Electronic calculators

$14.99 in 2009, over $200 a share today. Hard to call it a dog over even shorter terms. And they aren’t riding the AI bubble like some of the other tech companies.

They did a huge expansion on the Richardson plant less than 10 years ago (RFAB2) with production starting in 2022. It was a pain driving south from the PGBT on Alma for a couple of years. It’s next to the RFAB1 that opened in 2009.
