Firstly John, I can understand your enthusiasm for PPTI because it’s more than likely based on your in depth knowledge of the products it produces and how they currently compare to others in the market place. As a result, you believe that their superior performance, quality etc.. etc.. will, inevitably, lead to the financial prosperity of PPTI. That may (or may not) well be the result, however .... As the title of this Board suggests, this is all about VALUE stocks based, largely, on the CURRENT status of a company’s Financial Fundamentals. In my opinion, by no stretch of the imagination can one look at the current contents of PPTI’s financial statements and conclude that this is a Value stock. When should you return ? Well ... as Paul Senior stated, "...anybody can diddy-bop into the thread and mention any stock they want - it's an un-moderated thread." Hopefully, the next time we seriously consider PPTI, it will be, at least, because Turnover is increasing at a regular pace, EBITDA is no longer negative and Bottom Line is on a regular uptrend .... a healthy dividend payment to shareholders would certainly add to its attractiveness, IMO. .... And best wishes from me too ! |
