Hweb, thanks for MVCO!

Thanks for finding MVCO last week Harry. I think you have uncovered yet another sleeping giant. Here are some details from last earnings report, keep in mind $80+ million backlog, $5+ million one time loss, IPO coming and easy comps. Here's the best part $170+ million revenue with only 2 million shares in the float. LOW FLOAT MANIA HERE WE COME!

"2005 First Quarter Results

For the quarter ended March 31, 2005, revenue increased to $39.9 million from $39.2 million for the first quarter of 2004. Net income for the first quarter of 2005 was $0.25 million, or $0.06 per diluted share. This compares to net income for the first quarter of 2004 of $0.44 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, which included a pre-tax gain of $1.7 million for the settlement of a claim in New Mexico.

Construction services revenue increased to $25.9 million for the first quarter of 2005. For the first quarter of 2004, construction services revenue was $25.6 million.

Construction materials revenue increased to $14.0 million for the first quarter of 2005 from $13.6 million for the first quarter of 2004, primarily reflecting an increase in average unit sales price. Unit volume for the first quarter of 2005 declined by approximately 10% compared to the first quarter of 2004, primarily due to unusually wet weather in January and February, 2005.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $4.9 million for the first quarter of 2005 from $1.7 million for the first quarter of 2004.

At March 31, 2005, Meadow Valley reported cash and restricted cash of $14.4 million and shareholders' equity of $12.5 million. This compares to cash and restricted cash of $11.4 million and stockholders' equity of $12.2 million at March 31, 2004.

Backlog

Backlog in the construction services segment at March 31, 2005 increased to $81.6 million compared to $53.9 million at March 31, 2004."
