Here is a link to the finance.yahoo site for Force Protection. Click and note the glowing reviews for the company in the articles mentioned. And no wonder, click here for a link to the FRPT.OB website. As you will see their specialty is the production of armored vechiles to withstand IED Improvised Explosive Device blasts. And the armed services have ordered some of them.
Sound like a good investment opportunity? Well the stock is up from a buck or two to over $8 in a year. So explore the profile and statistics for yourself. The financial statements are on Yahoo but oddly absent from the corporate website. Instead the corporate website refers one to the SEC site where we are told we can find their statements, funny I didn’t find any.
What’s going on here? Would you invest in this company?
