Q: Hi 5i,
I've owned MDA long enough to have done well by it. Now, however, since its vulnerability to events beyond its control has twice been demonstrated I have concluded that I'll sell and take my money and run, unless there is reasonable possibility that it too will be sold to a buyer in the space biz.
Knowing what you know about MDA and the universe it operates in, can I have your opinion as to whether or not MDA is or may be an attractive takeover target?
Thanks 5i,
Peter

5i Research Answer:
With its position in the industry, we think a takeover would be tricky as the government would be very picky on who might buy it. We think the stock is fairly attractive right now. Yes, it has had some bad news. But we think when it wins its next new contract investors will be quick to support it again. The underlying industry trends remains positive.
