Top 1000: In a dismal year for profits, Canadian b Motorcycle Racing Partanks soaredAdd to ...
Visit this year's Top 1000 rankings of Canada's most profitable companies and find more tables, multimedia and analysis in Report on Business's full Top 1000 section. When Report on Business magazine set out to sketch the first full picture of Canada’s 1,000 largest publicly traded companies back in 1984, the biggest banks occupied five of the nine most profitable slots belo Orient Express Racing w top-ranked phone heavyweight motorcycle helmet sale Bell Canada Enterprises. Three energy companies also made the top 10,Coach Factory Outlet, along with now-defunct global booze giant Seagram, which came in third. Dozens of companies have joined the Top 1000 list in the ensuing three decades. But many former stars have followed Seagram out the door, as Canada’s universe of public companies has narrowed, thanks to the waves of foreign and domestic takeovers, mergers, buyouts, bailouts and bankruptcies that have gutted entire sectors.More Related to this StoryHere comes value: 10 Canadian bargain stocksCanada's stock market offers a false reflection of our economyTalking with Gord Nixon,Coach Outlet Store Online, the leader of Canada’s most profitable companyClaude Mongeau, CEO of Canadian National Railway.for Report on Business magazineMultimedia10 of Canada's most influential CEOs on what they learned last yearThe Globe and MailVideoVideo: RIM drops way down the Top 1000 listMultimediaTop 1000: Exclusive rankings of Canada's most profitable companiesCalgary-based Black Diamond Group (Top 1000 rank: 221) rents out and sells temporary housing and offices.for Report on BusinessGalleryHere comes value: Photos of companies that hit the investor sweet spotYet the leading players today look awfully familiar. The same lords of finance occupy five of the first six places on our latest profit scorecard,Coach Outlet, headed by the traditional pacesetter, Royal Bank of C adjustable handle anada, which reclaimed top spot after slipping to third a year earlier. In a year when the economy lost traction and total corporate profits slid sharply, bank earnings continued climbing,Coach Factory Online, most by double digits.It definitely pays, in other words, to belong to a cozy bar end mirror oligopoly whose regulated domestic market is largely kept safe from foreign predators. You could say the same for the folks running the modern iteration of BCE, whose protected turf and broadening media and mobile interests helped it climb to eighth from 13th a year earlier. The rest of the top 10 consists of venerable Imperial Oil (another holdover from the class of ’84), Suncor Energy, Canadian National Railway (a Crown corporation in 1984) and Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan (provincially owned back in t motorcycle stands he day).The country’s 1,000 largest publicly listed companies notched total earnings of just under $93.3 billion in 2012, down nearly 12% from the previous year, as deep declines in resources more than offset strong gains from banks and insurers. It was the weakest performance since 2009, when profits plunged to $55.7 billion in the wake of the global financial meltdown and the worst economic slump since the Great Depression.The finance-resource duopoly at the top of the earnings pyramid accounted for a combined 58.3% of the total. But at a time when commodity producers ran into stiff global headwinds and some hefty losses, the financials expanded their share of a smaller profit pie to 45.1%. Much of this was gobbled up by the six biggest banks, which stuffed their coffers with 31.4% of the 1000’s profits.A co yamaha racing parts uple of decades from now, our profit picture could look dramatically different, as communications and financial players spawned in the digital era, and developers of renewable energy, medical and other technologies, push their way up the ranks. Banks may even become smaller and less profitable, as Internet-based competitors take a growing bite out of their most profitable businesses. Heck, if a gossip website can raise $200,000 through crowdfunding in a matter of days to get its hands on a certain cellphone video, and a person apparently can buy a Porsche with virtual currency, who needs the expensive middleman? And the likes of BCE, Rogers (18th on the latest list), Telus (28th) and Shaw (37th) may well turn out to be right to fear the invasion of the channel-snatchers: Netflix, Apple and Microsoft, which plainly intend to lay siege to the Canadians’ profit-churning business models. It’s also not inconceivable that the traditional energy market that has enriched so many Canadian operators and investors could be turned upside down by then. “I would be surprised if you didn’t have the cheap motorcycle accessories emergence of alternative power across the globe,” says Arthur Heinmaa, managing partner of Toron Investment Management in Toronto, who pays close attention to developing global trends as part of his focus on managing risk. “You’re already seeing it in solar. You’re getting [cost] decreases of 20% to 30% a year.”Financial institutions may also feel the heat, as the business of packaging products and services like mutual funds and mortgages becomes increasingly commoditized, and clients find more innovative and cheaper ways of raising or parking capital and handling payments. “You always have to be careful of any business model that involves wholesaling,” Heinmaa says. “I may be shot down with a thunderbolt for saying this, but I suspect the whole finance side is going to be much smaller. Developments like crowdsourcing [of funds] are just in their infancy.”But it’s Canada’s communications heavyweights that face the biggest threats from what analysts call “disruptive” innovation. “When you look at Netflix or Hulu [which streams video] or indeed even the new Xbox, there are a lot of technologies that could potentially displace the ubiquitous set-top box,” Heinmaa points out. “And then, they [the telcos and cable companies] just become providers of data into the house. Once you have the data, you can choose how you want to allocate it. Each year, they’re losing land lines. Now, a number of people are pulling the plug on TV. It wouldn’t be hard to imagine an environment where that starts to accelerate.”Single page123NextTD Bank5 Year PerformanceAdd TD-T to your WatchlistTD-T87.240.830.961%View interactive chartSecurityPriceChangeTD-TTD Bank87.240.830.961%Add to watchlistY-TYellow Media Ltd.12.17-0.16-1.298%Add to watchlistT-TTELUS Corp.31.190.341.102%Add to watchlistSU-TSuncor Energy33.11-0.02-0.06%Add to watchlistK-TKinross Gold5.58-0.18-3.125%Add to watchlistECA-TEnCana Corp.17.980.010.056%Add to watchlistPOT-TPotash Corp. of Saskatchewan32.150.280.879%Add to watchlistSJR.B-TShaw Communications25.49-0.06-0.235%Add to watchlistRCI.B-TRogers Communications40.880.531.314%Add to watchlistRY-TRoyal Bank of Canada64.050.721.137%Add to watchlistIMO-TImperial Oil41.950.170.407%Add to watchlistBB-TBlackBerry Limited11.320.191.707%Add to watchlistNFLX-QNetflix Inc.259.192.591.009%Add to watchlistCNR-TCanadian National Railway102.381.061.046%Add to watchlistBMO-TBank of Montreal64.100.681.072%Add to watchlistABX-TBarrick Gold Corp.18.40-0.34-1.814%Add to watchlistBCE-TBCE Inc.41.800.210.505%Add to watchlistCM-TCIBC78.920.450.573%Add to watchlistBNS-TBank of Nova Scotia58.480.560.967%Add to watchlistRY-TTD-TBMO-TBNS-TCM-TBCE-TIMO-TSU-TCNR-TPOT-TRCI.B-TT-TSJR.B-TNFLX-QBB-TECA-TABX-TK-TY-TLive Discussion of RY on StockTwitsMore Discussion on RY-TLive Discussion of TD on StockTwitsMore Discussion on TD-TLive Discussion of BMO on StockTwitsMore Discussion on BMO-TLive Discussion of BNS on StockTwitsMore Discussion on BNS-TLive Discussion of CM on StockTwitsMore Discussion on CM-TLive Discussion of BCE on StockTwitsMore Discussion on BCE-TLive Discussion of IMO on StockTwitsMore Discussion on IMO-TLive Discussion of SU on StockTwitsMore Discussion on SU-TLive Discussion of C Street Bike Levers NR on StockTwitsMore Discussion on CNR-TLive Discussion of POT on StockTwitsMore Discussion on POT-TLive Discussion of RCI.B on StockTwitsMore Discussion on RCI.B-TLive Discussion of T on StockTwitsMore Discussion on T-TLive Discussion of SJR.B on StockTwitsMore Discussion on SJR.B-TLive Discussion of NFLX on StockTwitsMore Discussion on NFLX-QLive Discussion of BB on StockTwitsMore Discussion on BB-TLive Discussion of ECA on StockTwitsMore Discussion on ECA-TLive Discussion of ABX on StockTwitsMore Discussion on ABX-TLive Discussion of K on StockTwitsMore Discussion on K-TLive Discussion of Y on StockTwitsMore Discussion on Y-TMore Related to this StoryThe top five TSX rookie stocks of the yearCanada's 100 biggest companies by market capCanada's 100 biggest companies by revenue100 Canadian companies with the highest return on equityCanada's 50 biggest private companies |
