Q: Hi 5i Team - I have been reading your responses to questions on CTS Technologies and am still not sure of whether this is a stock to hold on to. You mentioned in one response that the net debt is $320 but said that it has a healthy balance sheet in another response. Is the debt a concern? Small revenue growth is expected over the next few years but strong earnings growth is expected after this year. This appears to be a contradiction but perhaps not - could you please explain. Maybe I have not read this correctly. Also it was made clear that a long time frame is needed. Would this be three to five years - or more. Thanks.
I'm looking to sell the following 12 stocks in my cash account to crystallize some losses in anticipation of better buying opportunities in the fall: BNTX, CAE, CHTR, CIEN, CJT, CTS, DIS, FNF, GNRC, HAS, TEAM, and YETI.
For each of these stocks, could you please indicate: HOLD; SELL; or SELL + RE-BUY (with suggested proxy).
Feel free to deduct as many credits as you see fit.
Q: Good day guys ..
Would u agree with Mr Jordan’s zinberg assessment for this name .. recently it has been hold in your eyes.. is it now a buy at current levels .. this guy is a donville disciple and appears to be rather sharp in picking small cap stocks.. would u follow his lead here and buy as he currently thinks it’s at maximum pessimism..
thank u

Q: Pins is gaining some momentum.You think it can continue and is it still a good takeover candidate?
Paypal had interest in Pins,or was this never the case?Could you think of any other companies that might be interested in Pins?
What about other companies like SPB and CTS?are they good takeover candidates?
Is brookfield still buying SPB and what is their position right now?
Any other companies that you might think of being take over candidates?
Q: CTS's deletion from the TSE index was announced last week. Do index funds hold a significant quantity of cts shares that they now have to sell? Would these funds already have sold in anticipation? Is deletion likely to affect cts share prices and, if so, for how long a period?
Q: are they a pretty decent company or just an ok buisness in a small country that if it was i n the states would not be your radar . thanks for your time.
Q: I really can't understand CTS's stock price.
They beat earnings with .12 with estimates at .086. EPS which you have mentioned is 9X is supposed to rise 60% in the next 2 years.
Why is this tech stock at lows and not trading like its fundamentals?
Q: Hi 5i,
CTS closed at $3.35 yesterday a couple of days after its quarterly results came out.
WELL meanwhile closed at $5.30 yesterday, the day before this morning's release of its latest quarterly results.
I own both and I'm down substantially on CTS and down somewhat on WELL. I'm feeling optimistic about the latter, not so much about the former.
I wonder if you could do a quick side-by-side QUANTITATVE comparison of the two and, based on that, advise if you think the present price discrepancy between them is justified by the underlying numbers, or if it it's based on sentiment. If the latter, what are your thoughts on a turn around in the perception of CTS, and where might it be price wise if it wasn't in the doghouse? (I wonder if yesterday's 23% gain for CTS could be meaningful ...?)
Thanks!
Peter
Q: Do you think they should institute another share buyback program. They did when shares were averaging 5 dollars. At 2.70 it seems like a 2 for 1 super sale.
Q: Q1 looked pretty good...what is your take on the dividend? Is it the best use of capital going forward or is it only meant to make up for the strategic review closing...otherwise this looks like a company I'd like to buy/hold. Curious on what you think about it? Thanks as always.
Q: Gentlemen; Earnings were out after the market closed on Tuesday. Can I have your opinion on the results. At first glance they look very good to me. The stock appears to have priced in some very bad news!
Q: Could there be some market manipulation. The price to cash flow is now at 6.5 . Its outlook is decent for the year. You would think something devastating happened like a huge lawsuit.
