Q: As a longterm underwater holder could you please evaluate the quarter. Is this enough positive momentum to begin to undo the mistakes of the past? Is this a positive enough quarter to suggest they are turning the corner due to recent structural changes involving the move to in-house payment processing? Does this give you new hope for the company going forward?

Q: At what point do you get concerned about the debt on a company’s balance sheet. Are there any other ratios that you look at besides “Net Debt / EBITDA” and “Net Debt/FCF” to determine if a company’s balance sheet is stretched. What are your thresholds for these 2 ratios as well as any others that you look at?

On another related note, I don’t get why PBH has always been a favourite of yours. The last 12 months data shows net debt of $2.02B, EBITDA of $288M and FCF is $26.7M (ltm numbers) for ratios of 7.04x for net debt/ebitda and 75.7x debt/fcf. Please explain the disconnect as the numbers show the balance sheet extremely!! stretched.

Thanks

Q: Hi Team,
I've been watching Hammond since you put it the growth portfolio and to this point just watching has not been the right move. In a question prior to earnings you mentioned a price of $57 or ~$55 was a good entry point. Now at $74 it feels like I missed the boat on this one.
Should one enter now or wait? Do you think it will come back down? What would be a decent entry price today for a 3 year (minimum) hold ?
Thank you

Q: Hello, Raymond James dropped the price target of ATS to $61 from $67 ( Still a BUY ), in a preview of the quarter, yesterday. Not sure if other analysts on the street will trim estimates/target, leading to Nov 8 release of results. Is this a hint of what could be in the store ? Stock has been weak over past several weeks, perhaps, in anticipation of a soft quarter. What's your take ? Thank You

Q: Do you continue to like TVK as a long term compounder? It's had a decent pull back to $32-33 off the highs. Would this be a good entry point? Recently announced a new credit facility but other than that, not much news still earnings back in Aug. What growth drivers do you see going forward? Looking to possibly sell GDI to buy TVK. Thanks!
