when you back out the cash per share (after the offering) this stock is ridiculously cheap... and that is not even factoring in the nice growth rate.

JakilaTheHun is right. Looks great to me.

Conservative probable valuation = $18.60
Low-end probable valuation = $13.70
High-end probable valuation = $24.20

I plan to end this pick in the $17 - $20 range, but may modify this according to the market environment.

Fundamental indicators are strong. 22% net profit margin, 14% ROE, .2 debt ratio, lots of cash on hand, and they are forecasting an earnings increase for Q2. The PEG ratio is presently .41. And the insider holdings are presently greater than 50% (according to the latest annual report).

Working on linear drive motors for more diverse industries (freight trains, automotive specialty division, etc.).

On the downside are that the profit margins have inched down every year a bit as this company has increased in size, and R & D costs increasing YOY. All expected and if kept under control will not be an issue, but merit careful monitoring. It sounds like these issues have appropriate focus from management.

This is another one of the stocks picked by the investments class based upon fundamental and technical analysis. The idea to review this stock came from a Motley Fool article. Lets see if they are right...

Good cash on hand to cover debts, large insider ownership, almost 60%, tied to the auto industry which is struggling. I think over all they will recover strong once the auto makers start to recover with the rest of the economy.

Graham formula gives me a fair value of $13. Based on today's price of $5.31, this is a margin of safety of over 60%. Using 2005's earning for the fair value calculation gives me almost $11, which is still a margin of safety of over 50%.

It may not come back right away, but the balance sheet looks strong. The stock currently trades below its book value.

"(from etrade) develops, engineers, manufactures and sells an array of customized linear motors, motor/controller automation systems, automobile specialty micro-motors, and other special motors (end quote)." Right now the automotive industry is in flux. On the one hand you have a lot of trepidation in the US market, but in the exploding asian economies (where they're still building roads!) we may be at the early stages of a renassaince (sp?). There is always risk no matter what. This stock, like most, has been beaten down this year, and now I think is the time to pick it for CAPS.

The numbers. Excellent Gross, Operating and Profit Margins...49.5, 36.2, and 25.8 respectively. Very solid ROE of 26%.

It's running a very efficient business.
