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

Maxim Power (MXG) has reported sales of $27.2 million, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 6.1%, which has been driven primarily by higher realized power prices. However, this growth has been partially offset by lower generation volumes. The company's net profits have remained flat when compared to the previous year, largely due to reduced net realized gains on commodity swaps. Overall, while these results can be considered satisfactory, the stock is viewed as expensive in terms of valuation. Additionally, its relatively small size and limited market coverage pose challenges in attracting new investors. The company's balance sheet appears decent, and profit margins are stable, but the overall growth prospects seem muted, leading to a cautious outlook from experts.

MXG reported sales of $27.2M, a 6.1% increase year-over-year driven by higher realized power prices, and partially offset by lower generation volumes. Net profits were largely flat year-over-year, and some of this was due to lower net realized gains on commodity swaps. These were OK results, and the stock continues to be expensive on valuation, and its small size and lack of coverage make it difficult to attract new investors. Its balance sheet is decent and margins are holding up OK, but growth is fairly muted overall, and we are not overly compelled here.

BUY

He bought it as a value play with sum of the parts worth more than it was trading at. They are trying to sell some of the parts. Thinks they will sell all the parts and distribute the cash. $4-$5 breakup value. It is taking longer than he thought to break it up.

HOLD

He bought on the basis that if it was broken up it would be worth more in parts. The results of the company are extremely good, however. They did not get the prices they were expecting so are hanging on.

TOP PICK

A deep value play. Very small power producer in Alberta. Have assets in the US and France that are for sale. Thinks the company is going to be selling different parts of itself, which it has already started. On a breakup value, he feels this is worth $5-$6 as share. Very good value at this level.

BUY
Buys power plants and operate them globally. Has a replacement value of at least $5-$6. Affected by the price of electricity in Alberta, which have been falling. Management has a significant stake in the company. Could be a takeover candidate.
DON'T BUY
Interesting in that demand for power in Alberta is exceptionally high. Have some concerns that the coal plant they run is quite old. Too pricey now.
HOLD
The chairman of First Energy (FE-N) took a major position of about 38%. Have a potential coal play bnext to one of their properties. Very thin. Very speculative.
BUY
Well run company. Long term hold.
