Re:PFIN

I passed on this company when I saw that all of their tool/hardware subsidiaries were located in Florida. Their tool division sold/manufactured exclusively pneumatic tools which is a limited market. I was not sure if they were doing the actual manufacturing and/or repackaging Chinese knock off products.

I really did not do too much research into their customer base, brands, or future growth prospects. Tools & hardware is a very competitive business and product brand loyalty is important. I am not sure PFIN provides this. When I searched the subsidiary companies I found no Web site(s) showing their tools and/or hardware or other detail I wanted to see to confirm to me that they were selling a unique and value added product(s).

I may have missed something. PFIN may be an excellent value candidate but for me it does not fit my retail growth expectations.

Good luck w/ this one.
