WSJ: Heard On The Street 01/11. Blue Rhino's complex business maneuvers may put a damper on the red hot shares. Blue Rhino provides propane cylinders for your backyard barbecue gas grill. It was IPOed last June at 18 then slipped in October to 7. Since then it recovers and traded at 50 times projected earnings of $0.49 a share for the year ending July 1999. RINO uses independent distributors to move and service the gas cylinders at Home Depot and Wal-Mart. Its insiders, CEO and vice chairman, finances and owns up to 40% of the partnership with its distributors. In case of USA Leasing LLC, these two gentlemen own 75% of the distributors. USA Leasing, in October, bought $6.5 millions worth of RINO inventory which left RINO with only $1 million of gas cylinders on book. This brings up the question how the RINO book looks like when the leasing company returns those unsold gas cylinders. Investors will not know the full story unless RINO presents the consolidated statements. But legally and realistically RINO does NOT have to make such disclosures.
