Investment Q&A

Q: I understand CSU is focused in the US market; TOI in Europe; where does this leave the focus for LMN and would they be in competition with CSU and TOI? Thank you

Q: Thanks Peter and Ryan for getting us through these difficult times. I'm looking for some future growth potential stocks with a 10+ year timeline horizon, who would be some of your picks who have the right team and vision in place for growth?

Thanks!!

Q: Guys,

I just asked and you very quickly answered the question below. But how can there be an ex-dividend date for a stock that hasn't started trading? Or did you mean CSU? Confused here.

Q: I see that CSU is down $60 per share as of 4PM on 3/1, and I also see that a listing for Lumine has popped up in my online account, though with no value attached. I know those shares are not starting to trading until around 3/24 but do I assume correctly that some or all of today's drop in CSU is related to Lumine?

Asked by Kim on March 01, 2023
5I RESEARCH ANSWER:
We would not assume this. The ex dividend date for LMN was Feb 15 and that day would have reflected the spin off.

Q: Hi

What industries and stocks would you recommend for the Current Market Condition?

Thanks.

Q: Thank you for your insightful reply on a concentrated core US portfolio. Although greater than 5% allocations in the 3 Canadian portfolios provide guidance on building a Canadian core portfolio, I would appreciate your reply focusing on some of the key differentiating criteria [such as compounders, duopoly] that you identified in your US selections. I assume CSU will be on the list, but uncertain as to he rest. As with your previous answer, please provide key rstionale and target buy prices.
Thank you

Q: Hi there,

CSU and BYD are probably the 2 best stocks over the last decade. Both have strong similarities also. If you were to pick a few stocks today that show similar promise, what would they be? Are there any future CSU and BYDs out there?

Thanks!

Q: I see CSU plans to spin out another company on a roughly 3 for 1 basis. I previously received an odd lot of TOI which I bumped up to an even 100 shares (much less than a full position for me). I'd appreciate your thoughts on how an investor (who does not need cash for the foreseeable future) might want to handle this group of companies. Is there any reason to keep them all?

Thanks in advance...

Q: Hi, The press release from Constellation Software, Today, confirmed filing of prospectus and spin-out date/payment of a special dividend-in-kind of 3.0003833 Lumine Group subordinate voting shares, for each common share of CSU held as of the record date Feb 16, 2023. Payment of dividend is expected to be on or about Feb 23, 2023. Lumine Group common shares will be listed on TSX Venture Exchange and are expected to start trading 30 days after completion of the acquisition of WideOrbit.

Based on the information available publicly as well as in the prospectus about WideOrbit and Lumine Group, with respect to their combined revenue/income and expected growth, what would be a reasonable multiple and intrinsic value of the newly listed company's shares. Also, in your view, what could be the initial trading range of the stock ?

What will be total number of o/s shares and % of new co. CSU will own after the spin out ?

Do you think, Lumine could be another growth stock to own like Topicus, another mini- Constellation Software ?

Thank You

Q: I believe insiders have been buying TOI around $70 in late December. Based on this, do you think the current $75 price is worth buying ahead of the Feb 7 Q4 earnings announcement?

Organic revenue growth seems to be down in the past year. Would there be a reason for this, and is it a cause for concern?

TOI is said to be the same size as CSU was in 2013/14. Are there some metrics that compare the valuation of TOI today to CSU then?....perhaps Price to Cashflow, or some better comparison? Or is this an apples to oranges comparison because of geographic operational differences?

Q: Peter; Any concern with CSU delaying fourth quarter results ? Thanks

Q: What do you think about L-T Buy and Holds on the above 6 stocks (ADSK, CSU, ATD, BRK.B, INMD, CNR)? Are there any that you would not buy at the present time? Purchases would be funded by new $ and selling DDOG and APPS? Would you be okay with parting with them as part of adding to the above?

Q: Which analysts cover CSU? The company website has no information on this.

Q: So I have added BN and GSY as more growth orientated stocks to my conservative ( banks, utilities, telecom, reits ) non registered account and now looking to add two of these seven names to the mix. Which look the most attractive regarding valuation, balance sheet and growth and why ? Thanks. Derek

Q: I hold CRWD (1.5%) and APPL (1.45%). My choices are: sell them both and purchase CSU; sell CRWD and buy more APPL; sell APPL and buy more CRWD. Which option would you recommend? Moderate risk; five year timeframe. Thank you.
