This summary was created by AI, based on 1 opinions in the last 12 months.

Polaris Renewables, trading under the symbol PIF-T, has key assets primarily in Nicaragua, which has led to concerns regarding political risk associated with the investment. The trading volume of this stock is relatively low, making its price prone to fluctuations due to institutional trading movements. Experts believe that as Polaris expands its asset base into different geographic regions, this diversification could potentially drive the stock price upward. However, the timing of such developments is uncertain, meaning investors should be prepared to hold the stock primarily for its attractive dividend yield of approximately 6.4%. One expert who previously invested for the dividend has since sold their position, reflecting differing strategies among investors.

DON'T BUY

Likes the underlying business, but wants to see further diversification. Decent market cap, but liquidity profile isn't fantastic so the bid/ask spread is wide. Fairly consistent dividend over time.

TRADE

This is how he'd play the renewable energy trade. Thinks rates will go higher next year, which makes him cautious. If that's the case for rates, a lot of the bond proxies like utilities and REITs are going to come under pressure. A bit more upside potential, but for a trade.

BUY

He can't speak to fundamentals, but the chart is hitting the lower trendline. It's compressing into the right corner like a triangle, which is when you tend to get an upside move. Risk/reward is really good right now, even though it's down 9% in a really good market.

TOP PICK

A growing producer in green electricity in Latin America. They do geothermal, river and solar energy.  The green sector has been under pressure the past year, but these shares are super cheap. Pays a 6.65% dividend and trades at 13X PE. There's 70% upside. Great management, reinvesting their cash flow into a nice pipeline with occasional M&A.

(Analysts’ price target is $20.90)
TOP PICK

Now called Polaris Renewable Energy. Pays a 6.4% dividend and trades at a 15x PE, a discount to peers.

(Analysts’ price target is $25.50)
PARTIAL BUY
Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Companies like Polaris trade at high PEs (102.44x), but that’s par for the course. Another caveat is that PIF is a small-cap of only $344 million, so it can be vulnerable to market mood swings—and we’ve had no shortage of that. PIF pays a steady dividend of 5%, which investors can collect as they wait. Given PIF’s caveats, consider this stock more a risky or partial buy.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 06/21, Down 7%) Great green business. Slow, steady grower. Trades at half the valuation of other independents. Table-pounding buy. Only a matter of time before it goes up or gets bought at a serious premium.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We again reiterate PIF, a Canadian $366 million market cap infrastructure developer of renewable energy projects in Latin America, as a TOP PICK. It stumbled after last earnings report showed an unexpected loss to the company, but pandemic delays can easily account for that. The company announced it is considering expansion of the hydro project in Ecuador and is moving forward with a solar project in Panama, which will be funded entirely with cash on hand. We recommend trailing up the stop from $15.50 to $16.00, looking to achieve $30 -- upside potential over 55%. Yield 3.2% (Analysts’ price target is $30.00)

(A Top Pick Jan 25/22, Down 3.9%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with PIF is seeing improved progress. To ensure we remain disciplined to see a positive return, we recommend trailing up the stop (from $14.00) to $15.50 at this time.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 04/21, Down 26%) Frustrating. Very positive catalysts over the past year, but problem is that it's a small-cap, renewable with EM exposure. No fundamental issues, selloff is driven by market rotation and sentiment. Buying on pullbacks. Focus on long-term opportunity.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly This Canadian $366 million market cap infrastructure developer of renewable energy projects in Latin America is again reiterated as a TOP PICK. It pays a nice dividend backed by a payout ratio of 35% of cash flow. It trades at 9x earnings, compared to peers at 12x and is valued just above book value. We continue to recommend a stop loss at $14, looking to achieve $22 -- upside potential over 45%. Yield 5.1% (Analysts’ price target is $28.00)
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Sentiment on renewables has taken a nosedive. Number of projects likely to be consummated in next 3-6 months, including acquisitions. Nicaragua contract extended. Valuation steep discount to peers. Will see increased M&A activity or an increased payout ratio by jacking up dividend.
