CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company designs, manufactures, distributes and markets computer-numerically controlled metal-cutting lathes, machining centers, grinding machines, collets, chucks, indexing fixtures, and other industrial products.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Here's one straight from Ben Graham's playbook. HDNG, a manufacturer of metalworking equipment. It's Bridgeport brand name is recognized and respected all over the world. Take a look at the basics: Total Current Assets are $260.595 million, Total Liabilities are $104.073 million, and Total Shares Outstanding are 11.440 million. Net Current Asset Value Per Share, or NCAVPS, is (TCA-TL)/TSO. In this case, that comes to $13.68, just under current share price of $16.40. The kickers here are that the company's book value is $23.34, long term debt is a negligible $19.4 million, and EPS is improving and is projected to grow >10% per year for the next five years. I'll take a flyer on this one and say that Hardinge will outpace the S&P over the next year. This company is definitely a takeover target at its current market price. If a takeover doesn't materialize then it can continue to operate without any major worries. This is one stock with some nice upside and not much downside, a combination which makes it well worth the risk.
