HOLD

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. It is sensitive to broad economic growth and is likely why the shares are dragging down. Trading at 16x forward earnings and good growth is expected. Risks are most likely already priced in. Cost pressures and slowdowns are possible, but many companies, including ATA will manage through them. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

BUY on WEAKNESS

Really likes management and its direction. Automation is the big theme going forward. Healthcare, auto, manufacturing, nuclear industry. Very acquisitive. Pricey, but stable, performing well even on bad days. Good addition on a pullback.

TOP PICK

A well run company that provides automation to manufacturing and focuses on regulated business spaces. Higher labour costs and supply chain issues create good tail winds for them. EVs and battery assemblies are good for them too. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $61.10)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 15/20, Up 180%) Really struggled to get lift-off in the last cycle. A fantastic growth platform. Automating manufacturing process and on-shoring is a tailwind. Has made 3-4 deals since then. Bought a life science business last week, which sells equipment. All the pieces are in place to close the valuation gap with US peers. MNA will continue to reward them. There are lots of potential acquisitions.
