Q: Hi Guys
Comparing the 2 Companies, Telus is about 5 x bigger in MCAP. I was surprised to see QBR.B had about 618 million in FCF LTM, which was about the same as Telus at 622 million if my numbers are correct. Telus is about 2x as expensive on Forward P/E.
Yahoo shows Telus having next 5year growth at 17.8% per annum, verses QBR.B at only 5.15%.
Total Debt/EBITDA is actually higher at Telus from what i see at 5.2x Verses QBR.B at 4.0x
How do you view these to companies when comparing them. Is it strictly the poor future growth of QBR.B and the smaller size that makes it unattractive ?
Thanks Gord

Q: I am converting my TFSA to a dividend with some growth portfolio to reduce volatility and hopefully get more sleep. I want to start with 2 etfs to establish diversity. I like DGRC and VGG. I plan to set and forget the etfs once I reach the desired weighting. Do you think this is a good pairing of dividend growers? Can you comment on the somewhat lower average daily volumes of the etfs? Would including CDZ add value? Thank you

Q: I previously sent this question (I thought) but I may have been timed out.

I have been involved in a few spinoffs over the past few years (Constellation, BAM x 2) with some to come (Danaher, Constellation). Generally, spin-offs are seen as profitable events but I am not sure of the best way to manage the outcome.

My problem is that the spinoff usually leaves me with a small number of shares of the new company. Given that these new enterprises usually do very well (I think this is a valid generalization) I have been reluctant to sell them. I see my options as: Buy more prior to the spin off as this provides for the greatest returns and leave me with 2 reasonable sized holdings; buy more of the new company after the split to bring it to a reasonable level in my portfolio; sell the shares despite the cost and re-invest in the original company to bring that value back to its original amount; or just leave as is.

in your experience, is one option better than the other in the long term? The sticking point for me is that I expect both companies to outperform due to the split but that may be a poor assumption.

Appreciate your insight.

Paul F.
