EPS of $0.08 missed expectations of $0.086 and revenues of $91.1M beat estimates of $83.64M. This is the second consecutive quarter of disappointing results, and while it trades at a reasonable valuation of 13.3X forward earnings, its high and growing debt levels are a concern. Its valuation has been lower in the past, and so there is room for multiple contraction here. Given its high debt load and long-term declining earnings, we would feel comfortable taking some gains off the table here. With debt levels creeping higher, we feel this can begin to erode its profits and cash flow.

He owns it for the yield. They do camps and rentals for construction. They raised capital recently to expand their business in construction. It is a lot less volatile than the oil business. The oil and gas industry wants to put money back to work.

Provides modular accommodation for the oil patch. With the Fort McMurray situation, demand is going to be pretty high for temporary housing. The stock had a huge pop following the fire, but underlying trends in the industry are still negative. The fire probably won’t change the needle a lot, but it will improve this year. It’ll still be negative. This is a temporary issue while Fort Mac builds. Until the underlying oil/gas situation improves, the long-term fundamentals are really not going to change. He would be a little cautious.
(A Top Pick May 25/15. Up 6.41%.) Camp providers for major LNG projects that are coming up. Holding in reasonably well given the backdrop of the energy market. Still scores in the top 5% on both momentum and valuation. Very solid balance sheet and a good 5.6% dividend yield. Trading at 7X EBITDA.

Temporary housing accommodation camp provider. Have reached a point where they are more like four-star and five-star hotels because of the labour shortage. Stock has been hitting all-time highs. Does about $120 million in EBITDA. There are about 50,000 beds in the oil sands and they’ve got about 11,000 of them. A replacement cycle is going to happen because a lot of the beds are older. Because of West Coast LNG facilities that are likely to go ahead, one facility will require about 4000 beds. If 2 or 3 of them get going, you could get about 12,000 beds. Also, in the US and gaining quite a bit of traction. Made an acquisition in Australia last year that hasn’t panned out yet and probably not going to see any positive earnings for a couple of years. 4% dividend. If she were the CEO, she’d be considering raising some cash.
