Q: Hi Peter and team

It is Ross again about EIF.You answered my first question this morning and I sent a second question querying your answer regarding the payout ratio. I have since been in touch with the president, Mike Pyle, who clarified some points. He appears to be using free cash flow to designate what I call cash flow and yes, they are over distributing this quarter because you have to subtract maintenance capital from the "free" cash flow.But the over distribution is only because of the strong seasonality of their results and Q1, 2013 was better than Q1 of 2012. Over the calendar year, their distributions are well below their yearly free cash flow minus yearly maintenance capital.So you may want to ignore my first question. Feel free to publish (or not) whatever you think best. Thanks

Ross

Q: Hi guys,
WEQ, Western One Equity looks to have posted another good quarter but there is no movement up in their seemingly cheap stock price. Am I missing something, or could it be because of their reliance on the commodity sectors for future revenues?

Q: FC (Firm Capital Mortgage) is down in the last two or three days on normal volume. It is normally fairly stable but occasionally has price "hiccups" e.g. Mar and Apr 2012. Is this just another one of those, or is it getting caught in an anti-mortgage downdraft?

Q: Hi Peter, Can you comment on Equity Financial's #'s. If you can shed any more light on what is a good entry level for this stock. I sense an opportunity, but there is so much 'noise'; I find it difficult to peg a value.
Thanks,
