oversold and the concesis #'s are moving dramatically higher

Interesting turnaround story. I was never a huge fan, but tons of people were, and still are. I think they learned valuable lessons about expanding too quickly, and now their balance sheet looks better and better every qtr. Debt is now minimal, ROE is up over 20%, PEG is under 1, Current ration almost 2, and P/S is hoving marginally above 1. At $7 not a ton of risk to take a flyer on this one I think. I think it could easily trade above $10 in the next 12-18 months.

Their business has holes in it.

KKD has solidified it's balance sheet and is setting itself up to be bought by one of the growing coffee houses - GMCR. I see GMCR acquing KKD in the future to expand it's empire going forward. Go LONG KKD!

I worked with Jim Morgan at Interstate/Johnson Lane for years. Believe me; He is a very smart man. He is one of the smartest CEO's on Wall Street today. Len Holliday lenholliday@yahoo.com 864-940-2470

The 25% share gain following KKD's Q1 earnings announcement was not a flash in the plan. They've downsized and transformed their operations, have a business model that now works and are poised for significant, profitable growth.

It has been on a tear, and has fantastic projected growth. I think all the bad times might well be behind it. It still has fantastic brand awareness, and an excellent product.

donuts are not really a big priority when the house is getting repoed and you haven't had a job in a few years....the money is going to go to places that multitask a bit more..and this is a one trick pony....retail is in a bit of a bubble and the good earnings are unsustainable going forward...and they have a P/E of over 50 .........

Best darn donuts in the world--just completely love their product & hope they come back strong

Krispy Kreme is feeling stale as a day old donut to me these days. Yeah, we all like 'em hot, but inevitably the partially hydrogenated selections eventually clog the arteries while coating the roof of ones mouth-- and something about that feels SO LAST millennium.

This company is making a turn-around. Going global certainly helps. Last time I saw a KKD franchisee in Osaka, Japan, the line was long and people were buying boxes of doughnuts with smiles on their faces. In a market that is dominated by Mister Donut, this speaks volumes.

How many stocks can boast at tripling their value within 18 months. I expect it to double from its current value. It has profited now for 3 quarters? I think it is surviving and only positive things can happen. It has learned from its mistakes and people still want what it has to offer. I do, too. Hot doughnuts that melt in your mouth.

After five years in Donut hell, KKD may actually be a comeback story. They have been in the green the last two quarters, even beating street estimates in their current report. They've closed a raft of stores, renewed deals with many of the supermarkets they let go before, and abandoned the "trendier" flings like oatmeal "healthy donuts that cost them so much before. While they are not dropping growth plans, they are presently refocusing on recapturing their geographic base in the South rather than throwing themselves against the Dunkin Donuts brick walls to the north. And they have even learned how to do accounting. While I cannot see them rising to the honey-glazed bubbles days of 22 dollars a share, doubling is not out of the realm of possibility. They could also be taken over, since their capitalization is sufficiently bite-sized at this point to make them attractive to a deep-pocketed chain who could use the sugar-high from acquiring this iconic brand,
