Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Badger Daylighting (T.BAD) announced the acquisition of Fieldtek for $19.2M today. From the release, "The purchase price reflects a multiple of approximately four times Fieldtek's trailing 12 months normalized EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization)". This would therefore add approx $4.8M to BAD's annual earnings. Roughly speaking then, how many EPS would that add to BAD's annual EPS? Thanks.

Q: With respect to Betty's question below on CGI, I think this sell off is simply because of the increased scrutiny CGI will be facing due to the poor roll out of Obamacare?? Recent article today in the Globe about it. This story does not seem to be going away any time soon, and rightfully or wrongfully, CGI's name will be run through the mud, both for the site STILL crashing, and the huge cost of the program. Obamacare will obviously be debated heavily over the next 3 months... referances to the poor roll out will be made by everyone, and CGI will be the one tied to it. Personally? I think it's just a good opportunity for those not it, to get in, but I'm a shareholder so take that with a grain of salt. Just my 2 cents.

Q: Hi 5i Gang, I saw a commercial for a software program called "vectorvest". I was wondering if any of you have heard of it, tried it, or have any concerns with it. The commercial makes it sound way too easy, but it sounds interesting non the less. Seems a little pricey as well.

Q: Hi Peter, how does one know whether or not there are too many shares outstanding for a company? For example, in a previous question regarding Bombardier, you said that they have too many shares outstanding. How can I know that Bell, Rogers, or any other company has too many shares outstanding? Is there some sort of calculations to apply? Thanks Gervais

Q: I know you've answered a few questions here on E-T (Enterprise Group), but i was wondering if you could comment on management. Have you met with them in the past? The stock has held it quite nicely at current levels, but has lagged its peers like MCR of late who continue to climb higher. Are you still a fan of E? Do you have a sense of how the o+g service sector is shaping up for Q3 results? Thanks in advance.

Q: Hi Peter, I am just wondering if you had any more insight into EQI, given the two changes in senior management, especially Mr. Mr. Kyprianou's exit.

Would you still rate it as high? The explanation that it was a 'board' decision doesn't sit well with me. Are you comfortable with the team in place today?

Thanks, as always.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Goldcorp is in your Model Portfolio. Do you continue to believe this miner to be the best way to benefit from a recovery in Gold or is there another play with more upside? The commodity is currently very oversold. Do you think we are entering a period of strength for Gold, not just seasonly, but long-term? Would I be better off buying a pure ETF such as CGL? Or do you think it is still too early to re-enter the precious metal? Thanks!
