Outlook for Winnebago Industries
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page paper discussing financial and stock performance of Winnebago relative to its industry. The US stock market dropped dramatically immediately following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, tripping the already-weak economy into official recession. Because recreational vehicles are considered to be luxury items, it would be reasonable to assume that a company such as Winnebago Industries (NYSE: WGO) would be suffering as well. To date, however, it has not. The paper lists and discusses many of the company’s valuation, growth rates, management effectiveness and profitability ratios, discovering that the company has remained generally undervalued in the past and fiscally conservative during the heady times of the late 1990s. Its ratios are higher than those of the industry; management effectiveness ratios far outstrip that industry. Bibliography lists 6 sources. Includes 1 table.
