Comment: If that is the case and the firm maintains it’s NPM @ 10%, then its at 10x PE at the moment. Finally a small company that isn’t trading at crazy valuations

Comment: We’ve played around with the financial models to see what RS has to achieve to maintain its currently valuation and well…their beauty business will have to grow by 5-7x, then again if you just apply the multiple from BEAUTY and DDD to their health and beauty business then where it is today isn’t totally farfetched…
