(Analysts’ price target is $165.67)On a tear. It's always been expensive. Revenues have been growing, though net income's been a bit slow to follow. If it can get to a critical mass, then stock will be OK. Expect volatility. Look for big selloffs around quarterly earnings. Watch position size in your portfolio.
Dry transformers. Spending fair bit of money to ramp up production and capabilities. Strong balance sheet. Data centres are going to use a lot of power, so the story will continue. Trades ~10x EBITDA, but growing at really high teens multiples for revenue and EBITDA. Yield is 0.8%.
(Analysts’ price target is $165.00)We reiterate this producer of electric transformers as a TOP PICK. Management announced an acceleration of capital deployment, supporting the trend for growing demand for its products. We like that cash reserves are growing, while debt is reduced. It trades at 20x earnings and supports a 28% ROE. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $75) to $95, looking to achieve $146 -- upside potential of 28%. Yield 0.6%
(Analysts’ price target is $165.00)Is exposed to all the right verticals. They make transformers to optimize energy, driven by the AI boom (the need for data centres). There's still upside despite the huge rally. Business is booming, and the growth trajectory is good. Trades at 18x PE, but growth makes the future PE reasonable.

(Analysts’ price target is $162.00)Shares have taken off due to the electrification of the grid, driven by EV demand. Kudos if you own this, but he doesn't buy smallcaps. Owners own a lot of shares. Needs to research this more.
Big tech and data centres need more power, because AI consumes a lot. Hammond plays into this.
Surprisingly, this is doing well, returning 10x your investment over 2 years. HPS has benefited from the boom in energy storage and data centres. Revenues and margins have shot up, so can they sustain this? He doesn't chase stocks that have shot up.
Canadian company that produces equipment for electrical business. Demand for EV cars, and electricity in general creating strong demand for products. Outlook for business very strong. Would expect large capital gains going forward.
Are positioned well. Sadly, he missed buying this much cheaper. This still has legs. Still fairly valued now.

Exposed to the right verticals. One of the very few pure-plays in Canada. Management's been great. Stock has benefited from pickup in demand. But is it sustainable? Margins can't remain elevated forever. Power demand is real. Given the runup, be careful.
Hold, or reduce on strength. Better ways to get exposure.
