Best company in downtrodden sector.
+ Net profit margin 23.31% (IND 3.86%).
+ Current Ratio 3.8 (IND 1.6).
+ ROA 8.52% (IND 2.45%)
- Normalized P/E 23 (IND 21.2) (but I'm putting less value on the P/E as a metric these days).

This may still be overvalued though. It was around 25 before the 2008 crash. Now it's around 40.
What do you think?

its an undervalued company that people don't pay attention to even though many great funds have a large percentage of their shares in their portfolio

Great low cost, popular programming = outstanding profits. I've wanted this for years, but never pulled the trigger. I think now is a reasonable entry point for a company going nowhere but up in the future.

Comon who doesn't watch a Discovery Channel show now and then? With the addition of other channels and now OWN, how can this be a bad pick? Has been oversold the past few weeks after a big run up = time to buy. has a healthy balance sheet, great cash flow, and earnings are expected to double by 2013, decent P/E. This is a no brainer.

want to see their more educational lineup of channels succeed, and I think they will - more devoted following - more unique and enduring content than typical sit-com or police drama

This network is different from the run of the mill network crap on TV. It has a nitch. I forget how many countries it channels programming to. Maybe 60. I also forget how many different languages it broadcasts in. Maybe 12 or more.

Is there anyone who does not like or does not watch Myth Busters?

This is a flawless, blue diamond of about 20 carats waiting to be discovered.

I dig it.

Industry leader and great innovative company! Soon Discovery Communications, Inc will bring 3D entertainment to homes! They are also working on a partnership with Hasbro and recently launched a partnership with Oprah Winfrey Network.

Company is also making big effotrs to increase intra-department efficiency (not good for employees but good for the company overall).

An undervalued steady stock with great assets. Not as exposed to ad spend as people think.

Technicals may be forming a bottom, but I don't like the cash position or the insider waffling. Macro concern: how much money will be spent on advertising next year?

Discovery is a step ahead of the Educational media. Going "Green" is an exciting new trend and they are in the lead.
