Method amid the madness
Article Abstract:
Investors should be methodical when assessing whether to invest in a company, and this can be illustrated by using Dolphin Packaging as an example. The company's business is easy to understand, and the industry has good growth prospects. The company does not appear to use too much capital, and borrowings are not rising over the long-term, while return on capital is better than average. The chief executive has 100,000 worth of stocks in the company, which could be higher, but his pay is not excessive. The fair value for Dolphin Packaging's business is above its price in terms of stock market value, and interim results are good.
