WHY I SOLD MY SNC STOCK

Greetings folks,

Felt like sharing a very interesting conversation I had with a childhood friend yesterday.

But before, let me remind you i own snc stock and i am long. Anyways, nobody on this forum has the power to move the stock up or down. The proof is Gabriel, the best snc spokesman the compangy has ever had and the stock hasen't moved an inch in the last year.

Many of us wonder why we are the only ones to see an opportunity here. This could shed some light on how the rest of them think.

So, after the normal chit chat with my friend, we started talking about the market. I mentionned with eager the great opportunity snc was. Laughter...relax my friend, i am in the construction business remember. I know the business and I was heavely invested in snc until after q1 2020.

Then he went on to explain to me in details why he decided to sell all snc stock after q1 last spring (by the way, he is convinced this is the same reason why the ceo sold his stock just before q1 earnings):

First, they are implicated deepely in lstk projects. Not only are they difficult to predict in best of times, but with Covid, the negative impact on lstk projects will last way into this year (2021). He gave me the example of his business, all the condos he sold pre-Covid for delivery in 2020 were at a loss. New sanitary rules for workers and higher prices in materials were the main reasons he lost money. At best, snc's contracts might provide a 50/50 responsibilty with customers. But even then, it will be difficult not to lose money.

Second, they are still dealing with ressources projects and restructuring (completing projects, selling and closing of compagnies etc.) All this has a cost. Lets not forget they also have litigation legacy lstk projects and suprises like last quarter are inevitable.

Bottom line, even if snc has a good quarter and ps rises, because of the ongoing problems of the company for the last years and the lack of trust of many investores, a tougher quarter or a bad headline will bring the stock right back to the floor. In French we say, chat chaud craint l'eau.

In conclusion, he believes that snc might have an upside potential in the midterm (will need many positive quarters), but meanwhile others peers are doing great NOW.

In case you wonder, after selling snc last spring, he bought wsp and since then the ps is up almost 100%............... (bast$$d!).

Have a great game!

Pour rtablir certaines de vos info.... Lstk probablement termin ou presque, Insiders on fait d'importantes acquisitions sur le march rcemment, Valeur comptable plus lev que le prix de l'action, Revenus et carnet de commande remarquable, Actifs importants avec autoroute 407 et le reste de SNC capital. Atkins a lui seul vaut la capitalisation boursire actuelle, Rajoutons SNC capital et SNC ...more

Tell me why Pierre you are taking all this time to post the lamest post I have read in a while on this board ??? Because you want to help us ? Because you think we can't think on our own ?  Is there any new information in your post ? Nope, nothing. 0

Comme Rooki, des profils inscrits en janvier 2021, des menteurs sur leurs positions, pathetic....
Comment by finalstep on Feb 07, 2021 4:17pm
La moindre des choses de la part de ceux qui mise sur une baisse serait l'honntet. . Annoncez votre position et donnez vos arguments, mais mentir sur votre position et tenter de dnigrer avec des profits informations de demie vrit est pathetic et preuve de votre nervosit.

Je possde 50k actions de SNC avec un cot moyen de 21,5$. Quand je voit des menteurs je songe a ajouter chaque foi un 10 k de plus .... Voil comment je voudrais ragir, mais je me gre pour profiter si le titre baisse encore.. . Donns vos actions si vous le voulez, ils en ont besoins et je profiterai aussi

Voyons donc, a ne change rien. Ceux qui ont beacoup d'actions en ont ras-le-bol de voir des sommets du march et des wsp et stn, mais ce n'est pas parce que quelqu'un sur un board parle de vendre qu'on va vendre.  C'est absolument dsolant par contre, snc quasiment au mme prix qu'en mars, il faut tre TRES patient, ceux qui ont perdu 50% et plus... la valorisation n' ...more

Exact personne ne connat l'avenir , mais je me permet de vous corriger, tous ne veulent pas un 30 ou 40 et la prsence de pierre et Rooki en est la preuve ... Oui je ragit quand des menteurs viennent sans dvoiler leurs relles intentions.

Good Eye FinalStep.  Pierre or his friend is very well versed in the Topic.  He is creating fear not to invest.  Probably they want to cover their short position.  Another reason to BUY & HOLD.  His first point LSTK - From mid 2019 to Q3 2020:  reduction from 3,6 billion to 2,2 billion work remaining  Only for LSTK EPC, Q2 & Q3 2020: 1,1 billion was the ...more
