#56: Butler National (BUKS)
Thursday Apr 25, 2019
Thursday Apr 25, 2019
Eric Schleien sits down with DTEJD1997 about Butler National (BUKS).
This is a nano-cap company engaged in avionics, casino gambling (owning and managing) and design services. It's a mini-conglomerate so-to-speak.
In the past few years, even with mediocre earnings, BUKS has been cash flow positive and has used that free cash flow to substantially pay down debt.
You can listen to the full analysis in this episode.
As always, I keep the identity of DTEJD1997 private and nothing in this podcast should be deemed as a buy or sell recommendation of any security. As of the time of this writing, myself, Eric Schleien, nor clients of Granite State Capital Management, LLC own any shares of BUKS. However, that could change at any time without prior notice.
