M & F Worldwide Corp. (MFW)

M&F is a taped-together wad of unrelated businesses, but they're all profitable and dominate their respective markets. Check printing business is one of only two significant players in this space, they just merged two competing check printers into one operating unit (leaving one other outside competitor). It throws off mad cash and doesn't require much capital to run. Only issue is the decreasing demand for checks as people move to electronic payments, but check-based payments will never completely go away. Their financial services division isn't much of a factor to the bottom line, and the licorice-producer subsidiary is kinda stupid to tie into everything else, it's small profits need to be sold to some bigger player in the candy space. Also owns Scantron, you should be familiar with them if you've ever taken one of those fill-in-the-dots #2 pencil tests. Strongly embedded in the educational market.
