Force Protection: Classic Example of Defense Boom/Bust
I believe your article to be factual, but of course opinion and your interpretation of the situation at hand.
"Can Force Protection pull it out"? As an investor, this has far more to do with simply "pulling it out."
The stock is trading as if it is going out of business, although recently it has firmed up and has traded around $3 for several weeks. It is most certainly not going out of business.
Will the stock get back to $31? I don't think so...the market cap is ridiclous. (Low and undervalued) lThey have plenty of cash. They have a spare parts business and build a quality product and other countries are interested in their vehicles. They have a partnership with a proven military providers...DRS. They have new management working dilligently to restate earnings, which is my opinion will not affect their current cash position. FRPT is a buyout candidate at these levels...a company could pay $8-10 and still be getting a great value. They have the Cheetah, and neither you or I can predict what the DOD will do...
Perhaps FRPT was a victim of "it's own success." Without competent management to handle growth properly, success and growth can be a death sentence.
There are three things one needs to make money in the stock market as an INVESTOR...patience, patience and patience.
