In a bear market should trade under 30 (a conservative multiple of forward earnings). So it's overvalued for the current environment. Headed for a fall in the next leg of this bear market. Software isn't immune to a deep recession. So why is this still floating around at bull market prices?

We are going to keep spending a lot of money on war and security. Whoever makes that more efficient is going to be profitable.

Mantech emlployees have taught 3 of my military classes and have always performed very well and have been extremely knowledgeable regarding the subject matter. Their "product" is enhancing the militaries ability to fight. I realize that sounds vague but its only because it has to. They deal with sensitive subjects.

This company keeps posting record profits and revenues. With a part of a new 50 billion contract award in hand, they will keep moving forward with record numbers.

No viable business plan
Can't define its market and market share
Executive management dumped most stock and Chairman is still dumping
Secrecy and security alone is not a viable market for a public company

Magic selection, see how well the little book does

The company develops information technology and technical service solutions for various mission critical national security programs, which supports the intelligence, justice and homeland security departments of the U.S government. Their solutions are used in telecommunication networks; infrastructure and system integration efforts supporting the U.S armed forces and other U.S security departments spread across the world.
The intelligence and defense department has been contributing on an average 92% revenue for the last three years, thereby connecting the firm’s revenue flow to U.S government spending in the area of security and defense. The rest of the revenue is contributed by state agencies and commercial entities. Increased spending by U.S government to support troops in Iraq and Afghanistan along with revenue flow from the recently acquired Grey Hawk led to a 17% increase in net revenue. This increase is reflected in the 8% increase in the bottom line.
ManTech has only about 8% of its revenue exposed to commercial market and federal agency spending unlike its contributors, which has a higher percentage of exposure. Thus the recent political shift in the U.S government, resulting in capping of federal security spending, will not affect the company. Also, as all mission critical national security programs has been given a go ahead, the position of the company looks secure.
The spending pattern by the US govt. for defense needs has undergone a change with factors like data integration and information sharing taking centre stage. The onus is now on providing a reliable technical service backbone along with network centric warfare and relevant information support to troops. The U.S government spending in information systems and related areas is expected to reach $66.4 billion by 2007. ManTech has positioned itselves to be a better player in this field, with revenue growth expected at 10% for the next fiscal. These factors can enable the company to continue its upward journey in the coming year also.

This passage from the 2005 Annual Report makes the case for this investment better than I can: ?The protection of the homeland is a constant necessity and, unfortunately, the Global War on Terrorism is only in its early stages. Given our strong focus on defense, intelligence, national security and law enforcement markets, ManTech is uniquely positioned to support our government on all fronts. We believe this spending will continue to increase for the next several years, driven by the expansion of national defense and homeland security programs, the persistent need for sophisticated intelligence gathering and information sharing and an increased reliance on technology service providers. ManTech has the expertise, the skilled personnel and in many cases the unique technical solutions required to support these needs and we are well-positioned to maintain our growth trajectory.?
