2013-04-25 PAST TOP PICK Paul Harris, CFA

(Top Pick Apr 17/12, Up 11.28%)  Tightly held and owns Brick now.  It’s a cheap stock at these levels.  Nice yield.  They own a lot of the properties they sit on.  They know how to run the furniture business.

2013-04-01 TOP PICK Paul Gardner, CFA

Bought the over levered Brick that was in the penalty box.  LNF had no debt.  Earnings are going to increase.  The big concern in the market is Canadian housing, but he thinks it is all about employment, which is increasing in Canada.  He would not expect it to go down as much in a correction.

2013-03-28 TOP PICK Paul Harris, CFA

Just acquired Brick Furniture at the right time. It had no debt but has a little now. Not covered by the street very much but it continues to grow. Family owned and they are concerned about shareholder value. Own a lot of their properties that their businesses sit on. Calculated BV was $5-$8 and the stock is around $12, so you still have a very good opportunity for them to do very well over the next little while. Nice yield.

2013-02-28 TOP PICK Paul Harris, CFA

3.5% yield – they just bought The Brick.  Own a lot of the properties under their stores.  It is a great opportunity with The Brick purchase.  It gives them a lot of assets in Western Canada.

Their acquisition of The Brick was great, as they bought their major competitor.  Pristine balance sheet.  The Brick will double earnings.  Only covered by BMO.

2012-04-17 TOP PICK Paul Harris, CFA Great Canadian brand. No debt. 3.3% yield. Own a lot of the real estate their stores are on and this is almost the value of their market cap. Makes sense to buy it here. Their family has done a great job of running it and may pay a special dividend soon. Thinly traded.
