Q: Hello 5i team,
You mentioned in a previous response that you would not expect BEP to have the same high returns as in previous years. Can you briefly elaborate more on this?

Since BEP is in a dip, I wanted to purchase the US equivalent shares. Are you still comfortable with this company (you give it an A rating)?

Thank You,
Andrew

Q: Hello,

What are your thoughts on Topicus earnings? Also, is it a buy here and now?
Lastly, assuming an exchange of 1.00 to 1:48, no prefs and the same results occur over 4 quarters, are the numbers below correct?

$179.6m euros rev x 4 qs x 1.48 exchange/ 39.41m s/o = 26.98 revenue per share
$90 Price per share / 26.98 rev per share = 3.34 price to sales

$20.7m euros earnings x 4 qs x 1.48 exchange/ 39.41m s/o = 3.11 earnings per share
$90 Price per share / 3.11 earnings per share = 28.9 p/e

$91.5m fcf x 4 qs x 1.48 exchange/ 39.41m s/o = 13.74 fcf per share
$90 Price per share / 13.74 fcf per share = 6.55 price to fcf
13.75 fcf per share/ 90 price per share = 15% fcf yield

Q: Could I have your analysis for AC. I know the airline industry is losing a lot of money right now. Do you forsee them going bankrupt as they did in 2003? Or do you see their stock gradually increasing over the years?

Q: In reviewing the XBC 2020 year end financial call, a few things jumped out during the Q & A that I would like to hear you opinion on. (1) CEO Kurt Sorschak said he would be buying shares the following day at this depressed price. However I can't see any insider transactions according to Yahoo finance. Is there a lag time on that info being released or would he maybe not have followed through? (2) Someone asked them to comment on the departure of COO Prabhu Rao and there was essentially no response or additional information given, which would make me believe there is more to it. Is that a concern?
Thanks for the great service
Marc
