Hi guys, kind of new to the game and not sure were to post this... but this thread seems to have some smart, "value" minded people. Gonna pitch an idea that's hopefully interesting and maybe you can teach me how to evaluate this.
Greatbatch (GB) just completed a spinoff of Nuvectra (NVTR).
Recently read Greenblatts "You can be a stock market genius" which pays special attention to spinoffs and shareholders dumping the unwanted stock. Seems like this could be the case with a 1B company spinning off a 40M one.
Quote:
Nuvectra has an approved product and $75 million in cash, but is still an early stage company. After initially climbing above $11 on Monday morning, Nuvectra has gone straight down. Today alone, the stock is down over 25%, close to the day’s low of $4.25.
As near as we can tell, the stock now trades below cash, has no debt, and no new news has been released. Is this all the result of dumping by investors who woke up to find an unwanted stock in their portfolio. If so, this could be a good opportunity for those willing to take the risk. Anyone know why this is down so much?

Currently trading at a market cap of about 40M. So looks pretty good.
Form 10 can be found here:

Greenblatt talks about looking at executive compensation and seems like CEO and CFO are getting 2% en 1% "of the number of shares of Nuvectra common stock outstanding immediately following the completion of the spin-off", which should be good.
But seem like they expect to burn some cash and not immeadiately make any profit?
This is the first time I opened one of these forms, so you guys have some good pointers, lemme know
