Cemtrex Inc. (OTC:CTEI) was recently highlighted in an article by Payal Gupta of Seeking Alpha. The following are highlights from the recent feature:

In a world where investors are used to hearing about heavy premiums for acquisitions, Cemtrex seems to have gotten a deal in buying ROB Group as the company was languishing financially and needed an exit strategy due to an insolvency debacle because a customer defaulted on a large payment. With favorable, non-dilutive terms, via a bank loan that carries only 3% interest and a 17-year repayment term, Cemtrex came in and bought the company at roughly half of ROB Group's book value. To avert any such payment debacle from happening again, Cemtrex has put in place a policy that all orders and receivables are covered by a major insurer.

The fastidious acquisition translated to Cemtrex generating $47.65 million in revenue in the 12 months ended September 30, 2014, a 249% increase versus $13.67 million in the year prior period. Net income was up a stunning 834% to $2.69 million, or 7 cents per share, compared to net income of $288,497 in the same period a year earlier.

Shares of CTEI have bounced around lately between $0.60 and $0.74, but even taking the high end of that range equates to a market capitalization of only $30.04 million. Moreover, Cemtrex can be evaluated in a way many OTC companies can't: through a TTM price-to-earnings ratio, which at $0.74 equates to a P/E ratio of 10.6:1 for Cemtrex. At $0.64, the P/E ratio drops to 4.7:1, according to data from QuoteMedia.

Looking at the Pollution & Treatment Controls industry shows an industry P/E ratio of 64:1. Now, to be fair, that figure is skewed upward by some foreign companies, but looking directly at US-listed comparables shows only MFR, Inc. (NASDAQ: MFRI) has a P/E ratio lower than Cemtrex at 4.9:1, in part because MFR swung to a net loss of $0.4 million in Q3 compared to a net profit of $7.4 million in the year prior quarter as sales decreased 24% to $43.8 million. Trading Tuesday at $7.41, shares of MFRI are off a March high of $17.44 by 57.5%. P/E ratios for other U.S. companies in the pollution treatment industry generally range from around 15:1 - 25:1.

The P/E ratio for the Industrial Electrical Equipment industry is 25.7:1, with a similar structure to the Yahoo list and most in the area of 20:1. Yahoo has Cemtrex officially listed in the smaller industry of Industrial Equipment and Components where the industry P/E is 127.1:1. Even the broader sector of Industrial Goods has a P/E ratio of 19.9:1. Point here is to take a look at several surrounding industries, rather than the IE&C industry exclusively to demonstrate the valuation that can certainly be construed as on the low end compared to peers.

Cemtrex is building a marquee company specializing in advanced industrial and manufacturing technologies. The balance sheet is clean, albeit light on cash ($1.3 million in cash and equivalents), with $4.6 million in receivables as of September 30 and shareholder equity of $3.28 million. That equity has reversed course from a deficit of $916,000 in four years against the backdrop of 1,000% growth in revenue. With domestic and international operations, Cemtrex's business is scalable and ultimately still running well below capacity as it ramps up sales in very diverse, multi-billion dollar markets. The business model, high insider holdings (73%), growing profitability and customers such as Siemens, BP, Shell, General Electric, BASF, DuPont, Corning and Mitsubishi (to name a few) help mitigate risk and identify Cemtrex with class as an anomaly in the OTC world. Sporting a somewhat humble demeanor, the company will not skirt under the attention of Wall Street forever.
