Q: Greetings.

Can I get you guys to comment on Andrew Peller and Park Lawn earnings? It looks like Park Lawn would have been a significant beat excluding the "one time" costs, and Andrew Peller fairly solid results?

Any red flags regarding earnings, and would you consider adding to a 3% position on ADW.a and a 2% position on PLC?

Thanks again. Please feel free to charge 2 question credits for the above 2 questions.

Q: Hi, can you rank the following companies as long term hold potential taking into account current valuations. I am looking to start positions in all companies I am just not sure which ones to start with.

Also, I feel like there is so much noise about moving away from oil that buying ENB long term can be a bad portfolio decision. Can you also comment on this. I am 30 and don't plan on selling anything any time soon.

Q: Hi there

Best of the holidays to you and staff in the office. I have really enjoyed being a member the last 3 years, learned a whole lot, adjusted my investing approach accordingly, and thus become a much more effective investor.

Wondering about Park Lawn. I own a part position now and am looking to increase my stake somewhat. Just wondering if you could give a breakdown on its valuation. Do you see good value there or would you wait for a lower entry point?

Much thanks
Stuart

Q: This company appears to follow the growth by acquisition model with its most recent acquisition, a US funeral home operator, having been a success based on their sales and earning improvement. It is also trading at all time highs. What is your assessment of this company and if it could be a long-term position, would you look for a lower entry point. I have no position in it at this time though regret not having bought some at $15 when I first came across it.

Q: PARK LAWN CORP have contracts with 2 companies namely Edgemark Developments and Nine To Seven Limited with both controlled by directors of Park Lawn. This seems like a conflict of interest to me since the Directors will be biased to use their companies and not shop around.
Secondly Park Lawn lends money to these 2 companies to buy PLC shares at a low interest rate payable on maturity far in the future. I think this practice is hurting share holders. Not only are they giving our money away but at the same time are diluting our shares.


I would appreciate your view on my objections.

Q: What is your opinion on Park Lawn Corp, a cemetery and funeral home operator that is growing by acquisition?

I currently hold a 2.0% weighting of this company in my portfolio. Considering that this is a small company and that I am a risk tolerant investor, does this weighting seem appropriate. In light of a recent acquisition in Michigan, I have been considering bumping it up to 3-4%.

Thanks.
