In the report, the analyst notes:

"The Company's specialty vehicles, the Cougar and the Buffalo, each have a proven track record in the battlefield. The Company's newest vehicle, the Cheetah, is designed specifically for reconnaissance, forward command and control and urban operations, and combines state-of-the-art ballistic and blast protection with the mobility of a unique light-armoured vehicle. In addition, in May 2009, the first batch of 300 new armoured Mastiff 2 and Ridgeback vehicles developed by the Company have reached Afghanistan and have now been put to work in front line operations. According to the International Committee to Ban Landmines, more than 87 countries have a significant landmine or unexploded ordnance problems, which positions FRPT well to capitalize on global landmine deactivation initiatives.

"Despite losing practically every major contest in the last few months, the Company is cash flow positive and still managed to book $371 million in sales so far this year. As of June 30, FRPT generated $13 million of free cash flow and was sitting on a $122 million cash pile. The Company has a strong international sales pipeline, solid service and replacement contracts, and zero debt on the balance sheet. Thus, with a good base business in place, the Company's long-term outlook is stable."
