Q: I know you have mentioned that you think BRP (DOO) is a good growth stock that you like. In looking at the results they just released today, I see an normalized earnings number for the quarter of $1.82, a 62.5% increase over last year. The guidance for 2021 shows an estimated normalized earnings of $7.62 (mid point of the range), which would be a 41% increase over the 2020 number. At roughly $102, the stock is trading at a p/e of only about 13.4 times this year's estimated earnings. That looks very cheap to me for a company with that high an earnings growth rate. Just wondering what your thoughts are on the quarter, and if you agree that the stock looks very cheap comparing the p/e to the growth rate. Trading at a similar p/e to GSY, with a comparable growth rate.

Q: Hi,
Seems like since they have decided to drop the acquisition of that UK company, DND is cash flush with the financing they did not to long ago at $50.50 per share. The stock has since been trading well below that level. I was surprised when they stated an increase to their credit facility to $700 million, today. The company now has Capital of a billion dollars. I cant see any other reason for a company to be sitting on a billion dollars via financings other than if they have some massive acquisitions in the pipeline. May i get your take ? Thanks,

Q: As the price of REAL drops would you consider this factor putting the company in play for a takeover? I am thinking of starting to buy into a position now that it is low fourteens and would like to hear your thoughts. This is a profitable debt free company which nobody seems to like and is priced like it has low growth future. Generally I do not bottom feed but I am intrigued.

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor. I own a 3/4 position in Park Lawn and am considering topping up if/when it reaches my price of $28, based on my view of support levels. RBC considers PLC to be one of the best in it's coverage universe. PLC reports on March 30.

Do you think I am bottom feeding too much at $28? I'm actually happy both ways (reaching $28 or not). Should I wait until PLC reports? Your thoughts on PLC prospects?

Thanks for your help...Steve
