DRYCLEAN USA, Inc.

DRYCLEAN USA, Inc. is an AMEX listed security that has been trading in a range between $1.40 and $2.70 over the past year. With 7,034,310 shares outstanding, a recent price of $2.00 gives a total market capitalization of $13,716,905. While there are certainly larger companies, DRYCLEAN USA, Inc. has definitely earned its place in the pack. Last year, DRYCLEAN USA, Inc. created $0.12 in earnings for every share outstanding.

DRYCLEAN USA, Inc. is currently priced by the market at 16.30 times last year’s earnings. Many trading multiples around the world are quite attractive these days, but don’t be fooled. A Price to Earnings ratio of 0 simply means that the security didn’t make any money last year.

With a share price under $50 a share and earnings per share below $1 a share, DRYCLEAN USA, Inc. could be an interesting value proposition.
