Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi, Thank you for your timely commentary on the company (and the secondary offering). We bought an initial position (1.75%) today at $49.39 and $50.22. Is it fine to Top up to 3%, right now? Looks like, you like the company. Could you please be kind enough to provide some more details as to its growth trajectory, revenue model (recurring/licensing etc), competition, debt, acquisitions approach and target market etc.. Which are the closet comparable companies in Canada and US? What is insiders/institutions ownership? What will be a possible 5i rating and will you own it in the Growth portfolio today, if had cash? Too many questions, so please deduct credits as you wish. Thanks

Q: Regarding the share issue, where is this announced?
I can not find it on the web site, it seems to be a very unfriendly investor move that is not very public. I like the company alot but this is very annoying. I am still not clear about what will happen tomorrow, How many shares will be issued and how much dilution will occur.
Thanks, Peter

Q: Hi, wrt the recent earnings question on DSG, was your answer for Q4 or full year?
(Brian did not ask for which reporting period, so I will. :))

I ask as your answer seemed out of line wrt their 3Q numbers...ie Earnings per share on a diluted basis of $0.10, up 25% from $0.08 in Q3FY18 and compared to $0.11 in Q2FY19 (from their Q3 release).
You indicated EPS=.32 (that's a huge increase from .10!)

Your reply also differed quite a bit from their stated Q4 and full year earnings release of the prior year.
To clarify, can you please give earnings estimates for both Q4 and full year .

Cheers,
Steve

Q: At the present time I have a full position in Kinaxis, Constellation Software, and Shopify.
All 3 are in a non registered account. CSU and SHOP have done very well but KXS has been falling over the past year and I was wondering about selling it and buying one of the other 4 that I have listed. I am looking only at growth over the next one to two year time period. My risk tolerance is moderate to high. Which one would you suggest and why. Or would you just stay with Kinasix. Please deduct as many credits as you see fit. Thank you, Ian

Q: I was just about to buy CSU when I noticed a good report and it shot up 12%! Is it too late? I'm looking for two long term holds, minimal volatility, for a 2.5 % position each. What two do you like and why?

Q: I have CSU, KXS, CSCO, QCOM + PHO (small position) IT companies that make 10% of my portfolio. I am planning to increase the IT portion to 15-20% by adding 2-3 more IT companies. Is it OK to increase the IT portion now or wait? Which one should I add, delete or swap (both US and CAN companies)? Can you please rank the above-mentioned companies? I am looking for good companies with top management but not risky small cap companies.
