MGP Ingredients, Inc. (MGPI)

CAPS Rating:
*

A fully integrated producer of certain ingredients and distillery products and has two reportable segments, ingredients and distillery products.

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.

The company has an excellent track record and a stong financial position. Ethanol currently has poor margins and the outlook for the future is cloudy. Downside seems limited compared to potential upside at this price.

THIS IS NOT AN ETHANOL STOCK- REPEAT NOT AN ETHANOL STOCK
This is their breakdown
1: Veggie Burgers, pastry mixes, food adhesives, meat fillers, that wheat filler you see in hot dog packets, salad dressings, ice cream toppings, pancake syrup, low fat solutions, meat substitutes, cereals, imitation cheese, candies, pizza crusts

2: Shampoos soaps creams, styling aids ALL PLANT BASED

3:Pet chewable items also, molded pet chews all healthy and digestible

4: Biobased polymers(which are now being pushed by the USDA to get preferential treatment) that make plastics, both hard and soft including, tables, credit cards, golf tees which are an alternative to oil based polymers.

5: Thier alcohol they produce is used for the highest quality gins and vodkas and cordials also used for food dyes, mouth washes, vinegar and cosmetics and pharmaceuticals

6: Last and least, they do produce ethanol, which is made of the stuff they cant use to make food grade alcohol. So basically their waste product is a little side business that some of these whacked out ETHANOL companies have tried to make their primary source of BUSINESS.

Im sticking with these guys.

NOW ONTO THEIR FINANCES
Not bad with a pretty good yield and actual profits.
