Reported earnings +13% on +14% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period. Rebounded in recent weeks to challenge its 52-week high after undercutting its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since noted in the 6/22/11 mid-day report - "It has shown steady annual earnings growth, but quarterly earnings and sales increases have repeatedly been reported below guidelines through the Mar '11 quarter."

Most Recent Note for AZO - 9/22/2011 12:36:01 PM
Pulling back today for a 3rd consecutive loss after steadily rallying into new high territory and getting extended from any sound base. It was noted in recent mid-day reports after testing support near its 200 DMA line in August - "Reported +28% earnings on +9% sales revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2011. Its 4 latest quarterly comparisons (C criteria) showed earnings increases above the +25% minimum guideline while sales revenues increases were in the +1-13% range and gradually accelerating. It is heavily owned by mutual funds already, yet top-rated funds owning shares rose from 1,051 in Dec '10 to 1,118 in Jun '11, a somewhat reassuring sign concerning the I criteria. While consumers are fixing their old cars and holding off on new car purchases, AZO and similar players in the auto-repair arena have shown some leadership."

Hovering near its 52-week high and bucking a negative market today. There is no remaining resistance due to overhead supply. Reported earnings +33% on +8% sales revenues for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 versus the year ago period. It had slumped near its 200 DMA line and found support near that important long-term average during its consolidation since noted in the 6/24/11 mid-day report - "Quarterly earnings increases have been above the +25% guideline in the past 6 comparisons, however sales revenues increases have been in the 11-13% range over the past year. A downturn in FY '09 earnings is a flaw concerning the A criteria."

Consolidating in tight range since 6/29/11 news it is to be acquired by Leonard Green Partners and CVC for $51.25 per shares. Unimpressive sales growth and annual earnings history (A criteria) are concerns, while its latest quarterly earnings increase of +26% on +10% sales revenues for the April '11 period was its first comparison above the +25% earnings guideline in years.

Holding its ground after reaching a new all-time high this week with volume-driven gains. Found support above its 200 DMA line during its consolidation since fundamental concerns prompted it to be dropped from the Featured Stocks list on 8/02/11. Reported earnings per share +12% on +22% sales revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 versus the year ago period, marking its 2nd consecutive quarterly comparison with earnings below the +25% guideline.

Pulling back abruptly to its 50 DMA line with 2 consecutive losses after rallying and hitting a new 52-week high this week. Sales revenues show minimal growth and its quarterly earnings were only better than the +25% guideline in 1 of the past 3 quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods.

Consolidating well above prior chart highs after reaching a new 52-week high last week following a Secondary Offering completed on 9/08/11. Recently cleared resistance in the $35 area may now act as a support level. Reported earnings +24% on +11% sales revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2011 versus the prior session. When rebounding above its 50 DMA line on 8/29/11 the mid-day report noted - "Sales revenues and earnings increases in the Jan '11 and Apr '11 quarterly comparisons versus the year ago periods were borderline or below the investment system guidelines."

Small gap down today after wedging up on light volume to hit new all-time highs this week.

Consolidating near its 50 DMA line still today, and now perched only -4.5% off its 52-week high. Prior mid-day reports noted - "Recently rallied above its 2008 high ($71.16) to reach new all-time high territory. Annual earnings (A criteria) history has been steady but estimates are calling for -15% earnings for FY '11. Quarterly comparisons show earnings increases near the +25% guideline but sub par sales growth is a concern."

Gapped down today, yet it is well up from earlier lows. Some resistance exists up through the $83 area due to overhead supply after trading higher in recent weeks. Recent mid-day reports noted - "Several leaders in the recently strong Mining - Gold/Silver/Gems group (L criteria) are perched near all-time highs with no resistance remaining to hinder their progress. Its up and down annual earnings (A criteria) history does not meet the investment system guidelines, but recent quarterly comparisons showed mostly strong sales revenues and earnings increases versus the year ago period."
