The Company is a retailer of products and programs for the diet and nutrition industry.

According to Nutrition Business Journal, the global nutrition market grew from $172 billion in 2003 to $226 billion in 2006. Demand for nutritional products is expected to expand further due to changing consumer demographics (baby-boomers are reaching age 60), growing awareness of diet/disease relationships and increasing acceptance of alternative healthcare practices. Demand for dietary and weight loss products is increasing as a result of growing obesity concerns.

Financial Analysis:
The Company, incorporated in 1999, began marketing nutritional and dietary products in 2006. In FY 2006, the Company produced net revenue of $345,573 and recorded 52% gross margins, resulting in gross profits of $179,525. Operating expenses represented about 50% of revenue and totaled $175,403 for the year.
Financial Record:
Despite relatively modest revenues in its first year of marketing nutritional products, the Company was profitable in 2006, generating a net margin of just over 1.0% and net income of $4,122. EBITDA was also positive at $27,219; EBITDA margins were around 8%. The Company expects to improve operating and net margins as it benefits from the ramp-up in revenues which is likely to result from locating stores in Peak Fitness Centers.
At December 31, 2006, the Company had cash reserves of $4,103. Current assets consisted entirely of inventory,and current liabilities were high due to loans from shareholders. At year-end 2006, the Company had a working capital deficit (excluding cash) of $28,272 and negative stockholders equity of $26,540. Management anticipates additional funding will be needed to support its 2008 business plan and plans to raise $1.0 million in new capital through debt or equity sales.
The Company is targeting 2007 revenues at approximately $600,000. Going forward, a key driver of Planet Nutrition’s future revenue growth will be the rollout of its network of stores through Peak Fitness Centers in North and South Carolina. The Company anticipates having stores in at least 40 Peak Fitness locations by yearend 2009, producing $10 million in annualized revenues and $3.5 million in gross profits. We also expect the Company to negotiate similar arrangements with other fitness chains and are forecasting 20% revenue growth in 2010 and in 2011.
Valuation:
We are forecasting a rapid ramp-up in revenues for Planet Nutrition as a result of its marketing agreement with Peak Fitness and similar arrangements we expect the Company to negotiate with other fitness chains. In addition, we think profitability growth will outpace revenue growth. The Company was profitable in FY 2006 on very modest revenues and would be profitable in 2007 as well if not for the costs of opening and supporting the new stores. Because of its exceptional growth prospects, we think these shares warrant a valuation more in line with the nutritional products peer group and are initiating coverage of Planet Nutrition with a Speculative Buy rating and a $0.30 price target. Our price target is based on a discounted present value of our 2009 market capitalization target, which in turn was determined by multiplying our 2009 revenue estimate by a 3.0 times Price/Sales multiple.

My Comments:
The diet and nutrition industry is very competitive by rapid changes in product demand and frequent new product launches. To compete successfully in this market, the Company must be continuously upgrading its product line and building relationships with the best manufacturers. If the company, which already is bringing in revenue and can complete their objective on store openings, this issue can be a nice long-term hold.. Currently this is a speculative buy and one must pursue the FREE Share scenario as outlined in my The 3 P's of Investing and the Strategy that can maximize your ROI.. Read the research report by Beacon Research on the top of this newsletter for a complete and superb analysis.
Have a good day and as always do your DD and invest smart.
