Stockchase Research TOP PICK
West Fraser Timber
(WFG-T)
May 13, 2021
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly With lumber prices up 300% and demand strong for renovations, it is challenging to find an entry into the space at good value. This is the sweet spot for WFG, having 60 facilities in Canada, the US, United Kingdom and Europe. Recently reported sales were up 81%. It trades at 8x earnings, compared to peers over 17x. It pays a small dividend, backed by a payout ratio of under 10% of cashflow. We would buy this with a stop loss at $60, looking to achieve $136 -- upside potential over 38%. Yield 0.82% (Analysts’ price target is $135.70)
