Most Anticipated Earnings: NTR-T, ONEX-T and more Canadian Companies Reporting Earnings this Week (Feb 17-21)Trade Like an Institutional Investor and Buy or Sell These StocksThis summary was created by AI, based on 6 opinions in the last 12 months.
Morguard Corporation (MRC) has garnered mixed reviews from experts, highlighting its potential for growth yet cautioning against its low dividend and performance. The stock trades at a low valuation of 5-6 times earnings and under book value, leading some analysts to consider it undervalued. While there are suggestions of potential cash flow and asset recovery, buying interest is tempered by the tightly held shares and uncertainty around privatization prospects. Overall, the company maintains a solid asset base above $11 billion and demonstrates positive trends in cash reserves and debt management, with stops recommended at around $103 and targets ranging from $135 to $140. The sentiment appears to lean slightly toward positive, albeit with considerable caution due to broader market conditions.
Our PAST TOP PICK with MRC has triggered its stop at $115. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. When combined with our previous guidance, this will result in a net investment gain of 5%
With inflation pressures beginning to ease and interest rates plateauing, we again reiterate MRC as a TOP PICK. Management sees resiliency in commercial and multi-family properties going forward. It trades at 6x earnings, under book and the company has built cash reserves, while aggressively retiring debt. We continue to recommend a stop at $103, looking to achieve $140 -- upside potential of 17%. Yield 0.5%
(Analysts’ price target is $140.00)We again reiterate MRC as a TOP PICK. The company has been selling some non-core assets, allowing for cash reserves to grow and for debt to be aggressively retired. The company still holds assets over $11 billion. It trades at 5x earnings and under book value. We recommend maintaining a tight stop at $103, looking to achieve $135 -- upside potential of 22%. Yield 0.5%
(Analysts’ price target is $135.00)We again reiterate MRC as a TOP PICK. The company feels inflation pressures are easing, which should help stimulate job growth and support rental demand in 2024. We like that cash reserves are growing while debt is aggressively retired and shares bought back. It trades under book value and at 16x earnings. We continue to recommend a stop at $103, looking to achieve $135 -- upside potential of 23%. Yield 0.5%
(Analysts’ price target is $135.00)We reiterate MRC, a leading North American real estate management company, as a TOP PICK. As the BoC holds interest rates from further increases, and rental rates are up over 10% across the country, we expect the company to continue reporting quarterly increases in cash reserves to allow for further retirement of debt and to buy back shares. It trades at 4x forward earnings. We continue to recommend a stop loss at $95, looking to achieve $125 -- upside over 18%. Yield 0.%%.
(Analysts’ price target is $145.00)The company owns a diversified portfolio of residential and commercial property portfolio worth $19 billion. It is benefitting from growth in immigration into Canada and sees the commercial sector stabilizing going forward. It trades below book value and at 10x earnings. We recommend a stop-loss at $95, looking to achieve $150 - upside potential of 40%. Yield 0.5%

Certainly at 5X earnings MRC can be considered cheap. Shares are very tightly held with 74% held by a connected group. The dividend is fairly low and shares have not done much, so it is not our favourite, as we do prefer more growth. But we would consider it OK. There is always a chance of a privatization but not something we would count on and would not buy just on that possibility. Net asset value requires lots of estimates and can be a moving target. The last comment from the company on a conference call indicated $340/share as NAV. Note this would be pre-tax.
