Q: Hi 5i Research team, I just read your recent report on Magna. What would be the impact on Magna revenues and profitability (eps), if tomorrow there were only electric cars produced worldwide? According to you, if the S&P/TSX is trading at a 17x forward eps, at what p/e multiple should Magna trade? Is Magna a stock we buy, put in a drawer and look at a few years later? On a long term basis, in which company (Magna, Linamar, Martinerea, Exco) would you be more comfortable investing in and then leaving for a deserted island for 5 years? Thank you, Eric

Q: Q 2 2016
Net revenues
Net revenues are defined as revenues less direct costs for sub-consultants and other direct expenses
that are recoverable directly from the clients. Net revenues are not an IFRS measure and do not have
a standardized definition within IFRS. Therefore, net revenues may not be comparable to similar
measures presented by other issuers. Investors are advised that net revenues should not be construed
as an alternative to revenues for the period (as determined in accordance with IFRS) as an indicator of
the Corporation’s performance.
For WSP this is a very large number 330 million $ +.. is this typical in the engineering business and is it
variable ? With 34000+ employees why do they need sub-consultants ? and overall
is WSP seriously exposed to wage inflation ?
A lot of questions here, Thank you,
Ian

Q: Interesting comments from David Baskin yesterday on why he still holds HCG. Only 8% of their portfolio is insured, so new mortgage rules should have a limited impact, and estimated earnings are $4.00 so very cheap at current price. As a longterm holder I'm considering averaging down. Appreciate your advice.

Q: Hi
I would appreciate your view on the recent Capital Power minimum reset preferred issue CPX.PR.G. It has a floor of 6% yield with upside if interest rates eventually go up. I am aware that the Alberta government is planning to retire colas assets and the compensation may fall short. My thought is the prefs would be a relatively safer way to capture yield. Your perspective is appreciated
Thank you
Steven
