Amtech Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:ASYS)

trading at very low multiples (p/sales, p/tangible book, price/FCF, p/e), cash on hand, no debt, looks oversold and good value...

Got the idea to look at this one from dragonLZ. Did my 15 minutes of DD and liked what I saw...

If the macro pictures turns on me here I am screwed but if we resume the rally this think should bounce in the near term.

scores 100 each for growth and value per sabrient systems

Low price to tangible book, sales and eps growing ttm

Generating FCF / OE, DSO coming down, FCF out-pacing NI, Sales and Earning growing at a a healthy clip, and TTM OE divided by Market cap is at about 20%. Looks cheap (and profitable).

Finviz, high EPS projections, low PEG for small caps.

Despite what some might think, solar is going to be a big part of the future and it will require the best tools to be competitive. ASYS has t he best tools.

too much discounted

Very bullish here! # 1 reason is CFO bought shares on the open market a few days ago. CFOs of small companies usually don't get paid a whole lot, so this is a very strong signal IMHO. In addition, the balance sheet is amazing - $6 per share in cash (more than 50% of market cap), EV/EBITDA is below 1! P/E ratio is 4, forward P/E is 7. These ratios might sometimes indicate a value trap, but I don't think this is the case here with the CFO buy. Looking at the trend from the past few quarters of income statements and balance sheet numbers, it looks very positive.

P/E is 4, and this is a growth stock, so called. OK, it supplies to the solar industry, but at this price, the market is saying that solar is as gone as spats, men's sock garters, kerosene lamps, buggy whips and back-collar studs. This is crazy! I would wait for the technical turnaround, but I'd forget, so I'm lighting this candle today.

Incredible growth potential here. Has been crushing esitmates recently and I think they will continue to do so for a while. Looking for an entry point between $15-16

Everything is just right for this stock, price, markets and management and it should just keep rising . Get is now for the fast and money making ride. Plenty of cash ahead, fun all the way with no crash. Should double each year for next two years then look at it close for another ride up, will be shooting fireworks at end of this ride. Happy flight.

Found off of modified Greenblatt Screen: Small Cap, Positive Earnings Surprise in the last 90 days, High ROC (based on EBIT / NWC+NFA) > 25%, and High Earnings Yield (EBIT / Enterprise Value) > 10%. Looks good, and cheap!

solar will grow exponentially in next decade and asys will provide the stuff to make the panels. recent insider purchases.

Long watchlist

Great fundamentals, massive growth sector (solar), machine tools rather commodity (panels) provider. What's not to like?

Superb investment for 2011.

PEG extremely low which is based on estimates of revenue and EPS that will be totally crushed by the actuals.

$100 dollar stock in a couple of years

oil price on the rise. The push for greener energy. good aquisitions and another 32 million $ order Feb 2011

Solar is hear to stay and even though Solar can only currently exist via subsidies prices will come down. ASYS is a good way to diversify in solar and invest in a small cap at the same time. Plus, ASYS's china customers should have a help in their growth.
