Has eliminated long term debt. Sales are expanding.

Recessions often kill discretionary spending, but this rarely applies to candy. This was true during the great depression too.

Small company, no debt, and a growing dividend. My kind of stock!

The Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory is a specialty dessert store generally located in malls. As a personal buyer of the product I have to say they produce top quality desserts. From a financial perspective their growth has been steady and strong, their financials are solid, they are paying out a dividend now and technically they are showing a rounding base on the 5 year chart. I can see them solidly heading higher from here.

This company is in deep trouble. 50% of their franchisees are struggling or failing and managements commitment to the franchise system is doubtful. They own very few company stores which is indicative of managements lack of confidence in the business model. They are being out-competed in every retail venue in which they have stores. RMCF's same store sales and same stores poundage have been negative quarter after quarter and year after year for several years now. Store closings have accelerated and store openings have decelerated.

Additionally, some members of RMCF's BOD have questionable pasts including one(Clyde Engle) who has even spent some time in jail.

More presence at airports puts the company's products in front of consumers at a location where they are more likely to buy (outside of a holiday period).
