Bally Technologies, Inc. (BYI)

CAPS Rating:
***

The Company designs, manufactures, assembles and distributes technology based products to commercial gaming markets.

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 players 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.

No filings in over a year, they warned that margins are not going to hit their targets for the year. There seems to be a lot of optomism that things are getting better but this company has a habit of disapointing.

I like this stock because I think they are well positioned for the virtual reality gaming explosion soon to come.





Not only that, but while this stocks price has increased by just over 50% this year I don't think the market has yet priced in the new levels of profitability. The increase shown in the first quarter of 08' was 36% more sales AND 3 TIMES more profitability. That makes a world of difference.





Basically this company got 36% bigger and 3 times more profitable over night and the stock price went up only 52%.





Now lets look at the EPS projections:





1 year: 28.1%


5 year: 30%





But wait there's more...





This company has a very nice return on equity (42%) and an asset turnover of 1. Combine all that with the longevity and durability of this technology company and I am willing to put my money where my mouth is. (or at least my CAPS rating)

Strong market position so well placed for the long-term, but inevitably sentiment is going to be poor over the shorter-term given the falling casino attendances.
