Update on SKBI (previously SKBO.OB)

I alerted about SKBI (SKBO.OB until last Friday) on 06/08 when it was trading at $14, read it. As the company announced earlier, it moved from OTC exchange to NASDAQ last Friday, 06/26 and closed at $20 after hitting the intraday/52 week high of $22, which was like 55% above its recommended price. SKBI just released the news saying it is offering the public with 1.4 million shares at $12.98, which will be used for completion of a new vaccine facility; the construction of a new production facility for micro-organisms and feed additives; acquisitions of other companies in the veterinary healthcare industry; and working capital and general corporate purposes, including research and development and marketing.

New Analysis - Take a look at their recent S1 for more information on how many shares are with the management and how many are locked for 6 months. Based on that the new float should be around 1.5 million and outstanding shares should be around 2.5 million (Please correct me if I am wrong). Coming to EPS...As per their recent presentation they earned $3.07 on outstanding shares, which is $6.7 million net adjusted income (excluding non-recurring expenses). If you divide the net income with the newly diluted shares you get the earnings of $2.75 so based on the recent growth history, I do not think they need to sweat for the same amount of growth in the coming quarters and I think they can easily exceed market expectations of $3.50 plus EPS.

Bottomline - Based on today's news, SKBI's stock price could tank tomorrow and how much is it going tank is anyone's guess. But I consider the dip as a buying opportunity. I hope some of you already took some profits off the table (If not then its not my fault!). If you have not traded this stock in the past, I would like you to add it to your watchlist and take small position when it dips.

Disclosure - I neither long nor short SKBO.OB or SKBI
