James, Eddy, Andrew & all, today's likely plunge in techstocks may be an exceptional opportunity to load up * CHEAP * on metrology toolset providers. Thank You James for digging up that list. I did my homework and calculated some ratios (PSR = Price to Sales and PE = Price / Earnings). In my calculations I took the LAST quarter of sales as calculation base and multiplied by 4 in order to get more current, "implicit" annual data because I thought this is a NON-seasonal business (unlike retailing, where You got the yearend / X-mas sales season).
Revenues (Mio.), Company, Ticker, PSR-Ratio, PE-Ratio $1031, KLA-Tencor, KLAC, 2.97, 13,5 $ 341, Bio-Rad, BIOA, 0.74, 19 $123, Keithley, KEI, 0,33, 15 $36, Nanometrics, NANO, 1.9, 13,5
See this ?? Keithley, Bio-Rad are Screaming Buys (PSR < 1) !!
Does anybody know how big is the electronics/metrology part of Keithley and BioRad as a percentage of its total business ??
