nah its good value based on the fundamentals i outlined
Forecasts are for an EPS of anywhere between 96.5cps and 100cps with 96.5 represeting 6% growth and 100cps representing 10% growth
Many engineering companys saying 2010 will be same and 2011 massive ala UGL
PE isnt high compared to the other big guns at all like WOR or LEI whom have outstanding fundamentals, but UGL is in buffet territory too with respect to ROE, ROC, CASH-FLOWS, FREE-CASH FLOWS and debt that is 50% to equity and easily serviced by strong cash-flow which has added defensive certainty in earnings from property management long term life contracts in the US
USD will impact many many companys
I think theyre being conservative as per usual re 2010 as are many other companys
Theres more value in this than the big guns which are tradign at much higher PEs at 18-19, whilst we're 33% lower at circa 14
theres more upside in this one
they always under-promise and over-deliver; Ive seen it since 2002
