Culp declines over 8 percent despite market roll up
 | By Vlad Skutelnik | Macroaxis Story |
This perspective is geared to all Culp insiders as well as to investors considering exiting their position in the firm. I will focus on the cause of why it is still reasonable for the firm to generate above average margins and lots of cash flow. In spite of very conflicting forward-looking indicators, Culp displayed solid returns over the last few months and may actually be approaching a breakup point. We estimate Culp as currently undervalued. The real value is approaching 9.58 per share.
