The Company recycles used cooking oil and by-products from the beef, pork and poultry processing industries into useable products such as tallow, feed-grade fats, meat and bone meal, and hides. These products are sold to agricultural, leather as well as "oleo-chemical manufacturers around the world". In addition, the Company provides grease trap collection services and sells equipment to restaurants. This company is not in the"biodiesel" business exclusively, it's a solid company that makes money with a product others pay them to remove. Sounds like a win-win to me. Also, they're heading to the NYSE with more visiblity to more investors.

Talk about GREASED lightening, except for this lightning is going to go from the ground to the SKY when oil tops $80.00/Bar.

I held this one for about 13 months after it was featured in a Fool article. Who can resist "rrrretirrrement grrrease"? As far as I can tell it's overvalued with a lot of investors betting on the come. I took my 106% gain and left the grease pit when DAR's P/E passed 50. Sure they have a real chance to break into the emerging biofuel sector, but a lot of people seem to have forgotten that DAR cleans grease traps at present. I'll wait till it tumbles and get back in at a more sensible price.

The conference call for Q1 mentioned they have in inventory 1.5 Billion pounds of yellow grease. It takes 7.5 lbs of yellow grease to make a gallon of biodiesel. So math wizards, how many gallons of biodiesel can they produce and what's it work at say $2/gallon?

I've made the math and I got $400 millions.
The market capitalization is currently at $659 millions.

The conclusion is that the current valuation for this company is too low.

The key of this company is to understand that grease can be used in more profitable ways.
I do not discard a buyout to happen this year as in the conference call they mentioned that many company would like to use the grease (they explicitly say that they've been approached by more than 100 corps).
