“The anticipated cost savings alone equates to about a whopping $1.70 (tax adjusted, $1.27) in pre-tax EPS!! At the current price of $8.00, the stock is selling at a P/E of 6.29x on just the expense savings, assuming no growth in the company’s business. A re-rate to a P/E of 10x or 15x would equate to an eventual price target range of $10.27 to $26.25, respectively. 

We will be revisiting this story, with an obsession, in the coming weeks…Stay very tuned.”

Tornadoes and Turnarounds in focus: While it’s a little early, One stock is getting very interesting again.

• KEQU: Classic Turnaround Case Study
• ALAR Takes round 2 in bull vs. bear battle royale, rebounding from a standing 10 count in round 1.
• CRWS Turnaround worth watching due to low P/E and 6% dividend yield.

If there was a recurring theme in our email communications this week, it was clearly turnarounds. Among our 10 point checklist to find tier one micro cap stocks is identifying high-probability turnarounds. Our vigilance for these opportunities remains a key component in trying to identify multibaggers early in their formations. Don’t get me wrong, finding multibagger turnarounds is not easy and took me years to get right.  

I guess this parallels with a storm chaser who gambles on deciding to follow and bet on an EF1 tornado developing into an EF5. In fact, Less than 1% of tornadoes are classified as EF5s, the most damaging tornadoes. But when you get it right, it’s exhilarating.
