I took a look myself. MIKL 10K says that Papetti's is a producer of egg products, not eggs, and was doing over $300 million sales. (It
buys eggs.) The next 10Q said that MIKL paid $106 million counting
assumption of debt (which would be $137 million at today's MIKL stock price of $22). From a casual point of view I would rather own a value added producer than the producer of the commodity, except I recall that in this industry some of these processed products have not had good reception. In any case, it seems to me that MIKL paid less on a P/S basis than CALM is now selling for. (This does not change my investment perspective on CALM, but maybe I will have to be more patient than I thought.)
