I agree it is getting down there in price. Starting to look like they overspent by a fair margin making the acquisition. Like you, I'm just watching.

I hate rentals but when you can get 10% or so+ return from rents (and that's at 10 months a year) when paying 100% for home, I tend to put up with the headaches. Only looking at foreclosures around here (very competitive bTW, lots of buyers out there last few months). The other stuff is too high priced to make the #s work well as rnetals.
Any appreciation is great, but in the meantime it is a cash generator at 10%+ annually. If you get leverage with home loan 20% or more down, the leverage numbers get better % return on up front money but you lose some money from fees and such with a loan origination, appraisal, etc.
If homes go up in price it's great, if they go down then I hope they go down less than 8% or so a year to keep the net worth level. Anyhow, I'm tolerant enough to do something I don't like if it pays well enough (at least for a little while)

Give it a year or two and I will probably be complaining loudly about rentals and wanting to go back to microcap/stock investing cuz less headache LOL. Good luck!

Yeah I am just watching it for now too. The price caught my eye and I started looking and realized there are enough issues to keep on the sidelines for now. At the right price (much lower) though I think I'd be tempted of course it depends on what the company looks like at that price .

My wife and I are looking to buy real estate too but not primarily for investment. I've noticed a mix of deals and unrealistic sellers. Don't know that I would want the headaches of rental property, I'm sure with your value approach you should do well in it.

Best, m

The deal certainly increased their footprint but looked like they sorely underestimated the inherent probs that may come from a merger/buyout short term and overestimated the revs.
CEO mentioned all the 'synergies' they should enjoy going forward but I am pretty cautious on this one at this point mainly because of the revs shortfall (not to mention margins deterioration).

The recent financing on the surface doesn't look like they got the best interest rates in the world on the term loan given great interest rate environment and maybe hints at some of the risk to their model with the acquisition weight on the balance sheet. but at least interest rates remain low for now.

I haven't dug into it in awhile though and don't have a position right now.

Mostly concentrating on rental real estate right now. Good luck!

Saw they are having problems with their acquisition getting the accounting to US standards. Looks like delisting and always a worry if hiding something. They always seemed to be building inventory instead of cash flow. Saw Royce was over 10% just few months ago and quickly dropped to around 5%. My guess it could get a lot lower still.

4 or 5 months? Been almost a year for me :) Maybe that conference thing went well or something (darn coulda listened to it live oh well), I'll have to look but didn't see any specific news on this nice breakout.

Hope you are doing well, I spend less time posting these days but doing well.
Still holding some cuz I didn't sell any of the shares in the taxable account. Just sold the last in tax free account yesterday (oops- only a few shares though).
Tomorrow is one year for half those taxable shares, long term gains yay. They'll be sold if this is over $14 :) The other shares come available over next couple weeks and will probably sell some of those too but keep a little to follow the progress of company.

Looks like I actually prognosticated correctly on MPAA for 2010 (oh, and EGMI too doh):

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=45805587

BTW, I did not make it to 20% return last year for the first time (even with the nice market) thanks mostly to AYSI but managed a gain so won't compalin. But I broke the 'make 20% per year' rule so as one 'penalty' don't get to spend as much time playing on the message boards. Not a bad thing really. Get more time with the little one :) Maybe miss a few opportunities, oh well.

Send an E-Mail some time and hope you and your family have a great 2011!

The shareholder meeting is also scheduled for Friday.


After all my complaining about Joffe the past 4-5 months or so the stock has been on a tear so I've kept my mouth shut . I do want to thank Gilead for pointing this one out and wish i-hub didn't offend him so he'd still post some ideas. Oh and I wish I would have felt better about things to buy more a year ago .

Net sales for the fiscal 2011 second quarter increased to $41.0 million from $39.4 million for the same period last year.

Gross profit for the fiscal 2011 second quarter was $12.7 million compared with $10.8 million for the same period a year ago. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the fiscal 2011 second quarter was 30.9 percent compared with 27.4 percent in the same quarter a year ago.

Operating income for the fiscal second quarter increased 42 percent to $7.5 million from $5.3 million in the same period a year ago.

Net income for the fiscal 2011 six-month period increased 30.0 percent to $6.0 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, from $4.6 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, a year earlier. Net sales increased seven percent to $77.2 million from $72.1 million in the corresponding period a year ago.

MPAA - Roth Capital made some comments on the Fenwick Acquisition regarding the potential to double MPAA revenue if Fenwick is acquired by MPAA. That isn't anything new but I find it interesting that Roth Capital is commenting now. Roth is maintaining their buy rating. I don't have a copy of the Roth comments but my news service had a short blurb about it.

Net sales for the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter were $38.6 million, compared with $29.9 million for the same period last year.

Gross profit for the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter was $12.5 million (or 32% gross margin), compared with $6.0 million (or 20% gross margin) for the same period a year ago.

Operating income for the fiscal fourth quarter climbed to $4.8 million, from an operating loss of $680,000 in the same period a year ago.

Net income for the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter was $2.9 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.2 million, or $0.10 per share, for the comparable period a year earlier.

Net sales for fiscal 2010 climbed 9.2 percent to a record $147.2 million, compared with $134.9 million a year ago. Gross profit for fiscal 2010 was $41.3 million, compared with $39.5 million a year earlier, with a gross margin of 28 percent compared with 29 percent in fiscal 2009.

"Our record sales for fiscal 2010 reflect our ability to build strong long-term relationships with leading automotive retailers and the professional market," said Selwyn Joffe, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Motorcar Parts.

Joffe noted that "our performance for the quarter validates our belief that as we continue to grow market share, operating performance is enhanced with very little incremental expenditure. As we enter a new fiscal year, operating leverage and increased usage of available production capacity continue to be important strategic components of the company's year-over-year growth plans -- supported by organic sales increases and acquisitions at appropriate valuations," Joffe added.

Motorcar Parts of America Reports Strong Fiscal 2011 First Quarter Results
Net Income More Than Doubles; Sales Climb
On Monday August 9, 2010, 8:00 am EDT

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 9, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (Nasdaq:MPAA - News) today reported strong results for its fiscal 2011 first quarter ended June 30, 2010, reflecting increased sales and improved productivity.

Net income for the fiscal 2011 first quarter climbed sharply to $2.5 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared with net income of $1.2 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the comparable period a year earlier.

Net sales for the fiscal 2011 first quarter increased 10.8 percent to $36.2 million from $32.7 million for the same period last year.

Gross profit for the fiscal 2011 first quarter was $11.5 million compared with $7.2 million for the same period a year ago.

Operating income for the fiscal first quarter climbed 77.4 percent to $5.4 million from $3.1 million in the same period a year ago.

General and administrative expenses were negatively impacted by a $471,000 non-cash loss as a result of negative foreign currency fluctuations in the fiscal 2011 first quarter. The company benefitted in the same period a year earlier as a result of a non-cash gain in foreign currency fluctuations of $964,000.

"The 2011 fiscal year is off to an excellent start, with strong sales momentum and solid profitability as the company continues to focus on operating leverage and increased usage of available capacity," said Selwyn Joffe, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Motorcar Parts.

I really like MPAA for the following reasons and have been accumulating:

1. MPAA is in a recession resistant business selling remanufactured starters and alternators.

2. MPAA just reported diluted EPS of $0.21 and $0.25 excluding one-time items. They also made $0.90 in the trailing 12 months. They are cheap on any metric of trailing earnings.

3. MPAA is expecting to grow revenue for the remainder of the fiscal year. They should continue to grow earnings based upon increased revenue.

4. One of their one-time items this quarter was an inventory write-down. Inventory was written down because they decreased manufacturing costs. Thus a one-time item this quarter should result in higher gross margin going forward.

5. They are trading at a discount to their book value of $8.82.

6. They are entering one of their seasonally stronger quarters.

Ah the insider bassturds. The VP guy didn't even try to keep a few of those options shares LOL.

Re Gilead actually I'm just trying to get Gilead to go 'free,' not quit.
Maybe he felt overinspired, feeling the recent freedom of quitting his 'regular' job so decided to try it on something like message board posting on IHub?

Or maybe it was just some squadoosh head pissing him off for something possibly relatively trivial that had him make a stand on principles?
He tends to stand on principles. Maybe one of them swatted him too hard in grade school so he gets back at 'em when he can?

Those insider sales the past two days don't exactly install confidence, especially a sales VP!

Hey what did you say to gilead to get him to quit . Too bad if he goes one of the better posts and a nice touch of sarcasm too.

I'm actually happy to see the more conservative stance if Joffe keeps it up and is fairly accurate with the somewhat subjective terminology often used in forecasting.
I'd rather have someone talking things down than talking them up. And of course just plain stating things as they are w/o sugar is better yet

Yeah I can't complain... Well shouldn't but I do . I think Joffee scared me from making it too big a position but agree while it may not have 10 bagger or even 5 bagger potential there is still descent upside especially if Joffee starts trying to make real money instead of build his (as gilead says F. S.) empire.

I don't know but at least we are still moving up

Not gonna set the world on fire IMO with current biz model but still think we could see some further upside here. Kinda happy to see we did not drop back after earnings (yet) with the semiconservative view Joffe had about next Q. He seems to be acting a little more conservative lately on projections and such IMO.
Now if only some of the mngmnt compensation became more conservative and tied to share price

I never do well trying to time a stock either...

I sold CTIB a bit ago thinking its getting ahead of itself that was about 30% ago.

I usually like to hold and get the lt cap gains tax rate but with the markets as they are I thought it could drop more then I could save in taxes so much for that theory

LF should be quite happy when he gets up.

So much for my theory of the stock falling back to the low 6's

Short term prognostication is not my strong suit

Ya fallback wouldn't surprise me unless the company feels at liberty to start buying back now that the report is out of the way. Or some fund suddenly decides to 'discover' it as a value investment. I feel pretty comfortable we are building higher-priced downside levels with time which is what I like even if upside is so-so, at least in current market conditions.

I get a little over 23 cents EPS this Q if we normalize tax rate to 40% and take out the one time charges from bad debt expense and nonpayment from renter. If any of that gets recouped we could see 1 time gains help the other way of course.

I am assuming the little verbage Joffe gave about 2011 expecting higher revs and net income YOY would NOT include buyback shares potential boost. They have yet to start buy back in the market apparently. And customers continue to do well with the macrotrends still in place (aging fleet, tuff economy so older cars likely kept on road longer and fixed instaed of replaced).
Then again, I don't rely on putting much specific weight in mangement teams giving annual guidance definitely including this team.

Considering the large sizes of accts payable, inventories, etc I still think we are a couple Qs off from seeing more cash put on the balance sheet. $500K per Q will go toward term loan repayments but beyond that could be wiggling back and forth.

In the current Q, looks like Sanford and Son would be proud.
LT inventory up $1.6 mill roughly. $500K went to pay down term loan. That's $2.1 mill of the $2.9 mill made.

Thinking we'll see lumps and bumps but the value proposition and easy understandability of the biz and what drives it is still quite apparent to me so I'll keep this as a core holding occassionally flipping a few around that probably.
OK that was pretty cheesy, even KiK is rolling his eyes.

Too bad. I need to dig through it a bit

I am assuming we see a fall back here either way. That has been the pattern on recent spikes. The sellers come out of the woodwork. That lets me lock in profits and gives me time to sit back and evaluate the results. There are some real luxuries when your positions are small enough to be tradable.

The numbers were definitely solid though.

Don't think they did. Woulda been good for them to step thru.
I haven't had a chance to look at the balance sheet much yet. I am guessing it will take another couple Qs before we start seeing cash build on the balance sheet meaningfully with the intensive inventories they carry, unless they start ramping heavy duty even more.
The plus side of that I would think would be they'd only build a substantial amount of heavy duty inv if they get some decent wins from customers for supplying. They already carry a lot of heavy duty parts but doubt they are in large quantity. Would be a good question to ask if they'd know offhand, how much of inv is segmented toward heavy duty.
Having to house all that inventory not only at their places but also at the retail chains is a capital intensive project.
It was a decent Q though. Factoring out all the 1 times on all the Qs, this Q I think was the strongest in terms of gross profit, op income, and net earnings if we apply 40% tax rate to all #s. Revs slightly lighter than the one Q but if we're getting better operational profitability, that's OK with me.

Did they talk about cash generation from ops?

I took a quick look at the balance sheet and concluded they didn't generate much. That is my lingering concern. Quality of earnings does not seem to be improving.

OK Joffe said they were somewhat restricted from buying back due to Q report but it is out now. They better get to putting some money up for shares.
So we need to start holding him accountable about buying back shares. Eliminate whatever excuses they may make.
Nice to see there was a $0.9+ mill expense explained in SGA one time that initially had me concerned on the SGA bumpup Q #s. That puts Op Income around $5.7 mill for the Q excluding charges, fairly healthy.
At same time, sounds like we may see a sequential drop next Q based on tone re revs but probably not too bad.

This is a good generic value play easy to understand biz model IMO and I am waiting for higher prices before selling esp w/company not yet buying back shares.
One thing seems like they should mention is the currency hedges tend to offset the inv writedowns I think.
They talk about improved GMs with inv writedowns but then don't mention a chunk of that increased efficiency is probably driven by currency (pay in pesos so cheaper labor) so you get increased GMs but then increased expenses in G&A thru currency hedge charge to balance it a bit IMO.

Wish the market would more fairly value their intangible side with customer relationships, brand names they've built up in the marketplace, customer lists, etc. Let alone their TANGIBLE book side LOL.

Looks like a very nice quarter. I didn't look through the K yet though to see if anything is hiding in there. Still hope the cc has the activists putting a little heat on Joffe.

If you are interested, could I get your E-Mail thru PM? I read many of your posts and you seem to have a similar appetite for companies I gravitate toward.
Agree with your comments on MPAA on VMC today. I have been adding though lately under $6.

Hoping if margins are another disappointment this Q (under 30%) that the CC gets a little more contentious toward mngmnt...

They need to start being more proactive in unlocking some of the 'value' in the company. I doubt they've done much more than buy back a token amount as you mention. Should know in next couple weeks one way or other when Q is reported.

Noticed this just now:

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/New-Light-Vehicle-Units-To-twst-2148353142.html?x=0&.v=2

Guess they are PR hungry LOL.
I would expect a CC announcement this week or early next.


Seems like the article is only modestly relating to MPAA's main industry segment (brief AZO mention). No mention of MPAA that I saw.
