WAIT

Great company. Decent growth rate. Priced well. Good balance sheet. In no man's land right now. Technically, it had a great run. With all the erosion in the market, more interesting places to put capital and get immediately rewarded.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Recent earnings very strong. Management navigating supply issues well. Stock trading multiples and active share buybacks. Modelling 92% EPS growth rate. Balance sheet has a fair amount of debt.

HOLD

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. It is sensitive to broad economic growth and is likely why the shares are dragging down. Trading at 16x forward earnings and good growth is expected. Risks are most likely already priced in. Cost pressures and slowdowns are possible, but many companies, including ATA will manage through them. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Recent selloff on stock has created buying opportunity. As Covid-19 passes, business will be well positioned. Automation services will be highly valued going forward.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 12/21, Up 75%) Earnings beat by 18%. Had a big move so sold half. Trades at a higher P/E now and maybe not as much growth ahead.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Really likes management and its direction. Automation is the big theme going forward. Healthcare, auto, manufacturing, nuclear industry. Very acquisitive. Pricey, but stable, performing well even on bad days. Good addition on a pullback.

TOP PICK

A well run company that provides automation to manufacturing and focuses on regulated business spaces. Higher labour costs and supply chain issues create good tail winds for them. EVs and battery assemblies are good for them too. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $61.10)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 15/20, Up 180%) Really struggled to get lift-off in the last cycle. A fantastic growth platform. Automating manufacturing process and on-shoring is a tailwind. Has made 3-4 deals since then. Bought a life science business last week, which sells equipment. All the pieces are in place to close the valuation gap with US peers. MNA will continue to reward them. There are lots of potential acquisitions.

BUY

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Could deliver good growth although it is more in the cyclical business. Business is solid and the stock has hit more investor’s radar. 3 year + timeframe. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

TOP PICK

Grown into life sciences, consumer products, food and beverages. No shortage of companies that look to automation to cut costs. Beat recent estimates by 50%. Opportunities to make acquisitions. Quite an exciting story, that should go on for quite some time. No dividend. (Analysts’ price target is $50.30)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 03/20, Up 68%) Finally getting traction with investors. Great CEO. Building up presence in higher end pharma space. Great story, good backlog. He'd still buy it here.

BUY

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 03/20, Up 49%) Still a top-5 holding for him. This business enjoys lots of tailwinds. They went into EV's and bought an Italian company in automation processes in consumer staples and bought a company in healthcare. They've put great numbers since. Their valuation is reasonable compared to peers like Rockwell. Great CEO.
