OPINION
ACTION

Opinions for stocks held in the Emerging Companies Portfolio

22/01/2025 16:46

Paladin Energy (PDN) $9.19

PDN +10.06%: Today released its December Quarter ‘24 operations update, well received by the market as lower production estimates in analyst numbers were clearly overdone.

15/01/2025 09:54

Active Growth Portfolio – Amendments

We are making two changes to the Active Growth Portfolio today.

18/12/2024 09:35

PEXA Group (PXA) $13.33

PEXA is an electronic lodgement and settlement network that aligns communication in property transactions between vendors, banks, lawyers and other participants in the transaction. It is a growth company, on a growth multiple/valuation, but has ultimately failed to meet market expectations.

10/12/2024 11:21

Emerging Companies Portfolio – Amendments

We are making several changes to the Emerging Companies Portfolio.

10/12/2024 09:37

Paladin Energy Ltd (PDN) $7.47

This morning’s pick feels like entering the lion’s den and a very different proposition to Catapult (CAT) 3-months ago. PDN is down more than 50% from its 2024 high, but we believe it’s standout value around $7.50.

27/11/2024 16:56

Aussie Broadband (ABB) $3.75

ABB +4.75%: Announced plans for an on-market share buyback of up to 10% of its issued capital over the next year, which is ~27m shares worth around $100m, with the buyback starting post half year results on the 25th Feb.

27/11/2024 09:46

Hansen Technologies (HSN) $5.70

The technology provider that underpins billing for key services like electricity, gas & pay TV has sat on our hitlist for the Emerging Companies Portfolio for some time now, though the share price has been ebbing and flowing between $4 & $6, with no specific catalyst to see it push out of that range.

26/11/2024 09:49

Catapult Group International (CAT) $3.42

For subscribers unfamiliar with CAT, it’s the global leader in sports technology solutions that allow coaches to see how players are performing on the field. Remember, sports is a huge business, especially overseas; Manchester United has a market cap of $US2.9bn with 1-2 goals making/losing huge revenue.

21/11/2024 09:52

Paladin Energy Ltd (PDN) $7.81

We have discussed PDN at length in recent days/weeks as the stock has become increasingly disliked; it now has a 14.4% short position, and only Boss Energy (BOE) at 15.2% is larger in the space.

19/11/2024 09:12

Paladin Energy Ltd (PDN) $7.69

PDN bounced +5.5% on Monday, but it remained significantly below its May peak. The Paladin share price has plunged ~48% in the past month due to commissioning issues at the Langer Heinrich Uranium mine.
