Michael Sprung - BNN - Top Pick Aecon Group (ARE TSX)
Owned personally and by clients, last purchase October 2022 at $10.45
Aecon is a leading construction and infrastructure company. With the recent sales of a 49.9 per cent minority stake in the Bermuda International Airport concession for US$128.5 million and the sale of the Ontario road-building business for $235 million, ARE is in a much stronger financial position. The four remaining problem fixed-price contracts should be substantially completed by next year. Aecon is now in a position to concentrate on more lucrative contracts in a robust bidding environment. At current levels, the stock is yielding near 5.9 per cent.
