Darling A Buy Before Earnings Reveal The Full Year Impact Of Griffin Acquisition

By Adam Muller:

I believe Darling International (DAR) is a compelling long idea for several reasons. Investors have yet to give the company full credit for their 2010 acquisition of Griffin industries. In addition, DAR’s current valuation also does not include the significant positive impact of its joint venture with Valero to construct a biodiesel facility co-located with one of Valero’s refineries.

Long Idea: Conoco Phillips Before The Phillips 66 Spinoff

By James Shell:

Six months have passed since I wrote this article in which we discussed the spinoff of the Conoco Phillips (COP) downstream and marketing group into a separate company. At the time, there were a few unknowns about the details and timing of the reorganization which have since been explained in this presentation on Conoco Phillips’ website.

At the time, I was cautious on the deal and on the refiners as a whole, as it turned out for good reason. Here is the price performance of some of the companies in this group as of the day after that announcement:

Here is the six month price chart:

The overall strategy of COP management was to spin off non-core assets, use the cash to retire debt, make strategically positive investments and “capture value”, which is a euphemism for “increase the stock price somehow”. The spinoff will occur in the second quarter of
