This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.
Strathcona Resources (SCR) has announced a special distribution of $10.00 per share contingent upon the failure of its takeover bid for MEG, which has since been terminated. Shareholders are set to meet on November 27, 2025, to approve the plan for this distribution. The company boasts a reasonably robust balance sheet, featuring an equity position of $6.6 billion, minimal net debt, and $1.3 billion in cash, reflected in a low total debt/equity ratio of 0.2X. However, there are concerns regarding the asset quality relative to its peers, with overlapping opinions that MEG's assets may possess superior quality. Despite these challenges, the consensus leans towards likelihood of approval for the distribution, especially with support from the primary owner. Investors should remain aware that the share price is expected to decline post-distribution by a similar amount, yet holding the stock may still be favorable given its recent momentum.
Has done okay and thinks it is going to keep doing well. Loves the management team. They put their own money into the stock and they are delivering. Added a lot of users and are continuing to add users. Believes an analyst report said that 100% of their increase in incremental revenue went right to the bottom line. That is a beautiful platform to create earnings from. Thinks it has a lot of legs. Now they are getting into fantasy sports. If the ever do legalize sports betting, this company is in the sweet spot.
Have continued to add an extremely large number of new subscribers and now has a base of 10 million. A lot of people are expecting them to have an opportunity to crystallize that in the next 12-24 months. They are sports-aholics, which is why they are attracting more people. One of the top 5 websites that people go to for sports info.
He really likes the organically driven trend in the user-ship of the app. Has gone from something like 5 million to almost 10 million this year. Once it gets to 10 million, and eventually to 15 and 20 million people, the advertising base is no longer regional or secondary, you are going to have companies like Budweiser, Nike advertising. At that point, he thinks they will probably get bought. Management thinks this company can be a billion-dollar opportunity.
Loves this stock. Was a Top Pick recently. Super impressed by what they are doing. Apps is where the money is right now. People are using them more and more, and advertisers understand this. This is #2 globally after ESPN, so they have very good market share. They don’t have profits, they have revenue. Cheap stock.
Sports app. Sold the TV station a year or so ago. This is the fastest growing sports app globally. Have 5.5 million users, and is growing at about 90%. Earnings and revenues are actually going to go faster than that, because as they reach a wider base, you start getting national advertisers involved. Thinks they can get in the neighbourhood of 20 million active users over the next 2-3 years, and $20 per active user is not an outlandish valuation at all. Good chance that this is a home run.
