RCII has a 9.3/10 Equity StarMine Summary Score, has beaten analyst estimates on its last 5 earnings reports, and has grown earnings by 113% this year. Its P/E of 12.3 is quite attractive for a growing company.
Here's S&P Capital IQ's analysis of the fundamentals, scored out of 100:
Valuation: 99/100 (extremely undervalued)
Quality: 98/100 (extremely high quality)
Growth stability: 97/100 (extremely stable)
Financial health: 95/100 (extremely healthy)
Man. You don't see numbers like those every day. About the only thing RCII *doesn't* have going for it is that rentals aren't a very sexy sector. This isn't going to run like a Tesla or a Beyond Meat. Still, this is a very solid stock that should climb out of its pennant soon, in my opinion. Set a stop loss beneath the pennant bottom.
Edit to add: 1) several directors added shares on September 6, which I assume was part of their compensation plan, 2) RCII's price stayed stable after its dividend, which is always a good sign, 3) RCII got upgraded by Recognia today after the algorithm detected a breakout. I think this was a false positive, but it could move the stock price up anyway.
