Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

In Q4, PSI missed EPS expectations of 29c coming in at 11c. Revenue beat expectations of $89.26M coming in at $93.93M but did decrease 1% year-over-year. Industry activity levels in North America, decreased by 19% year over year, while revenue per industry Day increased by 12% in that same period to $998, posting a new record quarterly level. The weaker results on a yearly basis reflects the inflationary effects on the Company's high fixed cost base for its drilling related business units, higher levels of lower margin sales from its solar and energy storage segment, and the inclusion of equity accounted losses related to supporting the rapid growth of Intelligent Wellhead Systems (IWS). Free Cash Flow increased significantly from $3.7M in year prior to $19.3M in the Q4 of 2023 with lower levels of working capital investments and capital expenditures year over year. PSI also increased its dividend 8% in the quarter. PSI continues to face industry related pressures related to lower levels of drilling activity which are hurting earnings and revenue but as these subside the company should perform better. The dividend increase was a good signal that PSI is still generating comfortable cash returns even while demand is slower.

A oil and gas service company with a $1.7 billion market cap. Payout ratio of 57%. With oil prices rising they could see cash flow grow by 16% in 2020. He will personally be looking to buy it on Monday. Yield 3.52% (Analysts’ price target is $24.90)

TOP PICK
Pason Systems Inc.

*Short* (Pairs trade with a Long on Trican Well Services (TCW-T)). This one is not a bad business, but the stock is much more expensive and is trading at twice the cash flow multiple that Trican does. There has been quite a bit of insider selling recently. All of a sudden, there is some very strong competitive pressure. Dividend yield of 3.5%. (Analysts’ price target is $21.50.)
