Chindex International, Inc. (CHDX)

CAPS Rating:
****

An American company operating in several healthcare markets in China, including Hong Kong. The Company now operates in two business segments: Healthcare Services division and Medical Products division.

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.

P/E ratio is higher than I like. Recently added debt of 40mil stinks but gives flexibility. China growth story overrated (IMHO). The right to distribute ISRG products makes up for all that. China pollution levels should help them stay needed.

The recent price plunge was due to "certain non-routine year-end adjustments as well as the interest charge related to the conversion of a JP Morgan convertible bond." Chindex is also suffering from the slow approval process in China for some new equipment it wants to sell, including the Davinci Surgical Robot system. This approval came last week and the price jumped 15% on the news. Management seems to be doing a very effective job. 3/30/08 quarterly revenue was up 40% over ther previous year. I think this company will grow substantially in the Chinese market and the stock price should be back in the upper 20's by mid 2009. Look for good earnings news in August and a strong jump to follow.

Foreigner-centric hospitals/clinics in Beijing and rumored new opennig coming in Guangzhou (150 beds!) to target wealthy local Chinese. If they can pull off the shift to local Chinese patient base they stand to do very well over the next 5 years.

China is on a roll-- but it is a slow one-- but in my view just enough to outperform.

This stock is one of the more trustworthy China stocks (as compared to Chinese oil stocks that seem 'manipulated' to me). The products are in demand and, well, slave labor is nothing if not efficient.

In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
