Q: In reviewing Sunopta results this morning, they reported strong results yet the stock price has had a negative reaction. May I have your thoughts?

* Revenues of $205.6 million for Q4 2020 compared to $186.1 million in Q4 2019, an increase of 10.4%.
* Gross margin increased 360 basis points to 15.5% from 11.9% in the prior year.
* Earnings were $70.2 million or $0.78 per share in Q4 2020, compared to a loss of $7.6 million or $0.09 per share in Q4 2019. This includes earnings from continuing and discontinued operations.
* Adjusted earnings attributable to common shareholders were $1.2 million or $0.01 per diluted common share in Q4 2020, vs a loss of $5.6 million or $0.06 per diluted common share in Q4 2019. This includes earnings from continuing and discontinued operations.
Adjusted EBITDA¹ from continuing operations of $20.6 million, or 10.0% of revenues for Q4 2020, versus $11.2 million or 6.0% of revenues in Q4 2019.

Thank you

Q: I would love to buy Booking or Live Nation but I cant pay more than they were trading at a year ago. There is still too much uncertainty. Are there any names that haven't fully recovered (and then some) that look interesting to you at this point? Thanks

Q: Hello,

Just a quick follow up on a question asked on theScore. I've owned it in the past and sold chunks at various prices but I like the long term prospects and would like to re-enter at some point.

You answered that "We think $33 would be more interesting as a buy, but it is volatile and is not trading on fundamentals yet, only expectations.". J

ust wondering if you can elaborate a little on why you selected $33 as an interesting point for a buy.

Thanks very much,

Steve

Q: In your answer to Steve on BEPC vs BIP.UN differential: can you explain why these two should be thought as linked together? I get that BEPC and BEP.UN are linked as they represent the same company.
Would you agree that the growth for BEPC/BEP.UN will be muted this year (servicing debt is going to go up) and financials (US banks) would see better growth potential? Would the growth issue apply to AQN as well (for the same reason)?

Q: It appears oil prices are headed up this year but shares of companies like Exxon Mobil Corp. and Royal Dutch Shell and Suncor among others have lagged behind the oil market itself, and stock prices haven’t returned to pre-pandemic levels for a number of reasons that have nothing to do with the price of oil. Is there any other investment vehicle that would better reflect the rise in oil prices? How about OIL on the nyse?
