RGS operates and manages hair salons with brands like Super Cuts across North America. The company has been consolidating its foot print, closing less profitable locations, to increase its efficiency and has introduced a reward program and smoother in-store experience. Recently reported EPS were up over 30% and cash reserves are growing. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $15, looking to achieve $24 -- upside potential over 25%. Yield 0%
(Analysts’ price target is $40.00)We reiterate the hair salon franchise company with brands like SuperCuts as a TOP PICK. The company just bought back 300 salons at 4x earnings -- good value. It trades at 4x earnings, under book value and supports a great ROE. We recommend trailing up the stop (from$15) to $17, looking to achieve $31 -- upside potential of 28%. Yield 0%
