DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. (TRAK)

CAPS Rating:
**

The Company is a provider of on-demand software, network and data solutions for the automotive retail industry in the United States.

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.

Recommendation from Desperado28. He says the software is CS101 caliber and very likely to be substituted out. Not off to an especially good start with this one but I trust Desperado.

This Company is going to be the next AOL(Remember Ted Turner). Like Dial-up Connection everyone needed it at the time to connect to the internet early days. Well Similar are DealerTrack Services , already some of there premium subscription products are being offered for free to dealers and as dealing continue to cut cost, items like DealerTrack subscription product will looses there value as Dealers look at the bottom line. Long term their technology will be overwhelmed with no cost or low cost ad driven software. RouteOne there main Competitor (which is owned By GM, Daimler Chrysler, Ford and Toyota) plans for a big push to encourage their Dealers to remove Dealertrack from their dealership after the Lawsuit among Dealertrack and RouteOne is over. : Federal District Court filings Case Number: 8:2007cv00215





Deletacks DMS (Dealer Management System) is their strongest asset Dealertrack has but Microsoft is already planning to enter that market, Microsoft states publicly that no code has been written, but there is info out there that they suggest they are within a year of product Beta testing. This will be last nail in the DealerTrack coffin. DealerTrack is also carrying and lot delinquent accounts as dealers refuse to pay for product they are not using, claiming they where not aware that dealertrack put them under 36 month contracts. Delinquency rate is off the chart. So there is my two Cents worth and it may DealerTrack Share price unless they change their business model soon

Weakness in auto demand coupled by a major integration problem will depress earnings for the next few years. Losing share to RouteOne will hurt business as well. DMS is a dog.

Having been in the finance dept for a car dealership for the past 6 years, I can honestly say they offer the best tools on the market. I can't imagine a time before dealertrack. They have revolutionized the approval process for those of us in the business.
