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.
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.
TTM EBITDA= 3.9 million
TTM Gross Profit = 8.47 million
Free Cash Flow/Sales %: TTM FCF/Sales = 14.20%, 2010 = 10.98 2009 = 8.75% 2008 = 1.77%, 2007 = 11,24% 2006 = 4.20%
Strong Capital Structure: share count was 2,757,315 for 2006 and is still 2,757,315 for the most recent financial report.
Book value has been increasing from 2.27 for 2003 to the current book value of 7.11
Consistent small annual dividend of about .10 per share or a current 1.8% dividend yield.
Market Cap: 13.79M
Enterprise Value 3.33M

MPAD.OB ; MICROPAC INDUSTRIESMicropac 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.
ProfitabilityFree Cash Flow/Sales %: TTM FCF/Sales = 14.20%, 2010 = 10.98 2009 = 8.75% 2008 = 1.77%, 2007 = 11,24% 2006 = 4.20%

Good Companies (High ROIC) selling at bargain Prices (High Earnings Yield)
in combination and only those below 50 million. This post will be a twist on Joel Greenblatt’s Magic Formula. I attempted to use (hopefully) a more normalized earnings for this adjustment on the magic formula. Earnings were based on the historical average EBITDA from 2006 to 2009. This earnings calculation was then used to measure how effective they were in using their operational assets to create earnings. Joel Greenblatt uses EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes). But for tonight I will use EBITDA until I update my data mining models.
Assets used to run the business was calculated as follows; [(current assets – current liabilities) + Net PPE (property plant and equipment)].The balances for the TTM was used.
The rational that started this search was twofold. The excellent MagicFormulaInvesting.com site focuses only on companies greater that 50 million. Joel Greenblatt has admitted smaller companies perform on average better than larger more closely followed larger stocks. The second idea was to use average historical EBITDA (earnings before interest taxes depreciation and amortization) from 2006 to 2009. The thought process was that using the TTM EBITDA would eliminate some ideas if they had temporary losses and the average prior (06-09) may indicate more normalized earnings.
I will expand the approach, audit for accuracy, improve the data mining techniques and closely review for alternative approaches that may also uncover ideas based on the “cheap and good companies” philosophy.
Some additional constraints added to the search were; stable share count over the past 4 years, sound balance sheet with little debt, trading near 52 week low.
I didn’t have time tonight to post the supporting decision making financial data but believed the ideas were worth a look. The supporting data should be posted latter this week.

Follow up notes on prior post presenting potential value
“Take up one idea.
Make that one idea your life; dream of it; think of it; live on that idea. Let
the brain, the body, muscles, nerves, every part of your body be full of that
idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, and this
is the way great spiritual giants are produced.”
