PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jul 22/22, Up 33%)

Fully intends to continue holding. Cash cow is radio communications, which continue to grow at mid-single digit rates. Transitioning from hardware to software, in particular video security cameras, which is a small part of the business growing 20%.

BUY

Good business model with cyber security demand.
Excellent business with good long term prospects.
High margins on products.
Demand for business not going anywhere.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 21/21, Down 5%) Believes demand for communication tech will remain in demand. Continues to hold stock. Long term prospects of the business are good.

DON'T BUY

Middle of the pack. Somewhat expensive. No issue with net debt. Mission critical. Trend is neutral.

TOP PICK

Radio communication segment of the business will remain strong (needed for safety applications on workplace sites). Transition to software segment of the business will continue to grow. Software will support growing interest in consumer safety throughout North America.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 21/21, Down 8.25%) Still really likes it. Military, police, first responders. They make the communications equipment you need when things get serious and have to work. Infrastructure spending should benefit them. Room for volume growth and margin expansion.

TOP PICK

They make cameras worn by police, an expanding market, among other devices. Basic technology will be more broadly used in society and MSI will benefit. (Analysts’ price target is $273.55)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 09/20, Up 10%) They handle communication networks for emergency services. They have done a good job of building an end-to-end solution. Some spending took a pause through COVID but now it seems like business momentum is starting to look better. She likes the mission-critical part of the business.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 09/20, Down 4%) Struggling recently. Mission-critical to first responders. Projects delayed. Needed infrastructure with political unrest. Business will pick up.

TOP PICK

Communication networks behind mission critical emergency response. They have expanded their addressable markets. She thinks they are very early on in this growth. (Analysts’ price target is $182.50)

DON'T BUY

The non-handset business that sells products, primarily to telephone and telecom companies. This is not a favourite space of his because it is super competitive. Customer base is not looking to spend new amounts of money.

HOLD

Splitting into 2 parts and this would unleash value but one part is going to be consolidated and he doesn’t know the details. Doing landmark sales right now but the consolidation makes him nervous.

DON'T BUY

Doesn’t like the company. They got too lazy and didn’t’ move forward. Didn’t generate enough free cash flow. In the long run they can’t grow and differentiate themselves.

DON'T BUY

Just split their 2 divisions. Has been under pressure for some time since the tech boom. Dropped the ball on the personal handset phone side. Better places to be.
