value pick. HELE has a solid Z-Score of 4.6 and a P-Scale rating of 6 out of 9. The stock sells at 75% of book value and just 7 times multiple earnings. The company has a good balance sheet with over $100 million in cash. Management is cutting lower-margin gross-margin product lines; making drastic reductions in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs; and paying down debt. The retail environment will continue to be difficult, but the company is optimistic that it can grow sales modestly and boost margins going forward and continue to generate cash in 2008.
