Johnson and Johnson

Sound bite for Twitter is: Dividend Growth Consumer. Results of stock price testing is that the stock price is probably expensive. Debt Ratios are fine, but Liquidity could improve. The Dividend Payout Ratios (DPR) are currently good. The current dividend yield is low with dividend growth low. See my spreadsheet on Johnson and Johnson.

Is it a good company at a reasonable price? Not doubt that this company has generally done well for its shareholders over long periods of time. However, the stock price is at a long term high. It is probably not a good time to buy. My testing is saying that the stock price is relatively expensive.

I do not own this stock of Johnson and Johnson (NYSE-JNJ). As Canadians, we are told we should be buying US stocks for our portfolio. It is often recommended that we have at least 25% of our portfolio in US stocks. I have never followed this, although I have tried dipping into the US market, but I have never made any money there. I bought some of this stock in June 2005 and realized a year later, in June of 2006 that it was going nowhere for me and sold. I lost almost 17% of my investment. When I bought in 2005, all the analysts were saying that it was a good buy at that time.

When I was updating my spreadsheet, I noticed that the stock price went up by 43% in 2028 and is up some 91% so far this year. There were 5 years periods between 2003 and 2012 that this stock did not do well. That changed after 2013 and most of the time to 2025 there was 8% total return over 5 year periods.

In the chart below, I am showing 5 and 10 year total growth and per year growth in columns 3 and 4. In column 5, I am showing what growth has been over the past 12 months to the end of the third quarter in 2026 and what is expected to the end of this year. The last column of the stock price growth is for the next 12 months.

This would be a total return of 11.60% per year with 7.26% from capital gain and 4.34% from dividends.

If you added in Cash Flow after dividends, the ratios are still low at 1.25 and currently at 1.16. I like these ratios to be at 1.50 or higher. The Debt Ratio for 2025 is good at 1.69 and 1.70 currently. The Leverage and Debt/Equity Ratios for 2025 are fine at 2.44 and 1.44 and currently at 2.42 and 1.42.

Results of stock price testing is that the stock price is probably expensive. The 10 year median dividend yield says this and it is confirmed by the P/S Ratio test. All but one test is saying that the stock price is relatively expensive.

When I look at analysts’ recommendations, I find Strong Buy (11), Buy (5), Hold (6), and Sell (1). The consensus is a Buy. The 12 month stock price consensus is $279.41 with a high of $320.00 and a low of 190.00.

Analyst on Stock Chase seem to like this company. Brendan Coffey on Motley Fool compares Amgen and JNJ and says they are both good but Amgen is relatively cheaper.

The company put out a Press Release about their fourth quarter results for 2025. The company put out a Press Release about their third quarter of 2026.

Quebecor Inc

Sound bite for Twitter is: Dividend Growth Telecom. Debt Ratios are mostly fine, but debt level is high. The Dividend Payout Ratios (DPR) are good. The current dividend yield is moderate with dividend growth moderate. See my spreadsheet on Quebecor Inc.

Is it a good company at a reasonable price? The stock price is off its recent high, but the stock price has climber sharply since January 2025. It has done well for its shareholders over time, but a lot of that has to do with the recent rise in the stock price. This seems like a good stock, but because of the current price, I would be cautious if buying. The stock price may not be very reasonable at present. When buying any company, you should do more than one purchase and purchase in different months.

I do not own this stock of Quebecor Inc (TSX-QBR.B, OTC-QBCRF). I thought I should cover more communication stock besides BCE, so I chose Quebecor Inc, Telus Inc and Cogeco Communications Inc.

When I was updating my spreadsheet, I noticed that last year the stock price went up 64% and this year it went up 26%. There are good increases in the stock price. This company has been growing. See the chart below. Dividends were increased twice in 2026 and increase for 2026 of 21.4%.

In the chart below, I am showing 5 and 10 year total growth and per year growth in columns 3 and 4. Column 5 shows growth expected over 12 months to the first quarter in 2026 and expected growth over this year. I have included EBITDA Growth as this has become more important.

The 5-year low, median, and high median Price/Earnings per Share Ratios are 9.36, 11.24 and 12.75. The corresponding 10 year ratios are 11.39, 12.66 and 14.46.

The current ratio is above the high ratio of the 10 year median ratios. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive.

I also have Adjusted Earnings per Share (AEPS) data. The 5-year low, median, and high median Price/Earnings per Share Ratios are 8.99, 10.80 and 12.24. The corresponding 10 year ratios are 11.32, 12.97 and 14.61. The corresponding historical ratios are 11.05, 12.97 and 14.61. The current ratio is 15.44 based on a stock price of $65.95 and AEPS estimate for 2026 of $4.27. The current ratio is above the high ratio of the 10 year median ratios.

The current ratio is between the median and high ratio of the 10 year median ratios. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively reasonable but above the median.

I get a 10-year median Price/Book Value per Share Ratio of 6.45. The current ratio is 5.37 based on a Book Value of $2,743.7M, Book Value per Share of $12.25 and a stock price of $65.95. The current ratio is 17% below the 10 year median ratio. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively reasonable and below the median.

I get a 10-year median Price/Cash Flow per Share Ratio of 4.91. The current ratio is 9.85 based on Cash Flow per Share of $6.70, Cash Flow estimate for 2026 of $1,500M and a stock price of $65.95. The current ratio is 100% above the 10 year median ratio. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive. (I sort of wonder about the estimate as the estimate is 26% below the CFPS for 2025.)

If we use the Cash Flow for the last 12 months of $2,094M, we get a Cash Flow per Share of $9.35 and with a stock price of $65.95 and a ratio of 7.06. This ratio is 44% above the 10 year median ratio. And, this stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive. So, the score is not better.

I get an historical median dividend yield of 0.74%. The current ratio is 2.73% based on dividends of $1.80 and a stock price of $65.95. The current dividend yield is 269% above the historical median dividend yield. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively cheap. (See above that yields were really low before 2019.)

I get an historical median dividend yield of 2.99%. The current ratio is 2.73% based on dividends of $1.80 and a stock price of $65.95. The current dividend yield is 8.6% below the historical median dividend yield. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively reasonable but above the median.

The current ratio is 66% above the 10 year median ratio. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive.

Results of stock price testing is that the stock price is could be reasonable, but probably not. The 10 year median dividend yield test says that the stock price is reasonable, but above the median. The P/S Ratio test does not confirm this result and it says that the stock price is relatively expensive. A number of other tests are saying that the stock price is relatively expensive.

When I look at analysts’ recommendations, I find Strong Buy (5), Buy (5) and Hold (5). The consensus is Strong Buy. The 12 month stock price consensus is $73.20 with a high of $80.00 and a low of 66.00. The 12 month stock price consensus of $73.20 implies a total return of 13.72% with 10.99% from capital gains and 2.73% from dividends based on a current stock price of $65.95.

Analysts on Stock Chase this year like this stock. Last year one analyst said that money was rotated from telcos to cable companies like this one and there would be some sort of mean reversion. So be cautious. Joey Frenette on Motley Fool thinks that investors will be better off with this stock than with Telus or BCE. Amy Legate-Wolfe on Motley Fool says that because of inflation you want to look at dividend growth not yield. She likes this stock as a dividend grower. The company put out a Press Release for the fourth quarter results of 2025. The company put out a Press Release about their second quarter of 2026.

Simply Wall Street via Yahoo Finance looks at the fair market value of this stock from different perspectives. Simply Wall Street has one warning of has a high level of debt. Simply Wall Street gives this stock 2 and one half stars out of 5.

Cenovus Energy Inc

Sound bite for Twitter is: Dividend Paying Resource. Results of stock price testing is that the stock price could still be reasonable, but maybe not. Debt Ratios are good. The Dividend Payout Ratios (DPR) are good. The current dividend yield is Low with dividend growth currently moderate. See my spreadsheet on Cenovus Energy Inc.

Is it a good company at a reasonable price? This is a resource stocks and I tend not to buy such stocks as they are cyclical. On the dividend testing it is testing as reasonable. However, if you look at its chart, it is at an all-time high. It is probably never a good idea to buy a stock, especially a cyclical stock at a all-time high point.

I do not own this stock of Cenovus Energy Inc (TSX-CVE, NYSE-CVE). This is another stock that was talked about at the 2010 Money Show in Toronto. There were those who liked oil companies and they mentioned both Suncor Energy Inc. (TSX-SU) and Cenovus Energy Inc. (TSX-CVE). This company was split off from EnCana (TSX-ECA) in 2009. My spreadsheet reflects this split.

When I was updating my spreadsheet, I noticed that the stock price really climbed this year. It ended in December 2025 at $23.22 and is currently $46.67, a 100.99% increase. Since 2008, financials have been in CDN$ and Dividends are currently paid in CDN$. Growth has been good over the past 5 years. See chart below.

In the chart below, I am showing 5 and 10 year total growth and per year growth in columns 3 and 4. Column 5 shows growth expected over 12 months to the end of the second quarter in 2026 and expected growth over this year.

This ratio is between the median and high ratios of the 10 year median ratios. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively reasonable but above the median.

I also have Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO) data. The 5-year low, median, and high median Price/ Adjusted Funds from Operations Ratios are 3.11, 4.32 and 5.66. The corresponding 10 year ratios are 3.96, 5.51 and 6.58. The corresponding historical ratios are 5.31, 6.22 and 7.65.

I get a Graham Price of $48.57. The 10-year low, median, and high median Price/Graham Price Ratios are 0.51, 0.73 and 0.93. The current ratio is 0.96 based on a stock price of $46.67. This ratio is above the high ratio of the 10 year median ratios. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive.

I get a 10-year median Price/Book Value per Share Ratio of 1.12. The current ratio is 2.52 based on a Book Value of $34,198M, Book Value per Share of $18.49 and a stock price of $46.67. The current ratio is 126% above the 10 year median ratio. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive.

I also have a Book Value per Share estimate for 2026 of $20.76. With a stock price of $46.67 this implies a Book Value of $38,396M and a ratio of 2.25. This ratio is 101% above the 10 year median ratio. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive.

I get a 10-year median Price/Cash Flow per Share Ratio of 5.43. The current ratio is 5.03 based on Cash Flow per Share estimate for 2026 of $9.28, Cash Flow of $17,171M and a stock price of $46.67.

I get an historical median dividend yield of 1.60%. The current dividend yield is 1.89% based on dividends of $0.88 and a stock price of $46.67. The current dividend yield is 18% above the historical median dividend yield. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively reasonable and below the median.

I get a 10 year median dividend yield of 1.60%. The current dividend yield is 1.89% based on dividends of $0.88 and a stock price of $46.67. The current dividend yield is 18% above the 10 year median dividend yield. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively reasonable and below the median.

The current ratio is 80% above the 10 year median ratio. This stock price testing suggests that the stock price is relatively expensive.

Results of stock price testing is that the stock price could still be reasonable, but maybe not. The dividend yield tests are saying this but it is not confirmed by the P/S Ratio test. The dividend yield tests are not all that good because dividends have been inconsistent. The P/S Ratio test says that the stock price is relatively expensive. Most of the testing is saying that except for the P/CF Ratio test that says that the stock price is reasonable.

When I look at analysts’ recommendations, I find Strong Buy (8) and Buy (3). The consensus would a Strong Buy. The 12 month stock price consensus is $52.60 with a high of $58.00 and a low of $47.00. The consensus stock price of $52.60 implies a total return of 14.59% with a capital gain of 12.71% and dividends of 1.89% based on a current stock price of $46.67.

Most analysts thinks that Cenovus is a buy on Stock Chase. The one Do Not Buy just likes CNQ better.

Keyera Corp

Sound bite for Twitter is: Dividend Growth Utility. Results of stock price testing is that the stock price is probably on the expensive side. Debt Ratios are need improving, but utilities tend to have high debt loads. The Dividend Payout Ratios (DPR) mostly fine as shown by AFFO and FFO. The current dividend yield is moderate with dividend growth low. See my spreadsheet on Keyera Corp.

Is it a good company at a reasonable price? This stock has mostly done fine for shareholders. The dividend yield has been quite good. It is a utility and so mainly a safe stock to buy. Currently, the price seems to be rather expensive.

I do not own this stock of Keyera Corp (TSX-KEY, OTC-KEYUF). I started to review some of the stock recommended by Jennifer Dowty from a column she wrote and I reviewed in February 2010 on Dividends and Special Dividends. The title of the article in Investor’s Digest was Dividend Stocks: Buy, Hold and Collect. Jennifer worked as a Portfolio Manager for Manulife Asset Management Limited after working for Investor's digest.

When I was updating my spreadsheet, I noticed they have a lot of cash. They got this from selling shares. They seem to be on a buying streak. EPS lower in 2026 because of Acquisition and Integration costs.

If you had invested in this company in December 2015, for $1,006.50 you would have bought 25 shares at $40.26 per share. In December 2025, after 10 years you would have received $465.31 in dividends. The stock would be worth $1,100.00. Your total return would have been $1,565.31. This would be a total return of 5.29% per year with 0.89% from capital gain and 4.40% from dividends.

Safi Silver Corp

Sound bite for Twitter is: Risky Mining Stock. Results of stock price testing is that the stock price is that none can be done. Debt Ratios are good. There are no dividends so there is no dividend growth or Dividend Payout Ratios (DPR). See my spreadsheet on Safi Silver Corp.

Is it a good company at a reasonable price? This is a Canadian mining company. I once had a roommate that was a geologist and any time, I suggested even taking a gamble on a Canadian mining company, she always talked me out of it because apparently Canadian mining companies generally have a bad reputation. However, I realize investing in this company I was gambling. I am fine with that. It has been an interesting adventure following this company. Any money in it is a gamble.

I own this stock of Safi Silver Corp (TSX-SF, OTC-PNTZF). I originally brought this stock in 2000 as Tathacus Resources Ltd. because it was doing interesting things. It was part of a basket of small caps that I was buying at that time. There was a reverse takeover (RTO) of this company on April 28, 2011 by Pan Terra Industries Inc. Symbol PNT. On May 2, 2012 there was a name change from Pan Terra Industries (PNT) to Kombat Copper Inc. (KBT). September 2016 there was a name change to Trigon Metals Inc. Name change in 2026 to Safi Silver Corp. I sold the stock in my Pension fund and bought this stock in my TFSA account.

When I was updating my spreadsheet, I noticed stock price is going down. There is not much information available on this stock on any site. I have spent too much time on this stock that has little value at the present time. They seem to change the name quite a bit.

I cannot do any Price/Earnings testing because of mostly earnings losses over the last 5 and 10 years.

I cannot calculate a Graham Price because of earnings losses. I cannot do any P/GP Ratio testing.

I get a 10-year median Price/Book Value per Share Ratio of 5.04. But I get a median P/B Ratios from a negative 20.11 to a positive 564.70 over the past 10 years. The current P/B Ratio is 1.08 which is 86% below the 10 year median ratio. I doubt this is anywhere close to a good test. However, a P/B Ratio of 1.08 is a low one and a good ratio.

I get a 10-year median Price/Cash Flow per Share Ratio that is negative, so I cannot do any P/CF Ratio test.

There are no dividends, so I cannot do any dividend yield testing.

There is no Revenue, so I cannot do any P/S Ratio test.

Results of stock price testing is that the stock price is that none can be done.

When I look at analysts’ recommendations, I find a Strong Buy (1) from 3 months ago. So, I guess the consensus is a Strong Buy. According to Google there is a target price of $1.50 on Market Watch and that is true. They also say that on Trading View there is a Sell or Strong Sell due to the recent downward price momentum. I when on to the Trading View site on today and under Summary, it says Sell (4), Neutral (9) and Buy (13).
