This met a high level screen to indicate a buy and strong outperform against its peers (other tickers in its industry). My 1st version of this spreadsheet devles deep into the company's balnace sheet and recent income statements, combined with other relevant price data for the company including insider/institutional holdings, short interest, debt levels, etc.
Testing capabilities of this 1st version of my automated, valuation spreadhseet matched with my personal criteria and see how it holds up.

Let us assume for a minute that the company won't grow at all in the future. It is trading at ~4x working capital, and about 2x book. Not bad for a technology company. Then it is trading at 7x Q3 earnings (about 10x TTM). Most tech stocks trade at 15-25x earnings.
If this looks undervalued without growth imagine what it will look like with it. Long term EPS growth expectations are roughly 13%.
Add in that Christmas sales are just around the corner and I think we have ourselves a winner.

Garmin is an excellent company that's exceptionally well priced right now.
1. Trading at a 9.8 P/E for a tech company
2. Excellent liquidity with current/quick ratio well above two
3. Improving margins
Yes, we know, the Nuviphone will have a hard if not impossible time competing against products such as the iPhone, Droid, HTC, Storm, did I mention iPhone? However, we cannot ignore the fundamentals with Garmin. They're still producing excellent products. As of now, smartphones will be unable to fully replace the functionality and features of an actual GPS unit.

This company is well diversified in marine, aviation, auto, and outdoor GPS. Even if phone sales break even, they will continue to grow. International phone sales will likely be better than USA. Recent huge drop not justified without knowing earnings and guidance, due out next week.

Leader in GPS systems. GPS will become standard in every car.

Company has great products in a sector with over average growth perspectives
Recs
They have a good team in place which reads the market well and is responding to it in a timely and effective manner. Actions currently being taken by the management (M&A, downsizing, repositioning themselves for new business climate) will benefit the company in the long run. Market place is currently pricing this stock below their long term potential. Coming shake out in GPS market will benefit Garmin greatly.
Recs
With a solid platform to grow into the future.

Excellent products, good support, strong market.

Everyone needs a Garmin

ROI is still near 30% and is higher than it was 5 years ago, book value has increased ech year for the last 11 years, free cash flow keeps increasing as well.

PEG = 1.12

Good price to earnings, appears to be comming off the bottom, and a well run company. Many feel GPS is Gamins main product, but Garmin has been a leader in Cockpit avionics long before they did anything with GPS.
