Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I'm late to the party with TCS, CTS and SYZ. I don't own any of them and wonder if they still have "legs" or have they had their runs. Looking for other small Canadian Tech you find interesting.

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Can I please get your current opinion on Profound Medical? Do you see it as a buy, given the risk level? The recent earnings call sounded very optimistic with a deal signed to install their prostate cancer/BPH thermal ultrasound treatment in 20 Cleveland Clinics across North America. They also mentioned a code approval in the US effective January 2025. Thanks. Brad

Q: I am having trouble making sense of their shareholders letter which is supposed to explain why PLUG has had difficulties this year; there seems to have been a shortage of H2 when PLUG makes the stuff, which makes their statements gobbledegook. What is going on - can you clarify please. I thought previous commentary had identified them as prime movers in a sector in which H2 was going to play a significant role.

Q: Hi 5i,
Thanks for your very useful/helpful answer to my recent question about TSAT. Now I'd like to ask a similar question about MDA:
Could you dive into MDA's recent quarter and provide your opinion in general, and also specifically regarding whether you think anything useful is revealed about the financial aspects of the nascent Telesat/MDA/Spacex arrangement associated with MDA's contract to build LEO satellites for TSAT, and also the benefit to MDA of other irons it has in the fire (e.g. Chorus).
Thanks! Peter

Q: This company pays a nice dividend and apparently provides short term mortgage financing to corporations. It seems like a "Steady-Eddie" holder of share value since 2012. I'd like to reduce equity risk in a portion of my portfolio, not add to my money market holdings and collect the 8%. Does this equity likely achieve those goals, does the dividend seem secure, has it ever been curtailed, does it's business model carry a higher degree or lower degree of risk in your view? Many thanks for providing your thesis on this one.

Q: I would appreciate your comments regarding their earnings release and the dividend cut. The market did not like the cut in dividend, but I am wondering as to whether this might at some point be a buy. Their payout ratio seemed low for a reit, even with a very high dividend. If the eliminated dividend reduces debt, would they also be a takeover target for a larger reit/
