The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday, Nov. 11, edition that National Bank Securities analyst Zachary Evershed continues to rate Alaris Equity Partners Income Trust "outperform." The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that Mr. Evershed gave his unit target a $2 boost to $27. Analysts on average target the units at $25.04. Mr. Evershed says in a note: "On the back of two new investments and follow-ons, our target rises to $27 (was $25), based on a 14.1-per-cent discount rate. The value of Alaris's common equity investments now totals $325-million (cost basis), roughly 18 per cent of the portfolio. With a substantial return to target, minimal exposure to geopolitical headwinds, and robust execution continually growing and diversifying the partner portfolio, we rate Alaris 'outperform.'"
