A find tonight
The business including its debt costs 5.55 times the operating profit it filed, the earnings in its last filed year are 8.31 percent of what the whole company costs, and earns 26.0 percent on the capital it has invested; it is in none of the indexes we carry (Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500).

What stands out
- Returns: earns 26.0 percent on the capital it has invested, which is better than 90 percent of the companies we rank in United States.
- Safety: sits at 6.68 on Altman's Z, clear of the distress band, which is better than 83 percent of the companies we rank in United States.
- Price: the business including its debt costs 5.55 times the operating profit it filed, which is better than 98 percent of the companies we rank in United States.
Why nobody is looking
- It is in none of the indexes we carry (Dow Jones Industrial Average, Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500).
What could make it a trap
- None of the tests we hold fired against it: we checked Altman's Z, the five-year net margin trend, share count, Beneish's M, debt to equity and the last year of price. That is the absence of a flag we look for and not a clean bill of health.
