Investment Q&A

Q: Any comments on TOY results. Just wondering why the EBITDA margins were so low and amortization/depreciation so high and if these are expected to continue or more of a one-time.

Q: I was watching James Hodgins on Market Call last week and he mentioned that he is "restricted on the name and cant talk about it too much". What can be possible reasons for this? Thank you.

Q: ENW has been doing well, but ENW.WT has been doing much better. Two questions: what rights does a warrant give the owner? And why is the warrant doing so much better than the common stock? Thank you.

Walter

Q: Hi, I hold full positions in ATD, L, and PBH. My PBH is down about 20%, however, and I have a small position in WN as a result of the spin-off.

I need to increase my consumer defensive and am debating whether to bring WN up to a full position or average down on PBH. I know you aren't a fan of averaging down and you also aren't a fan of holding very small positions so I'm leaning toward adding to WN.

Your thoughts?

Thanks,
Robert

Q: Pls compare the numbers for these 2. Looking to buy just one.

Q: GSY just reported. It has been growing earnings at a rate of 24% per annum for the past 5 years, pays a 2.3% rising dividend and seems to have reasonably good management. Why is it not a $100 stock? No, seriously why is not a $100 stock?? I've owned it for a few years now and I'm not complaining. I've done very well with it. But I really don't get the valuation. What is the unspoken issue?
Thank you.

Q: 3:44 PM 5/8/2019
I really apreciated the TSX60 list with US revenue percent for each company. I do however have some questions. Several of the numbers were a surprise.

1. We are told that TD Bank is 50% or more American with a branch on almost every corner in many large US cities but your list shows only 26% of revenue is derived from the US. Can you confirm this number as it makes a big difference to my investing decision.

2. I see Emera has 70% of income from the US which seems a little high to me as I understood that Emera was about evenly balanced between Canada and the US.

3. Fortis with huge investments in ITC in Michigan and 6 adjacent states [the largest independent electricity transmission company in the United States], in Central Hudson Gas and Electric and in UNS in Arizona shows just 9% US income. Surely this figure is sadly out of date.

Can we trust the rest of the figures in the list?

Thank you.............. Paul K

Q: Hi 5i:
Would you please comment on the quarterly results just published? Is there anything to like, other than they say they are maintaining their outlook for 2019? Do you think TOY can regain positive momentum in the next 2 or 3 years?
