2013-04-03 COMMENT Peter Imhof

Lends money to people buying cars. Stock has done really well and most people really like the story. Doesn’t really follow this company. 4.7% dividend yield, which he believes is safe.

2013-04-03 HOLD Jason Donville

Stock pulled back because 1) quarter was slightly on the weak side because of a slight jump of loan-loss provisions and 2) did a financing and part of it was management selling some of their stock, which is never a good sign. Hasn’t sold his stock but he likes high ROE businesses that don’t raise additional equity. Stock still screens very well and looks very attractive. He would probably take Rifco (RFC-X) over this one right now.

2012-12-28 BUY on WEAKNESS James Hodgins

Had a huge run. Given his view on the Canadian consumer, even though the company is a fantastic operator, he has started selling his holdings. He would wait for a pullback before stepping back in.

2012-11-23 BUY Jason Donville

Becoming a good steady Eddie where it should grow in line with its earnings growth rate but its earnings growth rate is projected to be around 20%. If that’s the case, your earnings go up 20% and dividend of 4.8% with a good chance that the dividend will go up again.

2012-01-16 TOP PICK Jason Donville Car Loans. Both growth and dividends. (5.4% yield.) Payout ratio is only 35%-40%. Expect there will be a dividend hike some time between now and mid-year again, which should take the stock higher.

Been in this one since $7.16, take a look at the 6 month chart. 4.3% yield and keeps increasing the div. and pays a special div. end of the year. Well managed, experienced, has big banks backing it. Maybe a take out. Great ROE. Canadian vehicles are 11 years old on average so still lots of growth. Uses GPS system to disable vehicles if miss payment and don't heed warning. Steady Eddy.
