COMPUTER MODELLING GROUP $15.32 – Toronto symbol CMG

COMPUTER MODELLING GROUP $15.32 (Toronto symbol CMG; TSINetwork Rating: Speculative) (403- 531-1300; www.cmgroup.com; Shares outstanding: 37.8 million; Market cap: $579.1 million; Dividend yield: 2.9%) reports that its revenue fell 10.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2011, to $12.0 million from $13.3 million a year earlier.

Licence revenue rose to $10.9 million from $10.8 million, but that was offset by a 57.0% drop in consulting and professional-services revenue, to $1.1 million from $2.5 million. The company consulted on a few large, one-time projects a year ago. Earnings per share fell 7.7%, to $0.12 from $0.13.

Already a leader in complex heavy-oil and oil-sands simulations, Computer Modelling should profit as oil and gas producers continue to develop other unconventional sources, such as shale gas.

Computer Modelling is still a buy.
