Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly HVT manufactures residential furniture and mattress products under the Sealy, Serty and Beautyrest brand names and is reiterated as a TOP PICK. It trades at 7x earnings compared to peers at 27x and is valued at just over 2x book value. It has paid a dividend every year since 1935. The yield is attractive and backed by a payout ratio under 25% of cash flow. The company continues to buy back shares, while still increasing cash reserves. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $23 stop) to $27, looking to achieve $43 -- upside of over 22%. Yield 2.93% (Analysts’ price target is $64.00)
