Caraco Pharmaceutical Laboratories Ltd. (CPD)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing, marketing and distributing generic and private-label pharmaceuticals to the wholesalers, distributors, warehousing and non-warehousing chain drugstores and managed care providers.

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.

Rising star in small cap pharm generics. Needs to divest from SUN to soor, but on the right track.

The company's revenues and cash from operations have grown consistently for the past 3 years.


Contrary to TMF CAPS board, Yahoo shows the PE of the stock @ about 22 (confirmed with MSN and Google, so more likely correct), which does not appear too high given the fast growth on this one. However, their EPS is a little inflated, in that they didn't record any income tax expense in '07 (presumably due to the utilization of prior operating losses). This will probably be true for a year or two depending upon the size of these historical losses (with Retained Losses @ only $38 MM, and pre-tax earnings of $27 MM in '07, I assume only one more year).


Company has no debt on the books, $34 MM in cash and a market cap of only $450 MM, which leaves plenty of room for growth... or more importantly, a buy-out.


I also love that, even though the company's stock has had a bit of a run up in the past several years, there really isn't a significant amount of insider selling going on.

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