The valuation is just comical. Market cap of $300M when you subtract out cash, no debt and P/FCF of 4 (closer to 1.5 when you subtract out cash), P/E of 5 (2 when you subtract out cash) and reasonable P/B and P/TB. Very cyclical, but poised to weather any storm. Potential growth with increasing smartphone competition and LED market expansion (CFL's have mercury, LED's last 20 years, so market will shift).

I just don't get why KLIC is so cheap. The fundamentals are very compelling; P/E 5.75, PEG 0.38, P/S 1.16, P/C 2.08, P/FCF 5.22, Zero Debt, 5-yr EPS 51%, 5-YR Sales 16.38%, Sales Q/Q 49%, while they are maintaining a gross margin of 46.5%. And despite these numbers they are currently trading at $12.30, but last July they were at $8.

For such a healthy and fundamentally strong company, especially in this tech recession these guys look like a great value, and hopefully not a value trap.

Tooling and equipment makes electronic assembly more cost effective. Cheap at the moment due to global slow down. Good financial strength, well run with staying power. 12.5% return on assets, 24% cash conversion from sales, and no debt. Although sales volume has taken a hit, they will be here with strength to take advantage of the rebound.
