LapWall: No signs of a market turnaround yet
LapWall's Q4 report was slightly weaker than expected as a whole, due to lower order backlog than we predicted, the increasingly bleak outlook for residential construction, and the slight Q4 earnings miss. However, the report had a limited impact on LapWall’s overall picture, and we still expect the company to achieve significant earnings growth with its competitive advantages as the construction cycle turns. A market turnaround is unlikely this year and the outlook is still uncertain, but the stock is reasonably priced even with the poor current performance considering the company’s potential.
