Worked there. They are very good at what they do. Sometimes Management needs to get out of being too structured. They need to think out of the box.
Their contracts are 2 to 5yrs. And yes there environment is competitive, but they have been in it for 50 yrs. Mike Lawrie came from Value Act as a partner. Is there a buy-out or turn around going on.

long term cash generator

Jamasony turned me on to this one. Very long-term support around $26, so not quite sure what to do if it broaches that. Also not quite sure why the market's dumping it like mad, given the strong earnings and recent dividend introduction / growth.
Definitely watching it here, may buy some for the Roth IRA once I'm more comfortable with it...

I believe Computer Sciences will bring in 166.67 points considering a 15% S&P performance.

This stock has been oversold and has been as high as $90.00 before current downturn.

This company has had some contractions in the past couple of years, and has had some major projects delayed (affecting timing revenue recognition). But I believe that it has been oversold, and the company is worth more than what it's trading for right now.

CSC is down 30% over the past six months after reporting disappointing earnings and weak guidance. One of the world's largest IT services firms, CSC runs essential IT processes and functions for governments and businesses. The U.S. government is CSCs biggest customer, making up 37% of its revenue in fiscal 2011.
It may seem ludicrous to purchase a company so dependent on the government, when every day Democrats and Republicans talk of throwing America under the bus. Still, the company is a cash cow, generating $900 million in free cash flow for the trailing 12 months ended April 1. That puts the firm's valuation at just more than times FCF. You rarely find solid companies trading that low.

"Managed Services" are the wave of the future. Alas.

Industry standards are changing drastically when thinking of intelligent sytems. Honda, Google, Microsoft, Apple - all of the major players are working on algorithms that can "think" for themselves. To ignore the growth in this industry is simply lacking intelligence.

Been around for decades. Well managed. Current share price is exceptionally low.
P/E (Trailing 12 mo.) 9.16x
EPS (Trailing 12 mo.) 5.297

CSC has recently gone through quite an increase and is approaching the all time high for it's stock prices. CSC's recent track of big wins in federal contracting and it's buying back of roughly $1 billion worth of stock have gone a long way towards then increase. Now, however, investors will sit back and wait to see this a real move towards a significant future.

Cyber security contractor with $30 million USAF contract and closing in on US Navy contract as well. Defending against cyber attacks is a large part of future defense spending worldwide.

Forward PE is a bit low while the EPS is strong. However, the cash and revenue seem pretty flat.
