This stock has been beaten down by a negative report that was totally unfounded. The author profited from some put options he had on the stock. It is well off of it's 52-week high and with 20 consecutive quarters of increasing profit, it is still trading a P/E ratio of 16.86.

It is true the author profited. However, their accounting firm has quit them, they are losing board members due to fraudulent credentials, and their structure is very much like a pyramid scheme. There are now reports that the FBI is investigating, though Usana denies this.Investigations by themselves don't mean much. They could be found innocent of any suspicions. But when your board members are frauds, your founder renounces his citizenship to live in a tax haven, and your accounting firm quits you, then something is wrong.
