TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate FTT as a TOP PICK following recently reported record high free quarterly cash flow of $330 million.  Management commented that order backlogs are growing, while velocity of deliveries is growing.  It trades at 11x earnings, 2.1x book and supports a ROE of 20%.  We like that cash reserves are growing while debt is retired and shares bought back.  We continue to recommend a stop at $34, looking to achieve $49 -- upside potential of 19%.  Yield 2.6%

DON'T BUY
Finning Int

She'd rather own CAT, which she's been looking at. Go to the company that makes the machinery, rather than to the distributor.

PARTIAL BUY
Finning Int

Well-run with operations in western Canada, Chile and UK. CAT is looking expensive, so you consider this. FTT is safe.

Very good time to buy company. Good exposure to commodity cycle. Stock valuation very cheap. Has been buying shares recently. Strong financials with good balance sheet, and management team.

TOP PICK
Finning Int

Fundamental analysis aligned with technical analysis. Very correlated to copper prices. Builds equipment for mining companies - commodity strength good for company. Excellent technical analysis.

BUY
Finning Int

The structural backdrop includes a lot of spending on construction and on US manufacturing facilities. Much better supply/demand for energy and materials than we've had in a decade. These are all customers of FTT.

If you look at the performance of CAT, FTT and TIH over the last year, all look very attractive. TIH does more construction, whereas FTT does more materials and so he'd lean more toward that one.

BUY
Finning Int

A long-term hold. If rate cuts happen, the economy will improve. Capex spending has already improved and that is benefitting FTT.

WAIT
Finning Int

Industrials aren't too topical right now. Stock's been in a range for a couple of years, which is usually a positive sign. He'd be comfortable buying in the range, or if it spent more time above $36. Like tipping a Coke machine, sometimes it needs a couple of heaves to get it up through the price level.

PARTIAL SELL
Finning Int

50% of revenues are in western Canada, plus Chile and the UK. Higher commodity prices offer this some momentum and pushed FTT to new highs this year. But this is a cyclical name, so careful. Yesterday, CAT shares fell on shrinking demand, so that's a canary in the coalmine for FTT. Profits are decent and so is the PE. Take profits,
