| DON'T BUY | 0.560 | Benj Gallander | Amazing how companies can lose so much money and stay in business. Teacher Pension has moved in with a lot of money twice otherwise the company would be toast. If you are looking for a long-term, relatively speculative play, this might be for you. | 2008-07-04 | |
| HOLD | 0.540 | Bill Carrigan | Has higher lows. The worst could be over. | 2008-07-03 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.510 | Werner Muehelemann | Changing power systems of rail changers. Technology has been good but weren't able to make any profits. Have been selling at a loss. Trying to restructure and now that they have a financing in place they possibly can be more successful in getting sales. Would like to see some sales ramp up. | 2008-05-28 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.710 | Werner Muehelemann | Almost went bankrupt. They are trying to get an electronic version for the rail lines. Had high debts and were burning a lot of cash. Were losing money on their first 2 projects. Recently found some financing with convertible debts from Teachers. Needs to see some contracts being signed. | 2008-01-09 | |
| HOLD | 0.300 | Peter Hodson | Loved the company 2 years ago. Had great technology, green power on locomotives. Signed a lot of contracts and then couldn't build them. Ran out of money and the Teachers Pension Fund gave them enough to survive. It will be a long time before they make any money. | 2007-12-14 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.650 | Jean-Francois Tardif | Have had a delay in orders as well as a recall. Losing a lot of money every quarter. Had to raise a lot of money just to survive. | 2007-07-16 | |
| SELL | 0.495 | Bill Carrigan | This was one that was torpedoed. Usually these don't recover. Drifted down and tried to rally and then collapsed. | 2007-05-15 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.700 | Jean-Francois Tardif | Have special energy efficient technology for locomotives. Did well on the story, but the company failed completely to deliver on any kind of expectations. | 2007-04-10 | |
| Comment | 0.850 | Hugh Cleland, CFA | Environmentally friendly locomotive. Analysts are predicting a big order flow. If it gets traction, you will have a big win on your hands. | 2007-03-26 | |
| WAIT | 0.880 | Peter Hodson | Environmentally friendly locomotive called the Green Goat. Great product. Had trouble manufacturing through outsourcing but now have it in-house. Wait to see if it turns around. Some competition. Very speculative. | 2007-03-12 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.140 | Jean-Francois Tardif | This was a successful Short for him in 2006. The company is in trouble. They don't make money. Their product might work, but they have been burning money at a pretty high rate. Doesn't think the company will survive. | 2007-01-10 | |
| HOLD | 0.600 | Hugh Cleland, CFA | Likes management and what they have achieved. Announced a cash crunch. Thinks they will come through this. If they get through this, the stock will pop significantly. | 2006-12-14 | |
| WATCH | 1.980 | Bill Carrigan | It may have a base, but don't let it make a 52 week low. Do not add to the position. | 2006-09-15 | |
| Comment | 1.650 | Hugh Cleland, CFA | A fascinating technology, but has never met all 3 of his requirements, competitive advantage, valuations and/or technical. If they can get the traction again, it could be an exciting opportunity. We'll be looking at this one now. | 2006-09-07 | |
| BUY | 3.700 | David Driscoll | Expects higher dividends. Likes it. | 2006-02-23 | |
| TOP PICK | 6.040 | Glenn Paradis, BA, CFA | An earlier stage company, but are moving into commercialization now. Very good management team. Expanding geographically as well as into more transit markets. A clean power type of energy. Expects them to make $0.30 a share in 06 and breaking even this year. Could be taken out by a larger company. | 2005-01-13 | |
| WEAK BUY | 3.980 | Michael Smedley | Competent management. OK to own in a group of small caps. | 2004-04-07 | |
