PARTIAL BUY
Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

EPS of $0.24 missed estimates of $0.3067 and revenues of $732.6M beat expectations of $692.38M. Revenue of $732.6M, increased from $599.2M, and income from operations rose substantially. Its Adjusted EBITDA margin shrunk from 13.8% in the prior year to 11.1% in the recent quarter. Its results were negatively impacted by declines in steel prices due to labor stoppages at auto manufacturers in the US. Management expects a recovery in steel demand and pricing, however. Its balance sheet expanded, and its free cash flow grew. This was an OK quarter, and share prices are largely unchanged. It trades at a decent valuation of 0.4X forward sales and 7.1X forward earnings and pays a dividend of 2.7%. It may hover around these prices until a recovery in steel demand and pricing returns.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

ASTL is one of Canada's largest steel producers.  It trades at 6x earnings, under book value and supports a 19% ROE.  Previously reported earnings indicated cost over runs and project delays that we feel have been fully discounted into the price.  Meanwhile plate mill modernization is moving ahead of schedule.  Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow.  We recommend a stop-loss at $8.50, looking to achieve $12.50 -- upside potential over 21%.  Yield 2.6%  

(Analysts’ price target is $12.75)

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Commodity cycle is key input for steel sector.
If economy is expanding, good time to buy steel companies.
Expecting a hard recession, so would not recommend buying.
Wait to buy when market/economy has fallen more.

WATCH

Been pressured in recent months. The market is pricing in a recession risk later this year. Wouldn't sell it now. Trades at a discount. Wait and see how things develop.

We again reiterate this Canadian based steel producer as a TOP PICK.  Trading at under book value and supporting a 66% ROE it remains good value.  The company is growing cash reserves while it aggressively retires debt.  Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 10% of cash flow.  We recommend trailing up the stop-loss (from $7.50) to $8.50, looking to achieve $13.25 -- upside potential over 21%.  Yield 2.4%.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We again reiterate this low cost producer of supplier of rolled steel to Canada and US Midwest as a TOP PICK. Recent corporate guidance disappointed the market as mill modernization did not go as per plan. However, they expect 2023 shipments to return to normal projections going forward. We like that they are back to building cash reserves, despite retiring debt. It continues to trade below book value. We continue to recommend keeping the stop loss at $7.50, looking to achieve $13.00 -- upside potential over 50%. Yield 3.0% (Analysts’ price target is $13.06)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate this low cost producer of supplier of rolled steel to Canada and US Midwest as a TOP PICK. Although recession fears are slowing demand for their product (resulting in steel prices plunging from $2000 US per ton to under $750), the fact remains the world is short raw materials. The company has bought back over a third of its shares and holds over $500 million in cash reserve according to one hedge fund holder and it trades below book value. We recommend keeping the stop loss at $7.50, looking to achieve $14.00 -- upside potential over 50%. Yield 3.0% (Analysts’ price target is $13.81)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly This low cost producer of supplier of rolled steel is a key supplier of steel to Canada and US Midwest. It recently reached an agreement with union workers for the next five years and expects capacity to be ramping back up shortly after a few operational shortfalls. It trades under book value and manages a ROE over 75%. We like how it has increased cash reserves, while retiring debt. We recommend setting a stop loss at $7.50, looking to achieve $14.50 -- upside potential over 52%. Yield 2.2% (Analysts’ price target is $14.38)

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sep 07/21, Down 23%) Merger with Legato. Steel prices have come off, so this one has languished. Incredibly cheap. Less than 3x forward earnings. 97% ROE. High quality balance sheet and business. Don't sell here, as price has more than discounted a recession.

Unspecified
With a one to two year time horizon it looks very attractive. It restructured and recently went public via SPAC which probably hurt the stock price. It is building an electric furnace which will boost output and be more efficient. It is trading at 1X which should be higher with a better economy in two years.

HOLD

Loves steel and the whole space. He owns US Steel. Looks like NUE and X are poised to make a positive transit, and to go another zone higher. Once they do that, he'd be a seller. He suspects ASTL will do the same.
