Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I find myself on the fence with Savaria. I have held it a long time and consequently have had it grow from a partial position initially to full position without adding to it. With interest rates due to rise I assume it will cost SIS more to service their debt (eventually at least), and if inflation continues to run I would prefer owning a company that has demonstrated an ability to increase their dividend. In your last report, under “Valuation” you state “… we expect SIS to maintain its record of annual dividend increases”, but I note in the Report Card of that same report it gives 5 Yr Dividend Growth a C rating and what looks like a -25%? Can you please comment?
Thanks,

Q: Hi,
I just saw a question on the percentage of renewable energy sources versus hydrocarbons for a number of companies, including BEPC, NPI, AQN and FTS. You said there was no material exposure to renewables for FTS. You may be right of course but what is the definition of renewables? Is it only wind and solar, or is hydro considered a form of renewable energy? If so, FTS has plenty of hydro power sources.
Thanks for clarification.

Q: Peter,

Please provide your list of favorite utility stocks. Focus should be on debt levels able handle higher interest rates, a competitive yield and a history of regularly raising dividend payments.

Thank you

Q: Notice this is trading approximately 3% higher than its 52 week low. Pays a healthy dividend over 6%. Given the situation in the Ukraine, think now is a good time to jump in for the dividend (I am mostly interested in income) or is it possible the dividend may be cut ? If not, what would you see as an attractive entry point and do you feel the dividend should be safe longer term (and I assume you agree this situation with Russia will get fixed in the next 60-90 days).

Q: Could you provide the % age of the bottom line for these co's that is generated by renewables vs hydrocarbons?
Also if possible could you provide their strategic focus - capital investment % on renewables vs hydrocarbons?

I may have the incorrect BAM listed and I may have missed a key player in this domain.

Thank you
