Does anyone think the Video Tape Rental Industry will survive? I've been following a company, West Coast Entertainment (WCEC, which is the 3rd largest video rental chain. After Blockbuster had problems, they they cancelled a bond offering and the shares have languished. I would like to learn how to value this company to determine whether I am missing something. The P/E is about 7, and the sales per share is about $8. They recently went public within the last year. The reason I'm interested in the company is that I like the Videosmith unit in the Boston area, which does as good if not better than Blockbuster. Also, the # 2 player in the industry, Holywood Entertainment trades at a p/e of 36. If anyone can give me some suggestions as to better value the stock, your assistance would be greatly appreciated. I am concerned as many value investors often are, thate there is some information or issue they have not looked at when reviewing a company.
