In our recent less-than-positive article regarding Enbridge, we were asked what our thoughts on TransCanada Corporation (NYSE:TRP) were as an alternative pipeline investment. This article is in response.
Financial data for this article has been gathered from MSN money and Marketwatch and is generally discussed in terms of annual results.
TransCanada currently pays an annual 4.00% or $0.46 quarterly with regular dividend raises going back to 2004. Over the past five years, the stock has returned an annualized 7.2% from share appreciation or 11.4% including the dividend without reinvestment.
The first thing that attracts us to TRP over Enbridge (NYSE:ENB) is the higher gross profit margins. Over the past five years, TransCanada had gross margins that increased from 48% in 2008 to almost 72% in 2010 and 2011. A small decrease of 3.5% was seen to 69% in 2012. Compare these margins to those of Enbridge with ~ 20% gross margins.
When the SGA expenses of TRP are considered, as of 2012 the company was spending only 18% of gross on these expenses, down from the 25% in 2010. This is on average half of the 40% to 50% that ENB spends. The depreciation, amortization and depletion expenses of TRP is very similar compared to those of ENB; over the past five years TRP has spent between 22% and 30% of gross with a general declining trend compared to the approximately static 22% that ENB has been spending. The interest expenses of TRP have also ranged between 32% and 25% of gross profit over the past five years, again lower compared to the 35% to 65% seen for ENB.
In the Enbridge article, one of the strongest factors precluding investment was the net profit margin of only 2.83%. Compare this with TRP's net margins of a relatively constant 16% - 19% over the past five years. 2012 did show a 14% decrease of net income year-over-year for TRP with a concurrent 15% drop in EPS. With this, the P/E has reached 24, higher than the 20 seen in the previous two years. Despite this, while in the last two years ENB has shown a decrease in retained earnings of 17% and 12%, TRP has grown retained earnings every year since 2008, although in 2012 this was only by 1.3%.
Now when the debt of TRP is compared to that of ENB, the number of years for TRP to pay off all long-term debt using net earnings has ranged from 12 to 15 years with no distinct trend. Compare this to ENB which in 2012 would require over 28 years to pay off all LT debt. Over the past five years, the buyback-adjusted debt to shareholder equity ratio has ranged between 0.33 and 0.40 for TRP compared to the 0.44 to 0.67 seen for ENB. In 2012, TRP and ENB both had large capital expenditures, for TRP this was 177% of net income and for ENB it was 196%.
The treasury stock-adjusted shareholder return on equity has decreased from 11% in 2008 to only 8.6% in 2012; however, this is still higher than ENB which showed a decrease of 20% to 6.8% over the same time frame. The return on assets in 2012 for TRP was 2.8% compared to the 1.5% for ENB.
In Warren Buffett and the Interpretation of Financial Statements an overview of how Buffett treats the rate of return of a company with a durable competitive advantage as equivalent to bonds is presented. Due to the high barriers to entry of a pipeline as a result of the massive assets required (for ENB, 48 billion of assets in 2012), we will consider pipelines by their nature to have a measure of durable competitive advantage. If TRP is considered an equity bond, its coupon rate would be 5.9% in 2012, down from the 10% in 2008. For ENB it would be 3% in 2012 after declining from 12% in 2008.
So as a result of higher margins, less damaging LT debt and growth of retained earnings, at the moment TRP appears to be a better stock to hold than ENB. However with the P/E getting ahead of itself, we would not recommend entering any new positions. Of course, investors must do their own due diligence before entering any position with their own investment goals in mind.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Waterfront view ?
Beautiful park ! Many places to fish.
Not dog friendly.
Half campsites were on the beach and half on the river.
Riverside has one bathhouse / Air conditioned but not close to all the sites.
Large sites overall.
Rained the first day, flooded 95% of the riverside sites, ours (#54) was the worst with at least 4" of standing water.
No vacant dry spots. Refund issued returned home.
Will try again during dry season. (maybe)

The Use of Prior Convictions after Apprendi
Colleen P. Murphy
Roger Williams University School of Law
UC Davis Law Review, Vol. 37, p. 973, 2004
Roger Williams Univ. Legal Studies Paper No. 14
In Apprendi v. New Jersey, the Supreme Court announced the general rule that "[o]ther than the fact of a prior conviction, any fact that increases the penalty for a crime beyond the prescribed statutory maximum must be submitted to a jury, and proved beyond a reasonable doubt." Since Apprendi, most courts have read this language to mean that a defendant who contests the existence of a prior conviction for sentencing purposes is not entitled to a jury trial or to proof beyond a reasonable doubt on the fact of the prior conviction. On the other hand, courts have split as to the process that must have been afforded by the tribunal that rendered the prior judgment. Some courts have held that a judgment rendered by a nonjury tribunal may not be used to enhance the penalty for a subsequent offense. Other courts have held that a prior conviction produced by a nonjury tribunal may increase the penalty for a subsequent offense as long as the nonjury tribunal followed a reliable factfinding process.
In this article, I examine two settings: (1) the process for determining whether the defendant incurred the prior conviction asserted by the prosecution and (2) the process that must have been afforded in the tribunal that rendered the prior judgment. With respect to court determination of the existence of a prior conviction, I argue that the Constitution guarantees that the prior conviction be proven beyond a reasonable doubt and that the defendant be afforded a right to a jury trial. With respect to the process resulting in a prior conviction or adjudication, I suggest that the prior tribunal must have employed the reasonable doubt standard, but it need not have afforded a right to a jury trial. A requirement of proof beyond a reasonable doubt would invalidate the use of prior convictions rendered by foreign tribunals that employ lesser standards of proof, and it would invalidate the use of civil adjudications that are based on the preponderance of the evidence standard.

New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - November 26, 2005, New Braunfels, Texas Page 2A — Herald-Zeitung — Saturday, November 26, 2005 China: Officials blamed for disaster will be punished HARBIN, China (AP)—China's leaders sent a team Friday to investigate a chemical plant accident that poisoned a major river, saying officials responsible will be punished as the 3.8 million residents of this northeastern city went a third frigid day without running water. Hundreds of villagers were being evacuated near Harbin on the Songhua River as toxic benzene flowed past, while a Russian city downstream braced for its arrival. In China's southwest, some 6,000 people reportedly were evacuated following a second chemical plant explosion, raising fears of a new poisoning disaster. In Harbin, a line of some 500 people stretching for IOO yards waited in windy, subzero weather in a working class district on the city's east side for water to come by truck. When a truck with a tank on its bed arrived, residents rushed to GII tea kettles, buckets and basins at a portable tap with Ave spigots. "Everyone has enough at home for the basics, but they want to add some for washing and cooking," said Guan Hongya, a 54-year-old manager for a textile Arm, who was Ailing buckets to carry back to her third floor, walk-up apartment. The floor of Quarts kitchen was covered with pots, pans and plastic trash cans that she Ailed with water after the government said supplies would be suspended.From staff, wire reports LOCALBULVERDE CONGRESSMAN TO ATTEND MEETING - U.S. Rep.

TEXASCRAWFORD MONUMENT TO WAR PROTEST UNVEILED - Anti war demonstrators gathered Friday at the Crawford Peace House for the unveiling of a stone monument with the words "Sheehan's Stand," a tribute to the August protest that drew thousands to President Bush's adopted hometown. Cindy Sheehan, the fallen soldier's mother who led the 26-day protest near Bush's ranch, cried when she saw the 2-foot-high, 4-foot-wide sandstone marker. On the other side of the rectangular monument is the word "Why!" and names of more than two dozen soldiers whose families were part of the August vigil. "Nobody knew what was going to happen, and we made up Camp Casey as we went along, and it grew and grew and grew," said Sheehan, of Berkeley, Calif., whose son 24-year-old son Casey died in Iraq last year. "I feel like this will always be my home.... But we're here to say that the killing has to stop, that we're not going to justify any more killing on our losses." Sheehan announced her protest plans while speaking at a Veterans for Peace convention in Dallas on Aug. 5. The next day, she and about 50 others traveled by bus to Crawford, marched toward Bush's ranch and spent the night in chairs in ditches, without food or flashlights.NATION ARMY'S PLANNED SEXUAL ASSAULT DATABASE MEETS WITH OPPOSITION - An Army plan to develop a database of sexual assaults is meeting some resistance from members of Congress and an advoca cy group who say it could violate victims' privacy. In a letter to Army Secretary Francis J. I larvey, 15 members o Congress said the new system would deter sexual assault victims from reporting crimes and seeking treatment, and they asked him not to collect or store any personal information or medical records in the database. The proposal comes in the wake of sex assault scandals in the military and ongoing efforts by the Pentagon to respond to those problems. The Air Force Academy in Colorado is still struggling to recover from complaints that dozens of female cadets were assaulted and then punished when they reported it. And a recent survey by the Veter ans Affairs Department showed that six in IO women who servec in the National Guard and Reserves say they were sexually harassed or assaulted. Supreme Court nominees deals with ethics criticism WASIIINGTON (AP) — fudge Samuel Alito has said he did not break a federal ethics law when he ruled in a case involving the company that handles his mutual fund investments. Ijegal experts are divided over whether Alito did anything wrong in the case three years ago. Of more immediate concern is his explanation of his role in that case — along with questions about what his recusal practices will be if confirmed to the high court. Judges, including Supreme Court justices, are required by law to stay out of cases in which they have a financial stake. Members of the high court, however, decide for themselves when to recuse with no oversight. Alito serves on the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia and has most of his money in mutual funds. When he joined the court in 1990 he told senators he would avoid cases in which Vanguard Group was a party. Senators questioned him about the 2002 Vanguard case, which was the subject of a conflict of interest complaint filed by the woman who lost her lawsuit. Alito withdrew after first ruling against her and the decision was reaffinned without his participation. Alito and the White House have offered several explanations: that a computer glitch allowed the disqualification issue to slip through undetected, that Alito's 1990 pledge to £/*</ vrvaa/ FISCHER TEXAS- WEIHNACHTSMARKT CHRISTMAS MARKET DEC. 2, 3 & 4 from 10-5 FM 306 to FM 484 to Fischer ti LUEB0NNET fS VI 1875 HWY 81 W NEW BRAUNFELS.

"The explanation causes greater concern than the problem," said Stephen (fillers, a professor specializing in legal ethics at New York University's School of Ixiw. "It would have all gone away if Judge Alito had said, ' Ibis was an oversight.' People can forgive oversights. We all have them." Doug Kendall, executive director of the Community Rights Counsel, a public interest law firm, said tile response was "inconsistent and somewhat incoherent." "His explanation has made it an issue that will continue through the (Senate) hearings," said Kendall. .-If XU St, Lottery TEXAS LOTTBRY SATURDAY LOTTO Jackpot: $20 million 91519 22 30 BB 13 WEDNESDAY LOTTO Jackpot: $23 million 6-20-21-2905 BB 34 PICK 3 Day 3-7-4 Night 0-0-9 TEXAS TWO-STEP 11-16-27-31 BB 15 CASH FIVE 8 9 13-25-32 MEGA MILLIONS 5-25-31-33-34 ^ 41 Megapler 3 LIMITED TIME!
