This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.

Secure Energy Services (SES-T) is a well-run company in the environmental services sector, with a focus on processing wastewater for oil and gas, mid-stream processing, and storage. The company has been experiencing some uncertainty due to orders to sell off certain sites, but analysts are waiting for clarity on those sales proceeds. Despite this, the company has very attractive EBITDA margins and recently acquired its biggest competitor. The stock's value has been affected by divestitures forced by the Competition Bureau, but the company is appealing this decision with a good chance of winning. With a low PE ratio, share buybacks, and a high yield, Secure Energy Services could be a compelling investment opportunity.

Environmental services. Processes wastewater for oil and gas, mid-stream processing and storage. Very attractive EBITDA margins of 35-40%. Just bought biggest competitor.

(Analysts’ price target is $8.73)
oil / gas
BUY
Very well run company. Does not have energy services exposure. Reservation is that more opportunity exists in energy producers. Energy companies not spending as much on energy growth and drilling.
oil / gas
PARTIAL BUY
Mostly a story on production volume rather than cap-ex spending. Free cashflow is roughly at 15%. Relatively stable. Does not own any service names, but if he were to buy into the space, this would be at the top of his list.

COMMENT
Their acquisition improved their free cashflow profile. Trading at 4.5x EV to EBITDA. We should see multiple expansion. Maybe a 30-40% upside potential, where as other small cap stocks could offer double. A challenging environment for service stocks going forward.
oil / gas
WAIT
A dividend of 5% and is only earning $0.05 per share and next year maybe up to $0.07. They are not paying out their entire cash flow. If it breaks above $5.13 it would be technically positive. He would wait on this one.
oil / gas
WEAK BUY
It recently hit all time lows. He is not terribly fond of the service space right now as spending will likely fall over 10% next year. He was shocked how low the price has recently been in a space that should not see that type of volatility. He thinks the distribution is secure although a weak earnings quarter is coming. It could be a lower beta stock in the space. Yield 5.8%

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 5/16. Up 5.41%.) *Long* (Pairs trade with a Short on Precision Drilling (PD-T). This operates in the environmental reclamation business. Environmental liabilities are something that are becoming increasingly important, particularly in Canada where they have most of their market share. He is still quite fond of this.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick July 5/16. Up 17%.) *LONG* (Pairs trade with a Short on Precision Drilling (PD-T). Took the trade off, but this is still a good company.

TOP PICK

He likes the water treatment business. It is hard to replicate. The revenues are quite stable. As you get a recovery in drilling that business will ramp up also. They are almost the only game in town. It is possible they will increase the dividend at the end of the year. (Analysts’ Target: $12.06).

oil / gas
BUY

They will benefit from more activity in the oil patch. He likes the management team. It has a good balance sheet. It is one of his favourite names and he owns a lot of it.

COMMENT

She would Buy this if you have a 1-year outlook at least. It has a great business and there is a lot of torque to increasing activity in the basin. They do a lot of waste management. With oil prices increasing, she does think that this is the point in time when things are going to start to ramp up. It offers a lot of opportunity on the server side. A great management team. They have a pristine balance sheet. She can see lots and lots of upside.

PAST TOP PICK

*LONG* (Pairs trade with a Short on Precision Drilling (PD-T). (Top Pick July 5/16, Down 2%) It is a volume based business and is in better shape now as volumes are increasing. The balance sheet is in far better shape than PD-T’s.

oil / gas
COMMENT

A very well respected services company where a lot of people have been hiding to have service exposure, given that a lot of their revenue is a lot more secure. Feels you can do a lot better in other service areas such as pressure pumpers and frac sand companies. Dividend yield of 2.7%.

oil / gas
DON'T BUY

Secure Energy Services (SES-T) or Canadian Energy Services & Technology (CEU-T)? He is not really into the service names, but of these 2, this one has a 2.5% dividend yield, while Canadian Energy cut their dividend earlier this year and is only paying about .05%. If you are looking for dividend exposure, this would be the one. Service companies are going to struggle for an extended period, particularly if oil starts to come up like he thinks it might. The balance sheet on both companies are very well positioned, but you might just have to wait on this, and right now is not the time to be buying it.
