  • Report to Investors 3Rd Quarter 2020
    Report to Investors 3rd Quarter 2020 Investment Commentary There is so much to worry about – a second wave of COVID, US Presidential elections, ongoing global trade tensions, large government deficits, and high market volatility to name a few concerns. In an environment where dividend futures are implying a double digit decrease for the broader market through 2022 and overall anxiety remains high, good things are still occurring in many specific situations. According to JP Morgan and based on the current Index composition, 77 companies within the S&P 500 have raised their dividends during the COVID pandemic. At Bristol Gate we know that a commitment to pay a fast rising dividend in good, and more importantly, difficult markets is often indicative of a strong competitive advantage. We know that market leading companies in attractive markets with good stewards of capital who reinvest in attractive projects are generally better investments than those who are not. We believe focusing on such companies skews the already attractive asymmetry in equity markets (they rise more often than they fall) further in our favour. Although we manage “dividend funds”, we generally steer clear of traditional dividend paying sectors such as Real Estate and Utilities. While 75% of the Utilities sector and two thirds of Real Estate firms in the S&P 500 have raised their dividends this year, the companies overall have funded that growth by issuing shares. They essentially take from Peter to pay Paul. We prefer our dividend growth not be driven by financial engineering. Exhibit 1.

  • Accounting Vigil I Nsights T Hat M Atter
    ACCOUNTING VIGIL I NSIGHTS T HAT M ATTER JULY 2017 VOLUME 11 ISSUE 7 NON-GAAP DEFERRED REVENUE: HOW COMMON IS IT? Non-GAAP Deferred Revenue: How Common Investors were puzzled in Q1-F18 when BlackBerry reported a GAAP increase in Enterprise Software and Services revenue (its key segment for future growth) of 12% YoY, but a drop of 4.7% YoY on a non-GAAP is it? basis. For a company whose future is staked on a successful software transition, Blackberry’s metrics for revenues are critical to tracking progress on this strategy. Analyst: At the heart of BlackBerry’s divergence between GAAP and non-GAAP revenues is the treatment of Desmond Lau deferred revenue balances picked up by acquiring other companies. In BlackBerry’s case, these amounts largely stem from the company’s acquisition of Good Technology on October 30, 2015. Prior to being acquired, Good would have recorded a deferred revenue liability for licenses where it had received cash but future work, such as software updates or bug fixes, remained outstanding. Over time, Good’s accounting would have brought the deferred revenue balances into GAAP revenues, typically on a ratable basis, matching the life of the license. Also in this Vigil: Upon acquisition, all Good’s assets and liabilities were marked to their fair value, including deferred V-List Model Portfolio revenue. Instead of recording deferred revenues at a revenue-like figure (i.e. cash received less Page 4 revenue recognition so far), Blackberry’s acquisition accounting required a revaluation of the account at an estimated cost to service the obligation plus a normal profit, with GAAP revenue recognition becoming more like a cost-plus margin than a topline revenue figure.
