Arbitron's panic when the race card was played is predictable in today's politically correct environment. It has created a great entry point for the investor. The People Meter technology is a no-brainer for an industry that still is using an antiquated dairy method for collecting listener data.

RoE of 45.01% is a great value itself.

RoA of 23.18% is one of the leading values for industry. P/E is high, but there is no debt and EPS is fine.

Next earnings date is in 10 days (on July 19th) - that'd be quite a benchmark.

If then the rise keeps going on, it's a safe long-term bet.

Seems like a good one for the long term. I would prefer to buy on a dip, but we shall see...
