5i Research Answer:
MCB is up 57% the past month and 85% the past three months. It reported results in early August, with profits doubling and revenue growing 23%. Sales growth was driven by the strong adoption of its FMS equipment and the delivery of wellbore equipment, as energy exploration activity picked up, leading to a stronger backlog and revenue growth projections. It is a small company ($100M market cap) with decent free cash flows, a reasonable valuation of 12X trailing earnings, and rising profit margins. If it can continue to capitalize on the adoption of its equipment, we could see the name continue to perform well, however, it has had a substantial run in recent months, and we would not be surprised by some profit-taking from investors.
