5yr avg ROE is 13.02, compared to 25.28 in the apparel industry, according to reuters. Operating margin 8.79, compared
to 16.84. This might be related to the fact that they didn´t used to sell a differentiated line of products. When you fall
into the basic goods category, price is what makes customers decide for one or the other. Fun Tees purchase could help them improve margins. I hope they are fun enough

Delta Apparel Inc. sells branded and private label apparel.....many of you are saying...AND?!

Well the AND is, they are a company with a simple business model, with a fat slice of inside ownership, with a pretty little dividend, AND some very shareholder friendly management.

Delta is in a business that's in an evergrowing market. These types of clothing styles are becoming more and more popular as this new generation moves toward the more casual, comfortable, look and feel of the clothes Delta has to offer.

I don't think this company is a one trick pony. I look for it to offer up some market smashing returns for at least a couple of decades.

So Go Long,

Fool On!!!
