Company Description
National Beverage Corp, together with its subsidiaries, develops, sells and distributes a line of beverage products in the United States. The company was founded in 1985 and has a market cap of $739 million.
FIZZ has been a steady player over the last few months in a very volatile market, supported by strong Q2 results from mid July that included big gains from last year.
Second-Quarter Results
Revenue for the period was up marginally from last year to $152 million. Net income was up 20% from last year to $11 million, producing earnings of 24 cents per share.
Financial Profile
National Beverage also continues to maintain a strong balance sheet, with cash and short-term investments of $21 million and total debt of just $18 million.
Estimates
We saw some decent movement in estimates off the good quarter, with the current year adding 5% to 97 cents. The next-year estimate is pegged at $1.05, a solid 8% growth projection.
Valuation
But in spite of the gains FIZZ still looks reasonably priced, trading with a forward P/E of 16X, a discount to its peer average of 20X.
