Crocs, Inc. (CROX)

I hate those shoes.If you wear there shoes you obviously don't care about your self image lol

Anyone who expects them to be in business beyond 2010 is kidding themselves!

it's headed towards it book value of 3.42.

After that who knows.

yup

The only market these shoes sell well in is the Asian market, which is plagued with knock offs. I applaud their attempt to diversify their product line, however the shoes are still unappealing for the most part, and still carry a brand name plagued with "ugly."

Their main product is no longer in the growth stage, and the only thing that will save them is a genius marketing ploy. It's so hard for me to simply go short on a stock based on their product, since they ARE cutting costs, but I have to remain short on this one.

Not a fad anymore-new designs aren't selling

If this company has'nt taken off by now it's not happening.

(sidenote) I like the sandals.

No Thanks!

They were close to extinction before, but they made a remarkable comeback. Over the last two months, there stock has been relatively flat, in a trading range. The market rally since March has obviously helped this company's stock price. The expectation for a recovery in retail has made this company look like a good value play. Unfortunately, retail recovery will be dependent primarily on unemployment recovery, which I don't see happening soon. So that begs the question, does this company have enough capital to survive until unemployment improves? I don't think so and I think that this will become apparent within a year.

This company will not be in business in 1-2 years will sell out or go under.

Great product, but cheap knock-offs are just as good. Has the look of a fad that is winding down.

Crox is disproportionally high compared to the index, if you believe the index will rise Crox is coming down to get in step. In addition they have been unimaginaative in new product developement. Company designers seem to target the fad market instaed of funtional apparrel. I believe they are more fad than favorable.

Simply the fact that it is up over 150% in less than 90 days should be ringing alarm bells. The fact that the rally isn't really supported by any fundamentals is even scarier. Even worse is that the company's main product is no longer "in style" (not that I'm at all an expert in fashion...).

On top of that, the income statements frighten me. A -0.37 profit margin over the last 12 months? If I recall correctly, Crocs were actually selling quite well about a year ago. If the management couldn't turn a profit then, I don't have any faith in them recovering the company. Even their 3.10 five-year average profit margin is pretty terribly low.

No earnings for the foreseeable future.

While they have made an effort to update their designs, these designs have not brought in the buyers. It is hard to imagine how this company will be able to survive given the falling demand, the losses and the debt they carry. In the interest of full disclosure, I own a pair. :-)

reupping on this stinker.

crocs already hit its prime. all downhill from here

Why buy Crocs from Crocs, when you can buy Chinese knock off Crocs for 1/4 the price. Everywhere I go you can find knock off Crocs for sale.

They're not special or unique enough to warrant spending the money on. It's not like they are Prada Crocs. The knock offs are made of the same material, and same design.

I see more Old Navy flip-flops on people now than I see Crocs.

I think that they are going to have to diversify. The stock will eventually make it in the $1.50 - $2.00 range, and you will see them come out with a line of comfortable Crocs clothes for stay at home moms.

Terrible shoes. Tewwible
