Summery
Have bought some at $4.00 as it is a net net working capital. Now price is around $4.40.
Facts:
1.Total current assets: 190.6m. Total liabilities: 153.2m. (190.6-153.2) = 37.4. Even at current price it is close to the market cap of 37.8m. It is net net working capital.
2. Average earning for the past 4 years is above $1 pre year.
3. Book value: $11.76 pre share.
4. Share outstanding: 8.5m
Analysis:
1. Its active wear segment is doing pretty bad. The restructure cost them 0.91 pre share. I view this as temporary.
2. Found on yahoo finance, one insider officer HUMPHREYS ROBERT bought 32,178 shares early this year at a price over $8.

Q3 2008 Data
Summery
No the price around $3. More info as read more of their financial report of current 4 quarters.
Facts:
1. No deficit for past 8 years. But lost quite a lot of money in year 1999 and 1998.
Analysis
1. During the last several years (2004 and after). Their inventory level remain quite high. Almost half of their annual sales. Now their inventory reaches $136m. For a seasonal reason, it should be down a little bit in the coming quarter.
2. In past three quarters, they borrowed $24m and spent $12.5m in capital expenditure. Another 2.5m is expected in the coming quarter.
3. The restructuring cost is estimated at 0.75 pre share in last year's report. Real is 0.91 pre share.
4. Negative cash flow for past three quarter. Now the total receivable almost equal to total payable. So the 97m debt is solely depending to the $136m inventory. This is a 66% percent. Historically this number is less than 50%. So the next quarter is really important.
