The Brink's Company (BCO)

CAPS Rating:

The Company conducts business in the security industry, principally through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Brink's, Incorporated and Brink's Home Security, Inc.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Recs 0 (BCO) aj350 (90.81) Submitted: 3/11/08 3:11 PM : Start Price: $64.80 BCO Score: 6.17 company is a cash flow machine, spin-off of more capital intensive BHS will bode well for the remaining Brink's which has seen faster revenue/operating income growth with less capex. you may even want to keep BHS. Most of its capex is for new installations of home security systems. Churn is quite high @ 8%+ which sucks - but they writeoff the capex that is wasted on cancelled accts. Most of their 90%+ of their capex is therefore assumed to be for incremental growth purposes - not a bad thing at all!! Trading at 8x FCF, Brink's can easily go uptowards 15-20x given international growth prospects/demand, while I expect BHS to trade at around 10-15x FCF depending on the state of the US economy when the shares are spun off.
