Premium contentA Toronto law firm has just slapped D&D with a $200-million class-action lawsuit. Lawyers hate this “disgusting” company for pumping up the cost of legal software. Now, I don't expect investors to shed a tear for lawyers. Regardless, D&D controls so much of this industry that they exercise uber pricing power. Perhaps too much, and that has thrown them in legal hot water that could hit their bottom line.

DND is a highly volatile name, trading either up or down a lot on occasion without any significant news (none of note yesterday). Fundamentally, the company is trading at 7.1x Forward P/E. Management is aggressive in repurchasing shares, they cancelled 20% of the share outstanding within the last year. Management is implementing cost-cutting initiatives and DND expects revenue to recover when the real estate market comes back. Having said that, the leverage level is quite high, with the net debt/ EBITDA currently around 8.9x, and growth was mainly through acquisitions, which investors need to monitor as potential risks. Overall, the company is trading at the lower end of historical averages since going public. We would be comfortable adding at this valuation, but being cognizant of leverage and small cap risk.
