Brady Corp (BRC)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company is an international manufacturer and marketer of identification solutions and products which identify and protect premises, products and people.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Being a worker in healthcare, I can tell you this-- even if the blockbuster drugs and biotech billions never achieve anywhere near the levels of expectations built into them, there will be no let-up in the demand for labeling products. Labels, IDs, printers, scanners are everywhere. 3M & Zebra ar...More

Brady Corp sells it products on an international level, making it less susceptable to economic challenges in the US. Q1 FY08 results included increased sales, increased net income, increased EPS and increased cash flow. The company has done a good job of improving its bottom line, while continuing to acquire assets that compliment its business. It continues to improve shareholder value, authorizing an additional buyback of 1 million shares in March 08.


This is a financially sound company that should outperform the market if it can successfully integrate its acquisitions and continue to improve its bottom line.

Beat this Stock

Clicking "Beat this Stock!" will bring you to a company with a higher rating than the one you're currently viewing.

Even though CAPS shows only one- to five-star rankings, behind the scenes, all companies in CAPS have a distinct numerical ranking. In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
