Highlights
The presenter is long shares of WESCO International Inc. (WCC), a distributor of electrical, utility & broadband, and network & security products due to its extremely cheap valuation relative to peers. He believes bears are unfairly punishing WESCO based on concerns about recent earnings growth and cash flow conversion. The presenter doesn't share these concerns and is confident the company can generate at least $1B of cash over the next three quarters, which is in line with guidance. He also believes free cash conversion will improve as working capital demands slow and that WCC can generate cash equal to or greater than its entire market cap over the next cycle.
