Shares currently trade below L3Y historical median ranges and present attractive risk/ reward given the company’s expectations of a strong year of growth (i.e., new investments) and positive developments in the portfolio. 30.00 28.00 1200 900 600 300 M A M J Close J 2014 A S O N D J 2015 F M Rel.

We note several changes in the company and the stock over the last three months that in our view, positively shifts risk/reward. More specifically: • Management provided added clarity into KMH Cardiology’s revenue deferrals from the company – “…We expect a resolution over the next few months.” • A doubling of new investment pipeline which could see Alaris closing on more than 3-4 new partners previously indicated this year. This would imply Alaris may meet and/or exceed our forecasted run rate of $180MM/year of net new investments. • Strong +5.5% y/y organic growth of portfolio distributions in 2014. • Share prices are down 14% over the past three months – significantly more than we expected – and now trade at 17.6x 2015E P/E and 1.9x P/BV, below L3Y historical median trading values of 19.8x and 2.01x, respectively. Net/net, a call on valuation in consideration of the above: We believe recent share price weakness provides an attractive entry point. All values in CAD unless otherwise noted. FQ4/14 results largely in line: Total investment income of $19.2MM, was slightly below our estimate of $20.0MM. Partner income was $18.9MM, in line with consensus of $19.0MM. NOI per share was $0.46, below our forecasted $0.48, but above consensus of $0.43. First Glance Notes First Quantum Minerals Ltd.(TSX: FM; 13.57; LSE: FQM) Fraser Phillips, P.Eng.

The changes are effective at the end of the period. With the tax change in Zambia and the drop in commodity prices, First Quantum had indicated with its Q4/14 results that it would breach its net debt/ EBITDA covenant and had been seeking covenant relief from its lenders, which it expected by March. First Quantum remains compliant with all existing finance covenants currently and expects to remain compliant with the new covenants at the next covenant test date of March 31, 2015. M Rel.

Outperform Despite challenging Q4/14 results; well positioned to leverage 2015 opportunities • Q4/14 EBITDAR below on higher expenses. HNZ reported Q4/14 EBITDAR at $1.8MM, well below our $9.6MM estimate. Revenues were in line at $42MM (RBC at $42.5MM), with the variance the result of higher operating expenses. While we had anticipated more aggressive cost reductions in relation to the completion of the Afghanistan military contract, we do expect a period of higher expense variance as HNZ balances new growth opportunities with softer industry demand. • Strong financial and operating position. While quarterly results came in below, HNZ produced FCF of $2.4MM and $28.5MM in Q4/14 and 2014, respectively. HNZ remains in a very strong financial position with no outstanding debt, $14MM in cash, and positive working capital of $49MM. • Looking over the valley. While management noted that HNZ is likely to face headwinds in 2015, current market conditions were leading to increased tender activity for offshore production support contracts. We will be looking for additional colour on the call as to the potential market opportunity for HNZ, both from a new contract and acquisition perspective. • Assessment: Positive thesis intact. Should the HNZ shares pull back following Q4/14 results, we recommend accumulation for longer-term investors. While market headwinds have developed, operational discipline and low debt levels position HNZ to effectively navigate current market conditions, while setting the stage to achieve an inflection in EBITDAR growth in 2016. • Conference call details: 11:00am (EST) at 1-855-859-2056.

We expect solid results, and anticipate that investor focus will shift to next FY and the longer-term perspective. We continue to see solid brands and product portfolio, and expect more consistent financial performance in F2016E.

M • Wrapping up a (very) back-end weighted year: Driven by several product launches, we forecast FQ4 revenue of $1.02B (+12.6% Y/Y), in-line with consensus $1.03B. On this, we anticipate Adj. EBITDA increases 72% to $182MM, and Adj. EPS increases 96% to $0.80, roughly in-line with consensus of $180MM and $0.79, respectively. • Looking ahead – using ‘lessons learned’ in F2015 to offer initial F2016E guidance: We may see some conservatism in F2016E outlook, increasing the likelihood of achieving/beating guidance. We also believe it would be prudent to provide a more detailed view on the expected quarterly progression of revenue and earnings through the year – a key investor issue in F2015E. • F2016E looks positive, with Y/Y increases largely coming in the first half of the year: We forecast revenue increases 4.2% Y/Y to $3.47B, Adj. EBITDA increases 17.0% to $473MM, and Adj. EPS increases 21.3% to $1.78. • On the surface, our forecasted increase in EBITDA seems a steep challenge. However, about half of this increase reflects the avoidance of one-time F2015 factors. 5 • We also expect the seasonal pattern to normalize in F2016E, meaning the first half of the year should see significantly higher revenue and earnings Y/Y. • Attractive risk/reward despite F2015 challenges: Looking ahead, we expect revenue to grow at a 5% CAGR F2015-2018E, driving an 11% EBITDA and 16% EPS CAGR. With this, we view DOO’s trading multiples as attractive - 7.1x C2016E EBITDA and 11.4x EPS, a significant discount to Polaris at 9.3x and 16.7x, respectively.

Management prefers to gain a larger project contribution with existing clients vs. bidding on more 1 off projects to gain market share. This direction ties in with CAM focus on improving margin, particularly in expansion cycle co is now seeing. • Significant backlog to drive operating leverage, higher margin. CAM ended 2014 with backlog at $1B, at current USD FX this is $1.1B. Co sees ability to generate ~9% EBITDA on careful attention to project execution as well as stronger volumes driving SG&A down as a % of sales. We have slightly adjusted our EBITDA margin up in F16 closer to 9% from 8.5% previously). • Balance sheet and FCF. CAM does have $69M in convertible debentures (at $12/ share) due in October 2015, management is evaluating refinancing in the case of repayment but these are currently in the money and hence likely to convert. We have adjusted our estimates to reflect CAM debentures now "in the money" with the share dilution and debt repayment. We expect CAM to generate ~$25M of FCF in F15 and co sees its current additional borrowing capacity of $140M as sufficient to finance its working capital and growth needs.

At first glance, the new framework is largely consistent with the proposals put forward by the CRTC in its August 2014 working document and is consistent with what we had expected. For investors, the key decisions are: (i) a low-cost maximum $25 "entrylevel" basic package (with no children’s services included); (ii) pick-and-pay and small packages in addition to the "status quo"; (iii) the allowing of volume and penetration-based rate cards with limitations; and (iv) the phasing out of access rights and introducing a "1:1 ratio" for vertically integrated BDUs. For more detail, please see our industry report titled “CRTC Releases Unbundling Framework for Television”. • Corus has significant exposure. We believe the earnings of the English-language, specialty broadcasters are most exposed to this new framework reflecting the likelihood of: (i) lower channel penetration including some channel failure; (ii) 6 the loss of affiliate fees, ratings, and advertising; and (iii) higher promotional costs. Mitigating factors could include higher channel pricing, the resilience of strong brands, any re-allocation of household entertainment budgets between channels, higher advertising rates for popular channels, and a potential easing in the rate of cord-cutting given greater packaging flexibility. Corus has the highest exposure within our coverage, with television broadcasting accounting for ~68% of total revenue in F2016E. Our analysis points to NAV downside as high as -20% and -30% under our Impactful and Disruptive scenarios, respectively.

For more detail, please see our industry report titled “CRTC Releases Unbundling Framework for Television”. • Some headwinds but exposure is manageable. We believe the new framework is directionally negative for content (71% of DHX revenue in F2016E including 20% production) given the likelihood of lower broadcaster and BDU funding. However, mitigating factors include the opportunity to produce and distribute content globally to a growing pool of OTT buyers. In our view, stronger headwinds relate to television broadcasting (29% of DHX revenue in F2016E), reflecting the likelihood of: (i) lower channel penetration; (ii) loss of affiliate fees, ratings, and advertising; and (iii) higher promotional costs. Mitigating factors could include higher channel pricing, the resilience of strong brands, re-allocation of household entertainment budgets between channels, and a potential easing of cord-cutting given greater packaging flexibility.We see mid-to-high single-digit NAV downside under our impactful and disruptive scenarios. Rating: Price Target: 14MAR14 - 06MAR15 20.00 Sector Perform 19.00 Q4/14 Results: Mix fluctuations may indicate increasing reimbursement pressures The Q4 results fell below expectations due to the normal fluctuations in payor/case mix. Recall, Q3 was stronger than anticipated for the same reasons. That said, Q4 typically has the lowest proportion of low margin cases and may reflect increasing reimbursement pressures.

The company also saw a $1.3MM decline in e-health incentive payments. • EBITDA declined on mix as well. Total EBITDA was $30.5MM vs. $32.1MM last year, our $31.5MM forecast and consensus of $32.6MM (ThomsonONE: 4 analysts, range $30.9-33.9MM). EBITDA ex-minority interests decreased to $18.2MM (20.8% margin) from $18.5MM (20.6% margin) last year and was ahead of our $17.2MM estimate. The aforementioned shifts in payor/case mix negatively affected EBITDA. • Distributable cash of C$12.9MM (C$0.41/sh) excluding FX. Distributable cash ex-FX was C$12.9MM (C$0.41/sh) vs. our C$14.7MM estimate (C$0.47/sh) and C$13.7MM (C$0.44/sh) last year. The payout ratio was 68.4% ex-FX for the quarter vs. our 59.8% forecast and 64.2% last year. • Attractive holding for yield-oriented investors. Given the stable cash flows, cash reserves, and organic growth opportunities due to an aging population and higher quality of care rankings relative to its peers, Medical Facilities, in our opinion, remains an attractive alternative for yield (currently ~6.5%) oriented investors. We are monitoring reimbursement headwinds carefully, but the dividend appears secure considering the payout ratio was ~81% in 2014 and the continued strength of the US dollar.

We also view POW and PWF as the better way to gain exposure to GWO and IGM (vs. owning GWO and IGM separately). Silver Wheaton Corp.(NYSE: SLW; 19.01; TSX: SLW) Rating: Price Target: Outperform 30.00 Solid cash flow from a high quality portfolio Silver Wheaton is well positioned to provide investors with solid cash flow given a portfolio backed by low cost and relatively long life assets. Although the company's share price has come under pressure on the back of the recent equity offering and Salobo deal, we believe the pull-back provides investors with an attractive entry point. Solid cash flow backed by portfolio of low cost, long life assets • With cornerstone streams on San Dimas, Penasquito and Salobo, Silver Wheaton's cash flow is backed by a portfolio of high-quality operations with long 9 52 WEEKS 14MAR14 - 06MAR15 26.00 24.00 mine lives. As outlined by Silver Wheaton, over 85% of revenue currently comes from operations in the 1st half of their respective industry cost curves.

M • Silver equivalent sales are forecast to increase to 43.5 Moz in 2017 from 32.9 Moz in 2014, implying a 3-year per share CAGR of 6%. Over this period, all-in costs (including interest payments) are expected to average $5.74/oz implying an allin margin of ~65% based on spot metal prices. • Growth is expected to be driven by the start-up of Constancia, ongoing rampup of Salobo as well as higher output at San Dimas and Penaquito. Reduction of the gold stream at 777 (due to satisfaction of Constancia completion test) and expiry of the silver stream agreement at Cozamin are expected to partially offset these gains. Salobo deal enhances long-term optionality • The acquisition of a second 25% gold stream on Vale's low cost Salobo copper mine significantly enhances Silver Wheaton's underlying optionality given the potential to participate in multiple price cycles over a 45+ year mine life, future exploration success and possible operational enhancements. Although both transactions were completed at similar implied spot IRRs (~4%), we believe the second deal comes at a more opportunistic time in the current cycle. Industry Comments Drew McReynolds, CFA, CA (Analyst) (416) 842-3805; [email protected] Canadian Telecommunications Services Jie He (Associate) 416 842 4123; [email protected] • Most important decision of the 'Let's Talk TV' review largely in line with expectations. The CRTC released its widely anticipated decision regarding consumer choice and flexibility (i.e., channel unbundling) in the Canadian television industry. From an investor perspective, this decision is the most important one coming out of the ‘Let’s Talk TV’ review. At first glance, the new framework is largely consistent with the proposals put forward by the CRTC in its August 2014 working document and is consistent with what we had expected. • For distributors, the earnings impact should be manageable. We believe the earnings impact on the telecom operators should be manageable reflecting: (i) an effective Internet hedge to mitigate the loss of television distribution EBITDA; (ii) limited NAV exposure to television broadcasting, which in our view, is the segment that will be most exposed within the current television ecosystem; and (iii) an existing unbundled television regime for Quebec-based operators. • Multiple compression: An illustrative scenario analysis. Our analysis examines four scenarios – benign, mild, impactful and disruptive – with each scenario characterizing the magnitude of the potential impact. Shaw is the only company among the telecom operators where we could see a material high-single digit NAV impact but only under the disruptive scenario.

Total freight volumes transported by the Class 1 railroads increased +1%Y/Y in the week ending March 14th as continued strong volume gains by CNR and CP were tempered by flat carloads in the U.S. From a commodity perspective, singledigit volume gains across most segments was offset by a -5%Y/Y decline in coal traffic and an -8%Y/Y drop in both petroleum products and non-metallic minerals shipments. • Operating statistics hold steady. Average train velocity reported by the Class 1 railroads (excluding CP) declined -1%W/W to 22.7Mph with all carriers reporting flat or lower train speeds compared to Week 9. Average terminal dwell for this group improved modestly (2%W/W) to 25.7hrs with all rails (excluding UNP) posting a sequential improvement in dwell time.

We believe the earnings of the English-language, specialty broadcasters are most exposed within the current television ecosystem to this new framework reflecting the likelihood of: (i) lower channel penetration including some channel failure; (ii) the loss of affiliate fees, ratings, and advertising; and (iii) higher promotional costs.Corus has the greatest exposure among the publicly traded broadcasters with television broadcasting accounting for 75% of enterprise value, followed by TVA Group (49%) and DHX (18%). • Multiple compression: An illustrative scenario analysis. Our analysis examines four scenarios – benign, mild, impactful and disruptive – with each scenario characterizing the magnitude of the potential impact. Corus faces the highest risk of material NAV impact. DHX could see high-single digit NAV erosion but only under the disruptive scenario. Finally, we believe the impact for TVA should be modest given existing channel flexibility in the Quebec market.

We continue to view the recent 12-month breakout by the small-cap indexes as a bullish resolution to the macro headwinds that overhung equities through 2014. Sentiments surveys vary widely, but the recent decline in bullish sentiment could/should support further upside in equities. • Despite Wednesday’s Fed related sector ‘volatility’, we continue to see many of the same group themes reaccelerating/emerging notably in the Healthcare, Technology, Transports and select Discretionary sector. In contrast we view rebounds in many of the Resource/Energy areas as counter-trend, multi-week, oversold rebounds rather than the beginning of multi-month/quarter uptrends. • IDEAS - (+) Healthcare – Leadership intact, accelerating with more Biotech (REGN, AMGN, CELG, ALXN), Pharma (BMY, LLY, MYL, PRGO) and Hospitals (UHS, LPNT) emerging/accelerating from 3-6+ month trading ranges WITH relative performance leading. (+) Technology – Software (ACIW, CRM, CDNS, ANSS, FTNT, ORCL), Internet (FB, AKAM), Data Processors (GPN, JKHY) and select Semis related (ADI, SLAB) building leadership while PC related themes test next support. • (+) Transports – Leadership accelerating – Airlines (JBLU leads DAL emerging), Truckers emerging: ODFL, R, WERN, JBHT. • (+) Discretionary – Accelerating ideas include NKE, UA, MAR, HOT, M, while GPS is showing early signs of bottoming. • (=) Bond Proxies – Rebound continues, notably REITs: AVB, AIV, BXP, SPG • (-) Staples – Beverages remain in weak relative performance trends: KO, PEP. (-) Chemicals/Fertilizers – Despite becoming ‘oversold’, relative performance trends remain weak: ARG, PPG, FMC, MON 12 Required disclosures Non-U.S. analyst disclosure Paul Hissey;Cameron Klutke;Steve Arthur;Ben Holton;Anthony Jin;Derek Spronck;Walter Spracklin;Douglas Miehm;Fred Garcia;Sara O'Brien;Juliane Szeto;Geoffrey Kwan;Charan Sanghera;Fraser Phillips;Steve Bristo;Thomas Klein;Dan Rollins;Mark Mihaljevic;Erin Lytollis;Victoria McCulloch;Nathan Piper;Haydn Rodgers;Al Stanton;Adam Naughton;Haran Posner;Drew McReynolds;Jie He (i) are not registered/qualified as research analysts with the NYSE and/or FINRA and (ii) may not be associated persons of the RBC Capital Markets, LLC and therefore may not be subject to FINRA Rule 2711 and NYSE Rule 472 restrictions on communications with a subject company, public appearances and trading securities held by a research analyst account.

Distribution of ratings For the purpose of ratings distributions, regulatory rules require member firms to assign ratings to one of three rating categories - Buy, Hold/Neutral, or Sell - regardless of a firm's own rating categories. Although RBC Capital Markets' ratings of Top Pick(TP)/ Outperform (O), Sector Perform (SP), and Underperform (U) most closely correspond to Buy, Hold/Neutral and Sell, respectively, the meanings are not the same because our ratings are determined on a relative basis (as described below).

Dissemination of research and short-term trade ideas RBC Capital Markets endeavors to make all reasonable efforts to provide research simultaneously to all eligible clients, having regard to local time zones in overseas jurisdictions. RBC Capital Markets' equity research is posted to our proprietary website to ensure eligible clients receive coverage initiations and changes in ratings, targets and opinions in a timely manner. Additional distribution may be done by the sales personnel via email, fax, or other electronic means, or regular mail. Clients may also receive our research via third party vendors. RBC Capital Markets also provides eligible clients with access to SPARC on the Firms proprietary INSIGHT website, via email and via third-party vendors. SPARC contains market color and commentary regarding subject companies on which the Firm currently provides equity research coverage. Research Analysts may, from time to time, include short-term trade ideas in research reports and / or in SPARC. A short-term trade idea offers a short-term view on 13 how a security may trade, based on market and trading events, and the resulting trading opportunity that may be available. A short-term trade idea may differ from the price targets and recommendations in our published research reports reflecting the research analyst's views of the longer-term (one year) prospects of the subject company, as a result of the differing time horizons, methodologies and/or other factors. Thus, it is possible that a subject company's common equity that is considered a long-term 'Sector Perform' or even an 'Underperform' might present a short-term buying opportunity as a result of temporary selling pressure in the market; conversely, a subject company's common equity rated a long-term 'Outperform' could be considered susceptible to a short-term downward price correction. Short-term trade ideas are not ratings, nor are they part of any ratings system, and the firm generally does not intend, nor undertakes any obligation, to maintain or update short-term trade ideas. Short-term trade ideas may not be suitable for all investors and have not been tailored to individual investor circumstances and objectives, and investors should make their own independent decisions regarding any securities or strategies discussed herein.
