Tidewater Midstream and Infrastructure Ltd (TWM.TO)

A natural gas processor. Dry gas is depleting and being replaced by liquid rich gas which requires much more processing so this company can take advantage of that. Their balance sheet has less leverage than others. The biggest risk would be competition. (Analysts’ target: $2.08).

Operates processing and transmission facilities, largely for natural gas producers. Natural gas liquids and propane are trading at reasonably good prices in Western Canada. He sees this trading at a pretty steep multiple discount to their much larger peers. Really likes management and feels they will be able to execute on their growth plans. Dividend yield of 2.7%. (Analysts’ price target is $2.08.)

A relatively new company. Sales have gone up by 56% per share when they reported on November 14. Earnings declined 35%, but upcoming earnings are expected to grow by about 8% when they report. Because this is a utility, it will be trading more on a Price to cash flow basis. Pays a dividend of 2.7%. As an income investment, this should do okay.

(A Top Pick Oct 26/16, Down 10%) It is a function of a few things. There is the whole overhang of the pipelines; ALA-T owns a significant portion and it looks like their relationship has been severed and that ALA-T may sell that piece off. This one is going to continue to grow. He thinks the management team will eventually sell to a bigger company. Longer term it will continue to grow.

It is a mid-stream company. But they are newer. Their valuation is 40% less than the peer group and they have low debt. It is Nat Gas processing. Mid-streamers are all up from 5 years ago. They came out of favour recently. (Analysts’ target: $2.15).

(Market Call Minute) His pipeline pick, even though it is off the beaten path.

This is in the midstream business. Had started off really small, and made small acquisitions. They also have organic growth. This continues to move along and grow. If you have a longer-term view, this is one you could Buy. Also has a small dividend.

Almost a mini version of Altagas (ALA-T). They have an arrangement with Altagas, where one of their facilities has been flowed down to this company. It continues to build out its infrastructure in Alberta in the Montney area and he thinks they will continue to do that. 2.5% dividend yield.

This is in the natural gas distribution business. They have some pipelines and gas plants, and do some shipping. Trades at about half the multiple of their peers. They are in a growth mode right now. The CEO had a company that he built up and sold for a nice premium, so he knows how to operate and manage a similar type of business. Dividend yield of 2.56%.

He likes them. It is somewhat under followed. He likes the management team. If you are going to own one, this is the one that stands out. It is his goto name in this space.

Has grown through acquisition and has a net cash balance sheet. They are starting to spend money integrating the assets they bought. Dividend yield of 2.9% is relatively safe because they have no debt. Their peers have moved up a lot, and this one hasn’t moved much at all. Trading at 6X EBITDA while their peers are trading at 12X, and this one’s balance sheet is better.

He really likes this company, and now is the time to Buy it. Good management team. Looking out 6 months, the stock should be a lot higher than what it is. 3% dividend yield.
