Top 10 Undervalued Stocks To Own Right Now

tags:NFG,FLC,PRTO,LANC,GD,IEP,PTI,SFST,WHF,TCS,

Last year I wrote a series of articles on the company now known as NextGen Healthcare Inc. (NXGN). I uncovered this company in my research for undervalued stocks with strong catalysts for improvement in operating results and stock market sentiment around the company.

The primary narrative behind this company boils down to two points: They've been making money for a long time, and the business is modernizing its technology offering while being transformed under the guidance of a new executive team.

In New Leadership Marks Major Opportunity For This Stock, we reviewed the credentials and the objectives of a new management team, in Quality Systems Has Enormous Growth In The Cards we uncovered the marketing synergy behind a large acquisition recently made, and we put it all together with the company's financial history in the final article of the three-part series Quality Systems: Earnings Growth To Deliver 45%+ Returns published in April of 2017 while the stock was priced in the $14 range.

    Scale matters in the government IT business, as larger companies are better able to manage the increasingly large and complex systems customers demand, and a broader cost basis helps in putting together low-cost, competitive bids. In recent years, a wave of mergers and acquisitions has left a clear top two in the market. Industry leader Leidos Holdings (NYSE:LDOS) in 2016 bought the IT business of Lockheed Martin, while General Dynamics (NYSE:GD) vaulted to No. 2 earlier this year via its acquisition of CSRA.

    Sciple: That will be our first look at how any of these companies was affected by the shutdown. We had a lot of defense contractors reporting earnings in this past week. Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT), General Dynamics (NYSE:GD), Raytheon (NYSE:RTN), Northrop (NYSE:NOC). Of course, those numbers are not embracing a significant chunk of the government shutdown. However, they did give relatively muted guidance looking out into next year. Can you talk about that a little bit?
