Retail sporting goods and outdoor recreational products. Sell coolers, camping equipment, and accessories. Now — the numbers.
Revenue is spread across several lines; no single product carries the company.
This is an established company with proven profits.
The gap is $1.6B. In times of high interest rates, a gap like that can squeeze a company.
The market pays 9.1× for every dollar of annual profit — cheap, which is either an opportunity or a warning.
Against companies in its own sector, it looks cheaper than 87% of them.
Analysts' average target sits 7% above today's price.
Executive selling isn’t always bad news; people sell for personal reasons too. Still, the thin buying side is worth noting.
We compared this company with its own sector across five subjects.
A score of 50 means class average.
Clearly above the class average — a step short of the very top.
A solid grade overall — yet the debt outweighs the cash. The strength here comes from earnings power.
The price looks reasonable next to what the company earns.
There is growth, but not at top-of-the-class tempo.
Clearly above the class average — a step short of the very top.
No real weak spot in any of the five subjects — a balanced report card.
The stock trades 26% below its peak. The market has trimmed its expectations for the company.
It pays out $0.56 per share each year — regular cash for whoever holds the stock.
Over the last 4 years, sales fell about 3% a year on average. Profit is holding up, but a shrinking business is a risk worth watching.
No clear buy-side message is coming from the executive floor.
On our five-subject report card, ASO sits near the top of the class. A high grade doesn’t mean “guaranteed win” — it means “the evidence looks strong for now.”
The takeaway: ASO is an established business that has proven its profits for years. The real debate isn’t the quality of the business — it’s what that quality should cost.
The total grade weighs these five subjects against the sector — it isn’t a simple average of the five.
