From Yahoo! Finance, "Aldila, Inc., through its subsidiaries, engages in designing and manufacturing graphite golf shafts principally in the United States. Its shafts are composite structures consisting principally of carbon fiber and epoxy resins, as well as boron or fiberglass. The company, through its joint venture, also offers carbon fiber for various applications, such as molding compounds for the manufacture of electronic components, masts, and spars for the marine industry, hockey sticks, fishing rods, industrial products, and golf shafts. In addition, it manufactures and sells prepreg to manufacturers of composite products; and hockey sticks. Aldila sells its graphite shafts to golf club manufacturers, distributors, custom club assemblers, pro shops, and repair shops in England, China, Canada, Australia, and internationally. The company was founded in 1972 and is based in Poway, California". From my personal experience, Aldila makes great golf shafts and drastically improves my game. All golf related product sales are down from last year. I believe it's a great time to buy in while it's down. ALDA is a long-term play and it pays a 3% dividend for the patient wait. ALDA is a microcap with less than 100m market cap, therefore it does pose some high risk. Golfing is growing in popularity and I see a bright future for this company.
