This stock's premium price is a mystery. Today, with a market cap of $1.6b, Investor's Bancorp:
- Pays no dividend
- Trades at 15.6x sales with a 103.5x P/E and is PEG'd at 8.3x
- Has inline margins of 21.7% Op, 14.7% Net
- Inline revenue of 10.1% TTM
- Returned 1.8% to Equity, .26% on Assets
- Has seen Operating Cash fall every year since '05
Saving grace is lack of debt and decent geography, but would need a monumental increase in earnings to justify anything close to today's price. Institutions control only 26.75% of float. This is a prime short candidate.
