Q: How do Callidus Capital's earnings look?

What do you think of management's comment "Early expressions of interest support initial valuations that would translate into a price received by tendering shareholders that is consistent with the previously disclosed valuation range provided by National Bank Financial ($18 to $22 per share) that accompanied the SIB in April 2016".

I'm thinking about initiating a position but get I also get nervous when management starts throwing out guesses as to what they think their shares are worth.

Thanks.

Q: National Bank released a research report on Callidus that gave a private buyout range of $18 to $22, one year ago. Since then revenues and earnings are up. They came out a little while ago saying the value would now be to the top end of that range. The company released a statement in February saying 17 parties were interested and any deal would likely close by the end of June. The stock trades at around $18. Isn't there excellent potential here for a 10-20% trade in just a few months? Thanks.

Q: Hi guys.

Any idea why, despite growing their earnings through 2014 and 2015, Callidus Capital's (CBL) share price has declined so dramatically in 2015?

Also, do you have an opinion why the market is giving CBL such a low multiple? Alaris Royalty (AD) is still dealing with its troubled investments and is trading at a 13.41 2017 estimated eps multiple. In contrast, CBL trades at a 2017 estimated earnings p/e of 9.77. Why has Alaris, historically, been given such a higher multiple than Callidus?

Thanks, as always.

Q: Could you comment on this morning's press release from Callidus. Is there anything material, or is it just an update that things are progressing as expected. Would you still expect a privatization to occur at $20+. The press release says that "Catalyst Capital Group...remains committed to completing a transaction on terms that will ensure the continued protection of the interests of its public shareholders."

Q: Bought this company for the dividend and some growth, also company is trying to go private thus I believe creating quite the swing in s hare price. What is your opinion of the companies valuation,safety of dividend and how to deal with the prospect of the company going private? I know the company is buying shares on the open market so do you have a feeling for how long this process might take and if one day there may be a premium offer for the balance of the outstanding shares?

There are several questions here,please charge my account accordingly.

Keep up your great service and thanks for your answers

Q: I have held this since about 13 dollars. It is now at 20 and am wondering what you think the risks are with continuing to hold (about 2 % of my portfolio)this stock. The dividend is very good and the company states that is still looking to take it private. Some believe the stock is worth around 24 dollars. Please give me your thoughts. Thanks

Q: I have a number of CBL shares and have received a must respond letter from my online brokerage. The offer is for CBL shares at $16.50 but the current price is above $18. The literature is slightly confusing in that it implies unless I tender the shares I might miss this opportunity and generally the company may become private. The tone is my shares would then be worthless. Can you comment? I really have no intention of surrendering my shares for below what the stock trades at currently. Thanks so much. Dave T.
