Tiny (nano cap) Deep Value Companies

Tonight  I will start with MPAD.OB  

Your commitment should be long term as the market's immediate recognition of their potential value is unlikely. Future value may be realized several ways; the company declares a special dividend, goes private for a premeium, takeover or just a rise in the stock price as the markets slowly recognizes the future value of a well run shareholder friendly company.

These other nano capitalization stocks may qualify and may be introduced with further details ; Some were introduced in prior posts. VSNT,MMUS,AIRT,ISIG,UG,FLL,SIF,TRMS,OFI
MPAD.OB ; MICROPAC INDUSTRIES

Micropac Industries provides microelectronic and optoelectronic components and modules. Contract electronic manufacturing services are also provided. The company products are sold in the industrial, medical, military, and aerospace markets.  The company was founded in 1963.

Intrinsic value: MPAD has been a consistent cash machine. TTM FCF = 3,370,000 : 2010 = 2,534,000: 2009 = 1,538,000: 2008 = 356,000: 2007 = 2,083,000: 2006 = 721,000
Using a basic discounted cash flow and assuming an annualized 1 million in FCF (far less than average over the past 5 years) with a large discount rate of 9% and assuming zero growth still give us a present value of  10.7 million. This amount far exceeds the current enterprise value of 3.3 million providing us with a large margin of safety.

TTM EBITDA=  3.9 million
TTM Gross Profit = 8.47 million

All of these valuation metrics compare favorable to the current enterprise value of 3.3 million.
