They provide outsource manufacturing for all sorts of businesses, from healthcare to autos and data centres. They just reported a blowout quarter and raised their forecast. But the stock sold off 7% in one day. Their revenue guidance was conservative, so it sold, but he suspects there was profit-taking.
Just bought it before earnings--beating top and bottom lines, with a 16% YOY revenue jump. Management increased the YOY top and bottom line. But it's up a lot so be careful.

He just bought it. It's cheap at 10x forward earnings. They're in a hot business--a in logistics and supply chains. A very cheap stock. They've gotten into new markets. It's low-risk given the low multiple. They will guide to an earnings number of $10/share. Earnings will be released on Wednesday. This is a long-term hold.
The problem he is having with this is the same problem he is having with many of the others in the contract manufacturing space. The margins are so thin. Their pre-tax margin is about 3%, so if they make a mistake, it costs them a lot and there is not a lot of opportunity to make up profit.

Shares jumped 7% today because they reported a super quarter and raised their forecast due to a lot of data centre construction. Anything in data centres is on fire.
