Quarterly earnings have blown past the few analyst estimates that are out there for the past four quarters in a row. Even with a recent price run-up, the P/E ratio for this year is still at only 7.5. Very underfollowed and underappreciated company ...

great auto insurance company protected by Massachusetts insurance regulations. PE is a very low 6.34. As long as the state continues to regulate the industy and keep the national players out, SAFT will be in good shape.

Purchased a very small amount of this at $39.35. Great valuation. Undervalued on earnings miss, Mass state mandated rate cut.

Trying to catch a falling knife here (I never learn...) I see great value here, but the market and I don't always agree....
