Q: Just to clarify, David's question to you on BAD is correct! O'Connell on BNN commented on Badger's (just reported) earnings the evening of August 11th (Monday evening). Sedar and other sources including the TSX released the results this morning, Wednesday. I realize your not a regulator, nor a shareholder but how could this occur? Very disturbing for me as a shareholder but I'll still continue to hold for growth.Thanks for your great service.

Q: A comment on Badger BAD. On Market Call Tonight on Monday evening Aug 11, John O'Connell of Davis Rea responded to a question on Badger by saying "I had a quick peek at their earnings when they came out this morning...." then proceeded to say revenues were up but margins were down etc., basically describing the results that were released this morning.(The video is available on the BNN.CA web site.) What do you make of this? Is it possible Badger gave Mr. O'Connell an early look at their results?

Q: Peter and Team,

Badger Daylighting is getting smashed today following its earnings report but too me the market reaction seems way overblown. The only bad thing I can see in there is that margins decreased but it was for, what seems to me, good reason in the US and for something that seems out of the company's control in Canada.

Your thoughts on what to do with the stock from here? Forgetting the dividend, I was up about 18% or so and am now down 1% on it in a day. My tendancy is to continue to hold as I like this company and idea long term but maybe I'm too stuborn?

Q: Hi,
Looking at your Badger Rept dated May 8 2012 rated A-, now B+, due to increased valuation, no doubt.I noticed they have been diversifying into construction which is very strong due to unusually low interest rates. Since there is much talk of rising rates, do you see this as a serious risk to BAD's upside or even line them up for another haircut?

Q: Hello Peter and Staff
I own some BADger, and it is disconcerting to see it drop on a daily basis, with heavy selling volume. I am concerned that my purchase was made when growth mode changed to a Stop mode. One does wonder about underlying rumours etc. If I were to sell, it would not be pretty, if I hold, would it be reasonable to expect recovery in the short to medium term or is one looking way down the road. Thanks as always for your learned advice.

Q: Peter,
Catching up on my 5i questions and answers, I noticed that both Bill & Gord commented favourably on your dislike of target prices. It reminded me that Ross Healey was a guest on BNN last week. When asked by a caller about Badger(Bad) dropping in price, he stated it was over-priced and predicted it would drop to $18 to $20. Would you care to comment on that or is it a good example of being beware of target prices?

Q: Hi Peter and Group
How do you view the $50 million increase in credit recently obrained by Badger. I think company quarter reporting is not too far off. I am down considerably on the stock and wonder if this will be material to their quarterly report Thanks for all your good work. I have learned a lot since taking up membership, I think.

Thanks
Mike

Q: I also have a BAD question. Could you please comment on the recent organizational changes. It looks like someone internally is upset with the bottom line not reflecting the growth. Maybe the incentives are to big if they affect the financial statements that significantly. Maybe it's time to throw the shareholders a bone with a dividend increase. Mike
