I have a habit of digging deep into under-followed and obscure
corners of the industrial world, and it has turned up a lot of good
investment opportunities over the years. Leading tow truck and car
carrier company Miller Industries (MLR)
would seem to fit the profile, as this company leads an industry worth
an estimated $600 million or more per year, and has only scratched the
surface of its overseas opportunities.
To be fair, Miller's record
with respect to margins and returns on capital isn't spotless, but I
attribute much of this to the ups and downs of the towing industry it
serves - an industry with few large-scale operators and above-average
economic sensitivity. On its own, I believe Miller is worth around $23
per share, but I would expect the sale of the company to be a "when, not
if" event, and Miller could be worth even more to the right acquirer
than its stand-alone valuation would indicate.
