FWIW-I've had FARM on my watch list for a long time. I'm glad I never pulled the trigger when I was seriously thinking of buying some. I do think things are improving there. I do think it's a value when compared to other competitors JAVA GMCR. Personally I actually like the price at current levels. I myself have consider entering it. The company has been sinking since Roy E. Farmer, committed suicide in January 2005 at age 52. They bought the Sara Lee’s Direct-Store Delivery Coffee Business and looks like they did a poor job integrating it. If they can successfully bring profit margins back. With the low number of outstanding shares I like the risk/reward potential. I could be wrong again.

Hi Ridge,

Take this with a grain of salt. I've had only a cursory look of the statistics:

Average FCF/equity in the last 5 years is about 10.4%. It's currently trading at 0.8 P/B. So, at the current price, you are getting it at ~12% cash earning yield.

Not super cheap. But looks like there is some truth in the non-GAAP argument. But really need to look into its business.
