Carters seems to make virtually all the reasonably priced baby clothes we ever buy. Even private labels from Walmart (Child of mine) is "by Carters".

This company seems to have good September quarters every year, but do less well in the other quarters. But looking at results on a year-over-year rather than quarter-over-quarter basis might be advisable with this outfit. It is a retailer, after all.

Mr. Market is certainly suspicious, while overly exhuberant at times. Clearly there is a lot of market potential for my new friend, Psychiatric Solutions, PSYS who also dropped 25% today. Carter's announced that they were delaying their quarterly filings by about two weeks and Mr. Market hits them with a 28% share price decline. No questions asked, SELL, SELL, SELL, must be something Madoffish going on! As a clothing store for babies and small children, I would have questioned Carter's valuation at $29 per share, but Carter's has 253 Carters and 165 OshKosh outlet stores and has some of the best recognition brands. Births are up the past decade and while I do know we are in a recession where recycled clothing will increase, grammies, aunties, and baby showers still thrive with each new birth. With a history of strong management effectiveness, this latest filing delay caused by questions on valuing margin for wholesale customers, is unlikely in my mind to be anything near as serious as Mr. Market has penalized them. Debt in check, inventory a little high, balanced against upcoming Christmas season, and I believe, by gosh, that Carter's will come out of this in good shape.
