Markets both high and flatMost Anticipated Earnings: IAG-T, BDT-T and more Canadian Companies Reporting Earnings this Week (Nov 04-08)Markets step back from highsThis summary was created by AI, based on 8 opinions in the last 12 months.
Experts have mixed opinions on Lightspeed Commerce Inc (LSPD-T). While some believe it could be a top pick due to potential buyout and focus on larger customers, others express concerns about volatility, management turnover, and competition in the payment technology space. The company's recent CEO replacement has provided some hope for stability, but there is uncertainty about its growth plan execution. Despite positive EBITDA and potential high-margin business in payment services, there are reservations about its cash flow and revenue growth. The stock has seen a bounce in recent weeks, but the outlook is still uncertain, with some experts advising to wait for more deliverables before investing.
A top pick because it could be bought out. Look at Nuvei. Is down 85% from its peak. LSPD is focusing more on larger customers. They finally broke even on cash. If a deal happens it will happen in 3-6 months, or else shares fall.
(Analysts’ price target is $24.82)If you don't own, don't buy. If you already own it, and it's in a registered portfolio, perhaps hold on (as you can't take advantage of capital losses). In a non-registered portfolio, there are better places to get more visibility for the future.
One product, the POS platform. Too volatile and uncertain. Earnings and revenues are lumpy. Better choices elsewhere, despite the low valuation. He needs more sustainability and more product offerings. Management turnover.
Payment technology business a tough place to invest in. Hard to determine who will be winner in this space. Also, a lot of competition which makes it hard to earn profits. Better options for investors in the markets.
Replaced CEO with founder, hopefully will provide some stability. 12-month price target of $22. Volatile. Favours SHOP on e-commerce.
Canadian based restaurant and retail software provider. Company not executing on growth plan. Chas flow and revenue growth not growing. New CEO coming back could be an inflection point going forward. Too early to tell on growth going forward. Watching stock, but will wait to investment( more deliverables achieved).
They've had a rough 2 years, but reported their first quarter of positive EBITDA last quarter.. Are focusing on payment services, with 25% penetration among customers. It's a high-margin business and numbers should continue to improve. He likes it.
Nice bounce over last 7-8 weeks. Bit of runway left. Very highly geared to interest rates. Buy on dips: closer to $24-25, and if you're lucky $21-21.50.
(Analysts’ price target is $31.50)Very volatile. Maybe, doesn't know. Are a smaller Shopify. A small holding for him. Would like to see consistent reporting and becoming profitable. Are in a competitive space, too. Okay as a trade, though. Buy at $17.50, then more at $17.
Nonprofitable tech is taking it on the chin. Likes it. Continues to grow revenue. Company is projecting EBITDA-positive in 18 months. Interest rate direction can significantly impact what investors are looking for in a stock.
Part of that is the size. US investors probably don't know LSPD, whereas they do know SHOP. SHOP is the 800-pound gorilla in Canada and the US for small companies that run their own website, as well as for big companies that run a website and do e-commerce.
LSPD has more of a niche in restaurants. They will be successful over time, but there have been challenges with restaurants. Over time, it should catch up to SHOP as far as percentage return goes.
It's done pretty well, though many have lowered their expectations. He targets $24. It was a history with financial reporting, so do your homework on this. Buy this around $22, then add more below $20.
Too narrow a focus for him. High valuation. Profitability is here and there. Lots of room for expansion. He likes tech companies with better recurring revenue and lower price points.
