Clarke Inc. (CKI-T) has experienced significant stock price growth recently, largely attributed to the company's decision to renew its Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB), allowing for the buyback of up to 5% of outstanding shares over the next year. However, experts express concerns about the stock's valuation, citing a high trailing earnings ratio of 44.2x, which suggests it may be overpriced relative to its earnings. The company's financial health is also under scrutiny, with a considerable amount of debt amounting to $137.8 million in net debt. The irregularity in quarterly results adds a layer of complexity in analyzing long-term trends, leading to skepticism regarding steady growth. Additionally, with a market cap of $327 million and ownership concentration—two shareholders owning 88%—investors are urged to consider alternative investment options, especially for those seeking small-cap investments within a Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA).

(A Top Pick April 25/16. Up 16.15%.) A small investment management firm. Historically they have done very well in investing in both public and private oil companies, and buying and selling assets. They delivered a special $2 dividend to shareholders in June. He is a little less bullish on this now. Trading at a slight discount to Book, but not as much as before. Feels there are more interesting alternatives now.
They did a good job Management owns a big chunk and they have a lot of cash. They had a lot of buybacks over the last year.

The stock has really jumped over the last month and the most recent news we see is relating to CKI renewing its NCIB (share buyback plan). CKI plans to buyback 5% of outstanding shares over the next year. Results vary significantly period-to-period making it harder to anlyze and give a clear answer if we are seeing a long-term trend of fundementals improving. The balance sheet has quite a bit of debt at $137.8M in net debt. On a trailing earnings basis, CKI is very expensive at 44.2x. While the recent performance has been strong, we do not like the lumpiness in results and the size risk at $327M in market cap. We think investors could look elsewhere for a small cap TFSA investment. It is essentially a holding company and two shareholders own 88% of the company. With no dividend, we would prefer to see secular growth and better liquidity.
