly held company which doesn't allow for much float. Safe and defensive name that can rise prices and dividend. Believes in the company strength and thinks share price is presenting good buying opportunity.

food processing

DON'T BUY

Company having problems with US/Canada trade wars, supply chain & inflation. Traditionally grown through M&A, so don't count on dividend increases. Complex company that is unpredictable.

food processing

HOLD

Global business. A laggard, but that's the opportunity. Earnings disappointment due to input costs. Fantastic acquirer and integrator. A very comfortable holding.

food processing

TOP PICK

Surprised it's fallen as far as it has. A recovery story, with increased activity in social settings. NA market leader in cheese and dairy. Growing international operations, which are under pressure. Expanding, tuck-in acquisitions. On sale, buying for new clients. Yield is 2.38%. (Analysts’ price target is $34.89)

food processing

WATCH

Large global footprint, but it's a tough business. Tough couple of years with Covid, shortages, and inflation. Not time to throw in the towel yet, but he's not a buyer either. Dividend is not enough to generate a good total return for shareholders. Watch what management says in next couple of quarters on dividend and acquisitions.

food processing

BUY

Owns company in TFSA. Believes company has had problems with Covid-19. Cheese portion of company is doing well, however dairy products not doing well (changing consumer preferences). As Covid-19 ends, company will recover. Is currently buying more shares of the company.

food processing

HOLD

Company has done great job in growing and expanding. Return on equity shrinking which is a red flag. Profitable company with reasonable dividend. Financial metrics (cash flow, return on equity) not high enough to justify investment.

food processing

DON'T BUY

Believes company has suffered from Covid-19 pandemic closures. Management issues and inflation also negative for company. Wait until company returns to better times before buying.

food processing

DON'T BUY

Used to be a market darling. Suffering from structurally declining profitability since 2012. ROE has gone from 21-22% to 8-9%. Valuation has been dragged down. Core problem is cheese, with slow organic growth. Making acquisitions has diluted the quality of the core legacy business. Drastically underperformed the TSX for a decade, as well as consumer staples. Not in distress, but not a compelling total return.

food processing

BUY

Covid-19 has been problematic for company as restaurant industry has been hit hard. Once things open up, margins will improve. Dairy side has been challenged as consumer demands change. Still generating free cash flows. Good price to buy and currently owns company in TFSA.
