Weekly 52-Week Low (or 52-Week High): BDT-T, BN-T, YES-X, SPB-T and More 52-Week Highs and Lows (Oct 09-15)

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research The restructuring brought in $40.8M, but now one investment entity owns 60% of the company. It gives the company money to survive, but it may be a while before it prospers. Of course, issuing 102 million new shares (at least, with 20 million more if…

Strong company that has been under owned lately. Recent quarterly earnings not as good as expected. Working capital and supply chain issues also concerning. Riskier name given lately results. Would not buy at this time. 

Recent addition into portfolio. Stock not as cyclical as perceived. Backlog of work projects very good. Work and revenue is guaranteed from the customers. Recent earning announcements very strong. Recent dividend increase by 50% very strong. Company growing to a size where larger investors start to invest. 

Sawmills and other building material sites in Canada and US. Building out larger US presence through acquisition. Earnings were fine, but stock dropped. Revenue far below expectations, but cashflow in line. Great job managing inventory and cash to pay dividend. Homebuilding should remain strong. He's looking to top up his position.

Pretty small, not profitable. Only a 23M market cap. Radar based technology for the mining industry. Recently certified by the aviation industry. It must prove that it can be cash flow positive.

Most recent addition to portfolio. Believes lots of opportunity in energy services. Active in well construction (cheaper & safer). Attracted to the new product line that will offer recurring revenues. Expecting a re-rate on the stock price as a result. Pristine balance sheet, good management. Expecting further share price appreciation. 

The chart has been steady despite plunges in the timber price. Impressive. But he wouldn't enter this now.

Big holding for him. He prefers the infrastructure builders to the owners. Lots of $$ being spent building infrastructure, and a bit more leverage in the earnings. Significant position in US power consulting with its latest acquisition; they'll be the largest in the US in this arena. Considered it for a Top Pick today. Technical setup…

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research EPS of 69c rose from 61c last year and beat estimates of 53c; revenue of $42.1M was marginally ahead of estimates. EBITDA fell 16% to $33.5M and was marginally below estimates. With a royalty company, the main concerns are the sustainability of the dividend, the…

Would recommend selling. Dividend rising too fast. Earnings not quality. Better options for investors. Current price presenting value to sell. Brookfield a better option. 

Has more room to run. It trades at a discount to peers. Its backlog has never grown better. They have a nuclear side to their business at Bruce Power. A lot going on and he likes it.

The preferred shares, Series E Has a rate reset spread at 330 basis points, and pays a dividend yield of 15%. Something happened to the dividend last August. Doesn't know this name well. They are selling some retail assets to add stability to the stock.

What to choose from the Brookfield stable? One of his go-to names in the Brookfield suite. If you're after growth, look at BN; the parent that owns all the entities underneath, including a big chunk of BAM. Private asset markets are still quite strong. Good for the younger folks who are looking for more torque…

Smaller cap. Income focused, with a yield around 8.5%. 50% office, 25% retail, 20% industrial. Goal is 60% industrial over 4-5 years. Issue will be having to sell assets to get there. Office space is difficult right now, both operationally and to sell. 25% discount to NAV. Pretty safe.

Management wants to buy it out but there are two conflicting groups of shareholders. The employee shareholders want the lowest price possible while the outsider shareholders want the highest price possible. This type of conflict is not good. Value it as a whole, not on the split-up of parts.

CIX vs. BAM Are very different asset managers. CI's balance sheet is not good. Prefers BAM, but shares have risen to a high valuation. Great managers and earnings stream (asset management fees).

National Bank is buying it. Price of shares of CWB has risen because of National's performance. NA is paying more than fair value for CWB. Is confident the deal will happen.

Dividend 15 Split Corp. (DFN-T) or Dividend 15 Split Corp. II (DF-T)? Both are Split shares. The preferred share is the low risk preferred share dividend. He wouldn’t buy both, because you are looking for either growth or income. He would use one or the other and build that in your portfolio.

Uses leverage. Pays lots of yield. Highly volatile. Can be risky depending on markets.

Royalty models do better in bear markets. Costs are nil, so it's a stable business. Well run. Mr. Lube over time has taken market share. Stock's pretty illiquid, make sure it's covering the dividend. Hold or buy. Yield around 8%.

Leading fleet manager throughout the globe. Continues to grow towards ~$10 billion market cap. Demand for services within growing tech companies like Amazon. Ability to operate cheaply with high margins - top decile. Built a very strong business that is growing organically. 

In general, he doesn't like split shares or different structures. Usually these "splits" are made up of common and preferred shares, and he's not a fan of preferreds. If he wants income, he'll just own stocks that pay dividends or buy an income product.Keep it simple. If you like ENB, then buy ENB.

It is a basket of common stocks including big U.S. companies. He is not sure about it but it is doing well for the caller. Income is the focus.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research We cover EQB and we have also had it in our growth model portfolio for some time now. We are quite comfortable with the name - the management team is strong, the business is expanding into new product lines, and it is overall gaining market…

Leverage allows them to provide such a large dividend. Typically 2:1 leverage, so you get double the bang for the buck. Lots of volatility, big ups and big downs. When markets are working, work great. Up to the board of the fund as to what distribution they pay out.Over 20 years, you'd have done better…

An uncommon compounder. First bought in 1998. It had a simple strategy, and was overlooked in the market. Over 26 years, has executed its strategy bigger and bigger -- buy into a new market, buy a business that fits in, build that position. Repeat. Grows at 4% per annum, and a further 15% or so…

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research The $4B withdrawal is fairly serious, though FSZ does have $166B, and it continues a trend of some assets leaving the company (including money that earlier flowed out to Pinestone following Nadim Risk's departure in 2021).

(A Top Pick Nov 13/20, Up 33%) Has started buying back shares and paying dividends. Financials should do well as the yield curve steepens. Valuation is not as compelling as before. Middle of the pack. Has moved to US banks and non-financial banks in Canada.

(A Top Pick Sep 10/24, Up 15.4%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with IGM has achieved its target at $44.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering half the position at this time and trailing up the stop (from $35.50) to $39.00.  

LBS vs. FTN An interesting structure, but they have their own at his shop. One is a play on ENB. Very optimistic about the potential for ENB to continue raising its dividend. He also has a real estate split with a mix of long-term value REITs and industrial exposure to access the e-commerce trend.

This is a seasonal period when Lifecos in general tend to do well. This is a special vehicle where they buy a lifeco, split it up and give the capital appreciation to one half, and the dividend to the other half. Dividend yield of 19% is extremely high, and he is having trouble with that.…

They turned around to regain investor confidence, but he's cautious buying it now. Is reasonably valued. Tricky. Pleased with it, but the company hasn't changed fundamentally.

If you're in a bull market, you want to own the strongest stocks you can find. He prefers "good, getting better", some kind of positive change that could add to the valuation, and where other people agree with him. He owns RY, CM, and NA; firing on all cylinders.

Only $100M market cap, but good liquidity. Doesn't think it will be at $100M for too long. Sophisticated cameras and monitoring systems for parking lots. Really high margins. Will probably grow at 75% a year, this year and next. Should be $3 in 2 years' time. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $1.72)

Has owned shares for a long term. Was a previous top pick. Will continue to own. Power division doing very well. Traditional oilfield services stock. Gas generator business very good. Expecting large growth going forward.

Broken out to new highs. Really likes the setup, great chart. Fundamental analyst on his team likes this name as well. Yield is 6.87%. (Analysts’ price target is $26.17)

The ZEO ETF recently broke out to new highs. In the group, he likes CNQ, IMO and SU.

(A Top Pick Aug 31/23, Up 42%) Excellent company with very strong assets. Skilled management team that is able to allocate capital well. Market starting to recognize value of company - expecting 20-30% upside. Dividend very safe.

Does not own shares - prefers Enbridge. However, company is overall a great business. Recent Southbow spin out has left company as a pure gas company. Very good assets - hard to replicate. 

Challenges with cartels in Mexico.Long history of development in Province.Socialist orientation of Mexican President a worry.Does not own shares at this time.Concerned about inventory & reserves.Drilling results have been fairly strong.Would prefer companies with larger reserves.

In Mongolia. Fairly illiquid. He's a fairly large shareholder. Time is on your side. Development is drifting their way. He anticipates a takeover transaction at some point.

Some of the people behind Gold Standard Ventures, are behind this one as well. If you follow success in this industry, you will do relatively well. They raised a lot of money for Gold Standard Ventures and it has done well. It is probably in the 8th-9th inning before it gets bought out. This one…

Intrigued with company and people. Does not own stock in company. Good, but not a great company to own.

Discovery in Ecuador. If anyone can put things together in Latin America, it's them. Massively high grade mine. Really good long-term hold.

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research We think MAG fits the bill. Its Mexican (safe) mine only recently went into production, and 2024 will be the first year of material revenue/cash flow for the company. The stock is acting well this year as it gets re-rated as a producer. It is…

Not to be confused with Osisko Mining, OR-T is a pure-play royalies streamer in precious metals, and minerals have been hot on the TSX so far this year. OR-T is up nearly 19% or three-fold the Toronto index's performance. As gold makes new highs almost every day, OR continues to shine. It trades just over…

In the middle of a long-term range. Yesterday's news looked very positive. Good, solid support around $38. Potential to get to $50 before it stalls out, in a 3-6 month timeframe. Get out if drops below $40.

Part of syndicate that brought company to markets. Financials in China a little opaque, but company has been generous to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. Would recommend buying. 

Expecting further gains from gold. Gold stocks have not followed run up in gold, which presents buying opportunity. Discount to net asset value, and low cash flow multiple good for margin of safety investors. Mines located in Mexico have a lot of opportunity - lots of gold to produce. Expecting to maintain ~450,000 ounces of…

It's one of his anchor stocks. It's been lagging in price, but so have many silver companies. He still likes this among Mexican-based silver producers. It has just started a gold mine in the US which helps diversify away from silver. They keep adding mines and value, and will have leverage to the prices of…

(A Top Pick Aug 20/08. Up 22.3%.) Acquired by Kinross (K-T).

Asset trackers. New iteration uses cell, not Wi-Fi. Helps cell phone companies boost revenue, as price of phone plans decreases. Before stepping in again, he's looking for a big ramp up in the trajectory of revenue and earnings.

A star in Canada due to great execution and lack of competition. Shift to multiple price points is a winning strategy. Carved out a niche in Canada.

Does not own shares in company. Leader in generic clothing. Lost cost producer, but does not believe in growth outlook. Management changes a concern. Would not recommend investing at this time.

Not interested. Cheap for a reason. De-risked balance sheet, compelling dividend, seemingly low valuation. Not in fast-growing industries. Publishing's in secular decline. Packaging has had tepid growth.

Digital logistics. Almost fully priced. Don't buy here, but look under $127-128, $131, and then $134. Wait. (Analysts’ price target is $141.50)

Has lagged the Canadian tech sector. Used to own, wouldn't be back in soon. On its recent partnership with ADBE, he tends to own the big payment systems like MA and Visa, big beneficiaries of the resurgence in the economy. 

Great business. Largest position in fund. One of the best financial stocks in Canada. Online lending business (small loans to consumers). Return on equity ~30%. Trading around 10x earnings. Expecting further growth in company. Reasonable valuation with good dividend and growth prospects.  Would recommend buying and holding. 

He follows it. Has $100 million market cap, small, based in Toronto. They re-sell Microsoft Solutions and PayiQ. They rallied during Covid, then fell back to Earth. The price target is 40 cents.

Owns a lot. Is happy with this small-cap. The recent choppiness is due to the founder selling shares, but SIS is in a good spot. They guided margins from 15% to 20% and are already almost there. They're in a demographic sweet spot. Are expanding revenues. Will raise the dividend, which is already good.

The company is into reducing carbon levels and removing sulphur from natural gas. He is a close friend to one of the company principals. An exceedingly illiquid stock.

Disappointing. Brookfield owns a lot of this, and he thinks they see a recovery coming. Shares are down because they are paying off a recent acquisition. Stay the course but watch the next few quarters.

Impressed with exploration strategy in Newfoundland and incredibly effective outreach in international public relations. Relative to the sector, ahead of itself on price.
