Q: Please comment on quarterly earnings vs expectations because the business they sold to Truist wasn’t included in the quarterly results. Did the remaining 2 businesses meet or beat expectations of analysts?
Q: Hi Peter. Your team's thoughts on Savaria - they just reported but looks like they missed the EPS expectations - explanation was inflationary pressure which looks like they are not able to pass off to customers - your thoughts on the performance and going forward...... thank you.
Q: Yesterday in response to my question on AT you said: "Our answers can and do change at times. A buy case can be made on any stock (or there would be no trading at all). But.....we also take cues from the market, aggressive selling, execution, peer performance, prices and sentiment."
In today's INK report we learn that AT director Roger Dent bought 80,000 shares at $4.94 to hold 50,000 shares. What cues do you take from this?
Q: hello 5i Research team,
When you answer that Magna be among the companies that will benefit from the increase trend toward sales of EV: can you elaborate on how and why, and also which of MG reporting segments (body exteriors & structures; power & vision; seating systems; complete vehicles) will benefit and especially how will it benefit. I cannot specifically identify a winner. My intuition says « power & vison » will probably loose from the transition out of oil (it represents about 30% of sales: which is about appropriate for an entier vehicle). Therefore if I am correct, there is no specific advantage for MG from the transition to EV. Please enlighten me. Thank you for your collaboration, Eric
Q: Peter and Co. Q2 performance looked pretty good relative to expectations. The balance sheet looks like in good shape and going forward looks positive. What is the 5i opinion and is the stock today cheap relative to intrinsic value ? Much respect for you and your team's opinion.
Q: On Nov 9 you said: We don't like stepping into such negative momentum, and would hold off for now.
On Nov 4 you said: The stock is very cheap right now, but with some disappointment and maybe year end tax selling, we think it could remain under pressure. We might do a partial position at $5.50.
Hmmm. Such conflicting advice doesn’t inspire confidence. Which is it?
I am a long term believer in the Warren Buffet approach to investing. Study a company and its business in depth and determine if it is a sound, long term investment that you hope to never sell. A business in which you can trust management to make sound decisions to grow the business. Is AT a business worth investing in for the long term or not? If it is, then should you not be advising subscribers to buy more the cheaper it gets? It has $1/share in cash and could buy the company at current prices with its own cash in about 5 years time. Am I wrong?
Q: Hello, Can I get your assessment on this company, its valuation and growth prospects. I currently hold a position and would like to add to the position, but wondering if now is a good time. Thanks
