Q: Hi,
I’m wondering why TRZ is trading above the (pitiful) $5 new offer by AC. With the vote to be held on Dec15th, I assume that most shareholders will take AC shares as exchange, at a lower price of $17.47, which means a value for TRZ close to $7 now . But wouldn’t that dilute AC stock, with the risk of a sell-off afterwards- or the amount is too small to make a difference? Without the OK from Canadian and European regulators, isn’t any choice risky right now? And selling TRZ at the market a better choice today? Thanks.

Q: I have a travel credit with Air Transat. Do you think Air Canada would honour Transat credits if it takes it over?
Quite a drop in price from $18 to $5, makes one think Transat may not make it through this pandemic if the take over doesn't happen.

thanks,

Paul

Q: if we go with a thesis of recovery from Covid19 effects and benefits to beaten-down companies that deliver an 'experience' such as airlines and restaurants, would Transat be at a good entry point?
My ideas and questions:
1. Could Transat survive on it's own without a buyout or merger?
2. I can't see the government having any appetite to nationalize airlines so they either have to bail them out or let them merge. Either way Transat should benefit as long as it stays in business!
3. how much is Transat insulated from any rise in oil/fuel prices from an economic recovery? What is their hedge strategy?
4. did Transat delay the merger, did Air Canada? or did the government?

Thanks

Q: Hello Peter,
Air Canada has a take over offer at $18 per share, and assuming the regulators approve the deal, would this price still hold given Transat is trading in the $6 dollar range? If the deal is not approved by EU regulators, would Transat be a good buy at $6 per share or would Air Canada be a good buy at the current $19 dollar range? Thanks very much

Q: Hi, TRZ fell nearly to $14 last week, even if the Air Canada $18 offer has been approved (except for government). I do not think that AC could walk out of the deal or change the conditions of the offer because of the changing market or economy. The investors do not believe this will be approved ? You mentioned before a 55% probability- is this still your number? Many thanks.

Q: Your wild guess on the take over bid for Transat, and on scale of probability 100% is being certain, that the takeover will go through. If the deal doesn't go through do you think it price will go down to the $ 5 level? How this will be affected by Westjet takeover bid now being challenged by Air Canada. Do you see opportunity of buying either at current prices? Thanks
