Sharek’s Take
David SharekNote: the data and charts in this article are as of May 27, 2011. I’m writing the article and buying the stock for clients today, June 7, 2011.

SodaStream International (SODA) will be purchased today in the Growth Portfolio and Aggressive Growth Portfolio. The stock is breaking out this afternoon and we cannot let this opportunity pass us by. Although SODA is hot, I wish to warn investors not to invest too much money into this stock — it is a recent IPO, and I had trouble getting data. I spent a lot of time researching this stock (in the evening) and the numbers were tough to grasp. Thomson still hasn’t given all the data available.

SodaStream is a manufacturer of do-it-yourself soda machines and the products that make the machines. Like Keugig machines make coffee, SodaStreams make soda pop. Although this idea and company have been around for around a hundred years the market is just now growing. The best thing about making pop at home is you don’t have to lug the containers of pop home. This works with tap water.

One-Year Chart
SODA is a recent IPO from the Fall of 2010. The stock just broke out last month to a new high after reporting earnings.

The Long Term Growth Rate of 30% is solid. Profits more than doubled last quarter and could again this quarter. P/E is around 43 as the stock is currently trading at $61.

 

Earnings Table
SodaStream’s profits jumped 171% last quarter. Sales were $45 million, up from $30 million in the same quarter last year. That’s some serious growth.
 
The big deal is SODA trounced earnings estimates of 14 cents, making a whopping 38 cent profit. That’s a big reason this stock is soaring.Annual Profit Estimates increased, and if SODA whipps estimates again we could see this continue.

Profit growth looks great next quarter, then could decelerate unless the company comes in over plan.

Fair Value
This stock is selling around where it should. Upside is good one-year out. I’m buying this stock because it could become something special. I want to have a little piece if it does.
Ten-Year Chart
SodaStream is a recent IPO, so there’s not muich on the ten-year chart. The one-year chart (above) shows the stock did base though, which is healthy.
