Q: ARX is approaching all time highs and yet TOU seems to have no upward momentum at all. I have been hearing for the last few years that TOU is a premium gas stock and the new LNG plant would offer a big boost to the company. With the LNG plant nearing completion I was expecting TOU to start a move upwards. What is happening? Which of ARX & TOU will benefit the most from LNG Canada?

Q: Good morning,

On May 5th the company announced that it has agreed to a takeover by Sunoco. The terms of the deal is cash and .295 shares of the new entity Suncorp.

My questions are two fold.

1. Is this new company, the old company renamed, or is this a spin off of the old company?

2. Assuming the deal goes through on June 24, how does the $44.00 price for each Parkland share work out, if the value of Suncorp is lower than the price of SUN at the time of the agreement?

3. That being said, do you expect the share price to rise to the value of the offer made, as the date of the vote nears?

4. Would you sell PKI if it gets to $44 or keep the shares of the new company?

Q: I currently have received my WCP shares in my brokerage account for the takeover of my VRN shares but I read as part of the takeover VRN would pay 1/3 of its quarterly dividend to shareholders for the April month. I can’t find what date this dividend will be paid to VRN shareholders. Can you please advise?

Thanks in advance.

Q: Good morning,

Q1. What are your thoughts on Strathacona Resources recent offer to purchase MEG?

Q2. Do you consider Strathacona's initial offer reasonable and what is the likelihood of MEG accepting Strathacona's initial offer?

Q3. What is the likelihood of another company joining the bid for MEG?

Q4. For holders of MEG, do you recommend selling on the news now and taking profits or waiting for a potentially better offer as MEG considers the current offer that may not be accepted and cause the MEG's stock price to drop back?

Thank you and I'll await your response.

Francesco

Q: Hi 5i,

I just watched CTV Vassy Kapelos's interview of Carney, and I highly suggest people search it out. It looks like our energy industry is doomed for another 4 years. Would you venture back into Canadian O&G after watching this? BTW this interview brings up Carney's views on climate from his "Values" book, not good.

Thx

Q: Currently I have an overweight position in energy, with full positions in CNQ, SU, TOU, ENB and half positions in TRP and WCP. Does it make sense to sell TRP at this time and take a full position in PPL? Does it make sense to hold both CNQ and SU or is there a significant correlation between the two, if so, which would you keep?

Q: You indicated in your answer to Warren's question that you feel the suggested buyout price for MEG Energy by Strathcona is too low. What do you think would be a reasonable offer, and what do you think MEG management would hold out for? Which companies might make an offer? Do you think the company will in fact be sold?

Q: NPI recently announced the commencement of the new Oneida battery storage Project (ahead of schedule and under budget). They also have two wind projects under way, in Poland and Taiwan. I believe. I am having trouble estimating the value of each of these projects. Can you tell me the expected revenues, free cash flow, and EPS of each project and when the wind projects are expected to come on stream?

Q: What is the difference between owing a bitcoin company like COIN or a bitcoin ETF? Which is riskier and which would you prefer?

Q: The recent NPI quarter looks pretty weak, decreased revenues from last year. I’m thinking to take a loss and possibly add to other positions, or would you recommend to repurchase after the 30 days? I read the March report, but I see better opportunities in other names. The growth story for 2025 is only the Oneida Energy Storage Project completion? How much will this add to revenues? I’m also concerned the allure around renewables and the climate change narrative is crumbling, especially after the Europe outages. Any thoughts on this?

My add to names I’m considering are PPL, CPX, PEY, WCP. How would you rank those for growth, stability, current and future yield?
