I agree with your analysis of company fundamentals--they are/have been gushing $$$ at an alarming rate, with profitability nowhere on the horizon, but,

>>It isn't a high growth business>>

You don't consider 20% market segment growth, high growth? That was the last analyst estimate I saw (previous projection was 25+% before late December). Granted, this market will NEVER be as large as the meat market, but this niche can be profitable (see WFDS).

You're right about competitors. Both WFDS and Green Giant have profitted from GBURs add splurge

and the WSJ pointed out that no matter what ad campaign GBUR runs, WFDS will get the majority of the benefit.
