STKL: Message Board for SunOpta, Inc. | Forum profile

Recs: 0 Re: Testing the last place of movement I picked up more shares of STKL at $4.72. Generally, conventional food companies sell for about 1X their sales and they only grow about 2-3% per year. SunOpta is growing 20% per year and we are going to do about $24.00 in sales in 2009. At the bare minimum, STKL is a $12.00 stock. However, with 20% growth across a wide array ...

Recs: 0 Re: Plastics and our food and SunOpta The thing about plastics that we keep seeing is the focus on safety issues even though the cost of plastics is also going up considerably. Since the focus is on consumer safety and the environment, this really bolsters the argument for biochemical fermentation over thermochemical processing because the market will choose ...

Recs: 0 Re: good stuff - do you think sunopta could be interested in this Nice website, great marketing, and good audio (reminds of my grandpappy). The packaging and marketing probably costs more than the actual mfg costs of the product itself. Maybe you should hit up the Bronfman's, they might be interested buyers. thread start

Recs: 0 Plastics and our food and SunOpta For those of you who don't know, SunOpta's pretreatment is critical for making safe bioplastics. The main reason is that the lignin stands in the way of cellulose and hemicellulose. I think SunOpta's process is going to be involved in licensing and recurring revenues through bioplastic production. In this case, we use millions of ...

STKL is increasingly a bargain on an ongoing basis at these prices because we are growing so fast.>> Price to Sales Ratio The trouble with the P/E ratio is that earnings is a ...

Recs: 0 Re: Bailout bill cost to Taxpayers And my former homestate the now Socialist Republic of Kalifornia will need a bail out of $7billion. Since 1992, the socialist party in control there has spent their way into oblivion, raised taxes, kicked businesses out of the state, stopped industrial and commercial production of oil and gas, killed the timber industry, and put...

Recs: 0 Re: I smell they made bad hedging bets "If they played it right market won't reward them and if they screwed it up as usual market won't forgive these clowns" Don't necessarily agree with you on that one, Cash. Not in terms of market reaction to what they might or might not have done with hedging, but whether or not their would be market reaction to THAT...

Recs: 0 Re: Jim Cramer:"Time to get out of the stock market" "Stay away and don't invest" Other way around, friend. IMHO. Another 10% and long term money should start buying. They need a window of at least 3 to 5 years, but in the mid 900s on the S+P, the market starts to become a buy. In the 700s it's like 1973 and 1974 all over again. I don't ...

Recs: 1 Debt Covenant Discussion W/out Bison, Primo, Please I joined IV today, after lurking on this board and a few other IV boards over the last few months. I try to invest in what I understand, and I look for intelligent, informative posts that can help me understand a company more completely. I bought two thousand shares of STKL in June. Am a little underwater but am ...

Recs: 4 Jim Cramer:"Time to get out of the stock market" He said this on the Today show this morning. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27045699 I am looking the other way. No way should he be shooting his mouth off now. Where was he in Jan? Telling everyone to load the wagon at these cheap prices. This is where u look for longs. Investors should have at least ...

Recs: 0 Re: Testing the last place of movement...earnings growth? <<So the profits that a company makes on those sales doesn't really make a difference?>> Oh they matter as you well know. That's why bison conveniently steers clear of discussing the overall earnings performance of this company. Revenues, revenues, revenues is the extent of it when it comes to this being ...

Recs: 3 Re: Testing the last place of movement "Typically, companies sell for 1X their sales" They do? I guess I better study up then, cause I thought ROIC, ROE, Margins, Debt/Equity ratios, and the like kinda effected that. Let me see, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....

Recs: 1 Re: SunOpta Announces Implementation of Shareholder Rights Plan "Essentially, only people who own shares of the company can decide on any potential activity here. That means anyone with a borrowed position in STKL is not part of any decision making." You really are clueless. OF COURSE shorts with borrowed shares can't vote. OF COURSE only people with ...
