Q: Hi
Is any part of the monthly distribution a return of capital? Or is it all dividend?
Does it all qualify for the Dividend Tax Credit or is it deemed Interest?
Thanks
Q: I own FRU in a TFSA and although I appreciate the high dividend associated with this stock, I now understand that the dividend is not covered by either its Earnings or Cashflows.
Q1. With the NAV of the stock significantly down over the past few years and the dividend not being covered by either the Earnings or Cashflows, should I be worried about the relative safety of the dividend?
Q2. What are your thoughts on continuing to hold FRU in a TFSA and should a holder of FRU just cut their loss and replace FRU with some other stock?
Q3. What is your best idea as a FRU replacement should I need to sell FRU and replace it with another stock or ETF in the sector?
Q: FRU has revenue from U.S. operations. Might this offer protection against tariffs? Are there Canadian companies with most of their revenue from the U.S.?
Q: I recall that a few years ago, it was said that CNR had approximately an 18% equity position in FRU. I wondered if: a) the share count of FRU had changed dramatically and, b) if CNR still has an approximately 18%. Thanks to all the 5i team and have a healthy 2025. Bill
Q: I have seen your recent comments and you believe the recent deal is good. My question is related to it's ~12% price drop in 3weeks. I have only seen positive analysis from all analysts. So my question to you is, is there any systemic or structural reason for the stock to be tanking well over the ~2% TSX reduction in the same time frame? What has changed in 3 weeks to spook investors?
I'm currently overweight Suncor, have a full position in Whitecap and less roughly 2/3 position in Freehold Royalties. I'm thinking of lightening up on Suncor and putting the dollars into a USA producers. Would you please list your top three USA domiciled oil and/or gas producers, why you prefer them, whether you would trade Suncor for any of them?
Q: Notwithstanding the capital gains tax implications, would you kindly rank the above GAS and OIL stocks in order of PREFERENCE and SECTOR (Gas stocks and Oil stocks) to continue holding for the long term and to help me decide on which stock to sell in order to raise cash for an upcoming major purchase. Thank you.
Q: I'm looking at PEY and FRU for dividend income, and possibly a little appreciation. Their recent price doesn't seem to be too effected by gas/oil prices going down -or are they perhaps offset by interest rates going down at the same time? Could you compare these; do you have a preference? How high a risk are they? What is a good entry point for both? Thanks!
Q: What do you think of FRU.ca vs NPI at these levels for a long term hold? Are there tax consequences for a royalty company I should be aware of?
I own CNQ, ENB, CPX, H and a little HSP already but I'm finding it hard to resist the dividends (and hopefully growth) of FRU and NPI. Should I add to one of the companies I already own or buy NPI or FRU as well?
Q: Good day 5i. Which of these two energy dividend companies would you prefer, PrairieSky Royalty (PSK) or Freehold Royalties (FRU). Currently the dividends are PSK 3.5% and Freehold 7.6%. Thanks.
